"I don't know," she replied, her voice trembling. "David was the only person who ever loved me, and now he's gone. I feel so lost."Alexa put her hand on Jade's shoulder, trying to offer some comfort.

"I'm just grateful to be alive, thanks to you."Alexa gave her a small smile. "I'm just glad I could help."Jade looked away for a moment, deep in thought.

I didn't hear Nolan invite you over."Kathy turns around and smiles at Alexa. "Oh, hey, Alexa! The board of directors ordered my family to help the nanny in convincing Nolan to come back.

I understand how hard this must be for him."Kathy's expression softened. "I just wish there was more I could do to help him. But I trust that you'll take good care of him. He's the hope of BCI, after all."Alexa nodded, grateful for Kathy's kind words. "I'll do my best."As the group left, Alexa felt a mix of relief and sadness.

"You don't have to do this, Alexa," he said, his voice barely above a whisper.Alexa looked into Nolan's eyes and told him sincerely, "I know I don't have to do this, Nolan. But I want to. Anthony was like a brother to me, and I can't just sit back and watch as his killers get away with it. I will do whatever it takes to put them down."
