Chapter 303: Bodies
William clenched his jaw, forcing himself to maintain his composure. The woman’s tone, the tilt of her head, even the way she spoke... it was unnervingly similar to his sister-in-law. If he didn’t know better, he might have been fooled.
’She’s good... too good,’ he thought grimly. But no amount of acting can replace the real Rain Lancaster!
Sanya, sitting quietly beside him, reached out to pat the impostor’s hand. "I understand how difficult this must be for you," she said gently, though her eyes betrayed a flicker of doubt. William clearly noticed that. "But you’re not alone. We’ll help you through this."
William stole a glance at Sanya, silently admiring her ability to stay calm. ’She’s handling this better than I am,’ he thought. But internally, his mind raced. This woman might fool some people, but not us. We’ll expose this farce soon enough.
"Let’s not overwhelm her for now," Tim said, breaking the silence. "I’ll make sure she gets enough rest."
William nodded, but his thoughts were far from restful. As he stood to leave the room, he made a mental note to contact his brother Alexander immediately.
Meanwhile, Alexander was on the edge of losing his composure as he sat in the car, waiting for any news. He was desperate to act, but he knew there could be eyes watching him at any moment.
The phone in his hand blinked, signaling an incoming call. He immediately answered, unable to wait another second.
"I managed to get inside," Clifford’s voice came through quickly, "and I saw something suspicious. They treated Rain first, but then they probably swapped her in the operating room. I saw a dead body being moved, heading to the morgue, but it didn’t go there. Instead, the body was taken to the basement parking lot. It could be Rain, but I can’t confirm. The body was covered with a white cloth."
