Chapter 899
Helios caught her subconsciously, but it was more like a hug. Barbara’s cheeks rested on his broad shoulders, and her fluffy hair was rubbing against his neck.
He sat stiffly as his Adam’s apple rolled before raising his hand to press her head that was tickling his neck downward.
In a blink of an eye, he felt a sudden pressure being placed on his upper body and realized that Barbara had fallen asleep with her head tilted and resting against his shoulder and neck. Her shallow breaths gently brushed against his neck, and a strange feeling seemed to have found its way into his heart.

The police also uploaded the surveillance video that showed Katrina being hit and killed that night.
In the video, the car stopped for a few seconds after hitting Katrina and then rolled over her body during its escape. The perpetrator’s identity had been spread all over the Internet, and it was a suspect who was involved in a breaking and entering incident that had taken place in Asperia four years ago.
Helios squinted slightly, feeling that Katrina’s accident was not as simple as it looked.
