Chapter 80

 

It was a cool morning in New York City. The sun was slowly escaping from the shades of the sky, brightening the whole city.

 

Daniel was sitting on the brown couch that was in his sitting room, his gaze fixed on the computer that was right in front of him. He was on a video call with his Chinese supplier, and they were both bargaining the price of the new goods Daniel was to order.

 

After another twenty minutes of discussion, they finally came to an agreement, and afterwards Daniel switched off the computer, took his computer, and started surfing the Internet.

 

As he was scrolling through the updates, he came across a post that almost blew him away from the couch. The post was concerning the death of Cynthia Bernard, the wife of the late billionaire Mr. Bernard, who was imprisoned because of the murder that she committed.

 

She was stabbed by her inmates in the jail and confirmed dead yesterday afternoon.
