Chapter 672: Less logical
Silence dominated the family room of the old Zhu residence. No one in the room dared to break the silence, allowing themselves to absorb the unspoken tension that hung heavily in the air. Each member sat in their respective seats, avoiding eye contact, wrestling with their thoughts and feelings about the news Tiger brought to them.
"That’s impossible," Bear was the first to break the prolonged silence reigning in the room. "We buried her."
He slowly raised his head, arms resting on his spread legs, scanning the faces in the room. Except for Dominic, everyone in the room had been at Hera’s funeral. All of them had their own stories from that day, but they all shared the heartache of closing the casket and watching it being buried with nothing but earth.
"We were all there as they closed her casket," he continued under his breath. "She can’t be alive."
Princess’s face hardened as she remembered that painful memory from the past. Even though she didn’t stay as long as Bear and Tiger, who had dug a grave pit next to hers, she had looked after them.
"It’s impossible," she said, setting her eyes on Heaven, who was sitting on the long couch with Dominic. "Bear and Tiger camped there for several days after the burial. If someone else exhumed the body, then the safest bet was a month after the burial."
"Could it be that Alexander is lying?" On the coffee table in the middle were two devices connected to Wolf and Joker. The one speaking was Wolf, as this news was truly unfathomable.
"He could be, but we know Dragon. That crafty bastard won’t simply target him if No One simply keeps running his mouth about marrying her," Joker joined in the conversation. "He needed a deeper reason for him to walk out of his den on his own."
Another wave of silence descended into the room after Joker’s remarks.
