GoodReadForty minutes later, Alexander materialized at the garbage dump. Standing beside him, under the protection of
an umbrella, was Kyle. His expression was a complex tapestry of emotions as he cast his gaze upon Alexander.
His eyes then shifted to the figure dangling from the tree branch.
Indeed, a figure was suspended from the tree. An elderly woman, a rope looped around her neck, was clad in a
hospital gown. Her hair was in disarray, and she simply hung there. The sight was enough to send chills down
the spine of any passerby.
Kyle stole another glance at Alexander, attempting to decipher his expression. However, the darkness veiled his
features, rendering them unreadable. Swiftly, Kyle signaled for someone to retrieve Juliet from her hanging
position.
A bodyguard promptly ascended the tree and gently lowered the woman. He brushed aside the strands of hair
obscuring her face, revealing Juliet's pallid complexion and eyes wide open in terror. Even the seasoned
bodyguard was taken aback by the sight of her lifeless eyes.
Kyle approached for a closer look, then retreated to deliver the news to Alexander. "Alexander, it's her. She was
already dead when we found her."
Alexander stared at the lifeless body sprawled on the ground, his silence lingering in the air. After a long
moment, he turned and retreated to the car.
"Kyle, what should we do now?" ca voice.
Kyle cast a glance at the body, a shiver coursing through him. Juliet's face was etched with wrinkles, and her

towards Alexander. Upon entering the car, he turned to Alexander in the back seat, "Alexander, what should we
do now?"
Juliet held no significance for Alexander, but Kyle knew that she meant something to Quinn. The divorce
proceedings between the two had just commenced. If Quinn were to discover Juliet's death now, her mind would
undoubtedly race with wild thoughts. She would inevitably think of Alexander.
Alexander's response was curt, "Find it out."
"Okay, I'll go investigate right away."

"Drive."
"Where to?"
Alexander closed his eyes, offering no response. Kyle waited, but no instructions came. Was Alexander unsure of
their destination? Left with no guidance, Kyle decided to drive to the hospital.
The hospital was eerily silent, the entire building seemingly in a deep slumber. Even the usually bustling
emergency department was unusually quiet. Upon their arrival, Alexander reclined in his seat, a lit cigarette
between his fingers, seemingly lost in thought.
"Alexander, I'll go investigate Juliet's situation first," Kyle offered.
"Don't talk about this matter to anyone," Alexander commanded.
Kyle paused, then nodded solemnly. "Yes, | understand," he affirmed. With that, he grabbed an umbrella and
swiftly exited the car.
