Chapter 16

Autor: His Shadow
Raymond's words struck the crowd like a lightning bolt, making everyone freeze on the spot, especially Gianna and the rest of Tracy's friends.

Laura was also stunned.

"That's impossible! I've seen Tracy's pregnancy reports! She is pregnant with the Johnsons'—"

"Tracy had bribed the gynaecologists at the hospital. Tom has already investigated everything," Raymond said with much difficulty as he produced a folder that Tom had just given to him.

"Tracy didn't just fake her pregnancy. She also faked being the one who saved my life three years ago, impersonating Melanie the whole time.

"She's also been using the Johnson family's name to bully and oppress others. This is all the evidence."

Laura ignored Tracy's pale, shocked face and snatched the folder from Raymond.

A short while later, she flung several documents at Tracy. The sharp edges on the paper left long, painful papercuts on her face.

However, Tracy didn't dare to wipe away the blood that trickled through the cuts. Instead

    The entire process of detaining, evidence collection, and sentencing took just 15 days.Melanie watched as Laura's face drained of all its color.Laura, who was usually always prideful and arrogant, was taken away in a disheveled state, her hair in complete disarray, and looking like a deranged woman.Melanie also watched as the Johnson family empire, the one that had oppressed her for seven years, collapsed at her feet because of her.As for Tracy, Vincent had collected enough evidence to prove that she had bribed the hospital doctors to kill Bethany, so she was also taken away and later sentenced to death with a two-year reprieve.Raymond looked like he aged 20 years in court, completely losing all his spirit.Since Laura wasn't directly involved in Johnson Group's management and affairs, she was only stripped of all her assets.However, it was only ten days later, when she was unable to accept the fact that she'd lost her privileged life and was now in the bottom rung of soci

    Gianna and the others immediately went after Tracy, screaming in terror, "Somebody, help! Melanie pushed Tracy off the pavilion!"Laura and the other guests immediately hurried toward them.It was a very similar scene all over again.As soon as Tracy caught sight of Laura, her eyes turned red as she held her stomach pitifully, saying, "Mrs. Johnson! I was just telling Melanie to behave herself and not to degrade herself by being with disreputable people out of spite toward Ray…"I didn't think that she would get angry with me and say that… that she didn't like Ray anymore, and then, she even pushed me off the pavilion… She swore she would make sure the Johnson family would never have an heir…"I-I'm so scared, Mrs. Johnson!"Tracy then burst into tears.Gianna and the others also wept along with her."That's right, Mrs. Johnson! We all saw it happen! Tracy is such a kind person, but Ms. Strickland yelled and cursed at her like she was going to kill her!"Yeah, I also heard her

    The world seemed to freeze for a moment.Raymond opened his mouth to speak, but he suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood instead."Mom is… dead?"H-How could that be? Stop joking around, Melanie! This isn't funny! How could Mom be dead?"She can't be… She can't be dead…"Raymond wouldn't stop shaking his head. However, his mind went back to the time he first met Bethany.Back then, he couldn't put up with Laura's control anymore and ran away from home. It had been raining heavily in Bell City that day, and he wouldn't stop crying as he kept running down the streets in the rain.Bethany was the one who first noticed him and brought him home.He remembered how Bethany poured him a warm glass of milk, dried his hair, and gently told him, "Don't be afraid. Just sleep well for the night."That had been the first time he'd ever experienced the warmth of a family.So, when he heard that the Stricklands had gone bankrupt, and Bethany and Melanie had nowhere to go, he insisted on go

    Raymond practically flew down the stairs when he saw Vincent's car stopping at the entrance."Watch your head," Vincent said, gently opening the door as he escorted Melanie out from the backseat.Melanie didn't really dress up that day. She only had a light touch of makeup on her face, and even her dress was a plain and simple white one.Yet, she was instantly the most eye-catching person at the entire banquet, most probably because of how elegant her actions and mannerisms were, thanks to years of practice."Melanie… Y-You're here…"Raymond stared at the person whom he'd been dreaming of day and night, who was now standing right in front of him, and suddenly began to stammer.On the flipside, Melanie was poised and confident as she greeted him."Yes. Congratulations."It was just two words. Raymond then realized that he'd burned his fingers with the cigarette butt still between his fingers."Melanie, you've misunderstood things. This birthday banquet is just a—""Ray!"Trac

    "Who told Melanie to keep clinging to the position of Raymond's wife? If I never provoked her, she would never have given up and left on her own accord," Tracy said, sneering."And Laura too. She's also another dummy. I just had to say a word or two to frame Melanie, saying that my stomach hurt, and that senile old hag immediately scrambled to avenge me. It's hilarious!"Every single word felt like a poisonous knife, slashing the image of the kind, sensible, and innocent young lady Raymond had always had of Tracy, leaving her completely unrecognizable.His bodyguard asked in a trembling voice, "Should we still go in, Mr. Johnson?"Raymond closed his eyes and turned to leave, saying, "Don't tell her that I was here."Raymond went back to the manor and drowned his sorrows in wine, one glass after another.He recalled everything that Tracy had just said.She faked being the person who saved his life because she only wanted to marry into wealth.She abandoned the pregnant Melanie b
