Chapter 53"Yes sir," she said firmly, her brow furrowed in concern. "I thought I didn't need it. I don't want the money to go to waste, and I also thought I am under stress like you suggested. Thanks to the therapist.""But sir, are you sure everything is okay?" she demanded, her voice tinged with doubt. He nodded in response, as if she could see his reassurance.Realizing she wasn't physically there, he spoke up confidently. "Don't worry about us, just hold the company. We will be back soon," he said resolutely before ending the call.As they arrived at the station, both parties stepped out of their vehicles. Mrs. Jerrie was escorted inside by the police, with Bryan following closely behind, his concern evident.After a few minutes, Mrs. Jerrie was called in for questioning, and Bryan decided to accompany her.

Chapter 55After a long day at work, Bryan arrived home to find his grandmother, Grandma Creston, engaged in a heated conversation with Lisa, who was looking elegant in a stylish outfit and had her child by her side, all set for an important event.Curious about the tension in the room, Bryan approached Grandma Creston and inquired, "What's the matter, Grandma? Why do you seem so concerned?" In response, she gestured towards Lisa with a troubled expression."It seems she's making arrangements for Sam's wedding without consulting us. Sam is also my grandson, and I can't understand why she is being so secretive and unreasonable about it," Grandma Creston exclaimed passionately.Bryan, sensing the gravity of the situation, walked closer to his grandmother, ready to offer support and address the growing conflict within the family.Bryan, with a calm yet assertive tone, attempted to diffuse the escalating tension in the room by addressing his agitated grandmother.

I am hanging up," he stated firmly, his voice laced with authority and a touch of frustration, Bryan's tone oozing through the phone line.In response, a threatening edge crept into the other person's voice. "Hang up and welcome your doom to your doorstep because I am going to get rid of all your family," the ominous words whispered through the receiver, sending a shiver down the girl's spine on the other end. Fear gripped her as she realized the severity of the situation unfolding before her.The room grew colder, the air heavy with the weight of the escalating confrontation. The threat lingered, lingering like a dark cloud over the conversation, casting a shadow of unease over both of them.
