Susan spoke with a particularly cold and unrestrained laugh, as if she were waiting to see a joke at Judy's expense. Her gaze was especially indifferent, not at all like a sister of many years, but more like a long-time enemy. She had already reached this point, with no other way out, and so she no longer cared about anything, saying whatever came to mind. She was locked up, but Amelia was still outside. Amelia was ruthless and would make Judy suffer. Judy felt that the Susan before her was utterly unfamiliar. She chuckled softly, "So, you've always thought this way. I guess there's no point in me saying anything more. You won't reveal who's behind you." "It was all me, no one else was involved. I was just jealous and couldn't stand your superior attitude," Susan claimed. As Susan became agitated, Judy deliberately said, "The abortion pills Amelia gave you should be finished by now, right?" Susan responded without thinking, "They're finished..." But she realized her mistake too
Susan was very hungry, but as she reached for the bowl, she suddenly想到了 something and quickly pulled her hand back in fear, "I'm not hungry, I won't eat."Seeing that Susan didn't fall for it, the prison guard became enraged and slammed the bowl to the ground, "You must eat."As he spoke, the guard pulled out a knife from his pocket.The shiny blade glinted in the light from the window, reflecting a glow that shone on Susan's face.A flash of terror crossed Susan's face, and she tried to爬起来 to run, but where could she go in the detention center?Susan shouted loudly, "Help, is anyone there? Help me, someone is trying to kill me."No matter how hard Susan shouted, nobody came.The guard sneered, "Don't waste your breath. You can scream as loud as you want, it won't do any good. I originally wanted you to die more gracefully and not suffer so much, but you just don't know what's good for you."The guard slowly approached Susan, who clung to the iron bars with both hands, terrified, "Is
Susan confessed, but then worried about Amelia retaliating against her, saying, "You have to guarantee my safety, you can't let Amelia harm me."Steven reassured her, "Don't worry, it's very safe here. Just wait for the trial."Susan was still frightened: "This place isn't safe, that prison guard just now wanted to kill me."Steven just laughed, didn't say anything, picked up the record book, and left.The prison guard who had been knocked unconscious earlier came over: "Sir, you hit too hard just now. I feel a bit concussed, I'm going to apply for leave to get checked tomorrow."Steven pretended to pat the guard's head: "Let me check for you."The guard jokingly dodged: "No need, I was just kidding. Did Susan confess?""Confessed," Steven said, "That performance just now was good."The guard smiled: "Thanks for the compliment.""I'm going to reply to Judy, you can clock off now."In fact, it was all an act, designed to make Susan tell the truth by making her believe Amelia wanted to
Judy didn't even have the courage to go to the police station to confirm the body.It seemed as if, as long as she didn't confirm it, Susan was still alive in this world.How had she and Susan come to this point today?Judy's complexion was not good, her lips completely colorless. Due to the drastic emotional changes, her unborn baby was also affected, causing a dull ache in her lower abdomen."Judy, take a seat first and don't think about it," Lewis helped Judy sit down and hugged her. If it weren't for Judy, he wouldn't have cared about Susan's death at all. But Susan's death affected Judy and made him worried.Leaning against his warm embrace, Judy couldn't stop her whole body from shaking, a tear silently falling from the corner of her eye.It was uncertain how much time had passed before Judy's emotions finally settled a bit.Susan had no other family in this world; if Judy didn't go confirm, who could?Later, Lewis accompanied Judy to the police station and saw Susan in the morg
Susan's death was a huge blow to Judy.Upon returning to the Royal Estate, that afternoon, Judy fell ill with a low fever that wouldn't subside and aching all over.Lewis stayed by her side, temporarily leaving work matters to his subordinates.He held her in his arms, providing silent company and comfort.Judy slept restlessly, constantly dreaming of her childhood.When she saw Susan's body, she realized that no matter how great the grudges in the world, they meant nothing in the face of death.The things people cling to and can't let go of, once they touch death, become utterly meaningless.Only by living does one have everything to begin with.If asked if Judy hated Susan, it didn't seem to be hatred anymore.After John saw the body at the police station, he immediately came to the Royal Estate.Lewis went downstairs and signaled John not to disturb Judy.Lewis said, "She's not feeling well and needs rest. If you have anything to say, you can tell me."John, with a heavy heart, sai
Lewis spoke in a cold and menacing tone, exuding a strong aura of violence.Amelia fully believed that Lewis would actually chop off all her fingers and feed them to the golden python.Amelia shrank back in horror, forgetting the pain and her tears.At the spot where her finger had been cut off, blood gushed out, and the pain grew stronger and stronger."Boss," Louis couldn't help but call out.Lewis ignored Louis and sat down on the coffee table, looking carefree. The python seemed to be full, but it still opened its mouth wide to intimidate Amelia before settling down beside her, staring menacingly at her.Without Lewis's command, the golden python would not harm Amelia.But just this posture was enough to scare Amelia out of her mind.Lewis glanced at his wristwatch and coldly said, "You have three seconds. Whether the next finger can be saved depends entirely on your thoughts.""I...I didn't..." Amelia covered the cut on her finger, still stubbornly resisting.Lewis pulled out a f
Whether Amelia is Perona's daughter or not is of no importance to Lewis.Lewis casually patted Amelia's cheek with a fruit knife and said, "Tell me everything about the time you colluded with Susan, and don't leave out a single detail, including Ellie's death."The fear of the knife tapping on her face made Amelia's heart tremble. In order to keep her remaining fingers, she confessed one by one: "On the day the pizza place opened, I met Susan. She told me how she hated Judy, and I also resented Judy because she took you away from me..."Amelia continued to sob, "I just wanted to teach Judy a lesson, but I didn't expect Susan to say she wanted to kill the baby in Judy's stomach, and this wasn't her first time doing something like this..."Amelia shifted most of the blame onto Susan, especially since Susan is dead and cannot be proven wrong.Moreover, she only provided the drugs, and the rest was not her doing.She did not completely reveal her grievance against Judy.She is not stupid;
Grandma knows Lewis .With Lewis's temperament, Amelia would either die or be crippled.Lewis held the phone, pondering for a while without agreeing or responding.Knowing Lewis's determination, Grandma said, "Lewis, let Amelia go. Punishing her is enough. In half an hour, I want to see you at the hospital."Lewis looked back into the room and saw the golden python playing with Amelia. This is the nature of snakes; after capturing their prey, they don't eat it right away but play with it first.Amelia had already fainted from fear. In contrast to the huge body of the python, she looked very small.Louis took the opportunity to say, "Boss, why don't we just let it go? Today's lesson will be enough for Amelia to remember for a lifetime."The call was still connected, and Lewis said, "Grandma, tell Perona to come and pick Amelia up at the North Gate villa herself."Grandma let out a sigh of relief, hung up the phone, and told the anxious Perona who had hurried over, "Go pick her up.""Th
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
