I Didn’t Come Home Last Night
Someone knocked on the door in the morning.
My brother, Shane, woke up with a start and ran downstairs to open the door.
Seeing that it was just the cleaning lady, he hid his disappointment and went back upstairs.
He took out his phone and scrolled through numerous messages.
Eventually, he stopped at our conversation thread.
There were no messages from me.
I found it strange and sat down beside him.
“Shane, are you worried about me?” I asked.
Then I chuckled to myself.
How could that be possible?
He was probably just thinking how bold I was to stay out all night and not even reply to
his messages.
In the morning, a garbage collector found my body.
At first, he thought it was discarded pork.
But then he saw the fingers and was so scared out of his wits he almost fainted.
The police quickly took away the pieces of my body.
Shane saw the news alert on his phone.
He glanced at it but didn’t pay much attention.

Chapter 12 12
I figured it wouldn’t be long before the autopsy results came out.
The incident caused a sensation.
For several days, the news was all about this heinous murder case.
In these two days, Shane called Irene several times, but she didn’t answer.
Irene only replied to him on WeChat.
“Shane, I’m tied up here. I’ll reach out when I’m free, okay?”
I drifted to Irene’s side.
They were planning their next move with Carson.
Irene was in a panic, crying and shouting at Carson.
“Are you crazy?! Why did you kill her?! She’s the Nash family’s daughter!”
“If the Nash family finds out, we’re all doomed!”
Carson slapped Irene hard.
“It’s because you’re useless! Two years, and where are the secrets?!”
“Besides, everyone knows Shane despises Caitlin.”
“Do you think he’d care if she died? Your main job now is to keep him calm…”
“And once we get the secrets, the Nash family will be finished sooner or later. What are you so scared of? The more you panic, the quicker everything will fall apart!”
