?Chapter 1235:


    The warehouse door hung ajar. Mose peeked inside and froze,pletely stunned by what he saw.


    As he leaned in for another look, a sudden gust of wind mmed the warehouse door shut with a loud bang.


    Mose jolted in surprise.


    One of his men rushed over and asked, “What’s the matter?”


    Mose tossed Winslow into the car and leaned in to whisper, “I think I just saw the boss’s…”


    Carol drove back with Dani, stealing countless nces at her throughout the ride.


    Dani sat silently, staring out the window, her face unreadable.


    Carol couldn’t hold back any longer. Halfway through the drive, she eximed, “Damn! This story is a brutal rollercoaster of love and betrayal. Is the McCoy family responsible for your mom’s death? Oh my God! What are we supposed to do now?”


    Carol couldn’t help but feel it was too much drama. “What are we going to do?”


    By the time Dani and Carol were heading back, the clock had already slipped past four. Empty streets stretched endlessly under the dim glow of the streetlights.


    Fog crept across the ss, casting a ghostly chill over the inside of the car.


    Carol broke the silence with a frustrated groan. “So now what? What’s your next move? And Cedric—what about him? His father is a monster. He dumped his own kid into an orphanage, and one of them even killed your mother. It’s insane.”


    Carol’s rant didn’t stop there. She kept going, one breath rolling into the next.


    As the car finally rolled to a stop outside the vi, Carol leaned closer and lowered her voice. “Dani, listen. This mess isn’t Cedric’s fault. Don’t take it out on him, okay? Ande on, they only said ‘Mr. McCoy’—that could be anyone. Maybe it’s not even Cedric’s family.”


    Nothing on Dani’s face gave away how she felt. She had already gone over every detail in her head. Winslow’s reasoning hadn’t left any holes.

    A person who was about to spend the rest of his life in prison would cooperate for his daughter’s sake.


    Carol let her shoulders drop and sighed. “So what now? What are you nning to do?”


    Without offering a single word, Dani stepped out and pushed the vi door open.


    Later that night, Mose sent Cedric a message. “Boss, rinda turned the man over to me. But he didn’t make it. Got ambushed halfway—he’s dead.”


    Still groggy from sleep, Cedric blinked at his screen.


    Sitting at the edge of the bed, he stared into nothing for what felt like ages. When he finally got up and headed downstairs, the first thing he did was tell Dani.


    Dani didn’t react.


    Brows furrowed, Cedric nced at her. “Wasn’t Winslow supposed to be important? He’s gone now. Aren’t you even a little shaken?”


    Dani gave only a nod, barely noticeable, before turning and walking away.


    Cedric asked if Dani would be back for lunch. No answer came.
