| picked up the pace as the weight of Ava in my arms grew heavier. As | approached my front door, a shadow darted out from the corner.

“Chloe, it's me... Do you really not know anything about what happened to Atlas?” The figure approached, and | recognized Harmony.
“What are you doing here in the middle of the night?” | snapped, my annoyance thinly veiled. Ava stirred and whimpered.
| quickly patted her back to sleep and said to Harmony, “You scaredto death!” Harmony seemed to realize her impulsiveness. “I knocked on your door, and they said you weren't home, so | waited for you!” | gave her a sideways glance. “He’s your boyfriend. Why are you asking me? How would | know?” “Chloe, you know your relationship with Atlas, don’t you?” She ccloser, her gaze dark and penetrating.
| scoffed. “Was there a relationship between him and me? Ask whoever told you that, and stop picking fights with me. You know his sister, so ask her. She has more information than | do!” With that, | pushed the door open and walked in. Harmony tried to hold the door, but | slipped inside just in time.
“You really have no news about him?” “I don’t! If | had any news, I'd tell you right away! After all, we’re neighbors.” | walked away without turning back, Ava feeling almost too heavy forto carry.

“If this was just a plain accident, as you say, why would the police investigate? And why didn’t they ask a single question regarding Atlas? Isn't that strange?” “It seems the police must have another lead, suspecting foul play in Kennedy's death,” Grayson suggested. “I'm currently looking into the police channels.” “Find out if there’s any connection between Keegan and Stella.” | looked at Grayson. “l want to know what Stella gave Keegan!” Suddenly, Grayson’s phone rang. He glanced at the screen, frowned slightly, and then answered. He listened intently, occasionally humming. After a while, Grayson hung up and looked at me.
