Betty's voice was laced with anger as she gasped for air and placed her hand on her head."I saw this coming from a mile away," she exclaimed. "It's all because of you!

"Allow me to elucidate," began Mr Arnold, capturing the attention of the attentive gathering. "Sylvester senior, you see, was not merely an acquaintance, but a cherished companion who shared a long history with us—myself, Mr Montillo, and Mr Castle. In days gone by, our camaraderie knew no bounds, for we were inseparable in our endeavours. Our bond extended so far that we even partook in the most mundane activities together, such as sharing the same showers." Mr. Arnold paused momentarily, before resuming his narrative."Sylvester, in particular, was the epitome of brilliance among us, the mastermind behind every venture we embarked upon.

With a gentle yet pointed tone, he spoke, "It seems even your own mother may have reservations about the decision you've made." Though Betty attempted to maintain a facade of composure, her face betrayed her true emotions.In an effort to assuage the collective apprehension, Philip interjected, "Let us all take a moment to relax.
