Chapter 4

Author: Dear Orange
Renee stood frozen in place. After a long moment, she suddenly grabbed the doctor by the collar.

“That’s impossible. You’re lying to me!”

Her tone was so certain, as if she had already decided the doctor was lying.

“How much did they pay you? Is that why you are covering for them?”

Renee was a spoiled princess born with a silver spoon, but that did not mean the doctor was a pushover.

The doctor said coldly, “Instead of lying to yourself here, maybe you should think about what that little gi

    Her assistant carefully said, “Ms. Austin, didn’t Mr. Rainier already pass away?”Renee was practically shouting. “Impossible. I need proof, dead or alive. I don’t believe he’s dead. He must be blaming me. Find him. I’ll apologize to him!”The assistant’s voice dropped even lower, carrying a trace of pity. “Mr. Rainier has passed away. Last week, someone delivered his death certificate to the company’s front desk. I wanted to tell you then, but you said you didn’t want to hear anything about Mr. Rainier.”Renee could no longer make out the rest of what the assistant said.Her phone crashed to the floor.As if all the strength had been drained from her body, she collapsed weakly to the floor.How ironic.I floated in the air and looked at the woman who had once been so proud and untouchable. I sneered.Was this regret?Too late.There was no way to undo any of it.The funeral ended hastily in an eerie, unsettling silence.Renee seemed to become a different person.She wip

    Jacob’s face darkened.“Renee, I didn’t know anything about this.”The other girl snorted.“Jacob, did you really not know? Ever since you left home, you never once asked how we were doing. Mom and Dad could barely keep food on the table. If it hadn’t been for Cameron, all of us would’ve starved.”Renee stared hard at Jacob.“Didn’t you say you only gambled and got into debt because of your family? Then, why are they saying this?”Cold sweat broke out across Jacob’s forehead.He tried to take Renee’s hand, but she shook him off hard.“Renee, listen to me. My parents always exaggerated things. It was never that bad at home.”His voice carried its usual softness and wounded innocence.“As for the gambling, I admit I messed up. But I only did it because I wanted to make more money, so we could have a better life after we got married.”“Enough!”He was cut off before he could finish.The older girl stared at him coldly.“Jacob, do you remember when Mom got sick last year? She

    The call was suddenly cut off. Only then did I realize my face was covered in tears.I thought, ‘Renee, I’m never getting out of here.’Renee moved fast.Andrea’s funeral was arranged with great extravagance.Jacob pushed the door open and walked in.He took Renee’s hand. “Renee, you’re too kind. Even though Cameron never showed up, you still helped his sister.”Renee sighed.“No matter what, she was still my sister. This is the least I could do. Come on. It’s about to start. Let’s go out.”I floated beside Renee. All I felt was bitter contempt.She killed my sister.Just because she had given Andrea a funeral, she was kind?‘Renee, I will never thank you for this,’ I thought.Perhaps Renee felt something. She glanced in my direction.Jacob immediately spoke up. “Renee, what are you looking at?”Renee shook her head, distracted and uneasy.“Nothing.”The funeral began soon after.Halfway through the ceremony, two little girls in ragged clothes walked in.The moment Ja

    Her words stabbed deep into my heart. I could not tell if she had meant them or if she had only been pretending.Renee did not look at me again. She turned and pulled Jacob away.At that moment, I finally understood. In her eyes, I had never been her one and only.I had only been a way for her to pass the time when she felt bored.At the underground casino, they had torn out my fingernails one by one. Even that had not satisfied them.I did not know how much Jacob had owed for them to treat me with such cruelty.They had even broken one of my legs and watched me crawl across the floor like a dog for their amusement.In just a few days, I had become little more than a body covered in blood.Maybe because I had cried too much, my eyes had gradually gone dry, until there was not a tear left.Even my throat had grown so raw that I could no longer scream.The men at the underground casino had lost interest. No matter how many new ways they tried to torture me, they no longer found

    Renee sobbed in Jacob’s arms. Her tears kept falling.She kept telling him the story of how she and I had met and grown up together.“Cameron and I grew up together. After his parents died, he and his sister only had each other. I was practically Andrea’s sister too. I want to hold a funeral for her.”As Jacob listened to her, a ruthless glint appeared in his eyes.He thought, ‘Thank goodness. Even the only person who knows the truth is dead. Now, no one will ever know what really happened at the underground casino. Cameron is nothing more than a dead man now. A dead man can never open his mouth to speak of the wrongs he has suffered.’Renee was a very smart woman. She sensed the shift in Jacob’s mood.However, she did not think too much of it. She only assumed Andrea’s death had hit them both too hard.Then, she suddenly asked, “Jacob, those debts you owed before, they were only for your family’s medical bills, right?”Jacob stiffened for a moment, then nodded. He looked as th

Her body was covered in bruises. Don’t tell me none of you saw them.”Only then did Renee let go of his collar, dazed.To be honest, she seemed to have forgotten what Andrea had looked like before she died.Once, she had sworn that she would protect Andrea for the rest of her life. Even if Andrea had the mind of a child, Renee had promised never to let anyone bully her.Yet she had become the one who had personally pushed Andrea into the abyss.I stared at Renee’s face. My
