Elijah and Michelle looked at each other before quickly following suit out of curiosity.
The firefighters had covered the stretcher they carried out witha piece of cloth.
Although everyone knew there was a person under it, no one knew who it was.
However, Maria recognized the corner of the clothing that peaked out under the cloth.
"Ree..." She pounced onto the stretcher.
Fabian did not hold her back as she threw herself onto the stretcher, and it fell to the ground with a bang.
She had also unintentionally pulled the cloth with her.
"Ah!" Her scream filled the air when she saw the face that belonged to the body.
Michelle, who was right behind her, saw the body and gasped in fright.

Elijah quickly reacted as he covered her eyes with his hand.
"Don't look!" Even he, a burly man, felt his heart skip a beat, and the hairs all over his body stood on end when he saw the corpse.
The face was burnt beyond recognition, almost into a lump of soil.
A glance at it would make anyone scream.
Although Michelle was in his arms with her eyes covered, she still trembled in fear.
On the other hand, Maria passed out after letting out a scream.
Fabian quickly helped her up from the stretcher and did not dare to take another glance.
Fortunately, the firefighters had covered the body again, and one said, "We found a corpse.
It's a female whose identity is still unknown." "I see." The policeman nodded.
"We'll leave that to the forensics department.” "There are stil] several corpses and stumps inside." With that, the firefighters went
into the factory again.
“Your wife said this is your daughter?" The policernan looked at Fabian and asked.
Fabian gulped, calming his nerves, before saying, ‘This dress looks like it belonged to our daughter, but...we can't recognize the
body after being burnt like that." The policeman nodded and replied, "The forensic doctor will identify the body.
Your cooperation may be needed then." "Okay, | know." Fabian nodded repeatedly.
This series of blows ctoo fast.
No matter how hard he tried, he struggled to digest it all.
"Fabian..." Elijah's arms were still around Michelle as he called out to Fabian, a little embarrassed.
“Are you happy now?!" Fabian gritted his teeth and stared at Elijah resentfully.

"Ree might be dead.
That's what you wanted to see, right? Are you satisfied?!" Elijah initially wanted to refute, but after thinking about the considerable
blow the other couple had just received, he held back and swallowed his words.
"You should wait.
That body may not belong to your daughter.
If Rhea is capable, she might've escaped in time!" He said lightly.
“What do you mean?! Don’t you want to see her dead?" Fabian snarled.
At this moment, Elijah did not want to argue.
Instead, he put his arms around Michelle and turned away.
"We'll leave you to deal with your affairs first.
We'll deal with ours later."
