Sotiria smirked. “You have a guilty conscience. Of course you wouldn’t be able to understand what I’m saying. You’re the kind of person who would never cry unless death is staring you in the face. You’d never admit to it if I asked you straight off like this. I’m not going to waste my time with you. I’ve called the police. I’d love to see if you’ll still be as tight-lipped once you’ve been taken to the police station for interrogation!”Virginia’s face was as white as a sheet of paper.If Sotiria died, everyone would think that it was just an accident. No one would suspect her.However, by some miracle, Sotiria had actually survived.Regardless of how flawless her plan was, Sotiria would definitely be able to uncover incriminating evidence on her, even if the police were not involved, as long as she refused to let her go.That was a murder attempt!She and Elizabeth would be doomed if they found anything against them!Elizabeth, who was sitting next to Virginia, was so frightene
Marco’s clear eyes were a mixture of sorrow and sympathy when he saw Sotiria.“It doesn’t matter what others think of her. She’ll always be my childish little sister. No one can ever replace her in my heart.”“Sigh! Marco, You… Sigh!”Harvey could only sigh.Sotiria stared fixedly at Marco. Her eyes filled with tears.‘Don’t worry, Marc. From now on, I’ll be a good woman. I won’t ever let you down again,’ she thought silently to herself.Unbeknownst to everyone else, Elizabeth, who was trembling from fright, was now glaring sharply at Sotiria. The viciousness in her eyes was as deep as an abyss.Just then, a police siren echoed from outside the main gate.Virginia, who was on tenterhooks, was so frightened that her face turned ashen when she heard that sound.Two police cars were parked outside the main gate.Six policemen in uniform got out of the cars. They strode proudly into the courtyard. The leading policeman sternly asked, “Which of you is Sotiria Green?”“I am.” Soti
“You described that Virginia secretly used Marco’s cell phone to call you when you called the police. Is that person Marco?” The policeman pointed at Marco.Sotiria nodded. “He’s my brother.”“Yeah.” The policeman also nodded. “In order for us to get to the bottom of this issue as soon as possible, we need the two of you to cooperate with us in our investigation. As such, the two of you will also need to come with us, please!”Sotiria waved to Marco. “Marc, let’s go.”Marco took a glimpse at Harvey, stepped forward, and walked to Sotiria’s side. The two of them then walked side by side toward the gate with the police.“Sotiria Green, wait a minute, I have something to tell you!” Accompanied by this low roar, Harvey dashed toward Sotiria and stood in front of her, blocking her way with his stout body.He gnashed his teeth and glared at Sotiria. “I warn you, I don’t care about the grudges between you and Vi, but you better be careful with your choice of words when you’re reporting
Before Harvey could finish his sentence, Sotiria’s palm had already landed harshly on his greasy and plump cheek.The pain on his face was scorching and tingling. However, Harvey could not bother to yell out in pain due to the intense shock and humiliation. He glared at Sotiria in disbelief. “You wh*re! How dare you slap me? I’m your father!”“No! You are not my father!”Sotiria had mustered every single ounce of energy in her tiny body when she flung that slap toward Harvey. Her palm hurt like knives were slashing it, but the only emotion that could be seen in her eyes was indifference.“You’ve told me more than once that you don’t have a daughter. And now, I shall tell you that I don’t have a father either. From now on, I’ll no longer regard you as my kin and be merciful to you ever again. If you curse me again, I’ll make sure that you get the same treatment as I do. If you do anything to me, I’ll make sure you taste your own medicine, but twice as worse!”“You b*stard! You b*tc
At the Crescent Lake—the lake where Sotiria was almost drowned...Sotiria’s car had already been salvaged ashore. And Sotiria, who came to the scene with the police, stood in front of the car and thought about the scene that had taken place here not long ago, where she had been trapped in the car, struggling and waiting to die. She felt a strong hatred bubbling in her heart like magma.Marco, who was standing on her left, looked at the shimmering lake with thousands of thoughts running through his mind. “The police retrieved the call records. Earlier today, at around 12:30 in the afternoon, there was indeed a conversation between my cell phone number and your cell phone number. The conversation went on for more than two minutes.”Sotiria nodded. “So, Marc, do you believe that Virginia wants to kill me now?”Marco remained silent for a split second and glanced at Virginia, who was being locked and interrogated by the police in a police car.“That conversation sounded very strange i
“Mother, I’ve come to pick you up. Get in the car.”Virginia rolled her eyes at Sotiria, turned around, and walked toward the car.“Wait!” Sotiria took two quick steps forward and stood in front of Virginia. “I’ve heard that my mother drowned in this lake eight years ago. And I was almost killed by you today. This happened right here in this lake too. What a coincidence huh, don’t you think so too?”Virginia glared at her. “Yes, what a coincidence, but so many coincidences are taking place in this world. So what do you want to say, you b*tch?!”Sotiria’s eyebrows creased due to the wrath. “You know what I’m talking about. My mother was killed by you too!”Virginia was wordless as she was slightly startled by the sudden shock. Nevertheless, she said with a flustered and exasperated smile in the next second, “You promiscuous little wh*re! Have you gotten all confused due to all the sex that you’ve been having throughout all these years, or have you taken so many drugs that they’ve s
The phone in Sotiria’s pocket rang at that moment.It turned out that tomorrow was the day she would get married to Garrison. He had specially made an appointment for some makeup artists to come over to her house to do her bridal makeup. However, no one was there to open the door when the makeup artist knocked on the door of her house, so Garrison called her on her phone.Knowing that Sotiria was by the lake, Garrison wanted to pick her up.But Sotiria did not want to trouble Garrison with everything, so she insisted on going back by herself.Garrison had the key to Sotiria’s house, so the door was opened, and Garrison was already sitting on the sofa, waiting for her when she returned home.Three makeup artists were sitting on another sofa, while Jordan, Garrison’s assistant, and driver were standing at the side. Garrison’s expression looked extremely solemn, and none of them dared to even make a slight noise.Upon seeing Sotiria entering the door, Garrison’s handsome face finall
Only then did Garrison release Sotiria’s hand. He reluctantly pinched Sotiria’s cheek. His eyes were filled with the warmth of spring. “I’ve suddenly realized what a loser I am. I know that we’re less than sixteen hours away, but I can’t wait. My heart is raging. I wish I had a time machine so that I could travel to tomorrow straight away, to the moment I walk down the aisle with you and put that ring on your finger. Once that happens, I’ll tell the world that I love you!”Sotiria blinked at him.“Miss Rennard mentioned that there’s still a lot of work for you to complete. You need to get all of that done, or our wedding can’t go on properly. Then, your wishes will turn to dust!”Garrison planted a kiss on her forehead.“See you tomorrow, dear wife.”“Mm.”Sotiria smiled sweetly.However, her eyes were as calm as water.That’s right! She was certain that Garrison was truly in love with her. She would not regret marrying him. However, why couldn’t she feel any sense of passion
