“Rena! Is what Anastasia said true?!” Mr. and Mrs. Jones exclaimed in shock and anger.
Rena’s hands were drenched in sweat. “I…”
But Anastasia wasn’t finished with her. “And Grandma, if you didn’t know where my mother went, then how did you find out about her death?”
“A few years after your mother left, someone sent an anonymous tip. It included proof of her accidental death…”
“We didn't want to believe it at first, but we never heard from your mother again, so we had to accept it.”
Anastasia then looked at Wayne, who said through his pain, “It was the same for me.”
“There’s something I haven’t told anyone,” Anastasia said. “My mother… she didn’t die in an accident. She was murdered!”
“What?!”
Wayne and Mr. and Mrs. Jones reacted violently.
“What happened? Who killed her? Who murdered my daughter?!” the lady demanded in a grief-stricken voice.
Anastasia said calmly, “I don’t know. I still haven't been able to find out who was behind it, and they didn't want to let me go either, even trying to harm me when I was a child. But I think someone here knows exactly who did it—”
Her gaze suddenly fell on Colby, who had remained silent the entire time. “Isn’t that right, Uncle Murray?”
It was the first time she had ever called him that.
“Colby?!” All eyes snapped to Colby. “You know who killed your sister?!”
