Winnie then grabbed a blanket and covered Mason with it as she lamented, “He was really excited when he headed out. I’ve known him for so long, and yet, that was the first time I’ve seen him look so happy. Who would’ve thought he’d end up like this…”

Josiah let out a sigh. “There simply is no telling what could happen next in life. Harold truly is pure evil! He will pay dearly for what he did!”

“Yeah! He will!” Winnie muttered through clenched teeth.

“Should we go look for Greta now?” Josiah asked.

Xavier slowed the car down and glanced at them in the rear-view mirror as he replied, “Let’s hand Mason over to the police.”

“Okay. But I don’t have a way to contact Greta, so we’ll have to go through Officer Clark,” Winnie said as she sat up straight in her seat.

“All right, then. We’ll go see Officer Clark.”

With that, Xavier drove to the Special Task Force office where they met Greta the other day.

After explaining their reasons for dropping by, they received a call from James and were told to wait in a conference room.

About twenty minutes later, Greta finally arrived.

She furrowed her brows when she entered the conference room and saw the blood on Winnie’s and Josiah’s clothes.

“Captain Clark told me you guys ran into some trouble. What happened to you two? Why are you both injured? How severe are your wounds?” she asked worriedly.

Realizing that Greta had gotten the wrong idea, Winnie explained, “We’re not injured, Greta. This isn’t our blood. It’s Mason’s. Something really bad happened to him—”

“Is he still alive?” Greta demanded anxiously before Winnie could finish.

“I’m sorry. We tried our best,” Winnie replied with a solemn expression.

Greta froze even though she kind of saw it coming.

They’d be in a hospital if Mason were still alive. The fact that they’re here suggests that he’s most likely dead…
