Ellie felt desperate. She hid in the men's restroom, and no one followed her in, so she was temporarily safe. However, she didn't dare to run out either. Ellie tried to make calls and send messages, but none of them worked, as there was no signal at all. She tried to raise her phone to find a signal.Suddenly, there were footsteps approaching, and many of them.The next second, the stall where Ellie was hiding was kicked open, and a security guard grabbed her from inside.A few minutes later, Ellie was thrown in front of Amelia.Amelia and the man from before sat arrogantly on the leather sofa, while Ellie was thrown on the floor like trash."Ellie," Amelia sneered, "you were following me? I always thought you ran away and weren't in Birmingham anymore. I didn't expect you to still be here."Ellie sat up and stared at Amelia with a resentful look: "With you here, how could I leave? I still have to avenge my parents, Amelia. You'll be punished. You targeted Judy. If Lewis finds out, he
Judy had too many doubts, and Ellie's death was just too sudden. After not hearing from her for months, the news about Ellie was now about her death. Judy recalled when Ellie had packed up her things and left Meike Group, reminding her to be careful of Amelia before walking away.The police visit also alerted Lewis.When Judy arrived at the police station, Lewis had already been there."Judy," Lewis entered the station and went straight to Judy, protecting her from behind, and then asked the police, "Why have you brought my wife to the police station?"Lewis was followed by Linda, Leo, and bodyguards."Sir, here's the situation: last night, a traffic accident occurred, and the deceased, Ellie, made her last call to your wife. We're just following procedure to understand the situation," the police said.Hearing that it was about Ellie, Lewis let out a sigh of relief.Lewis's arrival also caught the attention of the police chief.The chief rushed over and invited Lewis and Judy to his o
Judy and Lewis walked out of the police station, with Linda and Leo tactfully returning to the company first.Judy said, "The way they were talking just now, it was obvious that they wanted to drop the case. Isn't Ellie's death in vain? This must have something to do with Amelia.""The case, they dare not stop investigating it, but they cannot do it openly," Lewis comforted Judy. "If the case really involves Amelia, she would have a powerful family behind her. Do you think a dead person with no background, like Ellie, and a director who dare not investigate the case? You and Ellie are just colleagues."If Judy hadn't inquired today, Ellie's body would have turned into a skeleton, and no one would know she was dead.This is reality.Judy knows this too, but the thought of Ellie's death makes her feel suffocated: "I will definitely find out who killed Ellie."Lewis wanted to persuade Judy, but he didn't say anything.He would support her no matter what she wanted to do.In the past, he
Even if Ellie was dead, how could she have sent an email?"Madam, what's wrong?" Steven noticed Judy's strange expression and asked."I'm not feeling well physically," Judy did not tell Steven about the email, as she hadn't fully trusted him yet."Steven, when will Ellie's body be available to be claimed? If it's possible to claim it, please let me know. I'll take care of her funeral.""It's not available yet; another autopsy is needed," Steven said. "I will notify you when it's possible to claim her.""Thank you," Judy clenched her phone: "Then I'll return home first."After getting in the car, Judy finally opened her email.Upon reading the content, Judy was shocked.It turned out that Ellie had been following Susan and Amelia, and there were organized photos in the email, even including a photo of Amelia handing a bottle of medicine to Susan.Did Susan poison someone under Amelia's orders?Then why didn't Susan reveal Amelia?Ellie didn't have time to save and send out the photos s
Lewis: "Judy, why didn't you stay at home and rest?""Something really happened; take a look at this." Judy showed the email content to Lewis."Ellie had been following Amelia and Susan. It's understandable that she followed Amelia since she always wanted to avenge her parents. But why did Susan know Amelia? I suspect that Amelia might have been involved in the poisoning as well."Now, like a startled bird, Judy couldn't help but think more.After reading the email content, Lewis was also shocked by the information.Seeing Susan and Amelia appear in the same frame, with Amelia handing Susan a bottle.If this is related to Amelia, Lewis would never let Amelia go.Even enlarging the photo couldn't confirm what was inside the bottle, as it was labeled as vitamins, but the actual contents were unknown.Lewis asked, "Did you show the email content to the police?""No." Judy said, "I'm afraid of scaring them off. I didn't give it to the police. This matter involves not only Ellie's death,
Lewis made a phone call to Perona and invited her for dinner, planning to reveal the truth to her first.At seven in the evening, Perona arrived for their appointment.Lewis was already there.Lewis stood up: "Perona, please sit down.""What's the matter today, Lewis? Is it about the project, or...?" Perona was a bit puzzled. Lewis had invited only her this time."Just watch this, and you'll understand." Lewis showed Perona a video.It was a conversation between Lillian and Amelia, with Lillian urging Amelia to be ambitious, take over the company, and revealing that Amelia was not Perona's biological daughter.After watching the video, when she heard Lillian say that Amelia was not her own daughter, Perona felt as if the sky was falling.In the video, the reason Lillian brought Amelia back was that Perona had been searching for her daughter, in low spirits, and the family needed an heir, which led to the introduction of Amelia.Perona's hands trembled as she watched the video twice. H
