The construction site disaster at Marblearch, claiming victims from a rival Merida Metro development firm, sparked widespread speculation that Garrett had engineered the whole thing—using violence to crush his competition.
The controversy exploded online.
Most assumed Garrett was frantically trying to manage the crisis.
But right now, Garrett couldn't care less about such petty concerns.
Ever since discovering that Amara was the Dalton family's lone survivor—and clearly no ordinary girl—he'd been consumed with dread.
Sleepless nights had turned his eyes crimson.
If this had gone down fifteen years ago, Garrett wouldn't have panicked like this.
A killer on the loose lived with death as his constant companion.
If you were willing to take lives, you had to be ready to lose your own. It all came down to who was faster, more skilled.
But those days were behind him now. He'd built a quiet, respectable life.
To ease his conscience, he made charitable donations annually.
