was a constant rer of the resentment that had festered between him, hist
and Jace. If Wayne had hidden Jace anywhere, it had to be here.

| was right.
"Jace," | called softly, reaching for the door handle.
Locked. Of course, it wouldn't open.
Swiping the dust off the window, | peered inside. My breath caught. Jace was sprawled across the backseat, tied

"Jace! Jace!" | yelled, louder this time..

No response. He wasn't moving. Wayne must've knocked him out.
My stomach churned. Wayne had truly lost it.
There was no tto hunt down the keys. My eyes darted around until they landed on a fire extinguisher in the
corner. Without thinking, | grabbed it and slammed it into the window with all my strength. Nothing. The glass
barely cracked.
Two heavy blows, and it still didn't break.

| couldn't risk hitting harder-I1 had to protect the baby.
"Rea."
| spun around to see Isabel, the Johnston family's housekeeper, rushing toward me.
"I'll handle it," she said, taking the extinguisher from me.
She swung it twice, and the glass cracked into a web-like pattern. After a couple more strikes, a hole finally
formed. Isabel reached in and unlocked the door.
| climbed into the car, shaking Jace gently. "Jace, wake up..
Please."
His eyelashes twitched, and after a few agonizing seconds, his eyes fluttered open. "Rea..." he croaked weakly.
Isabel and | worked quickly to untie him, helping him sit up. He winced, his voice hoarse as he said, "It was

"Wayne's using your dad's funeral to make a move," | started, but the sound of footsteps echoed through the
garage, cuttingoff.
My chest tightened. It had to be Wayne. Lena hadn't managed to hold him off.
Jace was awake but far too weak to defend himself. | gently pressed him back into the car and stood up, ready to
face whatever cnext.

amazewith how clever you are."
"Wayne Johnston, don't you think you've completely lost your humanity?" 1 snapped, anger shaking my voice.
How could he do this? To his own brother, to his own family? Any shred of decency he had was long gone, and
using his father's funeral as a power play was just... disgusting.

Wayne's voice grew sharper as he pointed at his brother. "They were the ones who were wrong. But somehow,
I'm still the one to blame. Tell me, Rea-how is that fair?"

He shook his head like he was genuinely disappointed. "If even one of you had cared about me, | wouldn't be like
this."
Even now, he blamed everyone but himself.
"Rea," he said as he took a step closer, "I didn't want to drag you into this. But since you insist on getting
involved, I'll give you what you want."
A wave of fear washed over me, but | stood my ground, gripping the fire extinguisher tightly. "Don't cany
