45. Nepenthes' True Identity

"Hey? Hey? Jas and Rose?" Sara calls them while rushing from the stairs. "Guess what? Nick is acquiring clues from mom about Nepenthes."

"Oh! My goodness", Rose feels exhilarated.

"That's a relief", Jas excites.

"I'm gonna cheers this propitious moment with a boosting coffee for all." Sara heads into the kitchen. She requests the cooking servants to provide the stuff to make coffee.

"Coffee?" Rose asks doubtfully.

"I too don't know exactly cause till know I haven't tasted it yet," Jas replies. 

Soon Sara comes out of the kitchen with coffee. She offers Jas and Rose to taste the coffee. They both take a sip and undergo invigorating.

"Do you like it?" Sara asks.

"Yeah!" Both drink it quickly and feel relish.

"Let me provide you another cup, but relish by enjoying the weather at the lawn," Sara advises and gives them another cup of coffee for both and moves to the upstairs.

"Hey! Rose? The lawn here looks very beautiful, you know? Let's go", Jas takes Rose to the lawn to have coffee peacefully. Their pets follow them.

Observing Sara how close with Nick's friends from aside, Mrs. Miller evny on them. Out of jealousy, she thinks to plan something on them for later. Meantime, Sara while bringing coffee to mom and me in a bit hurry, she slips and falls down. Hearing that sudden sounds and Sara's scream, I rush out of the room and help Sara. While one of the servants, cleaning and taking away the broken pieces of cups, she jerks. Mom holds her not to let her fall but loses the grip on the photograph of her brother. Sara observes it and tries to pick but with the blow of wind, it moves through the gap of banisters and reaches down in the hall. At the same time, a black shoe man stands near to that photograph. He picks it up while talking to my dad.

"Mr. Jackson?" I wonder to see him all of a sudden in our mansion.

"Bro? What's he doing here?" Sara asks me with a confused face.

"I too don't know. Let's go and check." I pat on Sara's arm and head to the downstairs and Sara follows me.

Meanwhile, "Mr. Jackson?" Max appears in front of him.

"Uh? Max? Hope this is yours'", he returns the photograph to Max.

"Haha! Let's sit and talk, Mr. Jackson." Dad taps on his shoulder and leads him to the couch.

"Hello! Mr. Jackson? How is your hand now?" I shake my hand with him. And we all sit together in the hall.

"Yeah! Little painful but it's okay", he replies.

"Uh! Mr. Jackson? Sorry. I'm about to ask, how did you get injured?" My dad asks him.

"Uhh!" I signal him to not tell the truth. "Haha! We're detectives. You know? Chasing, jumping, fighting, getting hurt.....these are very common in our field". Jackson hasn't revealed the truth. 

"By the way, what a surprise? You're....here?" I ask him in a perplexed way. 

"Haha! Nothing to worry, Nick. Your mom and I have invited him to visit our mansion once. We have met him at Billionaire's anniversary." Dad responds to my question.

"Oh? Okay. I thought something is wrong", I have expressed my opinion.

"How are you, Mr. Jackson?" Mom enters.

"Oh! Mrs. Angela? I'm fine, thank you." He replies.

"You guys, carry on. I'll bring snacks for you." Mom moves to the kitchen.
