After ending the call, Quintessa shut down her computer, slipped into casual black sweats, donned a face mask and a hat, and slipped out into the night.

She had no choice but to comply. Later, she got pregnant and Sean’s wife, Lilian, found out. She stormed over and kicked your sister in the stomach repeatedly. Your sister was four months pregnant at the time. She miscarried right there, bled out, a life for two lives. The couple saw a dead body, conspired to destroy the evidence, and then faked. the news that your sister’s resigned and moved abroad.”

Quintessa tossed an envelope to Yolanda.

Opening it, Yolanda found a couple of yellowed photographs, one of which showed her
