Chapter 455 Come Back Alive

The kitchen at the Lockhart Mansion caught fire, prompting a visit from the fire department. The incident made the news, with reports noting that thankfully, no one was injured.

No lives were lost, but the fire happened-giving Nancy something to report back. With his obsessive and suspicious nature, Patrick would find some peace of mind.

Oscar stayed at Kelly's until the fire was completely extinguished before he left. Cecil refused to leave, saying the mansion was spacious.

Kelly looked at Cecil. "Instant noodles or noodle snacks, pick one."

Cecil eyed Kelly. "Can't you order takeout?"

Kelly nodded. "I can, but only enough for myself."

Cecil nodded. "Fine, then you can skip eating and give it to me."

"Zev will be sneaking back later, so I need to save it for him," Kelly said, sounding apologetic.

"Take it or leave it," Kelly said, no longer afraid of Cecil. The threats and

intimidation from Cecil earlier were now backfire territory.

Cecil recognized that Kelly was someone who didn't forgive easily.

Just as the takeout arrived, Zev climbed through the backyard window. "Honey, the house caught fire. Are you alright?"

Zev immediately hugged Kelly, inspecting her from head to toe.

"Don't ask if you've already sent me," Cecil reminded Zev. "There's no point asking that now."

Zev eyed Cecil. "Why are you still here? Leave immediately."

"It's so comfy here. That old house is too quiet, it's eerie. I want to stay here," Cecil bragged, lounging comfortably.
