Chapter 6

Author: Fruity Lychee
"Ahh!" Leon screamed.

He stumbled backward and fell to the ground.

Abigail, who had been afraid of entering the morgue, rushed in as soon as she heard his voice. "Are you okay, Leon?"

She tried to help Leon to his feet, but he kept pointing in one direction frantically.

Abigail turned around and finally saw my pale face.

She gasped in shock, but her reaction wasn't as dramatic as Leon's.

"Zoe… No way…" She muttered in disbelief as she supported Leon to stand up.

"Stop lying, Zoe! Hahaha! Do you think you can fool me by showing me a random dead body that resembles you?! Come on, Zoe! Face me if you've got the guts!"

I watched as Leon staggered forward to touch my face. Then, he started shouting into the silence as if he had suddenly remembered something. "Zoe! You can't fool me with some imposter! Come out! I know you're there!"

He waved his arms around wildly, almost as though he was trying to swat something away.

'I've been by your side all along, Leon.'

    Abigail gazed at Leon with unhidden affection in her eyes. "At last, I don't have to address you as a friend anymore now."Leon looked at her with a complicated expression. "Abigail, why did it have to come to this?"She understood the meaning behind his words.She smiled bitterly and scoffed at herself."Yeah, why did it have to come to this? I thought I was only using you temporarily, but I could never forget the time when I came back broken and defeated after failing abroad. You were the only one who didn't mock me out of all our classmates, and instead, you treated me warmly.""I was scared when my crime was revealed, but my biggest fear was the thought that you might look at me differently instead of the punishment that I would face.""Leon, this isn't how things were supposed to be between us. We both made mistakes."Abigail broke down into tears regrettably as she covered her face."I'm sorry for what I did to Zoe. I know that I can never bring her back no matter how har

    Leon resolutely called the police despite Abigail's desperate pleas.Abigail tried to run when she realized things were taking a bad turn.Fortunately, Rachel noticed it. She tackled Abigail to the ground and pinned her down until the police arrived.The train ticket Abigail had bought in advance was of no use. She was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder and taken in for investigation.As the person who had reported her, Leon had to go along to the police station to give his statement.I watched as Leon carefully recounted every detail of the case. He even showed the police the messages he had sent me.I felt complicated.Perhaps Leon still loved me. After all, the love, happiness, and excitement we had shared during our time together hadn't been fake.However, the regrets of youth still lingered in his heart.His heart couldn't help but waver when the unreachable dream girl from his past re-entered his life after failing pitifully abroad.He had thought that he could m

    I watched as Leon suddenly fell silent, almost as if he had collapsed under the final emotional strain.He uncovered the remaining white sheet on my body with trembling hands. At last, my body which looked like a broken doll was revealed.My abdomen bore several scars, and my skin was covered in bruises, bloodstains, and abrasions. Besides that, my skin had lost its glow and had turned ashen.I looked like a rag doll that had been tossed aside in the garbage after enduring something violent."H-how did she get hurt?" Leon croaked.Abigail was stunned, and I noticed beads of sweat forming on her forehead despite the low temperature in the morgue. "Leon, Zoe is gone. There's no need to—""You still had no idea about it?" Rachel snorted. "Of course, you wouldn't. All your attention was on Abigail. How could you possibly notice that Zoe had been brought into the hospital that same day with Abigail?""She was critically injured and admitted into the ICU because your beloved Abigail h

    Leon grabbed Rachel's wrist and shoved her aside. "Here we go again! Zoe will say anything to avoid the divorce!"Rachel stumbled from the force of Leon's push. She was exhausted and tired from staying up all night. I wanted to catch her, but my efforts were in vain.Leon didn't notice the panic spreading across Abigail's face as he was too focused on Rachel."Fine. Show me some proof since you said Zoe's dead! I bet she's just regretting it again. She texted me yesterday to say that she agreed to the divorce. Maybe I'll reconsider it if she's really dead," Leon said.Abigail tugged at his arm anxiously.Leon immediately turned to her and softened his voice, "Abigail, did that scare you? It's all Zoe's fault. She has ruined our mood with her drama!"Perhaps Abigail had recalled her actions, and her face turned pale. "Leon, maybe we should check on her. What if she's seriously hurt?"She hesitated and quickly added, almost as if hiding her guilt, "I'm sure she's fine. Since we've

    "Rachel, what the hell is wrong with you?" Leon's sleepy and groggy voice came through. He was obviously angry. "We're getting a divorce tomorrow. What does Zoe want this time?""Leon, is it Zoe? Did she change her mind again?" Abigail's soft and cautious voice was heard, and there was even a slight hint of panic in her tone. "I just want to be with you. Why can't she fulfill my one small wish?"I heard some rustling. Leon must have said something to calm Abigail.Then, he barked, "Stop testing my patience with your silly games! Tell Zoe she'd better give up any hope she's clinging to and get the divorce done with me tomorrow!""Wait, no—" Rachel tried to say something, but Leon abruptly hung up the phone.She couldn't reach him at all after that.Leon had blocked her.Rachel was now sitting on the floor in defeat. I wanted to pat her head so badly, to tell her that she had done all she could and that none of this was her fault.However, all I could do was float above her and w
