Chapter 111

Author: Summer Knowles
Zachary gently placed Sarah into the car, settling her in the back seat before climbing into the driver’s seat himself.

As the car started moving, Sarah took a closer look at her leg. After the ice pack treatment, the swelling had worsened, and her leg was now painfully puffy and red.

Zachary gripped the steering wheel, his expression filled with guilt.

The thermos had been his idea—he’d brought it to Sarah, filled with steaming hot water. If he hadn’t, perhaps none of this would have happened.

The atmosphere inside the car was heavy, the air thick with tension. Sarah, sitting quietly in the back, could feel the weight of Zachary’s mood pressing down on her.

“Zachary, what are you thinking about?” she asked, breaking the silence.

Until now, he hadn’t shown this kind of expression, not even in the infirmary. Was it because of the Chancers?

“I was thinking,” he said quietly, “if only I hadn’t brought that thermos today.”

Sarah blinked, surprised. She hadn’t expected him to blame

    Seeing Mia cling to him like that, Zachary finally said, “He has been in the ward next to yours this whole time.”“What? Then why haven’t I seen him?” Mia stared at him, wide-eyed.“He is resting,” Zachary said quietly, and used the excuse of work to slip away.As he left, a thought tugged at him.‘If she hears that Grandpa woke up… will she be happy for us?’He knew he should not think about her at a moment like this, but he still wanted to see her.A sharp ringtone shattered the quiet in Melvin’s bedroom.He had been surviving on almost no sleep because of an urgent project at work. His face looked terrible as he answered, voice dark and irritated. “Say it quick. If you are calling just to breathe, hang up.”Zachary froze for a second, pulled his phone away to check the caller ID, and only then continued. “Who pissed you off? Your temper is worse than usual.”Melvin sat up and pressed his fingers against his aching brow. “If you were half dead from working all night and someo

    The nurse sensed the atmosphere and quietly stepped out of the room.“Grandpa, do you know something?” Mia whispered, her voice trembling. “Yesterday Lily told me her grandfather is turning seventy, and she invited me to the birthday banquet. Grandpa, when will you wake up? I am older now. I can help plan your birthday party too…”Her voice broke before she finished the sentence. Soon she was crying so hard she could not speak.Zachary felt his chest tighten at the sound. He walked over and gently patted her shoulder.Then, suddenly, his grandfather’s fingers twitched.Zachary saw it instantly. He froze, hardly daring to breathe, terrified that he had imagined it.A few seconds later, the fingers moved again, twice.He reacted before he could think. He forgot the call button entirely and bolted out of the room, shouting down the hallway, “Doctor. Doctor, come quickly!”Mia, startled by his outburst, turned to look at the bed.Her heart pounded until it felt like it would burst

    Melvin noticed the way Sarah’s mood dipped and spoke gently. “None of that is going to happen again. The person responsible is already in police custody. Try not to think about it anymore, Sarah.”“I am not afraid,” Sarah said quietly. “If someone commits a crime, they should expect the consequences. The moment you do something like that, you already have one foot in prison.”Once they drove past Brookstone Street, some color finally returned to her face.“Sarah, did you hire a private investigator?” Melvin hesitated for a long moment before asking.“How did you know that?” She looked at him in confusion. She had not told him anything yet.Melvin answered without hesitation, immediately selling Zachary out. “Zachary asked me. He wanted to know what you were looking into, but I did not tell him.”Sarah’s brows knotted, and her expression darkened. “If he asks again, tell him it has nothing to do with him.”The days leading up to the New Year were always crowded. People who had be

    She opened the door cautiously, still unaware of what was happening.Standing outside were police officers in uniform.“You…?” she began.Before she could finish, the lead officer held up his badge and spoke coldly. “Vivian Wilson, you are under investigation for attempted murder. We are taking you in for questioning. Please cooperate.”Vivian forced herself to stay calm and nodded. She looked back at her equally confused assistant.“Make sure my grandfather has a caregiver. And call a lawyer for me.”Her mind stayed foggy all the way to the police car. Even when she was escorted out and placed in the interrogation room, it all felt like one continuous blur.A female officer sat across from her with a detached expression.“Miss Wilson, where were you on the nineteenth, two months ago?”“I was at home.”Vivian’s heart sank. That was the day Sarah’s accident happened. Her face tightened. Had the police found something? No. She had covered everything perfectly. No one should kno

    “Reason?” Mr. Garnett snapped. “Go on, tell me. What excuse could possibly justify kidnapping someone from the Sachs family? Are you tired of living? I suppose James is divorcing you because of this too, isn’t he?”“Dad, is money and status all you ever care about? Do you really not care about me at all?” Charlotte’s voice cracked. To her, this felt like betrayal. To her father, it meant nothing.Her tears held no weight in front of the collapsing company. Mr. Garnett didn’t even glance at her, only continued to lash out.“Stupid. Absolutely stupid.”Mrs. Garnett finally stepped in and wrapped her arms protectively around her daughter. “Enough. She already feels awful. You are her father. Don’t you care about her at all?”“What good does caring do?” he roared. “Look at her. Does she even understand the consequences of what she’s done?”Charlotte’s chest tightened. “Dad, don’t forget everything the Garnett family has today is because of me.”“So that gives you the right to destro

    Steven knocked on the door with a heavy expression.“What is it?” Reynolds asked.At this point, nothing surprised him anymore. As long as people existed, there would always be someone capable of doing something outrageous.“Miss Sanders met with a private investigator this afternoon,” Steven said quickly.Reynolds frowned slightly. “Why would she meet a detective?”“She is trying to uncover the truth about something.”“What truth?”“We don’t know yet. That detective is tight-lipped.”Reynolds nodded in understanding. “People in that line of work don’t reveal their client’s information.”Still… he was curious. What exactly was Sarah investigating?“Update me when you learn more,” he said, massaging his brow before sitting back down.Steven left the office without another word.---Early the next morning, Charlotte received a call from her parents. They sounded frantic, so she rushed home immediately, unaware of what had happened.Exhausted, she stepped into the house, onl
