Private Detective Wang [ZhanYi FF] with MPREG special / Complete

Chapter 48 - Farewell and new beginning

A/N: This is the last chapter before the MPREG special. The book ends here for all who do not want to read MPREG. For everyone else, it continues in the next chapter.

Although my stepdad wanted to come over the next day and introduce himself properly, he didn't show up. I thought, hey I suspected that anyway and that I didn't expect anything else. But then I found out that he had been in a car accident. The cab he was in when he was on his way here went out of control.

After it had rained on and off for the past few days, the roads were wet when it began to freeze in the early morning, turning the road into an ice rink. The cab driver tried to avoid a pickup truck that was coming towards them. The cab driver lost control of his car and it collided with the pickup truck. The cab driver, my stepfather and the driver of the pickup truck all died. They died instantly and no one could have done anything for them.

The police suddenly appeared at our apartment door and informed us of my stepfather's death. They came to us first because the cab was on its way here and my stepfather had our address on a piece of paper in his jacket pocket. The note had our address on it and underneath it said "my youngest stepson."

It was the first time I had received such a message, and of course I was appropriately shocked. Even though I did not know my stepfather, it was affecting me deeply. I then gave the police officers my mother's cell phone number. They called her and told her the sad news. She completely freaked out, she was screaming and crying and then suddenly there was silence on the phone.

Minutes passed but nothing was heard until my little brother called out loudly, "Mommy, Mommy wake up." One of the police officers reported this to dispatch and they notified 911 at my mother's home in the United States. Within 10 minutes, paramedics were at her house. However, they could only pronounce her dead. Apparently, due to the shock of her husband's death, she suffered a bad heart attack.

I was so shocked that I couldn't get a word out. Zhan called my brother and told him what happened. He had just taken our dad and stepmom to the airport with Cheng. He called his manager, who gave him time off. He and Cheng then immediately flew to the U.S. while Zhan and I took care of things with my stepdad here.

It all happened so quickly and so unexpectedly that we didn't have time to think at all. We just acted. Luckily, Zhan was by my side and took over most of it. I don't know what I would have done without him. After all, there were so many things to think about.

My brother contacted us as soon as he and Cheng landed in the US. They went to the coroner's office and, after consulting with us, signed off on not doing an autopsy on my mother. After all, we don't know if they might not have found something that is not normal for humans. After all, there is this elf thing!

After they went to the coroner's office and filled out several paperwork so that our mother's body could be transferred to Beijing and we could bury her here with her husband, they went to my mother's neighbor's house and picked up our little brother from there. He didn't understand all this and wanted to know when Mom was coming home.

Cheng then calmly explained to him that Mom was now with the angels. The three of them then cried for a whole hour. The next day they started to take care of everything on the spot. Or rather, they wanted to. But my stepfather had made provisions for everything. A will had everything in it. He also had death insurance policies for himself and our mother that covered all the funeral expenses.

There was only one thing left to settle. Namely, what should happen to our little brother. Actually, in the case of the death of the two, the sister of my stepfather should get custody of the little one. However, she had already died a year earlier and there were no other relatives. Therefore, my brother and Cheng applied for custody of our little brother. It was granted to them in a fast-track procedure, temporarily.
