Shane tried his father's date of birth, but that wasn't the right combination either.
When it was time to try his birthday, he stopped as he couldn't afford to make any mistake. Otherwise, he might risk
losing the will once and for all.
He started emanating an intimidating presence while having his eyes glued to the safe.
It feels awful when the will is right in front of me, but there's nothing I can do to get my hands on it!
Silas was equally frustrated.
What's wrong with Mr. Thompson? The fact the will has been buried around the burial grounds of Mr. Shane's
parents isn't the worst but the lock that requires the right combination of passwords without any clue!
All of a sudden, silence fell in the study.
A short while later, Shane had a moment of revelation. He clenched his fists with all his might and started
attempting the combination of passwords for one last time.
“Mr. Shane, have you figured out the right combination?”
Shane answered with his eyes narrowed, “I'll give it a try! If worse comes to worst, we'll acquire the aid of those

Once he made himself clear, he tried another password for the last time.
The moment he was done, he stared at it before submitting his final attempt.
To his surprise, the indicator notified Shane he had keyed in the right combination of passwords.
Unable to contain his excitement, Silas yelled, “Mr. Shane, you did it! You have successfully unlocked the safe!”
Shane replied with a grin, “I'm aware of that.”
“Mr. Shane, what was the combination of passwords that you have entered?”
“It's my grandmother's birthday.”
“Mrs. Thompson? I thought it was the day your parents passed on!”
“He told me he had gotten used to having my late grandmother's birthday as his combination of passwords.
Therefore, I thought it was worth a try.”
“That's brilliant!”
Shane immediately opened the safe and found a stack of documents and a USB drive inside it.
He handed over the USB drive to Silas and started reading the stack of documents.
Those turned out to be the evidence he needed to prove Sam guilty of causing his parents' death.
The information of the driver and the car that was involved in the accident had been included. In fact, there was
also the assessment report of the blood sample found at the scene as well as the transaction record.
All of a sudden, Silas turned around and announced, “Mr. Shane, I found the recording of the conversation between
the driver and Sam in the USB drive. On top of the documents you have, there's also the surveillance footage of the
accident back in the day. We're able to prove Sam guilty with all these.”
Shane went dead silent and started playing the recordings Silas found from the USB drive.
The conversation occurred after the accident. The driver had reverted to Sam and assured him he had
accomplished the assigned tasks.
Sam burst out laughing when he found out Seth and his wife had passed on a few minutes after the accident
occurred.
Shane felt a chill running down his spine when he heard his uncle's vicious laugh.
Sighing, Silas remarked, “I thought he would at least show signs of remorse after killing his siblings. It turns out that
I'm wrong—he's just a heartless man.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSmirking, Shane asserted, “It's fine! I can't wait to let him have a taste of his own medicine! His death is a cause for
celebration as well!”
“It's time for him to bear the consequences of his actions.”
Shortly after their conversation, Shane started playing the surveillance footage.
It was more or less the same as the one he had acquired some time ago. However, he could clearly see the
registered vehicle plate of the red car that was involved in the accident.
The driver never brought the car to a halt even after the accident. A few seconds later, the car crashed down the
streets and vanished.
Shortly after the red car's departure, another car with a similar color showed up. Yulia and Natalie were the ones
inside the said car. It had a different registered vehicle plate as compared to the one before.
Natalie had been telling the truth—as soon as Yulia figured out Seth was heavily injured, Yulia brought the car to a
halt and rushed over with Natalie.
In other words, Yulia wasn't the one at fault.
“That's—” Shane paused the surveillance footage.
When he zoomed in on the image, he saw a little girl in a yellow dress. She had been recording the incident with her
handphone.