Perona's words left Lillian shocked and in disbelief, with a face full of astonishment.How could Perona know about her having a child? No one knew that. A hint of panic flashed in Lillian's eyes.Yet Perona looked calm, just staring at her, waiting for her answer.Lillian quickly regained her composure and said with an expressionless face, "Sis, I don't understand what you're talking about. Where did I get a child from? Are you confused and mistaken?"Lillian denied it."I'm mistaken?" Perona chuckled and then spoke to her late husband's portrait, "Mistaken."That night,Lillian tossed and turned, sensing that Perona seemed to know something, or else why would she suddenly bring up the child she had given birth to.Lillian couldn't figure it out - how did Perona find out about the child's existence?How much did Perona really know?Why didn't she press for more information just now?Did Perona have suspicions about Amelia's background?Lillian was extremely anxious. It seemed she cou
Judy glanced at Amelia and said to Isabella, "I'll ask her properly later. We should leave now."Judy and Lewis left first. Amelia watched them go, her heart racing with anxiety.Perona also secretly observed Amelia, frowning tightly. She then said to Isabella, "I'll take Amelia back now. We still need to go to the company.""OK," Isabella said....On the way to the police station, Lewis drove while Judy spoke: "Amelia seemed quite calm just now. What does Perona mean, knowing Amelia is not her biological child but still not showing any reaction?""She's a smart person," Lewis commented. "I feel like she already knew. Yesterday, when I mentioned it, she looked surprised, but her reaction also seemed like she expected it.""That's really strange," Judy said, curious. "Now, Amelia is the only heir. If she doesn't expose it, the family fortune will fall into the hands of an outsider. She can't be that foolish."Judy's unintentional remark seemed to trigger a thought in Lewis's mind.Per
Serina subconsciously glanced at Lewis, who was standing in front of Judy's tombstone. Could it be for him?During these days, Lewis had been very quiet, and his daily routine was to perform the funeral rites for Judy and accompany her on her final journey.He no longer shed tears, but he also had no smile, as if he were just an empty shell.People lined up to offer flowers in their hands, stood in silence in front of Judy's grave for a few seconds, and then walked away, one after another. The funeral lasted until 10 o'clock in the morning.Lewis unexpectedly spoke, addressing his grandmother, "Grandma, let everyone go back. I'll stay here a little longer to keep Judy company."He hadn't spoken for a long time, and when Lewis finally did, his voice was extremely hoarse, and it had changed a bit.The grandmother's eyes were moist, and she nodded in agreement, asking Antonio to see the relatives and friends off.People gradually left, and in the end, only a few people, including Serena,
The helicopter arrived in Birmingham and landed in the backyard of Lewis's villa, where Lewis disembarked carrying the urn."Judy, we're home," he whispered softly, his tone gentle.The others also got off the helicopter, and Antonio, who had already received the news, had prepared a memorial hall at home.After a year, Judy finally returned, but in such a manner.Antonio was waiting at home, and it was only when he saw Lewis holding the urn and getting off the helicopter that he truly believed Judy had passed away, and what Isabella had said on the phone was true.Soon after,The news of Judy's death spread, shocking everyone. How could someone who was fine before suddenly pass away?In the eyes of outsiders, Judy was a person who had survived a shipwreck.Steven also received the news and quickly went to Lewis's house.A memorial hall was set up, with a coffin placed in the hall, and Judy's urn was placed inside the coffin.Lewis invited high monks to perform a funeral service for J
As Hannah said, even if it was a heart-wrenching pain, Lewis would still want to listen. He wanted to know what Judy experienced before her death.Hannah continued, "Judy was afraid of dying because she couldn't bear to leave you and Angel, but we did our best, and the doctors were helpless. She didn't want to die in the hospital; it seemed she was very averse to hospitals. After the doctor said there was no hope, she asked us to take her away, so I took her home, and she passed away in the attic room...""At that time, I promised her to fulfill her last wishes. She couldn't let go of you and Angel, so I went to your side, impersonated Judy, and took care of you and Angel in her place. But I couldn't do it, and in the end, I chose to make you dislike me, to give up on the marriage voluntarily."Hannah paused for a moment and gave a bitter smile, "Judy died when you loved her the most. You will never be able to let go of her for the rest of your life. Judy thought that if you didn't lo
