The Returning Ex

Elder Mr. Bailey’s room door was locked from the inside. Isabelle knocked a few times before she heard his low voice from within. “Who is it?”

Sighing, she announced, “Grandpa, it’s me.”

It only took a while for him to unlock the door. He appeared to be in a better condition than last night and was probably the first member of the Bailey Family to accept the harsh reality.

Isabelle walked in and took out the post-mortem report, which she handed to him. He was initially confused as he received the report, but he soon understood what it was and let out a sigh. “That kid… Why did he take things too hard?”

Feeling regretful, Isabelle replied, “About Dexter… I think that we should probably hide this incident from the public.”

At the moment of speaking, Dexter’s cause of death was announced to the public as the fatal car crash. If they revealed that Dexter died of suicide, Isabelle feared that it would make the Bailey Family look bad.
