Chapter 577
Lydia quickly seized Grace’s hand, urging her to turn away and shield her eyes from the grim scene.
Hannah instructed Lydia without missing a beat, “Get Grace out of here and keep her safe!”
“Will do.
You and Bryson watch yourselves!”
The resort staff, who had been in charge of the fireworks, also dropped everything and raced toward the commotion.
The hotel manager arrived, panting and visibly shaken.
Upon seeing the body, he went pale.
“What the hell is happening?”
Hannah responded, unflinchingly, “Contact the authorities.
No one leaves or enters until they arrive.
And keep everyone away from the body until then.
”
Regaining his composure, the manager nodded and quickly ordered someone to call the police.
Law enforcement arrived promptly, bringing along forensic experts.
The body was recovered from the water and examined right there on the beach.
Hannah and Bryson were momentarily set aside for questioning by the police.
After they had recounted their version of events and found their statements aligned with the hotel staff, they were allowed to return to the hotel.

“We’re only back temporarily.
They’ll continue questioning everyone here, likely until the morning.

Hannah looked at Bryson and said, “It appears I wasn’t mistaken last night.
There were both a living person and a corpse in the water.
”
Bryson’s brow knitted together.
“If someone went into the ocean for a rescue, they wouldn’t have just abandoned the body there.
”
A surge of dread washed over Hannah.
This could not be happening.
Their beach resort had just opened its doors.
A murder case could ruin everything.
Reading her apprehension, Bryson softly gripped her hand and reassured her.
“It’s alright.
Reach out to the White Group’s public relations team and have them prepare for what’s coming.
”
Grasping his intent, Hannah nodded.
“If this does turn out to be a murder, I won’t conceal the truth.
My conscience won’t allow it.