Hannah was worried and wanted to find Lewis.She called the grandmother and only then learned that Lewis was hospitalized in the hospital next door.Taking advantage of the fact that neither Kim nor Guy were in the hospital, Hannah removed the IV needle from the back of her hand and was about to sneak out.However, just as she stepped out of the room, Kim returned from outside: "Sister, where are you going?""I..." Hannah stammered.Kim immediately guessed: "You want to find Lewis? I forbid you to go. You just had surgery. What are you going to do looking for Lewis? He already knows you're not Judy. If he gets angry and hurts you, what then?"Hannah said, "But I can't hide either. Lewis is ill, and everything is because of me. I should go. I owe it to Judy.""You don't owe anyone anything. Judy couldn't have been saved anyway. Even if you hadn't used Judy's heart, someone else would have," Kim said, "Anyway, I won't let you go.""Kim, why are you so heartless?" Hannah got angry, "Judy
Many children nowadays actually understand that the dead are buried beneath the graves.Angel opened her big eyes, which were clear and naive.Such a look, who wouldn't feel heartache upon seeing it?Lewis forced himself to sit up, leaning against the tombstone, his hand stroking it, not knowing how to explain to his daughter.Angel looked at Louis again, "Who is underneath this?"Louis really didn't know how to answer. He glanced at Lewis.Angel's gaze then shifted to Avery, wanting an answer from him.But no one had the heart to tell Angel such a cruel answer.Just when everyone found it hard to speak, Angel reached out her small hand to touch the tombstone and asked softly, "Is my mother buried here?"Angel's words shocked the three of them. How did Angel know?Could it be that there is truly a mother-daughter connection?Seeing that the adults were all silent, Angel suddenly burst into tears, "Mommy, it's mommy, I want my mommy."Angel cried her heart out, and Lewis held his daugh
When a person is at their most helpless and desperate, they hope for miracles, they wish for time to go back.The rain continued to fall, and the temperature at night was very low, so cold that it made people shiver.Lewis lay on the grave like a walking corpse, devoid of any vitality.Louis walked over with an umbrella and held it above his head: "Boss, don't do this. If Judy sees you like this from heaven, she will be upset."Lewis's eyes were open, but it was as if he couldn't see or hear anything. He didn't care about anything or listen to anyone. He just wanted to be closer to Judy by staying close to the grave.God couldn't hear his hysterical cries or see his heart-wrenching pain."Boss," Louis crouched down and persuaded him, "The rain is getting heavier, let's go back first."Lewis's eyes slightly shifted, finally finding a focal point: "Judy is afraid of the cold and the dark. I can't leave her alone here. I need to accompany her.""Boss, I know you're in a lot of pain, but
Isabella's face showed sadness, "Lewis definitely can't handle it. How can a person endure the loss of their loved one twice?"Isn't that like rubbing salt into a wound?"If he can get through this, then we won't have to worry in the future. But if he can't..." The grandmother didn't finish her sentence.Everyone knew the implications of what could happen....Cemetery.The dimly lit cemetery was quite eerie, and someone with a timid nature would probably be terrified to visit.The weather changed abruptly, and a light drizzle began to fall.Lewis, with Judy on his mind, stumbled towards Judy's tombstone after getting out of the car.There were only a few lamps in the cemetery, and one of them happened to be pointing in the direction of Judy's tombstone, making it easy for Lewis to find it at once."Judy, Judy!"Lewis was too eager and overwhelmed with grief. When he saw Judy's tombstone, the sorrow in his heart surged like a floodgate being opened, pouring out. He was walking too qui
The grandmother sighed, "Lewis found out about Judy's passing and couldn't bear the blow.""Lewis knows?" Serina was astonished, "And you all knew too?"Louis was surprised, "Serina, you knew about it early on?"Serina was among the first to know."Yes, Hannah told me before," Serina said, "I was worried that Lewis wouldn't be able to handle it, so I didn't dare to tell him. How did he find out?""Paper can't wrap up fire," Louis said, "Once Hannah fell and was hospitalized, it was impossible to keep it a secret.""Then when Lewis went out just now..." Serina immediately became worried, "What if something happens to him, or he gets the wrong idea?"Avery said, "He probably went to the cemetery to see Judy."The grandmother quickly said, "Louis, go to the cemetery right away and keep an eye on him. Don't let him do anything foolish.""Okay, grandma, don't worry, I'll go there now," Louis assured her.Louis and Avery went together.Serina took the grandmother back to the hotel first, wh
Lewis was emotionally out of control, looking at Hannah's face, he wished he could peel off her skin.That was the face of his wife.He wished he could dig out her heart, for it belonged to his wife.Hannah was unworthy, unworthy of possessing everything that belonged to Judy.If it weren't for this heart, how could he have been deceived and confused, mistaking Hannah for his wife? All the familiarity that Hannah gave him was because of this heart.Angel recognized Hannah as her mother, and that was also because of this heart.In Lewis's eyes, Hannah was the murderer, one of those responsible for Judy's death.Hannah did not defend herself; she knew that Lewis was in a state of rage and would not listen to anything.No one could accept such a thing.Lewis wanted to strangle Hannah, but looking at that face, he couldn't bring himself to do it; it was no different from killing Judy himself.The people outside the room couldn't see what was happening inside, but they could hear it.Reali
