True Tycoon Her Empire, Her Rules

Chapter 216

Winnie’s tweet sent a shiver down the spines of her followers the moment it hit the digital waves. And for good reason, the last person she’d publicly accused of having blood on their hands was Naylor, and he had the lives of five souls weighing on his conscience.

Now, she was calling out the perp who’d gone after a child with a blade, saying he was steeped in blood debts, and not just a few.

“My God, could this be the work of a serial killer?”

Panic swept through the online community at the speed of light. Within minutes, the tweet had been shared over ten million times, and Winnie’s words were trending.

Then came the call from Newman, his voice urgent and breath short.

“What did you mean in your tweet? What’s this about a blood debt? How many has he…”

Winnie cut him off, “It’s not human lives.”

That one line eased–Newman’s panic, but his breathing was still labored.

“What then?” he asked.

“Animals. Small ones.” Winnie replied, her voice colder than usual, tinged with disgust, “Even cats and dogs have spirits, especially those brutalized to death. Their souls cling to their tormentor.”

Newman felt no relief. He wasn’t particularly fond of pets, but he despised animal cruelty all the same.

Years on the force had shown him that many violent offenders had histories of torturing animals. Cat abusers were rampant, and their twisted psyches were often laid bare in their actions.

It wasn’t an overstatement to say that those who found joy in hurting animals were potential murderers.

With no animal welfare laws in place, these monsters roamed free, and their actions were oft by like–minded individuals online.

“The department is prioritizing this case. I’ll make sure we look into what you’ve said.”

“Okay.”
