Sorry Too Late (by J.J. Twelve) novel Chapter 329

Chapter 329 A Death to Save a Life

“The more chaotic the situation, the easier it would be to strike. Whether Gabriel’s death has anything to do with the plan to assassinate the Iron Dragon, one thing’s certain-the perfect conditions have now fallen into place. Unfortunately for the Black Sun… they had run into me.’

Evan had every intention of protecting the Iron Dragon and Ivana. And he intended to wipe out the Black Suri as well.

Even after Cain carried the coffin away, the suffocating tension in the air didn’t ease in the slightest.

Ciel remained behind with the Obsidian Order, their sheer presence alone enough to make people tremble.

His domineering gaze swept across the crowd. “If you want us gone sooner, then find the one who killed Mr Gabriel-and find him fast.”

A collective chill ran through everyone.

Of course, they wanted to find the killer. But there was no evidence. Evan might have had a motive, but there wasn’t a single piece of proof tying him to the crime.

In the end, everyone could only disperse and try to think of a solution on their own.

Hazel, Roxanne, and Anya returned to Nine Courts as well, their brows tightly furrowed.

“This won’t work… if this continues, Evan is definitely going to be targeted!” Hazel’s delicate face was filled with

anxiety.

After analyzing the situation, they all came to the same conclusion, unless the real killer was found, Evan would inevitably become the scapegoat.

Gabriel had come to Silverton because of Evan. No matter how one looked at it, everything pointed back to him.

“Hazel… we should use the fake death certificate,” Anya said suddenly. “Right now, that’s the only thing that can

save him.’

“Yeah,” Roxanne agreed. “Mr. Solomon still has to return to hold the funeral. That window should be enough for Evan to stage his death.”

Ever since they had learned that Evan had truly done the blood transfusion 100 times, their perception of him had completely changed.

The resentment they once held had been replaced by guilt and regret. They hadn’t even had the chance to make things right, so how could they just stand by and watch him die?

But Hazel remained silent, her gaze conflicted.

Of course, she knew the fake death certificate could save Evan’s life. But it was a last resort.

Once it was used, it would mean Evan was “dead.” From then on, he would have to live in hiding, under a false identity, unable to step into the light. That kind of life was too cruel.

Hazel wanted to see if there was any other way–just like three years ago, when they had managed to save him.

“Hazel, stop hesitating. We’re running out of time,” Anya urged. “Once Mr. Solomon comes back, it’ll be too late.”

Faking a death required preparation. They had to act immediately.

“Alright.” After a fierce internal struggle, Hazel finally agreed. There really wasn’t a better option.

What they didn’t notice was the pair of dark, watchful eyes fixed on them from behind.

After the door closed, Zeke’s expression twisted, shifting unpredictably. His gaze grew colder and darker by the second, his whole body trembling with suppressed rage.

Once upon a time, that fake death certificate had existed so Hazel, Roxanne, and Anya could control Evan, forcing him to give blood. And now, it had become the very thing meant to save him.

“Hazel… Roxanne… Anya…” Zeke let out a cold laugh. “You’ve really outdone yourselves. Go ahead. Try to save him. Let’s see how you manage that.”

He made no move to stop them. In fact, deep down, he hoped they would succeed because if they did, he would get the chance to deal
