He was shocked when he learned that these two were the victims.
He stared at the portraits, trying to remember if he had ever met them.
But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t recall.
At the time of the accident, Jacob was extra cautious due to the poor road conditions, so he was going slow.
When he reached the accident spot, a car suddenly shot out from a side road.
Jacob instinctively swerved, crashing through the guardrail and rolling down the hill.
Luckily, he wasn’t going too fast.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIf he had been, by the time someone found him, he might have already been a goner.
Not long after the crash, someone approached his car. Jacob caught a glimpse of the person shining a flashlight
towards the driver’s seat.
At that angle, he got a clear look at the guy’s face.
Jacob instantly recognized him from the portrait. It was the guy with the scar on his brow
He unplugged the dashcam and held a dagger gleaming coldly in his hand.
Jacob was already barely breathing and trying to play dead, but the guy wasn’t planning on letting him off the hook.
He raised his dagger, ready to strike again.
Just then, a beam of light shone from not too far away.
The guy quickly ditched the attack, pocketed the dashcam, and disappeared into the night.
Later, Jacob learned that it was a local ranger who had heard the crash and came to check, ultimately saving his
life.
“Jacob, you need to rest up. I’ll find the guy who did this to you.” Wayne said solemnly.
Jacob trusted him. “I want to know why this incident is such a big deal that you didn’t even dare to let my parents
fly back.”
Rosalynn started telling Jacob about the Heatherway murders.
Recently, Wayne and her team had basically confirmed the murders Annie had mentioned.
Jacob laughed bitterly, “An incident from six years ago is still affecting us, talk about bad luck.”
“Heatherway?” Erica looked upset, “She almost had you killed? I need to find her!”
“She’s dead.” Rosalynn said calmly.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmErica looked shocked. “I saw her in London half a year ago. I didn’t recognize her then. She looked sickly, or maybe
she was on some medication because she was so thin.. Wait, if she’s dead, then what’s up with these recent
murders?”
“Someone must be taking revenge for her.” Wayne answered coldly, looking at Erica as if she were a dimwit.
But Erica didn’t get his point.
“Heatherway was dumped by the Rosso family long ago. The only person who would go on a killing spree for her
might be a childhood friend.” Erica pondered.
“Childhood friend?” Rosalynn and Wayne asked in unison.
“Yes, don’t you guys know?” Erica pulled out her phone and searched for a while, finally finding a photo. “Robert
Magnus. Technically, his family and Heatherway’s have a long–standing rivalry. My little brother went to the same
elite school and was in the same class as Robert and Heatherway. He used to tell me that Robert and Heatherway
were dating. Well, they were only six or seven years old then.”
