They will face the consequences," she declared, her commitment to maintaining the delicate balance between the families apparent. nOVE-lb-In
Reaves, caught in the midst of conflicting emotions, took a moment to reassess the situation. Mary's logical approach seemed to strike a chord with him, prompting a reevaluation of her involvement in the attempted assassination.
"You may have a point, Mary. It doesn't seem like your style to execute such a reckless plan," Reaves conceded, his expression softening slightly. The weight of suspicion lifted, at least momentarily, from Mary's shoulders.
Still grappling with the lingering uncertainty of who might be behind the attempt on Nexus's life, Reaves furrowed his brow in frustration. "If it wasn't the Kay family, then who stands to gain from Nexus's demise? What benefit could anyone derive from such chaos?" he questioned, searching for answers in the fog of uncertainty.
Mary, maintaining her composed demeanor, decided to press the advantage. "Reaves, I've always considered the Russells as potential opponent and their existence has been a boost to the Kay family in the prosperity in Castra City. A chaotic event like this doesn't align with our interests either. It's in our mutual benefit to find out who's truly behind this."
Reaves nodded in agreement, recognizing the shared interest in uncovering the truth. "True, Mary. you both stand to lose if Nexus falls victim to these sinister plots. But, mark my words, if anyone from your family is involved, there will be consequences."
Mary, maintaining her composed demeanor, suggested a pragmatic course of action. "Reaves, leave the investigation to the police department. They're better equipped to handle these matters. It's their expertise, after all," she advised, emphasizing the importance of relying on the proper authorities to unravel the mystery.
Mary met Reaves's gaze with a determined look. "Reaves, I swear on the honor of the Kay family, we will cooperate fully in this investigation."
When Mary recommended entrusting the investigation to the police department, Reaves found himself grappling with a realization. Internally, he acknowledged that Mary's suggestion indicated a lack of involvement on her part. After all, someone orchestrating such a plot would likely want to maintain control over the situation, steering clear of external interference.
However, the uncertainty surrounding the assailant's identity persisted, leaving Reaves perplexed. The motive behind the attempt on Nexus's life remained elusive, a puzzle with missing pieces that he couldn't quite fit together. The fog of confusion veiled the true orchestrator of this intricate and dangerous scheme.
Reluctantly, Reaves nodded in agreement with Mary's suggestion. "You're right. Let the police handle this. We need to find out who's behind this and what their motives are," he conceded, acknowledging the necessity of relying on the expertise of law enforcement to navigate the labyrinth of deceit and intrigue.
In the room where the attempt on Nexus's life had unfolded, an air of tension lingered. The abrupt exit of Reaves and Mary Kay left those present in a state of bewilderment. While some grasped the gravity of the situation, others were left to speculate about the reasons behind Reaves' swift action.
Tiffany, Reaves' concerned daughter, felt an immediate urge to follow her father. "What is father doing, why is he dragging that vile lady away".
However, Nexus, displaying a surprising depth of understanding, intervened. He grabbed her hand and gently shook his head, signaling for Tiffany to exercise patience and wait for her father's return. The subtle gesture conveyed a sense of assurance, suggesting that Reaves had matters to discuss with Mary Kay that warranted privacy.
As Tiffany sat on the floor next to Nexus, her frustration simmered just beneath the surface, her eyes darted toward the door, anxiously anticipating her father's return and the resolution of the unfolding drama. The atmosphere in the room seemed charged with unspoken questions and concerns. The hushed whispers of the gathered nobles contributed to the palpable tension, creating a backdrop of uncertainty.
Nexus, sensing Tiffany's frustration, attempted to lighten the mood. "These kinds of events always have unexpected twists," he remarked, offering a faint smile. "Your father is just handling things swiftly. We'll know more soon."
Tiffany, though appreciative of Nexus's attempt to reassure her, couldn't shake off her unease. "I just don't understand why he took that woman away," she confided, her gaze fixated on the closed door through which Reaves and Mary Kay had exited.
Nexus, choosing his words carefully, responded, "Sometimes, in the pursuit of answers, people need to have private discussions. Your father likely has his reasons, and we should trust that he'll handle the situation wisely."
Meanwhile, the other guests in the room exchanged curious glances and speculative murmurs. The attempted assassination had cast a shadow over the joyous occasion, prompting a shift in the celebratory atmosphere.
Nora, observing the unfolding drama from a distance, couldn't contain her curiosity. She approached Nexus and Tiffany, her eyes revealing a mix of concern and intrigue. "What happened? Why did Reaves take Mary Kay away like that?" she inquired, her tone laced with a blend of curiosity and genuine worry.
Before Nexus could respond, the room's grandeur was interrupted by the entrance of Madeline. She approached the duo with an air of authority, her expression betraying a mixture of concern for Nexus and a determination to maintain order.
"Tiffany, Nexus," Madeline began, her voice steady, "I assure you that Reaves is handling the situation appropriately. There are complexities at play, and we should let him address them. Nexus, you should focus on healing yourself, you don't have to concern yourself with anything else." Nexus nodded and sit in meditating state.

After the catastrophic night, it left many people under surveillance and some on restless peaks to look for the answer. Inside the dirty old walls of the office, Martin was sitting at his study table. With his hands on his face, he took several deep breaths before washing with face from cold water.
Mastin was Tom's boss and an undercover agent working for the government in vigilance. He had succeeded in solving many cases earlier, but his current one had him crooked in his tracks. Not only was he facing difficulty in sorting the case out, many other factors were blocking his path to success. There were many issues going on which needed to be handled. Martin, an elite, got severe pressure from higher authorities of the central government, which left him restless to solve the cases as quickly as possible. It was found that numerous killers, including serial ones, were roaming freely in the black market. Martin's job was to track him down, and it needed to be done as soon as possible to avoid murders in the future.
Martin was on the edge due to the pressure and working late at night to solve the case got a toll on him. Apart from the current cases ongoing, he had to lurk for the spies working from enemies. Some of them were in government and his skills to work as a vigilante in such cases were professional. His interest in the crime investigation was far beyond imagination. That's why he always gave his hundred and one percent in solving the most troublesome cases around the country.
This fresh case was giving him a hard time.
