The Fragrance Queen's Final Note novel Chapter 97

Though he had no idea what had happened, Stanley calmly gave the order, "To Westwood Bridge."

The message from Dennis was just five short words:

"I am at Westwood Bridge."

He didn't say anything else, but Queenie had a terrible premonition.

She had a sinking feeling that something was wrong.

She also had massive questions she needed to ask him.

That was why she was in such a frantic rush.

She didn't even wait for the men in the car to ask what was going on.

Stanley's dark eyes watched the direction she disappeared in, waiting until the flow of traffic completely swallowed her silhouette before he finally said, "Let's go."

Queenie stood on the nearly thousand-foot-long Westwood Bridge, looking around, but there was no sign of Dennis.

She texted him: "I'm here. Where are you?"

"Walk straight, turn right, under the third arch, there's a wooden box."

A rushed voice message came through.

With a grim expression, Queenie hurried to the third arch under the bridge, following his instructions.

Sure enough, hidden in the weeds, she found an earthy-yellow wooden box.

She quickly opened it and found an old pocket watch and a medical record inside.

The medical record clearly read:

"Dennis Dalton, 29 years old, Stage IV Leukemia..."

A look of pure horror washed over Queenie's face. She had thought the man might be sick, but she had no idea it was this severe.

No wonder he said his time was running out...
