Claire took the towel from her husband and wiped her tears. She pulled Athena up and said, "Athena, sit down and tell me in detail. Tell me about the Rose family and Zilvia... Tell me as much as you know... I want to know everything. The others all sat down and quietly listened to Athena.

Athena told them everything she knew.

Claire's eyes were filled with tears when she heard that. However her eyes and expression slowly became calm. There was bitterness, sadness, and even more so, relief.

After listening to Athena's story, Claire wiped her tears again and held Athena's hand. "Athena, if there's a chance, you must tell Zilvia that Mom and Dad will always love her until death and are waiting for her to come back." Tears suddenly welled up in Athena's eyes as she said, "Yes, I will tell her."

Jaden placed his hand on her shoulder and said calmly, "By the way, tell her it doesn't matter if she needs us. The important thing is that she is and will always be our sister."

Outside the window, the sky had turned from pure black to dark gray.

It was almost dawn.

The Donovan family finally quieted down.

The same nightmare that haunted them finally left them.

Athena sat in front of the computer and wrote an ending to Lara's case, an ending that stemmed from reality.

The Stevens family decided to fulfill Lara's wish and stop investigating her disappearance. They stopped trying to find her and she did her best to stop her current parents from hurting the Stevens family. It was a regretful but gratifying ending.

After she finished writing, Athena decisively clicked on "the end.

It was almost dawn, and many office workers woke up. Soon, they discovered the chapter that had just been updated, "The Finale." Surprised and delighted, they left comments: [The early bird gets the worm!] [It's the finale? I'm the first to see the finale. I'm so lucky!]

However, just as the readers were excitedly reading to the end and thought they had finally finished reading the finale, they noticed the last few lines.

2. 2.

[Lockwood looked up at the white light on the horizon. His eyes were still fixed on the night.]

[There was indeed a conclusion to this case.]

[However, significant doubts remain in this case, and important persons have yet to appear.]

The End]

The readers' excitement and smugness dissipated in an instant.

They left comments one after another. [No way. It's already the finale, but we're still left in suspense. And it's a big one!!

[I'm okay with romance novels that come with open endings or suspense, but this is a detective novel! Such a big case has

already been closed, and there's still suspense. Isn't this killing the readers?]

Is there a third installment? Well, according to the rules, the next one will probably take years, right?]

[I've read this story very seriously and feel that the case is very clear. I can't see any doubts in this case. Is there any important person who hasn't appeared?]

Just as the readers were discussing what the so-called "significant doubts" and "important people" were, some readers sent out a series of doubts.

I remember the author posted a chapter of 'Extermination' as the finale when it was almost two in the morning. Why did a new chapter appear at dawn? I'm a university student. There's nothing wrong with my eyes. There's no way I saw it wrongly.] [I read it too. In 'Extermination, Lara and the Stevens family perished together. I was so pissed...]

[I took pictures of the chapter in case an error code appeared. This chapter is divided into three pages: I only took a picture of the last page. I'll let you guys see...]

When this page was revealed, all the readers were shocked.

[Fuck, it's indeed the 'Extermination. Everyone died other than Lockwood?]

[This ending is a little tragic, but don't you think it's very exciting?]

[From the looks of it, the author first posted this chapter, but for some reason, it changed to the current chapter. Could she have been threatened? Otherwise, why would the case she wrote be repeatedly attacked by hackers?] [Hey, don't forget the author is a super big shot in reality. She's Mr. Graham's fiancée. Who can threaten her?]

[As the saying goes, there is more danger from a pretended friend than from an enemy. Perhaps Lockwood is in danger...]

This topic stirred up another waves of discussions.

Many readers left messages on Lockwood's Twitter to ask if she was threatened and was forced to revise the ending of the work.

They asked if there was a third installment and when the so-called "significant doubts" and "important people would be revealed.

Lockwood rarely posted a response: [Different choices lead to different outcomes. When I was thinking about the ending, I suddenly had an impulse to write an exciting ending, so I casually wrote the first version]

[Then I found the ending illogical and not fitting the persona. I decided to stop and rewrote a reasonable version of the ending.]

[As for whether there will be a third installment, that depends.]

Then she played a dead ear no matter how the readers and netizens reacted.

She had been busy last night doing brain-consuming work. She had slept from morning to afternoon and still felt sleepy. So it made sense she continued to catch up on sleep after eating.

It was early in the morning in Swereo.

A beautiful and charming noblewoman sat on the balcony by the lake. She retracted her gaze from the distant mountain, As she tasted the pure kopi luwak, she clicked on her phone to look at the trending list of Osceiton. With one look, her eyes widened slightly, revealing an expression of disbelief, envy, and jealousy.
