Chapter 69 Time Snapshot

Alistair hadn't come unprepared. He wouldn't have shown up to stir things up without being absolutely certain of his position.

Liam believed that since the incident happened six years ago, even if Alistair discovered the truth, they could just deny everything and pretend nothing happened if they stuck to their story. He was confident Alistair couldn't find any evidence.

The timing was also suspicious. Rebecca had approached Liam immediately after he "hit someone". Once Alistair grew up and developed some critical thinking skills, he naturally started questioning the whole situation.

Liam and Celeste were bold enough to lie so blatantly because they weren't worried about eventually being exposed. Deep down, they believed their son was obedient and timid, a pushover who wouldn't question them. They were confident that with their silver tongues, they could explain away any inconsistencies.

What they never anticipated was that Alistair would uncover the truth about something that happened six years ago.
