Dave got home that evening.

On entering the Mansion, she saw Henry and Stella speaking with Jane.

She could already guess what they were talking about.

Henry and Stella were reporting Dave to his wife, Jane.

They knew that Dave always did what his wife said. The old Dave always listened to his wife Luke a God.

So they always used his wife to get to him.

And so they wanted to use that method. They were reporting to Jane what Dave did.

Dave overheard a bit of what they said. He was listening from the side.

"I said your husband beat me up! Can't you see the bruises?!" Henry snapped, angrily.

Jane was still in denial! She doubted that Dave would ever do that.

Dave was a cripple and weak! That was what Jane knew about him.

He was always useless to her. So she didn't think he would even have the strength and courage to fight someone like Henry.

Henry was pissed "Are you calling me a fool or what? I tol

If the percentage is up it means she holds a good percentage of you][But if it goes low, it means her likeability towards you is low...]Dave slowly nodded. Now he understood better. And if he recalled clearly, the percentage had dropped the last time they met. Which means that she didn't really like him now. Her likeability of him was low.And Dave could guess it was because of the fact that she found out his secret - He could walk."She's probably still disappointed in me about that" He said.Dave now understood what the percentage meant.

    Everyone paused. Shocked and curious. Staring at Henry and Stella.Dave looked at Stella. Evidence? Video? Dave thought about what they could have."A video?" Grandma repeated "You really have a video to prove what you're saying?" Stella nodded proudly "Yes. It was caught on camera. A video to show this crippled man hurt your grandson"Now everyone was curious to see this video."Show it to us now" Mrs Beth demanded.Dave sat there. Calm as always. He was panicking.But he casually watched as Stella got up with his husband and walked towards Grandma.Mrs and Mr Beth had also gotten up to take a look at the video Stella was going to play on the tablet.Dave thought quickly.There certainly wasn't a camera in the room where he was standing up and beating the drunk Henry up. So he was safe from that But he couldn't be sure if there was a camera in the living room.So he could conclude that the video Stella was talking about was the one taken in the Video.Although he didn't explicitly

I didn't arrive when they were being beaten"Ray sighed, disappointed "So it means someone really beat them up""Yes. Because when I left someone was standing there. But I didn't get to see his face. I had to leave immediately""Someone was standing... Who could it possibly be" Jane said "It's definitely not that crippled bastard""Someone must be on their side.
