Chapter 16

Mavis gave Timothy a puzzled look and thought for a moment before replying, "I think it was last year that Uncle Hugh had it installed. Why do you ask?"

Mavis remained skeptical but didn't press further. After a moment, she asked, "By the way, you mentioned that my grandfather was poisoned. If you can identify the toxin, you must know its origin too. Where did it come from?"

"That poison is common along the northern border. Ask your grandfather if he's ever been there. If not, then someone close to him must have poisoned him," Timothy explained.

"What?" Mavis was horrified. "Someone close to him?"

"That's right," Timothy said seriously. "Also, don't make a big deal out of this when you get back. Ask him privately."
