Chapter 10

Author: Perfect Timing
When Leonard, Cynthia, and Irene Ludlow heard what I said, they all froze in place, stunned.

None of them expected me to swear, given that I was usually so meek and submissive.

Leonard was the first to recover. He charged at me, intending to lash out at me. "You damn bitch! You lied to me! Give me back my money! I'm going to beat you to death!"

In the end, he didn't manage to lay his finger on me. The bodyguards who'd been watching from outside the room the whole time rushed in and restrained him in a flash.

Pinned to the floor like that, he looked no different from a pitiful stray.

When Amanda, who'd just returned from picking up medicine, saw this scene, she panicked as well.

She rushed over to me and pulled at my hair, shouting, "You bitch! How dare you hit my son! I'm going to rip your face apart!"

At the end of the day, Amanda was used to a pampered life. Coupled with her old age, she was extremely inflexible.

I turned slightly to the side, causing her to miss me. Then, i

    Leonard and I filed for divorce five days later. The Zieglers lived in an old house left behind by Graham, which I neither wanted nor cared for.However, the money was rightfully mine, so I had to come up with a valid reason to get it into an account under my name as soon as possible.I soon found a perfect method for transferring our marital assets.I contacted a friend who made cakes in advance and bought some desserts at an exorbitant price, then had them delivered to Cynthia in the Ziegler residence as takeout.Cynthia happily hid in her room and ate the desserts on the sly, afraid that Amanda and Leonard would find out about them.In just a few days, her face was covered with acne, and she'd gained a dozen pounds.Her memory was also deteriorating, and she would sometimes forget to flush after using the toilet. I noticed an abnormal amount of bleeding in her urine and knew that she didn't have long left to live.…The day finally came for Leonard and me to receive our divo

    In addition to cervical cancer, Cynthia also had severe bulimia and alcohol addiction. Her father, Graham, had a fondness for drinking and eating meat, so Amanda and Leonard saw Cynthia as his reincarnation. They insisted she eat rich, meat-heavy meals from childhood, which led to her developing a host of unhealthy eating habits.She'd only seen a bit of relief after I married into the Ziegler family and started consciously managing her eating habits.However, after Amanda realized Cynthia could no longer eat as much as before I joined the family, she began spreading rumors that I was bad luck.She made it so that I was unable to face our neighbors properly.I'd certainly like to see who exactly brought the bad luck now!After dinner, Amanda and I discussed the situation for a while.I offered to sell our house and car to scrounge up a bit of money to buy Uncle Andrew a Patek Philippe watch. Leonard's head shook vigorously in disagreement when he heard this. "That won't do! I

    Amanda elaborated, "Here, Vicky. Take this. This bank card contains some funeral expenses I saved up for you—as much as 50,000 dollars. The password is written down on this piece of paper."Since we urgently need this money right now, take it and buy your uncle some nice things with the money at the shopping mall next door, Vicky."Funeral expenses that Amanda had saved up?I almost laughed out loud at that. The Zieglers were really taking me for a fool.This money came from monetary gifts given by my friends back when Leonard and I got married. Amanda had taken it all for herself, only to now present it as funeral expenses.Was this my cue to praise her as an all-knowing prophet and the best mother-in-law in the world?She was dreaming if she thought this meager sum was enough to win Uncle Andrew's favor!She was better off using this money to buy Cynthia a couple more of the latest accessories so the latter could die a little happier.I calmed myself down and cleared my throa

    I suppressed my disgust and continued to lead the conversation on. "Having a statue made and a shrine built would be very expensive, though. Where would we get so much money?"Amanda was no slouch either. She had even more petty, dirty tricks up her sleeve than Cynthia did. Sure enough, she immediately pulled me down to sit next to her and feigned an air of mystery. "I heard that after your parents died, it was your uncle on your mother's side who raised you, right? He was a company president or something, wasn't he? I heard his company will be going public soon!"I also heard that he treated you very well back then. He made sure you had the best food, clothing, and education available. I even remember you mentioning just now that he's still unmarried and has nobody to take care of him in his old age."Although I didn't know where Amanda had heard all that information from, she was certainly correct.After my parents died, I'd been raised by my wealthy uncle, Andrew Lowry.Uncle A

    "You know, Victoria, there's an old saying that goes, 'The sooner one dies, the sooner one is freed from the pain of living. Death is the true blessing," Cynthia said sagely.She wasn't a very learned person, but she'd certainly picked up a great deal of preposterous logic from Amanda.Seeing my lack of reaction, Amanda added, "That's right. Leo simply doesn't want to be apart from you, which is why he lost his temper out of frustration and helplessness. We're all family, so there's no such thing as one of us being a burden on the rest!"I argued bluntly, "Since death is such a good thing, then you should let Leonard die with me. We can be a couple in death and not suffer in the world of the living anymore!""How dare you curse me, you damn bitch?" bellowed Leonard.I'd set him off again.Just as he was going to charge at me with a slipper to beat me with, Amanda surprisingly slapped him in the face."You useless fool! I've raised you in vain all these years! You can't hit your
