Chapter 249 Total Destruction In truth, the passing of Simon bore a visage of lamentable sorrow.

Kate's fleeting glance was abruptly halted as a commanding hand covering her eyes, Eric's frigid voice accompanying the gesture: "That suffices." The constable, having glimpsed Simon's plight, abstained from further inspection. At Eric's behest, he swiftly withdrew the white shroud.

Kate stood unmoving, yielding to Eric as he screened her vision and guided her from the mortuary.

Elation, for the rogue Simon had met his end. Remorse, for his demise seemed too swift, too forgiving! In comparison to the tragic fate of her former self, her kin, and Eric, Simon's passing... was almost gentle, almost fleeting.

"Kate, are you well?" Only upon their departure from the mortuary did Eric release his grip on Kate's eyes, his countenance marked with concern.

"Kate, my dear, let him be." Eric soothed her with a gentle hand upon her back, his voice soft and calm.

"Mm." Kate nodded firmly, her gaze brightening as she looked at Eric, "Ric, let us return home."

Eric pursed his lips, watching her with a twinge of pleasure in his heart, then e inquired And Simon's remains?"

Kate replied earnestly, "Burn what must be burned, bury what must be buried. Such filth sickens me. He wasted breath in life and land in death... Listening to Kate's resolute words, Eric's lingering resentment dissolved completely.

He glanced back at the mortuary, his eyes ablaze with unwavering resolve.

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust.

For a wretch like Simon, it is just
