Carter, who had suddenly appeared, immediately turned around after speaking.

Madeline and Jeremy exchanged glances and, with tacit understanding, strode forward.

Shortly after, Carter arrived in front of the house that had caught fire the previous night.

Before the accident, he had indeed restricted Cathy and Adam’s movements, enforcing them to remain in this house.

Staring at the burnt ruins before her, Madeline could not help thinking about the fire that had taken place at Montgomery Manor.

During that time, the most painful part of the situation had been her believing Jeremy to be the one who set the fire. Of course, it was equally painful when she had thought that her biological parents were killed in that fire.
