Requiem of a Broken Heart

Chapter 694:

“Rachel! I’m sorry. I’m so sorry!”

Overcome with grief, Brian clutched the papers and finally let his tears flow freely.

His tears were bitter, steeped in regret and sorrow.

Yet, no amount of crying could change the past.noveldrama

After the kidnapping incident, the police captured Neal and Tracy and brought them to the station.

Presenting solid evidence and with Eric acting as Brian’s lawyer, both faced lengthy sentences, potentially extending beyond a decade.

Amidst the chaos, Tracy caused a spectacle at the station, vehemently demanding an audience with Brian.

Her uproar forced the officers to reach out to Eric, who made a direct call to Brian.

“Tracy is making a scene, demanding to see you. Are you going to meet with her?”

Eric posed the question with no sugarcoating, to which Brian responded just as starkly, “No.”

“And if she threatens to take her own life?” Eric asked, foreseeing her potential desperation.

“Still no.”

“Understood,” Eric acknowledged.

“Hold on!” Brian interjected, a sudden thought striking him. “Isn’t Tracy expecting? Would her pregnancy prevent her from being sentenced?”

Sighing heavily, Eric massaged his forehead. “Her pregnancy might allow her temporary relief from imprisonment. She could serve her time at home while pregnant and nursing. After that, I’ll arrange for her return to prison.”

“That works for me,” Brian said, his tone laced with fatigue.

His replies remained brief and resolute.

Eric had been worried about Brian after learning of Rachel’s tragic demise.

“Brian, I’m truly sorry for your loss,” Eric said, choosing his words carefully to offer solace.

Brian remained silent and ended the call abruptly.

Meanwhile, Tracy, denied a meeting with Brian, lost her composure at the police station.

During a meal, she dramatically threatened an officer with a fork to her throat, demanding her release.

Tracy’s arrogance and overconfidence were evident; not everyone was intimidated by her tactics.

Officers quickly intervened when they heard of the incident, attempting to soothe her while cautiously removing the fork.

Tracy’s emotional state deteriorated rapidly.

Her plea rejected, she surged ahead, exclaiming, “Move aside! I must speak with Brian White, or else I’ll perish right here before your eyes!”

It could have been her overwhelming emotions, or perhaps her desperate haste. Unmindful of her surroundings, she failed to notice the threshold, stumbled with her right foot, and crashed to the floor.
