“Well, things change.
Everything’s almost ready.
What’s more, I’ve prepared a gift for my dear brother.”
“A gift?”
Odin smiled thinly but said nothing.
The look in his eyes was unfathomable.
A shiny Maybach was speeding down the road, expertly weaving in and out of traffic.
“Mr.
Sullivan, I’m so sorry.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt’s all my fault.
I didn’t watch Susan closely enough.
It caught all of us by surprise.” Ivan’s trembling voice cout of the phone’s speaker.
Right after Susan jumped off the building, Ivan immediately called
Victor to report the incident.
While dealing with Susan’s funeral arrangements, Ivan instructed his men to stop the reporters from coming inside the office.
At this moment, Victor was driving toward the location Carson had sent him.
Standing downstairs outside the in-patient department building, a mere two meters away from where Susan had fallen, Ivan could clearly see a pool of blood on the ground.
It belonged to Susan.
He raised his head and saw the balcony of Susan’s ward.
Susan had jumped off the balcony without hesitation.
Half an hour ago, she was pleading with Victor, saying that she didn’t want to marry Odin.
She didn’t seem to have lost hope for life after their conversation, but then, she jumped off the balcony.
Her change of heart was so radical that Ivan felt it was strange.
But he still couldn’t make sense of what had happened.
It was as if someone had carefully orchestrated her death.
A gust of autumn wind blew over.
With suspicions flooding his mind, Ivan couldn’t help but shiver.
He didn’t know if it was because of the cold wind or if he was terrified by these strange circumstances.
Back on the highway, Victor stepped on the gas and sped up even more.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe was driving the Maybach at 120 miles per hour, reducing the usually forty-minute drive to only eighteen minutes.
Carson spotted the speeding car from a distance.
He hung up the phone and walked over.
A few meters away, Victor parked the car and stepped out.
“That was fast.
I thought you would need at least ten more minutes,”
Carson remarked.
The shiny Maybach soon caught his eye, and he raised his eyebrows.
“Really? That is one of the only three models on the entire planet.
You shouldn’t drive recklessly.
It’s not a sports car.
A rare luxury vehicle like this one needs to be treated with utmost care.”
Ignoring Carson’s advice, Victor looked around and saw that there were only a few cars passing by on the highway in the suburbs.
“Have your men found any clue? Telleverything,” Victor asked in a serious tone.
