Kate’s face was pale. She stammered, “I-I’m Kate…”
Alex and George looked at each other. George looked at Kate and asked, “It’s so late What are you doing here?”
Kate stammered, “I-I couldn’t sleep at night. I heard a commotion…” Her eyes darted around and landed on William. She continued, “It sounded like Young Master William’s voice. Is Young Master William alright?”
George’s eyes flashed with coldness, but he said calmly, “Nothing. You can go back first.”
Alex put away the sharp knife.
Kate heaved a sigh of relief and looked at Alex carefully. Then, she nodded repeatedly. “Okay, okay. I’ll go back now…” With that, she hurriedly left.
William asked, “Daddy, what’s going on?
George lowered his voice. “The servants are resting on the other side of the manor. IVs more than 500 meters away. Even if you shout, Kate won’t be able to hear you. And even if she has extraordinary hearing, she won’t be able to get here so quickly.”
The renovation of the Walton family manor was of good quality. The door, walls, and gla.s.s were all soundproofed. Otherwise, George wouldn’t have heard William’s shout if he weren’t handling official business in the study next door. Furthermore, William had been crying and knocking on George’s door. The rest of the Walton family didn’t wake up. This showed that the soundproofing of the Walton family’s house was very good.
“Secondly, there are so many children in the manor. How did she know that it was you?” George continued.
It was difficult to distinguish a child’s scream because it hadn’t reached the stage of voice change. Their voices sounded similar. The Walton family had a total of three boys, William, Lucas, and Harper. Just now, Kate had said that she had heard William’s voice. It was too suspicious, so George could conclude that she was lying.
William was very smart. He lowered his voice nervously. “Dad, do you mean that the person in my room was Kate?”
George nodded and called Uncle Smith, asking him to check the surveillance cameras. However, he didn’t find out that the surveillance cameras had been artificially stopped.
William felt that it was even more terrifying. Sometimes, people with strange whereabouts were even more terrifying than ghosts!
George raised his head and looked at Alex. Alex happened to look at him too. The two of them had the same plan in their eyes.
Alex nodded and raised his voice slightly. “Alright, I’ll go back first.”
George said, “Okay.”
William immediately said, “Daddy, I want to sleep with you.”
George nodded and brought William back to his room. After a while, the Walton family’s manor fell silent again. Not long after, the door on the first floor was quietly pushed open. A figure floated in silently.
Alex squatted on the roof beam and sneered. A normal person would never dare to come again after being caught on the spot once. However, this horticulturalist called Kate was either cunning to a terrifying extent or she did not have the thoughts of a normal person. Alex was more inclined to the second possibility. He felt that Kate was insane.
In the empty villa, Kate walked silently and slowly walked up the stairs. Strangely, she patrolled the entire villa like a wandering ghost in the middle of the night. Alex frowned. For some reason, he had a strange feeling.
In George’s room, William was lying on a large greenish-gray bed. The layout of George’s room was cold and gray. Everything was arranged meticulously, giving off a cold and rigid feeling.
William straightened his body and placed his hands on his stomach. George took out a thin blanket and said, ‘Go to sleep.”
The lights went out. There was no night light in George’s room, only the dim light of the manor. William looked at the window and subconsciously moved closer to his father.
After a while, William called out tentatively, “Daddy?”
George replied, “Yes.”
William heaved a sigh of relief. So he wasn’t asleep. After the scare, William didn’t really want to sleep. He stammered for a while and whispered, “Daddy, everyone says that my brother and I are test-tube babies. Our purpose in existence is to provide Auntie with a match. Is that so?
George closed his eyes.. “Who told you that?”
