The person flinched.

“Well…”

Zoe was short on patience, She grabbed the man’s collar and furiously roared, “Spit it out quickly! Otherwise, I will beat you up!”

“Okay, I’ll tell you!” His face turned white with fear.

He then confessed the truth.

“Jayla’s body was cremated without undergoing an autopsy!”

Caleb’s POV: A glacial chill crept up my spine, and my hands balled into fists.

“Are you kidding me?” I retorted, shooting a steely look toward the person in charge.

“Jayla has just been killed.

The murderer hasn’t been found yet.

How can her body be cremated so soon?

In fear of my righteous fury, the individual in charge hastened to explain, “Alpha, it’s beyond my sway.

It’s James’ strong request.

He said that he hoped Jayla could be cremated as soon as possible according to the family tradition and reach her final peace.

He warned me not to do the autopsy.

Zoe’s face turned somber, and she immediately inquired, “When was the body cremated?”

The person in authority responded promptly, “Just now.

” Surprise washed over us.

Just now?

In that instant, a realization struck me.

Moments earlier, as I accompanied Zoe down the corridor, we’d encountered a staff member pushing a shrouded figure on a gurney, We hadn’t noted the person’s identity beneath the pristine white covering.

Could it have been Jayla?

Zoe and I exchanged glances, an unspoken understanding instantly bridging between us.

Abandoning the person in charge, she bolted away, and I hastened behind her.

Fortunately enough, the funeral home was nearby and we caught up to them soon.

But unfortunately, we were still too late.

When we reached the funeral home, Jayla’s lifeless form had already been pushed into the cremator.

The fire cackled around her lifeless form.

Asking the person in charge to retrieve it, we were met with a distressing sight-the corpse lay in marred ruins, devoid of any traceable clues.

“Damn it!”

Fury engulfed me, setting my eyes ablaze.

I punched the wall, the resounding thud magnetizing the attention of onlookers.

With slumped shoulders and an air of helplessness, Zoe drew me aside and said in a whisper, “Calm down, Caleb, Don’t be impulsive.

They did it in such a hurry.

Isn’t it obvious that Jayla was killed?”

Her revelation left me dumbfounded.

Undeterred, Zoe delved into her deductions.

“The mastermind orchestrating this doesn’t want any traces left behind.

It’s evident that Jayla was silenced deliberately.

According to my experience in handling cases, the murderer is likely the last prison guard to see Jayla.
