Chapter 1229:
After stime, Tina managed to compose herself. “So you're tellingyou don’t plan on avenging Judy?”
“Why would | bother? Judy spent a long tscheming to get rid of Brenna—she had it coming, and I've already
told the police everything.”
“But she was your wife! Do you really hate her that much?” Tina's stomach twisted. Things were veering off in a
direction she hadn’t seen coming. Not only had Denis refused to avenge Judy, but he had gone as far as laying
bare her wrongdoings to the police.
A sinking feeling crawled over Tina. If she lingered any longer, Denis might just hand her over to the authorities.
Without another word, she slipped out the door, not daring to look back.
Life had taken a pleasant turn for Gracie since she moved in with Elsa. The days were peaceful, and Elsa, aware
of Gracie’s past suicide attempts, went out of her way to make sure Gracie felt comfortable.
Evenings brought a new highlight. Ethan often dropped by to check on Gracie, never staying late, but his visits

another suicide attempt, she believed she might be able to be with Ethan.
Once Ethan left for the night, Gracie would always ring up Rosie to plan their next move.
Normally, Rosie picked up without delay.
Tonight, though, when she tried Rosie's usual number, she found that Rosie’s phone was turned off.
“Probably just a dead battery,” Gracie muttered and dialed the backup number Rosie had given her, only to find
that one had been out of service.
Confusion creased Gracie’s brow. Something about this felt off.

She decided to let it go and checked her phone before bed, only to see shocking news—Clive and Judy had died
in a shootout.
Neither Rosie nor Tina was mentioned in the news, but Gracie’s thoughts went straight to Rosie.
After all, Rosie and Judy had been close, sometimes discussing shady dealings. Gracie had always been on the
fringe, but she knew Rosie was clever and often manipulated others.
Could Rosie be involved in this incident?
Was this why she couldn’t reach Rosie?
Maybe Rosie had already been arrested by the police?
Every possibility ran through Gracie’s mind, but she found no reports of any recent arrests.
The next morning, Gracie tried calling Rosie again.
This time, Rosie finally answered the call.
Trying to keep her tone casual, Gracie said, “I tried reaching you last night, but...”
“I couldn’t get through.”
Rosie, cautious about potential police questioning of Gracie, remained calm.
“What's the matter?” she asked.
