Under the protection of my twin brother

Chapter 15

With each passing day, the investigation progressed, but along with new evidence came new questions that needed to be answered. Sarah and Tod were increasingly faced with a difficult moral choice: how to protect each other and reveal the secrets of the family without breaking the law? The twins understood that some of the methods they were considering might be controversial from the point of view of the law, and this caused them internal conflicts.

Tod, being determined and willing to do anything for his sister, was sometimes inclined to take more drastic measures. He believed that in the struggle for truth and justice, one can turn a blind eye to some legal norms. Sarah, though she shared his desire to find out the truth, insisted on acting within the law. She was afraid that if they didn't, they might find themselves trapped and unable to escape.

The twins often discussed their concerns and doubts in the nooks and crannies of the estate, where no one could overhear them. Tod recognized that Sarah was right, but at the same time he couldn't help thinking that the law was sometimes too weak to protect them from people like Harvey Morgan and Evelyn. Sarah, for her part, understood her brother's determination, but she didn't want him to sacrifice his future for the sake of their common cause.

One day, while discussing new evidence they had received from Margaret Taylor and Emily Wilson, Tod came up with a plan that involved breaking the law. He wanted to break into Harvey Morgan's office and find documents that might shed light on his shady dealings. Sarah immediately objected, pointing out the risks and possible consequences.

Tod and Sarah argued for a long time, weighing the pros and cons. Tod told his sister that this was the only way to get the necessary evidence, and Sarah insisted on finding legal ways. In the end, they decided to turn to Michael Stone for advice.

Michael listened carefully to their plan and expressed serious concerns about its legality. He suggested alternative ways of obtaining information that would not violate the law. For example, he could use his professional connections to gain access to some data or set up surveillance of Harvey Morgan.

Sarah and Tod agreed with Michael's reasoning and decided to follow his advice. They understood that his experience and knowledge could be invaluable in their investigation. Together, they developed a new action plan that took into account all possible risks and sought to avoid violating the law.

Meanwhile, Evelyn and Harvey Morgan were not idle. They sensed that the twins were getting closer to a solution, and began to take their own steps to prevent them. Evelyn tried to turn the servants against Sarah and Tod, and Harvey increased the pressure on others to find out where the twins were getting their information.

Sarah and Tod knew that the enemy was not asleep, and they tried to act as carefully as possible. They continued to collect evidence, interview witnesses, and analyze the information they received. Each step required not only logical thinking, but also moral fortitude.

One evening, when Sarah and Tod were meeting again to discuss the investigation, Tod confessed to his sister that it was hard for him to control his impulses and not act decisively, even if it was against the law. Sarah replied that she understood his feelings, but reminded him of the importance of preserving honor and dignity in their struggle. She said that a victory achieved through dishonest means would not be a real victory for them.

These words sunk deep into Tod's soul. He realized that his sister was right, and promised himself to try to find legitimate ways to solve problems. Together, they continued the investigation, trying to adhere to moral principles and legal norms.

As the days passed, the twins got closer and closer to solving the mysteries surrounding their family. They faced new challenges and dangers, but each time they found the strength to go forward. Love and loyalty to each other, as well as the desire for justice, helped them overcome all obstacles.

However, each new step forward was accompanied by uneasy premonitions. Sarah and Tod knew that the most dangerous trials might still be ahead of them. They knew that Harvey Morgan and Evelyn would stop at nothing to keep their secrets. But the twins were prepared for this. They were willing to fight to the end to find out the truth and protect each other.

So Sarah and Tod continued their journey, full of dangers and challenges. They knew that new moral choices and difficult decisions were ahead of them, but they were confident that together they could overcome any difficulties. Their love and loyalty to each other were stronger than any threats and dangers. They believed that truth would prevail and justice would be restored.

The atmosphere in the Radrigies Estate was becoming increasingly tense. With each passing day, the conflicts between Evelyn and the twins escalated. Her stepmother could no longer hide her true feelings and was increasingly showing annoyance and anger towards Sarah and Tod. The twins, in turn, were not going to give in and continued to defend their rights and beliefs.

Evelyn felt that her position in the family was under threat. As she watched Sarah and Tod grow more confident and determined, she knew that they would not stop until they had discovered all the secrets hidden in the past. The stepmother realized that the twins were a serious danger to her, and began to develop new plans to neutralize their influence.

Sarah and Tod also knew that Evelyn would stop at nothing to protect her interests. They saw their stepmother trying to turn the servants against them, spreading gossip and trying to undermine their authority in the manor. The twins decided not to succumb to provocations, but at the same time not to weaken their positions in the investigation.

One day, over lunch, the tension reached a climax. Evelyn once again expressed her dissatisfaction with the behavior of Sarah and Tod. She accused them of undermining the family's foundations and preventing her from running the estate. Sarah could not contain her emotions and responded to her stepmother with harsh words, pointing out her insincerity and ulterior motives. Tod supported his sister, and soon a heated argument broke out between the parties.

The words were getting tougher, and the atmosphere at the table was heating up to the limit. Evelyn, feeling that she was losing control of the situation, got personal and accused the twins of being ungrateful and selfish. Sarah and Tod did not remain in debt and reminded her stepmother of her questionable actions and suspicious behavior.

The conflict had reached such a pitch that it seemed as if one more word could be the cause of a serious scandal. At that moment, Michael Stone entered the dining room, having come to discuss new evidence with the twins. Seeing the heated situation, he tried to calm the parties down, but his words only made the situation worse.

Evelyn, feeling that she was losing a verbal duel, abruptly got up from the table and said that she did not intend to tolerate such an attitude any longer. She threatened Sarah and Tod with serious consequences if they didn't stop their investigations and stop interfering in the estate's affairs. The twins replied that they were not going to back down and would go all the way.

After this incident, the atmosphere in the manor became even more heavy. Evelyn began to act more forcefully and aggressively. She tried to restrict Sarah and Tod's freedom of movement, monitor their interactions with other people, and even hired a private investigator to keep an eye on the twins.

Sarah and Tod, for their part, were not going to give up. They continued to gather evidence, analyze the information they received, and search for allies. Emily Wilson and Margaret Taylor continued to help them, providing valuable information and moral support.

The twins knew that the conflict with Evelyn had reached a critical point and that new challenges lay ahead. They knew that their stepmother would stop at nothing to keep their secrets, and they prepared for the most unexpected turns of events.

Tod was beginning to think about how dangerous their situation was, and he was worried about his sister. He knew that Evelyn was capable of desperate actions, and he tried to protect Sarah from possible threats. Sarah, in turn, supported her brother and convinced him that they should continue to investigate, no matter what.

As the days passed, the tension in the manor only grew. The servants whispered to each other, discussing the conflict between the twins and Evelyn. Some sympathized with Sarah and Tod, while others supported their stepmother, seeing the twins as a threat to the established order.

Nevertheless, Sarah and Tod did not lose hope that they would be able to solve the family's secrets and restore justice. They believed in their own strength and that love and devotion to each other would help them overcome any difficulties.

Each day brought new challenges and dangers, but the twins were prepared for them. They knew the truth was close at hand, and they were determined to find out, despite the opposition of Evelyn and other detractors.

So the tension between the twins and their stepmother grew, bringing the climax of the conflict closer. Sarah and Tod knew that the most difficult challenges lay ahead, but they were prepared for them, because the future of their family and the honor of their parents were at stake. Their love and devotion to each other were stronger than any obstacles, and they believed that they could overcome all difficulties on the path to the truth.
