She kept thinking about Declan, wondering where he was and if he was okay. “What the helm is wrong with Declan , this is so unlike him “ Stella whispered to herself and since no one really liked him because they think he is poor , no one bothered to look for him or ask her about him.

As soon as the email arrived, Clara’s heart raced with excitement.She quickly printed out the document and snuck into her grandfather's sick room. The old man was barely conscious, his eyes half-closed, oblivious to his surroundings. Clara held the letter in front of him, guiding his trembling hand to place his thumbprint on the paper.

Slumdog Billionaire 43. Stinking Dead Body
Chapter Fourty Three Clara felt a buzz in her purse and pulled out her phone. The message read, "Let's meet at our usual hiding spot. A body needs to be destroyed." She closed her phone after reading the message, topped up her makeup, and scanned her reflection in the mirror. Satisfied with her appearance, she left the restroom and bullied two workers for being too slow in restocking the shelves. As she exited the building, she lashed out at the valet, hitting him with her purse because his hands touched the body of her car."Don't you dare touch my car again!" she snarled, her eyes burning with fury. The valet stumbled back, his face pale with shock. Clara ignored him, got into her car, and zoomed off, the tires screeching as she sped away.The drive to the outskirts of town was a blur.

As she reached the bottom of the stairs, she saw Stella stumbling into the house. Stella looked scared, weak, and unkempt. Her clothes were torn, her hair dishevelled, and her eyes wide with fear."What’s wrong?" Clara asked with fake concern, masking her true feelings. She already knew what was wrong with Stella."I don’t know," Stella replied, her voice trembling. "Something seems off and my husband, Declan, is nowhere to be found. I feel so bad that I don’t know much about him so that I can look for him."Clara's expression hardened slightly. "Stop worrying about that low-ass poor man," she said dismissively. "He is nothing to you, and he makes your position and status in society look so bad."But Stella continued to cry. "I still want to talk to him. I need to find him."Clara’s patience was wearing thin.

I’m here to help you.”Stella looked up, her eyes wide with fear. “I don’t trust you,” she said. ““I know what you did.”Doctor Jack sighed. “I’m sorry you feel that way. But you need to come with me. It’s not safe here.”Stella shook her head. “No. I won’t go with you.”Doctor Jack stepped closer, his smile fading. “I’m afraid you don’t have a choice.”Stella stood up, backing away from him. “Stay away from me!”Doctor Jack lunged forward, grabbing her arm.

One evening, as we sat together in the living room, Hazel’s eyes sparkled with a new idea. “I’ve been thinking... we’ve been focused on defense, on reacting to the threats against us. But what if we went on the offensive?” I exchanged glances with Kai, Declan, and Vincent, all of us intrigued but cautious. “What do you have in mind, Hazel?” Kai asked, leaning forward, his eyes narrowing with interest. “We know there are people out there who want to hurt us. We’ve been playing their game, letting them set the rules. What if we turn the tables? What if we take the fight to them?” Declan cracked his knuckles, a grin spreading across his face. “Now that’s a plan I can get behind.” Vincent, always the strategist, tapped his chin thoughtfully. “It’s risky. We could provoke a war.” Hazel’s smile was wicked, filled with the fire that had drawn us all to her in the first place. “They’re already at war with us.

66. Heartbreak
The room fell into a stunned silence as the gravity of their situation settled over them like a shroud. Stella felt her chest tighten, the weight of their actions pressing down until she could barely breathe. Declan, still dazed, stared blankly at the screen. Mason, ever the stoic one, was pale, his eyes wide with disbelief and regret.For a long moment, no one moved or spoke. The only sound was the soft hum of the hidden chamber, the cold, clinical atmosphere in stark contrast to the chaos they had narrowly escaped above. But the knowledge that the harbingers were spreading across the city, that they had unleashed something unstoppable, hung over them like a death sentence.“We’re responsible for this,” Stella whispered, her voice cracking. “We did this.”Mason didn’t look at her, his gaze fixed on the screen as the shadowy figures swarmed through the streets. “We didn’t know,” he said quietly, but there was no conviction in his words. They both knew it was a hollow excuse.Declan fi

As Stella and Declan made their way back to Mason’s office, the dawn light casting long shadows across the pavement, a strange sensation tugged at the back of Stella's mind. She couldn't shake the feeling that something was still amiss, that the calm after their battle was deceptive.Mason greeted them at the door, his face haggard from sleepless nights of research and preparation. He nodded as they entered, the atmosphere heavy with the unspoken relief of survival. Yet, as Mason closed the door behind them, an eerie silence settled over the room, thicker than before."I think we did it," Declan said, his voice breaking the tension. "The city's safe."Mason nodded, but there was no satisfaction in his eyes, only a lingering unease. He walked over to the bookshelf, pulling down the same dusty tome they had been studying. He flipped through the pages, his fingers trembling slightly."There’s something I need to show you," he said quietly, his tone almost ominous. He turned the book towa

Stella worked through the night, her eyes fixed on the map. The man watched her closely, his presence a constant reminder of the danger she was in. As she traced her fingers over the symbols, she began to notice a pattern. Each symbol corresponded to a place on the island, places she had visited in her months of solitude. She realized her grandfather had hidden the clues in plain sight, using the island as a giant puzzle."We need to go to the old lighthouse," Stella said, pointing to a symbol that matched the structure.The man narrowed his eyes. "Lead the way," he ordered, tightening his grip on her wrist.They made their way through the dense forest, the path illuminated by the first light of dawn. The lighthouse loomed ahead, its silhouette stark against the rising sun. As they approached, Stella's heart pounded. She hoped her plan would work.Inside the lighthouse, the air was thick with dust and decay. Stella led the man to a trapdoor hidden under a pile of debris. She hesitated

Stella woke up in a dimly lit room. Her head throbbed, and her vision was blurry. She tried to sit up but found her hands and feet bound. Panic surged through her as she scanned her surroundings. The room was small, with a single barred window high up on the wall. The door was heavy and wooden, with no sign of a handle from the inside."Where am I?" she whispered to herself, her voice trembling.Footsteps echoed outside the door. Stella's heart raced. The door creaked open, and the man from the shore entered, his expression cold and unreadable."Who are you? What do you want from me?" Stella demanded, trying to keep her fear at bay.The man ignored her questions and placed the black metallic chest on the floor in front of her. "You have something that belongs to me," he said, his voice steady and chilling."I don't know what you're talking about," Stella replied, her mind racing to understand.The man crouched down, his eyes locking onto hers.

Chapter Sixty Stella stood on the shore, her brush dancing across the canvas as she captured the serene beauty of the island. Three months had passed since she arrived, and it had been a transformative experience. The peace and quiet had allowed her to reconnect with nature and tap into her creative side. Her paintings, once amateurish and uncertain, now radiated a sense of confidence and skill. They were reminiscent of the Greek goddesses she had always admired, and she felt a sense of pride and accomplishment. But as she mixed colors on her palette, a sense of unease settled in the pit of her stomach. She had been dreading this moment for weeks, ever since her father's letters had stopped arriving. And then, it came. A small boat arrived on the shore, carrying a somber-faced messenger. Stella's heart sank as he approached her, his eyes filled with sympathy. "Miss Stella, I'm so sorry to inform you that your grandfather has passed away," he said, his voice barely above a whisper
