Chương 570: Chapter 571: Failure to locate text message correspondence

"Ah, you must be Adam Spencer," A butler who had opened the mansion's front door said after Adam knocked.

"That's correct," Adam replied.

"My name is Benson. Lady Flemming informed us of your imminent arrival. Please come in," Benson said while stepping aside and making a gesture of inviting them in.

"Thank you," Adam said politely as he entered the mansion with the two girls still clinging to an arm each.

"Lady Flemming instructed us to hand over young master Roberts phone," Benson said as he indicated a maid who had approached them while carrying a phone on a tray. [StealthAssassin9 (Earth): Woooow, check out the hot maid.] [Celebrityhunter69 (Earth): Fucking pervert.]"How fancy," Stacey remarked as she let go of Adams arm, as she had been holding the one that his uniband was attached to. [[Scanning.]] Spector announced after Adam waved his uniband over the phone. [[Detected secure messaging app.]] [[Accessing secure messaging app.]] [[Access acquired.]] [[Failure to locate text message correspondence with Nada Keita.]]"Oh!" Adam said in surprise.

"What's wrong?" Stacey asked.

"It's gone? Where did it go? Is it a cover-up, a cover-up?" Tephe asked excitedly as she had heard Spector's announcements via her earring. [[ALERT.]] [1000yearsofdeath (Earth): Wait, wait. What's this? The streamers' AI only ever says ALERT when something interesting is about to happen. Kekeke.] [[Evidence of a recently deleted text message corospondence detected in the apps programing.]] [[Atempting to recover deleted corospondence.]] [Superhearofangirl (Earth): Wait, someone deleted the message history?] [Animefangirl (Earth): Do you think it was Robert Flemming himself?] [Celebrityhunter69 (Earth): Could be if he got wind of people coming for him.] [OfficialMuriel (Aqua Primus): Maybe he got someone else to do it for him?] [OfficialKasumi (Aqua Primus): That seems possible and more likely.]"It seems that the message history between Robert Flemming and Nada Keita has been deleted, though Spector is attempting to restore it," Adam replied.

"Who do you think deleted it?" Stacey asked in surprise.

"Maybe that Robert guy himself?" Tephe suggested.

"Maybe, but I think he would only do that if he found out that the rest of his family was coming for him," Stacey replied thoughtfully before adding, "It's more likely to be one of those that are watching over him."

"Are you suggesting someone here tampered with young master Roberts phone without Lady Flemming's permission?" Benson asked with a frown.

"That's exactly what I'm suggesting, or perhaps your Lady Flemming secretly ordered this as a way to try and protect her grandson," Stacey retorted.

"Watch your mouth bitch!" The maid suddenly said before she pulled out a knife from within her maid's outfit and stabbed towards Stacey.

"EMMA!" Benson shouted as Adam moved to protect Stacey. However, before he could reach her, a long leg shot out from Adam's other side and kicked the maid called Emma in the chest, causing her to be lifted off the ground before she rocketed across the mansion's entry hall and crashed into the wall opposite. This story has been taken without authorization. Report any sightings.

Adam, Stacey and Benson stared in shock at Emma, the maid who was bleeding heavily and appeared to be unconscious as she remained lodged in the wall due to the severe impact. The three of them slowly turned their heads to look at Tephe, who was slowly lowering her outstretched leg before she flung her long, white hair over her shoulder and said with a huff, "Think I will let you attack one of my future sisters, think again." [All of chat: 😱] [Gunlovergirl (Earth): Oh hell yeah! 📣] [Animefangirl (Earth): The way she sent the maid flying across the hallway with a single kick, that was so Anime.] [Whitehorn (Darah 5): That's a dragon's strength for you.] [Superhearofangirl (Earth): She's like a superhero.] [Phoenixempress (Fenix Nest): That's my goddaughter. HAHAHAHA.] [HackerSu (Trillion): Good job protecting Stace little Tephe.] [Lizziethetruepower (Palaxia): You know she's older than you, right?] [HackerSu (Trillion): Meh. 🤷] [LadyErkath (Alastor): I'm impressed she reacted so quickly.] [1000yearsofdeath (Earth): Look at their stunned faces. Kekeke.]"Tephe!" Stacey remarked in surprise before adding, "Thank you."

"It's fine, I'm sure you could have handled her," Tephe replied.

"True," Stacey nodded before smiling and adding, "But I'm still grateful that you went out of your way to protect me."

"As am I," Adam said before reaching out to stroke Tephe's hair while saying, "Thank you, Tephe."

