"It costs $500 per gram," the saleswoman at the counter told Grey the price of the mineral. "100 grams please."Upon hearing the price, Grey dipped his hands into his pocket and brought out the money, then the woman issued him a receipt. He thanked the woman and was about to leave when he suddenly
When the police heard this, they questioned Grey, Bella, Mrs Pitts, and Van separately. The police took statements and scrutinized them. Bella's family stuck to their narrative, accusing Grey of breaking the plates intentionally."He is responsible for the broken plate. He should be arrested," Bella

Noah and Oliver, Bradley's sons, sat in the average living room of their mother's house with their expressions hard and their voices, heated. The fallout from Jeff Hordes' Will had left a bitter taste in their mouths, and they couldn’t let it go. “This is absurd,” Oliver said, pacing the floor, his
