The sun dipped lower in the sky, casting a golden hue over the sprawling gardens of the Billion Estate. The delicate fragrance of jasmine and roses lingered in the air, mingling with the scent of freshly cut grass.

The normal hum of the news anchor’s voice filled the room, but there was a strange quality to the program,an undertone of urgency, of something ominous.“Breaking news tonight,” the voice of the anchor resonated, smooth yet tinged with an element of incredulity. “Helen Drams, the known criminal mastermind, has been declared dead in her prison cell at the Makati District Jail. Police reports have yet to determine the official reason behind the demise of the woman, known to have been charged with multiple counts of murder, along with other serious offenses, and was alone at the time of the incident.

Helen sat in the dark cell, her body propped up against the cold concrete wall. Tension filled the air, and Helen’s mind hummed with the buzz of frustration. The sharp clang of steel echoed down the silent hallway as the guard approached, opening the door to the cell without a sound. Helen’s eyes f
