Chapter 3

It was an accident. No one expected it.

Trevor's parents turned white overnight when they got the news.

Because the remains have not been found, his parents have not organized a funeral for the time being, as they still have a glimmer of hope.

They also knew that Trevor's chances of survival were slim, and they ended up being depressed and praying daily at home in a Buddhist ritual.

Within a few days, it was announced that the Hudson family estate would be turned over to me and the two old men retired.

After all, they only have one son, Trevor, and I've been together for so long that they trust me.

Before that I studied a lot of business finance in order to help Trevor.

Trevor also used to take me to social functions and most of the people in the circle knew me.

Emma stayed with me the whole time, I know she was worried that I wouldn't be able to think straight, but really I wasn't vulnerable at all.

Within a week, I had become the go-to guy at the Hudson family.

That little cop was diligent enough to send me the progress of the case every day.

"Finding your husband has become more difficult due to high tides and the weather."

"Your husband's chances of survival are slim, so I'm sorry for your loss."

Until today, when I had just gotten home from dropping off Emma for a break and he gave me a call.

"Ms. Arnold, an important lead has been discovered, would it be convenient for you to come to the station?"

I immediately rushed to the police station.
