“It’s Carmen… she’s in trouble.”

“Carmen?” Quill’s face frore. A sinking feeling surged in his chest. “What happened to her?”

“She’s been detained by the police. She’s suspected of… murder.”

“Murder?” Quill shot to his feet, completely stunned. “What are you talking about? My daughter, murder?”

The assistant didn’t know the full details. All Quill could do was grab Owen and rush out “Let’s go to the station, How!”

Owen wiped cold sweat from his brow. This time, The Yuncey Family might be in real trouble.”

When they arrived at the police station and got the facts, the full story hit them like a truck.

Turns out, during the interrogation of Philip–the man previously arrested in Zahra’s case–he finally confessed: Carmen was the one who ordered him to kill Zahra. She wanted to frame Caitlin

Inside the visitation room, Quill was allowed to see his daughter, Carmen, eyes red and puffy, immediately clutched at his sleeve, begging. “Dad, please! You have to get me out! Please do something!”

Quill, exhausted and furious, snapped at her. “How could you be so stupid?! How could you get involved in something like this?”

He lowered his voice. “Just deny it. Say you never told Philip to do anything. Let Owen handle the rest, understand?”

Carmen nodded tearfully. “Okay…I understand.”

Quill’s temples throbbed. His daughter behind bars, his son arrested for sexual assault… And Timothy didn’t even know yet. found out, he’d explode.

Right now,

his priority was simple: do whatever it takes to get his children out of this mess.

The media, however, was relentless. No amount of PR could stop the firestorm. Quill had hired multiple agencies to push soft pieces, trying to drown out the bad press, but none of it worked.

Douglas’s rape scandal was still trending #1, Now Carmen’s suspected murder was climbing fast–right behind it at #2.

The Yuncey siblings had both gone down, and the internet was ablaze with speculation. Netizens eagerly devoured the drama.

Quill had ordered the entire family; no one was to tell Timothy about Carmen.

That evening at the old mansion, the dining table felt unusually empty.

Only Greta and Millie showed up. Timothy frowned, clearly displeased. “Where is everyone? Why is no one here ag

Greta nervously tried to cover it up. “Dad, Quill handling Douglas’s situation, and Carmen went to the hospital to visit her grandma. Let’s just eat–no need to wait.

Just then, Caitlin wheeled Taylor into the dining hall “Timothy, I brought Taylor to join you for dinner.”

Timothy’s expression softened. He quickly gestured for the staff to pull out a chair next to him. “is Hayden not coming?”

“He’s caught up with something,” Taylor replied

“Alright then Let’s eat.”

But Taylor didn’t lift her utensils. She glanced around the near–empty table. It feels like fewer and fewer people want to eat with end in i because of my presence? If I’m making others uncomfortable, I’ll leave.“

She

he made a show of wheeling herself away, but Timothy quickly stopped her. “It’s not because of you. Douglas got into trouble, and handling it. Carmen is at the hospital with Rachel.”

Taylor tilted her head, feigning surprise. “I was planning to visit Hachel after dinner… but I could’ve sworn I saw a news report that said Carmen was arrested.”

Timothy blinked, stunned. “What did you say?”

Greta jumped in fast. “Dad, ignore that nonsense. Carmen’s perfectly fine. Why would she be arrested?

Timothy turned a sharp eye on Greta and Millle. Their faces were pale, their eyes evasive.

He looked to Caitlin. “Caitlin, you tell me. What’s going on?”

Caitlin sighed. “Timothy, if I tell you the truth, please brace yourself.”

“Just say it.””

“Carmen was taken by police yesterday. She’s a suspect in a murder investigation.”

“Murder? Who?”

“It seems she was behind Zahra’s death–she allegedly hired Philip to kill her and tried to pin it on me. Philip’s already confessed to the police.”

The cup in Timothy’s hand shattered as it hit the floor. He stood, trembling with rage.

“You knew all this, and you kept it from me?!” he barked at Greta.

“I’m sorry, Dad!” Greta cried. “We didn’t want to upset you…

Millie added quickly. “We were trying to handle it. Both Douglas and Carmen are in trouble–we didn’t know what else to do.”

“Crying won’t solve anything!” Timothy was beyond furious. “Call Quill! Tell him to come back immediately!”

He stormed out of the dining room, leaning heavily on his cane, Greta and Millie scrambled after him, both glaring daggers at Caitlin on their

way yout.

Once they were gone, Taylor turned to Caitlin. “Caillin, would you mind taking me to the hospital?”

“Of course, Taylor.”

They headed for the hospital, where Rachel was still recovering.

Rachel lay in bed, a maid quietly tending to Her

She was physically stable now and set to be discharged the next day. But no one had come to visit her in two days, which made her deeply suspicious.

“Where is everyone!” she asked. “Not one person’s shown up?”

The maid carefully deflected, “Maybe the company’s been busy. The young masters and ladies must be tied up.”
