WISH IT UNFOLDS

Chapter 24: Unfold

Flashback

At McCarthy's Mansion in America

Two weeks ago, a gaunt and disheveled man arrived at the house in search of Veronica. He appeared extremely ill, his ragged appearance contrasting sharply with the opulence of the mansion.

"I'm looking for your madame, Veronica," he addressed the security guard. Gerald, who had just returned from his morning jog, observed the scene with curiosity.

"What do you want from her?" the security guard inquired, attempting to prevent the stranger from entering.

"I need to see her. I'm dying, and I need my money from her."

"Who are you?"

"I'm the man who helped her here!" the man shouted.

Tensions escalated as the commotion grew. The security guard swiftly dialed Veronica's number, informing her about the situation unfolding at the entrance.

"Don't let him in."
