Chapter 1745


    "I''ve had people scouring the city and even Dawnstar for any sign of Martha, but she''s nowhere to be


    found."


    If Eunice ever got her hands on Martha, she''d give Martha a taste of her own medicine, with a good


    old-fashioned p-fest and a no-holds-barred spanking.


    The chaos in this household was Martha''s handiwork, no doubt.


    "There was this one time, I got a tip-off that someone had put a hit out on Be. I managed to nab the


    hitman, but the guy was tight-lipped about who was behind it all. That is, until Be showed up. Julian


    —well, he made the guy an offer. Spill the beans, and he''d get a shiny new identityplete with a


    faked death certificate."


    Neither Keh nor Louisa could believe someone had tried to off Be, let alone that she was cool as


    a cucumber, even negotiating with the hitman. Any other heiress would''ve been scared stiff.


    Be''s nerves of steel were something else.


    "Be gave him two days to think it over. However, by the end of the second day, he was dead."


    Keh and Louisa were in disbelief. How could such a coincidence happen? Was it foul y?


    "I saw Serena with him right before it all went down. At first, I thought she had something to do with it."


    Before Eunice could finish, Keh interjected, shocked, "You mean to say Serena killed him?"

    She''s been scared of her own shadow since she was a kid, let alone murder.


    "Let her finish." Louisa said, her voice quivering with shock. It was unthinkable that their sweet little girl,


    raised for eighteen years under their roof, could be linked to a murder.


    "Be gave the hitman two days to decide, right? On thest day, the guy must''ve had an epiphany. He


    told one of my guys from the basement that he wanted to see Ms. Collins. My guy thought he meant


    Serena and sent for her. Then it was just Serena and him. No signs of a struggle at the scene, no fatal

    poison ingested. His hands and feet were still bound, but he definitely died from suffocation. I


    suspected Serena for a while until another guy from the Doom gang we had locked up—Hugh—wanted


    to save his own skin and spilled the beans. Turns out, the hitman had a change of heart that night,


    wanted a fresh start. When Serena showed up, he made it clear he wasn''t looking for her, but another


    "He asked ifing clean meant his freedom and a new identity. Serena had no clue what he was on


    about but yed it cool, saying, ''That depends on you telling the whole truth.''"


    "So he recounted the whole saga of being hired for the hit. Serena was petrified when she recognized


    the phone number he gave—it was one of Martha''s burners, hardly known by anyone. To protect


    Martha, Serena covertly contacted her, and Martha instructed her to take out the hitman."


    "But Serena had never done anything like that, especially not to a hitman. So, she followed Martha''s


    script, iming she and Martha were with Doom, dropping the gang''s secret codes. She told the


    hitman he was marked for death for his failure. If he didn''t die, everyone close to him would suffer."
