Robbie Wright remained silent for a moment before speaking, "Even if Arthur Linklater and Sasha Perez do get married, I'll find you a suitable match, Alyssa. You're my one and only sister. And, hey, try to make amends with Grandpa, will you? You know how upset he was last time. It's important to keep the peace."

Alyssa Wright lowered her head, murmuring softly, "Got it, brother."

But how could any match compare to Arthur?

The next day.

Vivienne Hawthorn and Percival Ellington were at a hospital, where the body from the previous night had just been brought in for examination.

Percival had planned to review the findings first before sharing them with Vivienne, but since she was free, she decided to join him.

Vivienne approached the body and pulled back the white sheet covering the deceased's face. With gloves on, she pressed on the corpse's skin, noting its pallor and rigidity, indicating death had occurred between one to two days ago.

It seemed the victim had not been dead long before her heart was removed.

Inspecting the chest cavity, she noticed the skin was intact, save for a small incision. Whoever had removed the heart had done so with precision, leaving minimal external damage.

After a thorough examination, Vivienne found no other injuries, suggesting the body hadn't been tampered with further.

Despite the tranquility of the victim's expression, the scene was grim.

Leaving the hospital, Percival wrapped his arm around Vivienne, guiding her outside.
