"Insiders?!" Margaret almost jumped up. "Who? Who could it be? There’s a thief in our family. We must find it out!"
While she spoke, she looked around as if she wanted to find out who the insider was.
"Mom, don't get agitated. This thief did not want money or our life, so he must be looking for something." Ralph thought for a while and said, "What do you think it could be?"
Margaret frowned and thought for a while. She seemed to think of something. "You mean..."
Before she could speak, she stopped abruptly when she saw Ralph's eyes. "I'm not the thief.
How should I know what he is looking for?"
Then she looked at Alexander unhappily. "Alex, you can’t ignore us when such a big incident happened to the Russell family. It would destroy our reputation. You must find this thief, and don't let him go easily! "
"Grandma, are you sure you haven’t lost anything important?"
Alexander saw everything in Ralph’s eyes when they exchanged looks. He knew that they had something to say.
It was normal. No one treated him as a family except for his grandpa. They always had their little secrets. They could tell anyone in this family except for him.
Of course, he was not interested in their little secrets either.
However, he was worried when he heard Edward report that the Light-Shadow Killers had sneaked into the mansion. He originally wanted to rush over overnight. Unexpectedly, they crept in and out silently.
