The young man was partially undressed.
Strangulation marks marred his neck, indicating his demise.
Speaking in hushed tones, the detective shared.
âHeâs been dead for less than two hours.
He engaged in vigorous s@xual activity before his death.
â
Waylen donned gloves, retrieving a work ID from the old desk.
The deceased was 24 years old and an electrician by profession.
Surveying the room, Waylen formed a conjecture about the assailantâs identity
He also surmised that the evidence of bodily fluids would have been meticulously cleaned⦠Aline had killed the young man to safeguard a secret.
Next to the bed lay $100, 000.
âTake these for investigation by Mr.
Winston, Also, look into the deceasedâs background and provide his family with $500, 000 for relocation.
Keep the source of the money anonymous.
â
The detective was perplexed.
Understanding wasnât required from himâ¦
Waylen exited the stifling room quietly, the young manâs lifeless visage etched into his mind.
Standing amidst the falling snow, he smoked half a pack of cigarettes.
The scent of death lingered, unshakeable.
It wasnât until he returned home, the villaâs warm lights aglow, that he began to feel a sense of reliefâ¦
Beneath the shroud of night, the villa rested in profound tranquility.
Waylen shed his coat and ascended the staircase with measured steps.
All the household staff had succumbed to slumber, leaving only a solitary night lamp to break the darkness.
In the bedroom on the second floorâs eastern wing, he pushed the door ajar, greeted by a gentle, inviting yellow glow.
Rena hadnât retired for the night yet.
Wrapped in a cozy pajama, she nestled against the sofa engrossed in reading a script.
Waylen quietly shut the door behind him.

âAre the kids asleep? Did you have the ginger tea before bed?â Upon hearing his voice, Rena put aside the script and met his gaze.
Waylen approached her, his lips poised for a ki*s, but he hesitated, his voice gravelly, âIâll take a shower first.
â
Rena had been ready to rise and prepare a midnight snack for him.
However, Waylen stopped her in her tracks, his tone gentle but firm.
âStay in the bedroom.
Iâll whip up some noodles later.
â
With that, he proceeded to freshen up.
