The CEO Ex-Wife's Revenge のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 191 - チャプター 200

“Ah ha! There we have it! I knew there was more to this. It was a mistake, dearest Saint Derek, as I have told you countless times. I was discharged and acquitted by the police after all that brouhaha. Hell, her mother attested to that fact and told everyone how manic her daughter truly was. You know that very well. It was simply self-defense, and I don’t get why you think I should have spent the rest of my life in prison simply for defending myself.”“It doesn’t change the fact that you killed her. Also, don’t forget that I was in the same house with both of you that night. I call bullshit on the self-defense story that you made everyone believe. It wasn’t self-defense. What it was is plain murder ... possibly premeditated murder, even.” Derek said, the usual feeling of guilt stirring up within him whenever the subject of late Victoria came up.“I …”“And what about her father ... the poor man you and Victoria’s greedy mother made everyone believe was crazy? You as well as killed tha

It turned out that Victoria's aunt had a coffee shop a few blocks away from where Steve lived. In fact, Derek and his friends had always frequented that coffee shop at least three times a week ever since they moved into that area.It was a marvel to Derek how he had never crossed paths with Victoria until now because according to her, she helped out her aunt a lot in the shop.She informed him that the reason was because she used to live in the school dormitory, but had now moved in with her aunt, who lived in the apartment above the coffee shop. After that encounter at the grocery store, the guys saw her nearly every time they went to the coffee shop and became close friends with her. In fact, Damien’s then-girlfriend, who attended the same book club and was an acquaintance of Victoria, also became good friends with her. Victoria began to spend time at Steve’s place with the guys and Damien’s girlfriend, which was were they hung out most of the time.Before anyone knew what was happ

Everything changed on Steve’s birthday. It was a great day for him because he loved being the center of attention, and his brother, his friends Derek and Damien, along with several other people had attended the lavish party he threw.There were drugs and drinks in abundance for everyone to imbibe as much as they liked, and of course, being youngsters, they took advantage of the offer.They had so much fun and went very wild at the party so much so that Victoria, who wasn’t used to such a scene, became extremely uncomfortable and left early.As far as Steve was concerned, her leaving the party was perfect because her presence there was stifling to him. She refused to do anything the others were doing and refused to take even a sip of alcohol because according to her, it was against her faith.She drank only juice and sat in a corner, looking extremely miserable and judgemental in Steve’s eyes. This caused him to feel very embarrassed and he inwardly promised himself never to invite her

The terror that Steve felt earlier quintupled immediately. This time around, however, he did not remain frozen in terror, because there was no time for that, and a sense of urgency had hit him.He rushed over to where Victoria was lying motionless on the ground and checked for a pulse. He found a very faint one and sagged in relief. Victoria was out cold though, and from the looks of her, she was going to be unconscious for quite a while, which was actually for the best, as he could go about discarding the corpses and think of how to convince her to keep her trap shut about the death of the girls.He could not go to jail for something that wasn’t his fault, after all. So he got the bodies of the two girls in the car and went back to make sure that the door to his house was locked firmly, and no one could get into it.He also took Victoria’s keys so that she would not be able to get out of the house. Then he got into his car, drove like a maniac to the lake where he planned to dump th

Steve took a minute to see if she would move, but she didn’t, so he approached her gingerly. Her right leg was resting at an odd angle, and was clearly broken, which was perfect for the story he was going to tell everyone about what had happened to her.He had pushed her down the stairs backwards, so that the bump at the back of her head from where it collided with the table earlier, could be explained away as a bump from her head colliding with the edges of the stairs.He bent beside her and was aghast to see that she had survived this fall. How on earth was that possible? The stairs were high enough for her to have succumbed to the fall, especially considering that she already wasn’t in the best of conditions when he pushed her down them.He did not bother to wait to analyze the situation any longer, but instead, hurried over to pick up the throw pillow from earlier, and placed it over her face.Her struggles were very feeble because of the injuries she sustained from the fall.
