Chapter 228: Chapter 225: The Case
"Nonsense! Blatant lies!"
The security guard’s voice suddenly rose, clearly even more agitated than before.
"Ha? You’re flustered!"
The other old man stood with his hands on his hips, a fan tucked at his side, looking particularly pleased with himself with his chin raised.
Elliana assured, she really wasn’t staying just for the show. With the situation looking like this, she stayed in case she could help later.
"Elliana."
Just then, Phoebe Lyle arrived and, seeing Elliana watching the two old men argue at the door, said, "It’s very common, it’ll be over soon."
At Phoebe’s home, the smell of cats hit her in the face!
But it wasn’t the unpleasant kind of cat odor, rather the smell only close to kittens could bring.
As she glanced around, she saw a bunch of furry creatures fleeing in all directions, some burrowing under the sofa, others running into different rooms.
Only one perched on the edge of the sofa like a seasoned old dog, its relaxed eyes reflecting disdain.
Upon entering, a few strands of cat hair floated in the air, slowly landing on Norman Bennett’s shoulder.
Due to the white cat hair, it was particularly conspicuous on his gray, neatly pressed loose shirt.
"Kitties~ come out~" Phoebe called softly, and all the hiding kittens came out, tentatively inspecting the new stranger before cautiously approaching.
Perhaps they caught a scent, as they all moved towards the man, some rubbing their heads against his legs, others tumbling at his feet.
"Give me the stuff."
Phoebe said and took the items from Norman’s hands, while Norman seemed frozen in place, motionless.
His already cold features seemed even more detached without any expression.
