JAKE’S POV The day of the will reading was finally here. The story leak had worked perfectly. I used a foreign number to text the journalist, and even though I didn’t get a reply, the next day, the story was everywhere—in newspapers, magazines, and local news channels. Wherever Jack and Karen were, they couldn’t have missed it. I made sure everything was set before leaving the house. My friend had sent a small security team, and they were thorough.
