Chapter 86
- As the barrel of the gun rose towards his own head, the air grew heavy with a sense of inevitability. Leon's voice, a desperate plea, cut through the silence. "No, don't do it!" But the words hung in the air like a lament, powerless against the unfolding tragedy. Time fractured, moments stretched into eternity, and then the deafening crack of the gunshot shattered the fragile peace that remained.
- The room was engulfed in chaos once more, a maelstrom of blood, shattered glass, and anguish. The echo of the gunshot seemed to reverberate within the hearts of those left behind, a haunting reminder of the choices made and the lives forever altered. Leon's heart sank as he realized that his plea had fallen on deaf ears, that he had been too late to prevent the irreversible act. The crimson tide of Edward's life painted the scene, a brutal testament to the consequences of vengeance, despair, and a family torn apart.
- In the wake of the tragedy, life took on a somber and mournful tone for Ava and her family. The grief hung heavy in the air, an ever-present reminder of the loss they had endured. Freya, once a pillar of strength, now found herself consumed by tears that flowed freely and uncontrollably. The funeral they had organized for Edward was a somber affair, a heartbreaking culmination of a life cut short.
