When their mother was alive, the three brothers lived carefree lives.

Without her, they were nothing.

As Marco spoke, Noel quickly added, "Brother, I'm not backing out. But instead of using a knife, we could just throw her into the sea. Her hands and feet are tied-she won't be able to escape. The deep sea is full of fish. Soon, she'll be eaten, leaving no trace. That's better than us using a knife."

The truth was, none of them had ever killed anyone before.

They had done plenty of bad things, but murder was a line they hadn't crossed.

With the knife in one hand, Marco squatted down and grabbed Kathryn's chin with the other. His grip was firm, his eyes burning with fury.

"Kathryn, I'm asking you one last time. What's the password? I'll count to three. If you don't talk, don't blame me for what happens next. You'll die in pain.'
