Chapter 138

It was an especially noisy night.

The incessant banging sounds from the construction kept the nearby dogs awake, and they ended up dragging their doghouses away in the middle of the night.

Tinley sat at the desk, watching the surveillance video from the USB drive over and over again

Upon hearing the butler’s words, Ian couldn’t manage a smile. He felt uncomfortable.

His obedient little nephew hadn’t even gotten enough time with him yet.
