Carter reached out, his hand softly brushing my hair. He spoke in a calming tone, "Chloe, I understand your frustration and anger. If force can't solve this, all we can do is wait for things to unfold. Anna must have planned everything carefully." I stared ahead, confused. "So, Ethan... died for nothing?"

The memory of that dream lingered, bringing a wave of regret. He had his faults, but he didn't deserve to die.

"Even though Anna Jured him in, she had a solid reason for her actions. With Ashley as a witness, even though Nelson found her story suspicious, without proof, they had no choice but to let her go. Still, Ethan's death wasn't pointless." 1 glanced up at him. "What have you discovered?"

"Everything started with Sadie. She was behind the plan to kill Anna. The real question is, who tipped off the details? That's what led me to Mr. Crow." Mr. Crow?"

My earlier doubts were confirmed, and the realization orna's cold-heartedness still left me stunned. "This woman is merciless!"

"If you're thinking of helping Sadie, we still have time to take action."

"Help?"

I let out a bitter laugh. "Do you know how Zoey died? She was slowly driven to her end by Sadie. This body I'm in was hers, and I promised her I'd get justice."

As my emotions started to flare, Carter quickly pulled me into a hug, trying to calm me down. "Alright, I won't interfere, just don't get upset."

I felt a bit sheepish. "Carter, do you think I'm a child?"

"Chloe, we haven't spent much time together over the years, but I've always kept an eye on you. I know life at the Sanders hasn't been easy, and you've learned to bear loneliness and darkness on your own. But things are different now. You have me." He gently lifted my chin, forcing me to look into his deep, serious eyes.

"You can be angry with me, be playful, ask for things. To me, you'll always be that carefree little girl. As for the storms, let me protect you from them."

'Carl..."

No woman could remain unmoved by such words.
