Chapter 2011

Rodney laid out the documents before Kristian.

“Bella’s death hasn’t been confirmed,” he said hesitantly.

“Shouldn’t we wait until we have more certainty before settling her assets?”

“We’ve searched for days and found nothing.

Rodney’s eyes locked onto Kristian’s, recognizing the profound torment etched into his expression, as though he longed to follow Bella into the afterlife.

Without uttering another word, Rodney extended the documents to Kristian.

Kristian’s gaze settled on the papers, adrenaline surging through his veins.
