"Are you back in Swallow City?" There was a pause before the voice on the other end continued, sounding serious.
"Yes." Robert Thomson replied confidently.
"Come to my house. Immediately." David Thomson's voice was decisive. Then he hung up, showing no emotion.
Robert glanced at Emma Smith and asked, "Is it your brother?"
"Mm-hmm," Robert nodded, "Do you remember what I told you before?"
Emma said, "I know, you said the key to the Thomson Family lies in your uncle's house, the key to your uncle's house lies in your brother's house. The key to your brother's house lies in your sister-in-law—in short, if I were to get in good with your brother and sister-in-law, it would be much easier for me to enter the Thomson Family."
"You're so smart, that's exactly what I meant." Robert gave her a quick peck on the corner of her lips, "But, my brother moves too fast. I didn't even tell him I was coming back today, and he already knew?"
