Chapter 77 The Fall Out

• The living room of the Tunde mansion was unusually quiet, despite being filled with people. A soft tension hung in the air like humidity before a storm. The curtains were drawn wide, sunlight pouring into the room, but it brought no warmth.
• Zara sat on the far end of the couch, her expression unreadable. Her arms were crossed over her chest, legs tucked beneath her, as though bracing for another blow. Her father, Mr. Tunde, stood near the fireplace with a stormy face. Her mother sat beside her, wringing her hands anxiously.
• Across from them were Regan and Chief Kareem.
