The truth they say is bitter. But this was a sweet one. A sweet truth. It was sweet because now, I have found the rat.
"John, so you're saying Mrs Grace told you that the Gbesinros visited her a day before we did?", I asked.
A little recap. After my meeting with Barrister Martins and Detective Debbie, I had a really long series of thoughts as to whom the rat could be.
While Amanda and I prepared dinner that evening, I decided to tell her everything. Would you believe me if I said it went well?
"There's something I must tell you sis"
"Okay. Thank God you've decided to talk. You've been too quiet since you came back home. So what is it?"
"Well, it's more like a confession actually. I lied to you"
"About what?"
"About staying out of Madam Rose's case. I also lied about visiting some old friends"
"Okay"
"Huh? Okay? Aren't you mad at me or something?"
"No"
"Really? Are you sure?"
"Yeah. I knew you would never listen to me"
