“When your mother married your father, he was so smitten by her that he would literally do anything for her.
Your dad, my best son, it painsto see him like this. That's why I've been hard on your mother. Had | known it
would lead to this, | would have acted differently...”
In the midst of the conversation, Wesley, who had been quiet till now, voiced out in a somber tone, “Father, all
these years, I've been wandering the globe. But in reality, I've been secretly probing into the mystery
surrounding my brother's untimely demise.”
“You...” Aldo was taken aback. His face blanched, his lips trembling, he stuttered, “You foolish child, we've
combed through it innumerable times, the conclusion always being that it was merely an accident.”
Unmoved by Aldo’s words, Rowan maintained a frosty expression and spat out, “I don’t believe it.”

Tears welling up in his eyes, Wesley inquired, “Rowan, did you uncover any substantial proof?”
“No,” Rowan replied, his lips tightening as he sighed deeply, “I simply have this gut feeling that my brother
wouldn't just die in a car crash.
Someone's behind this!”
“But there aren't any leads!” Aldo clutched his chest, voice laden with exhaustion, “Regardless of our efforts, it
points to an accident. It's done and dusted. Stop exerting yourself further.”
Rowan and Wesley however remained silent, locking eyes but offering no response.
The demise of the Torres family’s eldest son, Farley, was a topic shunned in the household. Everyone refrained

This was Loraine’s first exposure to the intricate details of her parents’ death before her family, and she was
visibly shocked.
“Rowan, Wesley, do you genuinely suspect foul play?”
Aldo’s face turned even more ashen, unnoticed by the others, as he clutched his heart even tighter.
After a heavy sigh, Rowan began in a subdued voice, “The incident from that year was abrupt and riddled with
ambiguity...”

Wesley, wearing a look of anguish, nodded in agreement with a rueful smile.
“Indeed. They had merely taken Lorrie for a spring outing in the countryside when their car plummeted off the
cliff, ending in a catastrophic crash. There was no trace of anything. Could it have been a brake failure or some
unforeseen occurrence? No one knew. In those days, cars weren't equipped with vehicle recorders, and the route
was devoid of surveillance, leaving us without any insights.”
But the most pressing question...
The two brothers glanced at Loraine, their faces a mix of confusion and relief.
“Lorrie, you should've been in the car that day, but you strangely weren't. It's fortunate that you weren't aboard,
which allowed you to survive miraculously.”
