Just as Rebecca Smith was about to answer these two words, she suddenly got startled!
This little rascal was waiting for her here!
Before anyone in the room could express their astonishment, she quickly corrected herself: "What does it has to do with whether I've climbed a ladder or whether I wore gloves?"
Jose had stopped crying and turned his head, looking at Rebecca Smith with the gaze sharp as a knife.
Victoria, along with Father Clegg and Mrs. Clegg, gradually caught on.
While everyone was about to doze off, Michael had completed a brilliant act of inducing confession!
He had carried on asking seemingly irrelevant and widely known details about the case. Taking advantage of his child status and talkative nature, he managed to let Rebecca Smith relax her guard just enough for him to casually throw a crucial question.
Even the smartest person can fall straight into the trap once they start mechanically responding in an off-guard state.
