S31 25. A Trap for Sophia

Sophia’s eyebrows rose. Her heart tingled. “I don’t expect anything in return from you, Frank.” She grimaced.

“There must be something I can do for you to get the information?”

Sophia exhaled a long breath, her shoulders lowered. “Okay if you insist. Today, my package will arrive. I want to make it a surprise for Grandma. So, I need your help to sneak it into the stable tonight.”

Sophia nodded. “And I’ll tell you everything there.”

Frank’s hopes crumbled. “Why not now?”

“I promised Grandma to keep it a secret in this house. So, I don’t want to break it here. It might sound strange but I hope you understand my

Frank’s lips pursed. “Okay. Just call me when the package comes.

“Will she tell the truth tonight?” Barbara still whispered.

“I think it’s a trap,” Philip continued.

Frank pursed his lips tightly. “Yeah, it was definitely a trap.”

“What will you do then? Do you want to keep going?”

Frank spontaneously turned to where Philip appeared before. Jeremy was raising an eyebrow there, waiting for the answer to his question. Frank could not help but laugh amusedly.
