  • He Thought My Mother Died, but It Was His   Chapter 9

    In the end, Josiah, who had been detained for desecrating a body, was released after only a few days.While Mom was out buying groceries, he kept pounding on our front door.When I opened it, his eyes lit up for a moment upon seeing me. But the hatred within them was stronger."Sienna, you bitch! You knew all along, didn't you? You deliberately watched me—"He couldn't finish. He gagged a few times, his face twisted in hatred."I told you," I said calmly."I said 'Mom' was kidnapped, and you immediately assumed that it was mine."That was why he could hang up the phone so calmly. Even when he got the body, he could blow her up like fireworks with glee. Then he tossed what was left of her into a dog bowl. To him, that was my mom. A lowly relative who should have been discarded long ago.Since it was my mom, he could humiliate her at will.It was my mom, so she deserved to die.If the kidnappers had really taken Mom that day, Josiah would probably now be cuddling Vivian, feed

    The reporters' questions were ruthless.Josiah looked at the dog bowl. It still had traces of blood, but the dog itself was long gone.At that moment, Rupert ignored all the reporters and looked at Josiah with undisguised contempt, like his own son was trash. He walked to the fire hydrant in the corner, smashed the glass with a punch, and twisted the valve. Water shot straight at Josiah, hitting him with full force and knocking him to the ground. The water kept pouring, drenching him as if it were washing a filthy object."Throw him out. From today on, I have no such son."The bodyguards immediately grabbed the dazed Josiah and dragged him out. As he passed me, he glanced at me.I calmly met his eyes and looked away. Then, I walked over to Rupert."This is the last time I shall address you as Dad," I said.Rupert looked at me, his expression complicated.I handed him the signed divorce papers."This is the divorce agreement between Josiah and me. The lawyers have already

    The journalists didn't back off. If anything, they surged forward instead."Did you get it? Get their faces!""Close-up! Make sure the dog bowl's in the frame!"Vivian knew that it was over for her.She spat at Josiah. "Look at you now. Don't you look just like a dog? No, you're worse than one. At least the dog wagged its tail while chewing your mom's bones. Your mom's been eaten. Your dad doesn't want you. And now I'm leaving too! Serves you right to never have children! Hahaha!"Rupert froze, then let his hand drop from his chest. He was probably thinking that if there really was a grandchild on the way, maybe the Broadway family could salvage a shred of its dignity.Vivian saw hope and started crying again. She struggled toward Josiah, pressing her stomach forward."Jo, I was wrong! Have mercy on me. I didn't mean to say those things to you. You were beating me up, and it hurt so much. I just said things without thinking. You can't have our baby coming into the world with thi

    Vivian finally broke down. "I was forced to do so! I owed loan sharks, and they were going to cut off my hands. Jo, I had no choice! I just wanted to scare Sienna's mom, and I never meant to hurt Mrs. Broadway Senior!"She continued, "I did all this because I love you! As long as you divorce Sienna, I'll marry you! Then I'll have the money to pay off my gambling debts! "Jo, please, forgive me this once. I never meant for things to go this far. Help me pay off my debts, and we can live a good life together! Otherwise, they'll really come after me!"Josiah suddenly laughed. But there was nothing in it but despair."The bags I bought you… The car I gave you… The apartment downtown… Weren't those enough to cover your debts?Vivian's voice turned sharp and hysterical. "Those were gifts you gave when you felt like it! Things you could take back the second you got bored! I want money that's actually mine. Money that lets me stand on my own! I don't want to live like some pet that has

    The bodyguards rushed forward, pinning Josiah to the ground as he struggled and hurled curses.Just then, Michael hurried in, whispering urgently in Rupert's ear.Rupert's expression darkened even further. He looked down at Josiah. Whatever bond of father and son remained was gone, replaced by nothing but disgust."The kidnappers have been caught. They confessed that they never intended to kill your mother."Josiah stopped struggling.Rupert let out a harsh laugh."They said they killed her because they called you 99 times and you didn't even answer once. As for the last call, your precious Vivian hung up for you."Every gaze in the room turned to Vivian's pale face.Rupert continued, "They also called Sienna. She was frantic and kept trying to reach you, but she couldn't get through. What were you doing, Josiah? Well, you were celebrating with Vivian."He continued, "Even after your mother died, it was Sienna who arranged a rescue team to recover her body from the sea. But wh

  • He Thought My Mother Died, but It Was His   Chapter 4

    The color drained from Josiah's face in an instant.Just seconds earlier, he had been basking in his own triumph.Now, everything that had once been his mother had already been swallowed by the dog.I couldn't help but think back to when Carina was still alive. How she loved pointing a finger in my face, sneering as she called me trash."No way!" Josiah shook his head violently, refusing to believe it. "Dad's lying. He has to be! My mom had a spa appointment with Mrs. Miller and the others today! There's no way she was kidnapped!"He fumbled for his phone like a madman, his hands shaking as he dialed. "My mom is perfectly fine! The one who died has to be yours!"His eyes turned to me as his expression twisted with rage. "Sienna, this is your doing. You set this up!"A phone started ringing. Josiah froze when he heard it.His father, Rupert Broadway, shook with fury as he pointed straight at Vivian. "Why did your mother's phone end up in her hands? Josiah, you bastard!"Vivia
