I did not want to fall asleep because I was afraid I would dream of the scene of Matthew's death.
However, I was exhausted and drained.
Thus, when Theo walked out of the bathroom, I was already drifting off to sleep.
I no longer had any energy to push him away when he climbed into bed and clambered under the covers to hold me tightly. Thus, I let him do what he wanted to d o.
At five in the morning, I was startled awake by a nightmare. Theo was not beside me, and I picked up m y phone from the bedside table to call Tyler after I calmed myself down slightly.
The phone rang seemingly forever before Tyler asked i n a hoarse voice, "Wandy, what's up?"
I took a deep breath. "Never mind, I'll text you."
I hung up the phone when I finished saying that.
After that, I typed out a long text message. The contents included Matthew's cause of death and also my request for him to help keep an eye on Quinn.
When I heard the bedroom door opening, I put my phone down, lay back down, and pretended I had never woken up.
The public was in an uproar when news of Matthew’s death broke out.
Quinn could not avoid being brought into the limelight because of how the father, son, and wife had all died one after the other in such a short period. Everyone was wondering if she was the one who killed them because she wanted to get Zimmer Corporations for herself.
Of course, not only did Quinn have to face questions from the public but she also needed to be investigated by the police.
