Chapter 521

“Wait, Zack did what?”

Lemira couldn’t believe her ears. She rushed down to the basement, where the entire Langston family had already gathered.

Asher stood by the door, staring at Zack’s lifeless body hanging from the ceiling. His brow furrowed, but deep down, he was relieved. A suicide out of guilt meant they could pin all the blame on Zack.

Lucian noticed Lemira approaching and quickly shielded her view. “Don’t look, it’ll haunt your dreams.”

Lemira set her jaw. “Zack wouldn’t have taken his own life.”

“No way,” Asher shot back immediately. “And if it was murder, who did it? Eve’s just a girl; she couldn’t have done it alone. Don’t you dare try to frame her.”

Lemira smirked. “Who’s to say Evelina didn’t have help?”
