Quests from The Panic Room: House of Secrets

Blackmail

Leonard: As it turned out, the chimney was great for eavesdropping. But to hear all the phrases, I imagined the room and the people in it. They seemed so close... We need to go downstairs and find the room with a fireplace where the conversation took place. It will help me remember.

Task: Go through the children's room in the ghosts mode.

Lynette: You owe me a large sum of money, Caleb. But instead of asking me for an extension, you went upstairs and defiled my stepdaughter. How should I treat you now?

Caleb: Madam, it was a misunderstanding...

Lynette: Misunderstanding, you say? Should I tell your father about this "misunderstanding"?

Caleb: No, ma'am.

Lynette: Why? You obviously do not suppose that he will review his will because of such a minor matter as losing a fortune and assaulting his late friend's daughter.

Caleb clenched his fists and glared at Lynette, but said nothing.

Lynette: Here is my proposal. You will marry my stepdaughter and write out a receipt that the debt will be paid as soon as you become the heir. With interest, of course. For that, I promise that, should Sir Walford ask any questions, I will say that I have no quarrel with you.

Caleb: This is blackmail! Marry her, Lynette? My father would never approve of such a marriage...

Lynette: Why not? Marie is the daughter of the late Sir Samuel O'Leary, a Knight of the Garter and his long-time friend. I am certain this will be enough for your father...

Caleb: I think I need a drink...

You helped Leonard. You received some points of freedom and some tokens.

Leonard: The conversation stopped. At least there was only the sound of wind in the chimney. Perhaps they moved to another room?
