Victor ignored Ryan’s frantic banging against the iron door, walking directly toward the patio pillar near the American flag where Tiffany was standing. He reached behind a decorative loose stone in the brick foundation, pulling out a small leather-bound notebook that Clara had spotted earlier.
The notebook belonged to Hannah, filled with frantic handwriting detailing how Ryan and Tiffany had systematically poisoned her to steal her trust fund. Victor turned the yellowed pages, his eyes scanning the horrifying entries that documented every detail of her imprisonment.
