Dead.

The next day, news spread like wildfire. The eldest son of the Sinclair family, Alex Sinclair, had been involved in a tragic accident. His car had set on fire, and unfortunately, he hadn't survived. Lily and Cage watched the news report, their faces a mix of relief and lingering anxiety. It seemed Abby had really come through for them. Remo had taken care of everything.

"S-she really helped us," Lily stammered, her voice thick with shame. "I-I didn't think she would."

Cage's expression was solemn, his thoughts drifting back to his conversation with Abby. He had seen the pain in her eyes, the betrayal, and yet she had still chosen to help them. "Abby is stronger than we gave her credit for," he said quietly.
