Chapter 1891
Beatrixâs voice quivered with anguish as she cried out, âThe police have yet to
uncover the true culprit behind this atrocity. Theyâve only discovered that
these three factions are likely involved, each linked to the chaos.â
Emmanuel and Mackenzie were gripped by a wave of frustration and
despair. With Sage absent from the force, the path to solving the case
seemed shrouded in darkness. They understood all too well that the forces
orchestrating this calamity were deeply entrenched, rendering the
investigation a formidable challenge. Even if the truth emerged, it was not
guaranteed to be revealed in a way that would bring clarity.
Mackenzie, her concern momentarily set aside, turned her focus to her
family. She asked softly, âHow is everyone?â Her heart ached with the fear of
loss, but she found solace in knowing that, as long as her loved ones were
safe, the destruction of the Quillen residence was a secondary worry.
Beatrixâs tears flowed more freely, her voice breaking as she choked out, âAlmost every member of the family was attacked on the same day. Aunt

Stephanie and Aunt Sofia are dead. Aunt Samantha remains unconscious,
and only Aunt Sophie survives after being resuscitated. She is under constant
police guard, but she is still consumed by terror⦠sob, sobâ¦â
Mackenzieâs heart seemed to shatter upon hearing this. It was as though she
had been struck by a lightning bolt of grief and shock. Emmanuelâs steady
presence was the only thing keeping her upright; without him, she might
have crumpled to the ground.
âMackenzie, I⦠I canât bear to say more⦠You must stay strong for the little one
growing inside you,â Beatrix implored, her body trembling uncontrollably as
her sobs intensified.
Mackenzie bit her lip, forcing herself to remain steadfast. âIâm fine, continue,â
she urged, though Beatrixâs tears made it impossible for her to continue
speaking.
Seeing Beatrixâs struggle, Mackenzie turned to Lexi. Lexi, who had been a steadfast companion through countless trials, was remarkably composed. She took a deep breath and said, âMs. Beatrix took Frederick and Shane to

Nuthana for negotiations that day, so they managed to escape the disaster.
For the past few days, theyâve been under the protection of Sage and the
Wolf Warrior Society. They have remained in hiding, and it was only upon
hearing of your return that we dared to come.â
âThe primary target of the attack was undoubtedly Old Mr. Quillen. He and
Alfred had just returned to the estate when the assault commenced,
indicating it was meticulously planned!â
Mackenzieâs voice wavered with fear as she grasped Lexiâs hand tightly. âWhat
about my grandfather?â
Lexi glanced at Emmanuel before responding, âOld Mr. Quillenâs whereabouts
are unknown. We donât know if he was reduced to ashes. Alfred and your
motherâ¦â
âWhat about them?!â Emmanuelâs entire body tensed, his voice trembling with
dread.
âThe police have confirmed that they are all dead.â Lexiâs words emerged

A thunderous roar seemed to erupt within Emmanuelâs mind, nearly causing
him to lose consciousness, Behind him, Rhett sighed deeply in sorrow, sharing
in the collective grief.
Emmanuelâs fists tightened into whiteâknuckled, trembling balls. The
overwhelming sadness in his heart spread like wildfire, consuming every
ounce of his strength. He stood, staring vacantly at the heavens, struggling to
stem the tide of tears that threatened to overwhelm him.
âEmmanuel, you must stay strong! We have to endure, to seek justice for
those weâve lost!â Mackenzieâs voice was a beacon of resolve amidst the
chaos. Her heart ached with profound grief, especially for Alessandra, who
had always shown her unparalleled kindness.
Emmanuel nodded, his grip on Mackenzieâs hand unwavering. In that
moment, they drew strength from each other, their solidarity providing fragile.

âLetâs go inside and survey the damage Mackenzie said, mustering the
courage to confront the aftermath of the devastation.
The onceâgrand Quillen residence lay in ruin, a somber testament to the fireâs
wrath. What was once a symbol of opulence was now a landscape of broken
walls and charred remains. The flames had turned everything to ash, leaving
behind a haunting vista of blackened desolation.
Their hearts were heavy as they walked through the wreckage in silence.
Mackenzieâs steps faltered as she reached the burnt villa, where she picked
up a halfâcharred doll, its features barely discernible through the soot. The
sight of the onceâcherished toy, now a relic of innocence consumed by
flames, was a poignant reminder of the calamity that had befallen them.
âMackenzie, I heard that Felicity was in the villa with Emmanuelâs mother just
before the attack on the estate. She managed to escape with the
bodyguardsâ protection!â Beatrix informed her:
Mackenzie nodded slightly, feeling a faint sense of relief, but then she added,
âBut Sarah is dead.â

âWhat?â Beatrix blinked in surprise, not showing any sorrow. She had never
had a good relationship with Sarah, who had even tried to steal the Quillen
familyâs Heart of the Sun. If she was dead, so be it.
But she noticed that Mackenzie and Emmanuel were both filled with sadness,
and she couldnât help but wonder what had transpired between them and
Sarah.
Outside the villa, Rhett didnât follow the Saintess inside. Instead, he crossed
his arms, closed his eyes, and stood guard at the entrance. Suddenly, his
ears twitched, and his eyes snapped open, sensing a powerful presence. He
frowned and began to walk deeper into the estateâs pathways.
