Chapter 6 Chapter 6 +25 Bonus A young expat named Aaron waited at the dock. "Wallace filled me in. I'll accompany you for the rest of the journey. Your mother's businesses are managed by Mr. Sexton. He is waiting in Zurich." I nodded, suppressing the emotions swelling within. "Thank you." On the flight to Zurich, I rested by the window. My phone buzzed with a message from Kirk Sexton, accompanied by a detailed list of my mother's assets- hotels, galleries, shares in tech companies-far vaster than I had imagined. It turned out she had never relied on the Winters family.
She'd built a fortress for us. Richard murdered her, not solely for her cash; he coveted this hidden wealth. Kirk greeted me at the airport, handing over a file. "Miss, this is the equity transfer your mother entrusted to me. She instructed that everything pass to you upon adulthood." I opened it to see her bold signature, dated a week before her death.

Also, dig into Liam and Neal Ramos. I want every detail of their lives." Kirk nodded. "Consider it done." I gazed at the snow-capped mountains outside, vowing to make them pay. At the Winters Mansion, Neal stood outside the study, hearing Richard's furious shouts. His cane struck the floor sharply. "Useless! Can't even keep track of one girl? If Eira is dead, what about her mother's assets?" "Dad, don't be mad," Olive sobbed. "We tried our best. Maybe Eira just got scared and ran off. She'll be back." "Back?" Richard sneered.
"If she does, I'll silence her for good!" 1/2 Chapter 6 +25 Bonus Neal's fists clenched, his nails digging into his palms. My composure in the warehouse and the bookmark in the alley fueled his unease. Liam returned, whispering, "I found something." They moved to the quiet garden, where Liam handed over a file.
