Felicia turned around, shocked and scared for the first time at this son she’d taken in halfway through his life.
“You don’t have to do this … I–I can help you! I can give you everything back! Just let me go, and I’ll treat you like my own son; everything I have will be yours. Just please, let me go!”
Chris just stood there, quietly watching her cry and beg, watching her throw out desperate, ugly bribes. The person he once saw as this impossible mountain didn’t feel so big anymore.
He let out a coldugh, stopped caring about her struggles and curses, and turned, walking straight into the fire without hesitation.

By morning, the news that Chris had started a massive fire and died with Felicia was everywhere.
When Tracy saw it, she froze, unsure what she was feeling.
Then Ronald’s voice broke the silence. “Tracy, the ne’s about to take off. You should turn off your phone.”
Tracy snapped back, as if she’d been reading about a stranger. She shut her phone, pushing all her thoughts aside.
Because of the will thewyer brought, Tracy had been dyed a few days before finally meeting the donor.
The man was a college professor, Keh Hewitt, with a kind and gentle face.
When Tracy showed him Erin’s photo, he recognized her immediately. “I remember this youngdy–she’s something else.
“Over all these years, she’s the first person I’ve met who can make someone rx with just a few words.”

Keh’s face showed full, honest admiration for Erin, but Tracy’s chest tightened.

Whether it was the Jackmans, friends, or even the bodyguard outside Franklin’s hospital room back then–whenever they faced Erin, they’d unconsciously rx and treat her words likew.
It really was strange, almost like magic.
Tracy pushed the thought aside and asked about the driver he’d personally helped financially.
Keh told the truth, since it wasn’t something to hide. “When Ms. Jackman mentioned it, I remembered and had someone check. That man really did need help.
“As for calling myself … normally I wouldn’t, but I thought of what Ms. Jackman said–how he’d been scammed by fame–chasing fake phnthropists. I figured if I called myself, he’d believe
it.”
Back then, Erin’s words had sounded casual, but Keh had taken them seriously, remembered them, and actually made the call.
Thinking of that, Keh looked full of regret. “If I’d known what would happen, I never should’ve called. Or at least waited until he got home.”
He knew the call led to the man getting into a car ident on the way home and killing someone, but he didn’t know the two young people in front of him hade because of it.
Tracy didn’t exin. Once she was done asking her questions, she left with Ronald.
Even though she was almost certain Erin had caused Walter’s ident, there were still too many mysteries.

Thinking about all this, Tracy’s brow stayed tight, and she had no leads at all.
It was like the trail had
gone
cold.
Seeing her frown every day, Ronald wanted to tell her to take a break, but he couldn’t.

Instead, he tried to help her think. “Tracy, if you can’t find the lead, let the leade to you.”
If you’ve done nothing wrong, there’s nothing to fear.
If Erin knew they had gone to Keh and “found something,” she’d get nervous and make a
move.
And if she acted, they’d have a chance to catch her messing up.
Because of this n, Tracy didn’t rush back to Cloudville. Ronald dragged her around like they were on vacation.
She knew he was trying to help her rx, and she went along without refusing. After a while, she really did feel a lot better.