"Hehe," Tephe giggled happily as she snuggled even closer to Adam.

"My apologies, young lady," Benson suddenly said as he bowed to Stacey.

"It wasn't your doing, so why are you apologising?" Stacey asked.

"As the butler of this house, I am in charge of all the staff that work here and serve the Flemming family. Emma acting out on her own not only brings shame on herself but also on me and the Flemming family as a whole and shows how poorly trained she actually was," Benson explained.

"Can you tell us why she even attacked Stacey?" Adam asked with a frown.

"Most likely out of a desire to protect Lady Flemming's honour as the young miss here slandered her name," Benson answered before adding, "I will be sure to lecture her on this matter."

"You think she still gets to live after trying to kill me?" Stacey asked with a frown. [Lizziethetruepower (Palaxia): Oh shit, here we go.] [HackerSu (Trillion): Stace is pissed.] [Gunlovergirl (Earth): Do it, do it.]"Pardon?" Benson replied in a concerned tone. Stacey, however, didn't reply and instead took out her blaster while turning towards Emma, where she then raised it towards her and pulled the trigger.

A red blasterbolt shot out and struck Emma square in the chest before she suddenly disintegrated into nothing, leaving only an Emma-shaped recess in the wall. [Gunlovergirl (Earth): THAT'S WHAT I'M FUCKING TALKING ABOUT!] [StealthAssassin9 (Earth): Aww, that maid was hot, what a waste.]"Emma!" Benson said in shock as he witnessed her disappear into nothing.

"Where can we find Robert?" Adam asked in a tone of voice that was far less polite than the one he had used when they had first arrived.

"Please, please follow me," Benson replied as professionally as he could while he glanced at Stacey warily before leading them further into the mansion. [[Text message correspondence with Nada Keita restored and matches the correspondence retrieved from Nada Keita.]] [[No other text message correspondence regarding Nada Keita discovered.]] [MercheadAnderson (Palaxia): Seems that's the end of it.] [DeverinianLordMalacoss (Deverinian 9): Seems so.] [Gunlovergirl (Earth): Damn it, that's disappointing.] [Tessisdabest (Imperial Down): They still need to find out who deleted the correspondence.] [Gunlovergirl (Earth): True.] [MercheadAnderson (Palaxia): Be kinda lame if it turns out that it was that maid who deleted the message correspondence.] [DeverinianLordMalacoss (Deverinian 9): Agreed.]"So now we need to find out who deleted those messages?" Tephe asked.

"I take it Spector managed to restore the deleted message?" Stacey asked curiously.

"Yup, it seems Robert wasn't working with anyone else like Nada was," Tephe replied.

"I guess he really was a loveblind fool and had no idea he was being used by Nada," Adam added.

"Well, not all men can be as lucky with women as you, my love," Stacey said with a smile as she once again hooked her arm through Adam's free one.

"I hope you know how lucky you are," Tephe teased, and although Stacey glanced at her, she surprisingly didn't complain this time.

"I'm aware that I'm incredibly lucky," Adam replied, making Stacey smile even more as she pulled his arm deeper into her cleavage. {Spector. Access the security system and see if you can determine who might have deleted the message correspondence.} Adam thought as he noticed a security camera watching them while they followed Benson. [[Affirmative.]] [[Accessing now.]]"He's being held upstairs?" Stacey asked with a frown.

"Where did you expect the young master to be held?" Benson asked in return.

"The basement? I mean, he is a traitor to your family," Stacey replied.

"Traitor?" Benson asked in confusion before adding calmly, "I know nothing of that and young master Robert is still a member of the Flemming family and Lady Flemming's grandson."

"Not for much longer," Tephe stated happily and as Benson looked back and saw the evil smirk on her face, he decided it was better not to ask what she meant. [[Footage located.]] Spector suddenly announced before a holographic screen appeared over Adam's uniband, causing him to raise the lower part of his arm and wrist so that he could view it while Stacey continued to hug the upper part and focused on the screen along with Tephe.

Benson noticed that the trio had stopped following him and turned back to see them all staring at something that was floating over Adam's wrist, causing him to ask in shock, "What's that?" The trio, however, ignored his question as they watched the mansion security footage that showed a man using Robert's phone and as Spector zoomed the footage in on the phone's display and enhanced it, they saw the guard deleting the message correspondence.

After the footage restarted, Adam paused it on the moment where it showed the man's face before looking at Benson and asking, "Who's this?"
