Sean leaned against the table, his hands clasped around its edge. His face was dark, with wrinkles on his brow. A dead body was lying in his study, and he had no idea how to deal with it. Regardless of how astute and cunning he was, his mind was completely blank.
He couldn't do anything in haste. He had to proceed with proper planning so that he could avoid both Declan and the cops. After much deliberation, he came up with something.
He phoned his assistant, glancing at the dead man.
"Where are you?" he asked when the call logged in.
"I just got home, sir. Do you need anything?"
"Come over. I have something urgent to deal with." With that, he ended the call.

Amber arrived home and dashed to her bedroom. Her brain nearly exploded with rage when she saw Earl sleeping. The loud noise of his snoring exacerbated her anger.
