Chapter 78

Chapter 78 Molly’s arms were both trapped by them. She glanced at the room upstairs, looking helpless. It left her no choice but to compromise. “Okay then! All three of you are the same. When can I ever stop worrying about you guys?”

She turned around and went down the stairs after saying that.

The two little ones put on a smile, and their tiny cheeks bulged. They were relieved after seeing that their mommy had given up on interrupting their brother. They only let her go by then.

So, Molly went to have some tea with his grandfather in the yard, and they played chess together.

Grandpa Dave laughed as he said, “Just let them do whatever they want for occasionally. Alex is a smart kid. I’m sure that he won’t do anything silly.” Molly knew better than everybody else that Alex was the one that worried her the least, so she nodded and agreed.

Wa After some time, Grandpa Dave got sleepy, and his tiredness could be seen on his face. “Let’s end the game here for today. I need to go to bed now.” He held his knees and stood up from the wicker chair as he said that before walking toward his room.

Dale followed closely behind him. Molly kept everything, and she prepared to go for a shower too. She took her clothes and went into the bathroom.

Pop! She heard a pop sound as soon as she removed all her clothes. Her surroundings went into complete darkness suddenly, and she was shocked. She then realized that her house was experiencing a blackout. But why would this happen suddenly?

Molly put her clothes back on and walked out of her room in the dark. She shouted, “Alex, Ben, Claudia!”

Three of them ran to her immediately and said, “Mommy, we have no idea why, but the house lost power suddenly.”

Alex chimed in, “I looked out the window and found out we’re the only house experiencing a blackout.

“Mommy, I’m scared.” Claudia hugged her legs and said adorably.

Molly’s eyes were still struggling to adjust themselves to the sudden darkness. After some time, she can finally see the three little one’s silhouettes with the help of light from outside the window. She hugged three of them into their arms and said, “It’s okay.

Mommy’s here. I’ll go have a look if we’re just tripping.”

She calmed herself down very quickly.

“No, Mommy! I found out that this mansion was controlled by a computer system when we moved in. I’m sure that something went wrong. Why don’t we go next door and ask for Uncle Sean’s help?” Alex persuaded.

Molly hesitated for a second, but she was not feeling suspicious at all. So, she agreed with Alex since she thought that she had no other choice. “I guess we could only do that now.” A cunning look shined across the triplets’

eyes in the dark.

‘Our plan worked!’

Molly did not rush to leave but went to her grandfather’s room first. She knocked on the door softly. Knock Knock Dale opened the door. “The house is going through a blackout. I’m planning to bring my kids over next door to see what’s going on. How’s grandpa? Molly asked. Dale said softly, “Mr. May Sr. slept before it happened. He’s just fine.” Molly was relieved after he heard that. “Mr. Philip, you should rest early too then.” Afterward, she brought the triplets to the next door and pressed the doorbell.

Tony opened the door. He thought Molly was here to treat his boss. “Dr. May, are you ready for the treatment?”

“Nope, but there’s no power supply in my house,” Molly said. At that moment, Tony was very surprised. “A blackout? This isn’t right! Our house is doing just fine. Our houses are operating on the same system.”

“I’m not too sure, but there is just no electric supply at my house. Mr. Hill, why don’t you go over there and have a look at it for me?” Molly did not know much about these things, so she had no idea what was going on. Sean heard that, and he said, “Tony, go have a look at the laptop.” Tony made a few clicks on the laptop, and he really found something fishy going on. He then brought the laptop to Sean. ‘As expected!’ Sean could also tell that their security systems were broken up into two separate ones. He was surprised. It looked like that person from this morning had changed his target to the house next door after being defeated over here.
