No more whispers behind closed doors. Now, it was just her. Well, her and Andres. Later, she’d ask him what was really going on. Around ten-thirty… While seated at her desk, focused on a new design proposal for an eco-resort, she called Tasha. “How’s Palawan?” she asked, sketching a layout. She heard the sound of waves in the background. “Ma’am, everything’s good. The contractors are on time. Leo, Marge, Anton — all present. You’re the only one missing.”

Inside was a single photograph and a note. The photo showed a young man, perhaps twenty-four, with dark hair and unmistakable Hale gray eyes, sitting in a wheelchair in a sunlit garden. The note read: *Lucas Hale is alive. He has been for twenty-four years. Come alone to the address below if you want the full story. Tell your father and the girl dies in the same ‘accident’ as your siblings. A concerned party Cassian’s face turned to stone. He handed the photo to Elena.

My fingers tip tapped on my thigh as the car slowly made its way to the opposite side of the mansion and slowly I started to relax when the lights coming from the small church on the property could be seen and the darkness of the mansion faded away.
