Fated To Not Just One, But Three

Chapter 229

Chapter 229: Still In Doubt

Louis’ POV

Silence.

Heavy. Suffocating. Endless silence.

The kind that presses down on your chest and makes it nearly impossible to breathe.

I glanced around the room at my brothers. They were both here... but barely.

Lennox sat slumped on the couch, eyes blank, staring into nothing. His hands rested uselessly in his lap, his expression hollow. Like life had been drained from him.

Levi was lying on the bed, his eyes locked on the ceiling. He hadn’t spoken much today... or yesterday.

And me?

I sat on the floor, my back against the wall, knees up, head resting on my arm. Just... blanking out.

It had been three days.

Three days since we found Olivia’s body.

Three days since our world shattered.

We had no clue who did it. We sent trackers everywhere, across all borders. Hoped for something—anything—that could lead us to the one responsible.

But everything came back empty.

Whoever did this... was good. Smart. Careful.

Clean.

And no matter how much pain we were in, we were still struggling with one thing—we didn’t believe it.

That body... headless, lifeless...

Could that really be Olivia?

Especially Lennox.

One moment he would be mourning, crying like his world had ended... and the next, he’d snap up, yelling, "That’s not her! That’s not Olivia!"

None of us wanted to accept it. And deep down, we couldn’t.

Even with all the signs. All the proof.

Still, we needed more.

We decided to do a DNA test. Just to make sure.

We took a strand of hair from the headless body. And another from Olivia’s old hairbrush. Sent it to the best lab we knew.

The results came in.

A perfect match.

It was Olivia.

She was gone.
