Stes eyes narrowed as a realization struck her.


    Is Robin.


    Robin Wheeler? Dexter gave a firm nod.


    Yes, its Robin Wheeler.


    Ste hadnt anticipated that this matter would entangle the Wheeler family.


    Her thoughts grew heavy as she considered the implications, wondering if Lindsay was involved or if this was solely Robins doing.


    Snapping out of her contemtion, she addressed Dexter with resolve.


    Keep investigating.


    We need concrete evidence. If the evidence is strong enough, ensure they face justice.


    We cant let them walk away from this.


    Dexter gave a brisk nod.


    Understood.


    He hesitated for a moment before adding, However, the investigation into the warehouse fire hasnt yielded much progress yet.


    Ill need more time to dig deeper.


    Stes frown deepened, her expression clouded with concern.


    Frustrationced her voice as she said, I didnt think the warehouse fire would be such a tough nut to crack.


    Could it have been orchestrated by someone else? Who else might I have offended recently? Unable to piece the puzzle together, she sighed and instructed Dexter, Keep investigating and inform me immediately if you uncover anything new.


    Dexter gave a sharp nod of agreement and prepared to leave. As the workday came to a close, Ste decided to leave as well.


    As they walked together, she shared details of her conflicts with Robin, hoping the additional context might aid Dexter in his investigation.


    At the studio entrance, Fernando was already waiting in the drivers seat.


    He stiffened at the sight of Ste, deep in conversation with a young man.


    Concern flickered across his face as he instinctively nced into the rearview mirror at Matthew, who was seated in the back.


    Fernandos eyes sought to gauge Matthews reaction.


    As expected, Matthews face was grim, his eyes clearly showing displeasure.


    Fernando wanted to speak up and exin things on Stes behalf, but Matthew cut him off with a coldmand, Drive.


    Left with no choice, Fernando fell silent, started the car, and drove away.


    Meanwhile, after finishing her discussion with Dexter, Ste was about to ask if he needed a ride home when a sleek, high-end car suddenly sped by. The car moved so quickly that she barely caught a glimpse of it.


    For a fleeting moment, she wondered if it might belong to the rk family, but she quickly dismissed the idea.


    Her reasoning was simple-while her rtionship with Matthew had improved recently, it hadnt reached the point where they were inseparable.


    Unless something urgent hade up, he wouldnt go out of his way toe to her studio at this time.


    Shrugging off the thought, she turned back to Dexter and asked, How are you getting back? Dexter replied politely, Mr.


    Lowell arranged a car for me.


    Then, after a brief pause, he offered, Would you like a ride? Ste declined with a smile.


    No need.


    You go ahead, and take care on the road.
