CH 152 ~ Rennie's Funeral

The media frenzy intensified as the long-anticipated black car halted at the cemetery's entrance.

Undeterred by the pouring rain, the reporters surrounded the vehicle with microphones and cameras in their hands.

"Mr. Crawford! What are your thoughts on your wife's unexpected demise?"

"Was her death truly accidental, or was it murder?"

"Do you have any suspicions about who might commit such an act?"

As the questions flew, Alex emerged from the car, shielded by an umbrella Neil held above him, while bodyguards struggled to clear a path through the crowd for their boss.

"CEO Crawford!"

"Why aren't you responding? Please, we need your comments!"

The reporters persisted in their pursuit as Alex continued to ignore them, silently making his way into the cemetery clad in a full black suit.
