Clearly, Vernon was momentarily startled upon noticing the asteroid figurine at the very top of the box. However, he still asked security to dump all the contents of the box onto the floor.

I hope you feel better when you bathe yourself in their ashes.” Celeste’s blood was boiling in rage, as she placed the vases containing the ashes of all the people she mentioned in front of her mother.

I remain on the balcony and watch the mourners approach the courtyard, where they are to each take the evenly distributed ashes to the burial site.

Emily spoke nervously from behind. “Blood Diamond and Dark Sapphire has merged when my dear Edmund allowed the members of Blood Diamond pack to join our pack after Alpha Asher’s death” Emily informed in a casual tone. “Alpha Asher is dead?” Riley asked in astonishment. “Oh Yeah, he is.
