Nelson gave the coroner a nod, signaling him to take samples from the statue. The next step was clear; they needed to figure out how to open the sculpture and see if it concealed a body.
The statue belonged to Luke, and Nelson had to follow the proper procedures.
The result of thismotion was that everyone knew what was happening.
Car after car pulled up.
Luke, pallid with panic, exited his vehicle.
Ignoring Jeffrey inside, he rushed straight to Nelson''s side.
Adam and She were helping Jeffrey, who was leaning on a cane. His assistant hurried to cover him with a cloak and hold an umbre as they slowly made their way over. Following them was the Sanders'' car. The door opened, and immediately, my mom hurried out.
Her high heels sank into the snow. She lost her bnce, falling straight down.
My brother rushed over to help her up and brush the snow from her clothes. My mom, however, eagerly dashed forward.
"Mom, slow down, the snow makes the ground slippery!"
My dad stepped out through another door. His face was expressionless, but a brief sh ofplexity in his eyes betrayed his emotions.
Anna, on the other hand, was uncharacteristically cold and distant.
At that moment, everyone from the Sanders and Boltons'' households had arrived.
As evening fell, the streetlights in the yard flickered on, casting a dim yellow light. Snowkes continued to fall, and it seemed the storm was growing heavier.
It reminded me of the night I died. The snow was just as heavy.
Back then, I was cold, in pain, terrified, and helpless.
But now, I no longer felt cold.
My mom hurried forward and grabbed Nelson''s sleeve. She asked, "Captain Tucker, have you found Chloe? Is she found?"
She was torn between wanting to find my body and fearing to find my corpse.
Sometimes, no news was the best news. Once there was a clue, it would shatter whatever fragile hope remained. Nelson''s face turned serious as he said, "We suspect that Ms. Chloe''s body is hidden inside this statue."

My mom''s expression changed drastically. My brother''s usual smile vanished, He asked, "What? Captain Tucker, is this a joke? Let''s push aside whether my sister is really dead, who hides a body in her marriage home after a murder?" "The most dangerous ce is often the safest, those words aren''t unfounded," Nelson replied, his tone resolute.
Anna stepped forward slowly, her eyes narrowing. "Captain Tucker, how did you determine that Chloe''s body is inside? Do you have any proof?"
The statue, sealed, weighed a considerable amount. From the exterior, there was no way to tell if it concealed a body.
In order to avoid damaging potential evidence, the police decided to drill a small hole into the sculpture and use scanning equipment to check for a body inside
The hole hadn''t even been opened yet when Anna asked her pointed question. Captain Tucker kept a stern face and replied, "From our observations, this statue is unusual, so we suspect...

Anna smiled coldly and said, "They say police work is meticulous and based on evidence, yet you''re making such amotion without any proof. What, if you suspect there''s something wrong about our house, are you nning to blow it up and inspect it?" "Ms. Sander, we consulted Mr. Bolton. We''ve received his permission to investigate. What exactly are you suspicious of? Or you don''t want your sister''s body to be found?"
Nelson had his doubts about Anna too, but the cleverness of Anna was in her ability to look obviously guilty, but they couldn''t uncover a single shred of evidence. As Anna had said, without evidence, they couldn''t just arrest her and send her to court.
With ease, Anna responded, "Of course, I want to find Chloe. I just question your methods." Before she could continue, someone interrupted, saying, "We''re here." Nelson, uninterested in exining further, nodded. "Check if there''s anything inside."
I watched anxiously from the side. They hadn''t hidden the full body! The statue was empty
inside.
Anna''s brilliance was precisely in this: even if someone suspected the statue, if they opened it and found nothing, the suspicion would be cleared.
The secret of this statue would remain forever undiscovered.
After thorough investigation, they came to a conclusion "Captain Tucker, there''s no body or suspicious material inside"
Adam frowned and said, "I didn''t want to criticize you all, but your investigation is sloppy! This is a mess!"
"Dad, the storm''s too fierce. Let''s get you
home."
Jeffrey had probably been hoping to find any clue about my whereabouts, so he hade personally. However, his face was now filled with disappointment, and he sighed helplessly.

My momined, and my dad began to chastise her.

I turned to Carter, who had been silent the entire time. lis gaze was cold as he stared at the statue.
"Wait."
Luke red at him, clearly frustrated. "What for? Uncle Carter, you tricked me into leaving and then brought people back to take samples. What are you suspecting? Do you think I killed Chloe and hid her here?"
"It doesn''t matter what we think. We wait for the results Carter remained calm, sitting like a rock, and no one dared to argue further.
My mom''sints faded. My dad, though still annoyed, held back his temper.
Finally, a car arrived. When the door opened, the person inside rushed out eagerly.
"We found it, Captain Tucker!"
The officer was ecstatic, holding the report in his hand.
Nelson, weighed down by pressure, asked, "What did you find?"
"The body. It''s inside the statue!"
"That''s impossible! We already checked! There''s nothing in there!" Luke denied it immediately.
The officer panted, exining, "The reason there''s no visible body is because someone mixed the deceased''s flesh into the construction materials. From our surface sample, we found DNA that matches the blood on the wedding dress. This means the body was shattered and fusedpletely with the statue!"
At these words, everyone''s face turned pale.
Luke grabbed the officer by the cor and asked, "What are you saying?!"
"Mr. Bolton, I know this is hard for you to ept, but this is the result of our analysis. We''ll take the whole statue back for further testing."
Hearing this, I finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The truth was finally out!
But Luke had lost it. "You''re saying... this statue is Chloe?"
The officer nodded carefully and said, "Yes, you can put it that way."
Boom!
My mom fainted, and Luke copsed.
He crumpled to the ground, muttering in disbelief, "No, it can''t be. How could Chloe be like this?
He shakily stood up, staggering towards my statue.

I observed his approach, recalling the time I found myself stranded in the mountains 1fe had run to me without hesitation, risking everything to reach me.N?velDrama.Org ? 2024.
Back then, Luke only had eyes for me.
But why did you change?
Luke staggered through the snow, seemingly sensing my gaze.
He looked up, his face full of disbelief. "C-Chloe, is that you?"
Yes, he finally saw my spirit.
I stood there in a white dress, barefoot in the snow,
I spoke softly, "Luke,"
"Chloe, I know they''re lying! You''lle home to me. We made a promise to grow old together, we..."
A cold wind blew through my hair as I looked him in the eyes and said each word clearly. "The greatest regret of my life is knowing you."
N-no, Chloe, I''m sorry. I don''t know how it happened; I didn''t want this. I really ..."
Tears slid from Luke''s eyes as he fumbled for words. He took slow steps towards me. "Chloe, tell me who did this to you. I''ll avenge you."
I slowly turned my gaze toward Anna and said inly, "The one who harmed me is ...
But at that moment, I couldn''t make a sound. My body started to be transparent.
Luke panicked and lunged forward, trying to hold me down.
The moment he reached for me, my body shattered like Esmee''s, splintering into countless silver-white fragments, scattering like butterflies in the wind. Finally. Is this freedom?
Luke screamed hysterically, "Chloe, no!!!"
He reached out to grab me, but I vanished faster than before.
With a snap, the bracelet on his wrist broke without warning.
