After confirming that, Wanda rushed out of the company and drove towards Starry River Villa.
She arrived at Starry River Villa at the fastest speed she could manage and spotted the scene of the car crash as soon as she drove onto the highway outside the villa.
She got out of the car and stepped towards the crowd that surrounded the scene.
Ablack car and a white car had crashed into one another to the extent that both were deformed; the scene was chaotic and covered with a terrifying amount of blood. Apart from the blood, the one thing that was most eye-catching had to be the person laying on the ground covered by a large piece of white fabric.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt was not a person, but a body.
Wanda stood amongst the crowd and studied the clothes of the deceased under the white rug... From the clothes alone, she had cto a conclusion that it was the person she had hired.
Her blood instantly ran cold.
'So what if she is dead? Where is the box?! Where is the box??' She thought.
She desperately wanted to rush towards the car to search for the box, but the police officers were taking photos of the crash site and she didn't dare to act rashly. If Elliot found out that she was at the accident scene, he would be able to find an excuse to punish her even if she wasn't there to look for the box.
Her eyes began to turn red as she stared at every single item that the police recovered from the car; when she saw the bloodstained box being taken out, she felt that she was running out of air and was about to suffocate.
"That's the box! That has to be the box! That's the box that contains what | need!" She thought and pushed her way forward subconsciously.
One of the police officers opened the box to check what was inside.
Wanda held her breath and widened her eyes to the point that her eyes looked as thought they were about to pop out of her sockets.
She watched as the officer opened the box to have a look inside, before closing it back up and tossing it aside casually like it was garbage.

She thought, ‘why else would the police officer just toss it on the ground like that?’ If there was something in the box, the officer would have taken it out to inspect it; but instead, he opened the box without taking anything out, before closing it back up. It could only mean that the box was empty.
Wanda couldn't help but step back.
If there was nothing inside the box, there was no need for her to waste any more there.
An hour later, Elliot caught the news that the crimson box that went missing from his study room had resurfaced.
The bodyguard brought the box to him and he scowled at the sight of the blood on the box. If it wasn't for the fact that the box contained his personal belongings, he would have never lay a finger on it.
He accepted the box and opened it...
When he saw that there was nothing inside, he immediately clenched his fingers and crushed the box in his hand.
"Mr. Foster, they found this box at the scene of a car accident. The couple in the car are both dead," the bodyguard said, "the police said that the box had been empty from the moment they took it out from the car.” MMMWWLIIOIfIO&1 MMMWWLIIOIfIO&1 mmMwWLLIOfiflO& 1 MMMWWLIIOIfIO&1 MULL TO £2 E1061 mmMwWLIiIOfiflO&1
