Chapter 42

Early next morning, Nathan Cross and Penny Smith drove their daughter to her kindergarten as usual.

They parked their car near the entrance of the kindergarten and took their daughter to the gates personally, taking a moment to talk with her teacher about their daughter’s behavior in school.

When they returned to their car afterwards, they were horrified to find that their beloved BMW M760Li xDrive had been smashed to pieces.

The rearview mirror, front lights and windows have all been reduced to glass shards that were strewn across the ground.

A crowd had formed around the broken car, their quiet chatters filling the air.

Nathan Cross’ face darkened at the sight of that.

“What happened? Who did this to our car?” Penny Smith yelled desperately.

At that moment, Penny Smith’s phone rang. It was an unknown number.

She frowned and answered the call, “Hello?”

“This is Ms. Smith, am I right? I’m sure you’ve noticed that your car’s been destroyed, yes?” A male voice boomed from the other end of the line.
