Alex got up and said "don't worry Gertrude I'm going to get you out of here." "It's not like you have a choice." He just walked off as Gertrude rolled her eyes and went back to her cell.
Alex rode his bike to Aiden's house where they were supposed to meet. Aiden lives with his grandmother so she's usually asleep most of the time. He ran past his sleeping grandmother and up the stairs to his room.
"Guys! Guys! Guys!" He said panting
"Alex shut up! You're going to wake up my grandmother."
"Sorry so what is it."
"Gertrude wa-was framed."
They all gasped
"What?"
"She was framed. It wasn't her hand writing. It's not even a little bit similar."
" but who would want to frame Gertrude."
"A lot of people. Including myself. But I'm pretty sure it was Mr. Raze." Lexi said
"What do you mean?"
"He was the one who dropped off the note, and when he said he was there getting a package he was definitely lying there wasn't a package in his hand.
"He could not have done this." Alex said not believing that Mr. Raze could do such a thing because he was always so nice and genuine to everyone.
"How do you know. Just because someone acts like an angel doesn't necessarily mean they are one."
"Guys the only way we are going to know whether or not he did frame her is if we get him to write something down. So we can compare it to the handwriting on the note.
"Fine we do that tomorrow."
"Again I'm suspended."
"Ok so can you find out a way to figure out where Lacey was the night of the murder because I know for a fact she wasn't with Mrs. Raven because she was at school the whole day."
"Alright then" Said Lexi
"Well in the meantime, what did you and Gertrude talk about?"
"Ummmm....." Alex didn't know
Whether to tell them or not. But in the end he knew he couldn't lie to his friends so he told them anyway."Well Gertrude told me that the secret that she has with Lacey is that Lacey knew that she was having an affair with Charlotte Sean."
"Sarah's mother?!"
"Yeah."
They were just as shocked as he was when he found out.
