Chapter 183
Brielle stepped into the living room, immediately struck by the chaos that greeted her. It
was like trying to find a square inch of peace in a rock concert. Thankfully, aside from a bit
of cash, everything else was untouched.
The audacity of the thieves was astonishing, especially with the police right around the

Cameron had been so easily ensnared.
