Even after Her Death by Rita Bond

Chapter 255 Torn Between Paths

The moment I heard the name, Anna, my heart clenched. What's her game this time? Could it be that something happened to Grandmal

If she's targeting the Sanders, there's no way she'd spare Grandma either.

I panicked. Anna had already come dangerously close in harming Grandma before.

Carter Jung up the phone and quickly reassured me, seeing the worry on my face. "Don't worry, Grandma's fine. If she dares touch her, I'll catch her red-handed. The hospital is covered in cameras, she's not foolish enough to risk it" "Then what happened?"

"She didn't return to the Hudsons residence. Instead, she drove to the seaside. The route she's taking seems unusual. She may be meeting someone from her organization

We'd been holding back for so long, waiting for a chance to uncover the people behind her.

Anna wasn't stupid-she knew the police were suspicious of her. She hadn't been to that repair shop even once lately,

Now, though, she was headed to the coast, which was definitely strange..

"Carter, can we follow her from a distance just to see?"

"Alright, as long as you don't act impulsively."

""Got it."

We hurried to catch up. I couldn't help but imagine the person behind Anna and what kind of figure the might have. Were they someone as old as Grandma, with decades of entanglement with the Sanders? What kind of face could match such malevolence?

A bodyguard joined us. "She's being cautious-we can't follow too closely."

"Where is she now?"

"She went into a café."

It was close to the New Year, and the area was packed with tourists. The seaside had set up A vibrant night market, bustling with activity. Shops were crammed with customers, and the streets were alive. Carter noticed my eagerness and said firmly, "No matter what, we can't show ourselves."
