Sainz was still on the ground, crying over her sister’s body, refusing to let go.“Cherry… please… don’t leave me…” she sobbed, her voice breaking.The paramedics stood nearby, unsure of what to do.Just then,“Wait! There’s another body!” one of the medics shouted from below the bridge.Everyone turned.The rescue team quickly moved again, pulling another body out of the water.They carried it up and laid it on a stretcher.The moment the cloth was pulled back, Sia froze.Her breath caught.Her legs gave out beneath her.“No…” she whispered.It was him. The man she had sent to spy on Clinton and Bryan.Now he is dead.Kendrick quickly reached out, holding her before she could fall completely.“Hey… hey, are you okay?” he asked, worried.He looked at the body, then back at her.“Do you know him?” he asked.Sia opened her mouth, but no words came out.“I… I…” she stammered.Her voice shook. She couldn’t say it. She couldn’t say that she was the reason he was here.The reason he was dea

I was helping forensics figure out what happened. They found a bomb particle in their vehicles, Kendrick,” Paul said.Kendrick froze, then stood up sharply.“What are you saying?” he asked, alarmed.“Whoever planned this attack used vehicle bombs. They were set up to go off at a specific time,” Paul explained.“So… does that mean we can trace them?” Zara asked, her voice filled with hope.Paul shook his head.“Why are you shaking your head?” she pressed.“It’s not traceable. We even checked the CCTV cameras nearby. Whoever planted it found the loopholes and got in without being seen,” Paul said.Zara’s eyes widened.“Victor Kane… he’s good. Really good. How did he plan all this?”Just then, Jayson came running over.“Guys, it’s Victor Kane. He just called Sainz. I don’t know what he told her, but she looks… shocked,” he said.They all raced toward Sainz.Sainz had just finished a call from the hospital when her phone rang again. It was an unknown number. She hesitated, then picked it

Sia stood outside the office, staring at the door. She could hear voices inside.They were talking about her.She took a deep breath and knocked.“Come in.”She opened the door and stepped inside.Her chief was there along with two senior officers.Their faces were serious.“Inspector Jenkins,” her chief said coldly. “Close the door.”She did.“Do you know why you’re here?” he asked.Sia swallowed. “Because of what happened at the scene, sir.”Her chief picked up a remote and turned on the TV.The same clip played again. Her firing the gun.Nothing else. It was just that.He paused it.“Care to explain this?” he asked.Sia frowned.“That’s not the full video, sir,” she said. “The reporters were crowding Mr. Hale. He couldn’t breathe. I warned them several times, but they refused to move. I had no choice.”One of the senior officers scoffed.“So your solution was to fire a weapon in public?”“It was a warning shot, sir,” she replied. “To control the situation.”“Control?” her chief sn

Bryan and Melissa were sitting down, watching the news.“Victor is a real psycho,” Melissa said, shaking her head.Bryan nodded. “What do you expect? He’s Bernard Hale’s godson. That guy is dangerous.”“I wonder what he’s doing right now,” Melissa said, thinking out loud.Bryan looked at her.“Why do you even care? Just focus on what you’re supposed to do,” he said, then muttered something under his breath.Melissa turned sharply. “What did you say? Say it properly so I can hear you!”Before Bryan could reply, BANG!The door flew open as Clinton stormed in.“Jesus Christ!” Melissa said, holding her chest. “What was that for?”“Man, what’s wrong with you?” Bryan asked. “Are you on something?”Clinton didn’t answer immediately.“Isabella and Paul know each other,” he said.At first, they didn’t process it. They kept talking, confused, then suddenly stopped.“What?!” both of them shouted at the same time.“How is that even possible?” Bryan asked.“They met when she was in Switzerland,”

Bernard stood in the common room with the other inmates, watching the news on TV. His arms were folded, and his face showed no emotion.Suddenly, Thud!Someone hit him hard on the head. Bernard quickly turned around, shocked, and saw Warden Daniel standing behind him.“What was that for?” Bernard asked, staring straight at him.The other inmates started gathering around, curious about what was going on.“How dare you look at me like that?” Daniel snapped. “Lower your eyes when I’m talking to you!”Bernard didn’t move.“I don’t think you get to tell me what to do,” he said calmly.Before anyone could react, Daniel kicked him hard.Bernard fell to his knees.As he tried to get back up, Daniel signaled to the guards. They rushed forward and held Bernard down, pinning him to the ground.Daniel pulled out a whip.Then,Crack!He struck Bernard.Again and again.He kept going until he had given him thirty lashes.“This will teach you not to be disobedient,” Daniel said coldly. “You need to
