Seeing the doctor come out, everyone anxiously gathered around. The doctor took off his mask and shook his head with deep regret. “I’m sorry for your loss.” Those two words hit the attendees like a thunderclap, leaving them stunned. “What did you say? It can’t be!” Leonardo stepped forward and grabbed the doctor’s collar, demanding, “Explain!” Luca quickly intervened, grabbing Leonardo's hand. “Calm down; let go for now. Just listen to what the doctor has to say.” The doctor was used to such scenes by now. He understood their feelings and explained, “The knife pierced the heart, and there were also injuries to the abdomen and spleen. I’m sorry, but we did everything we could.” Upon hearing this, Leonardo staggered back a few steps as if he had just received a death sentence. The doctor looked at everyone present and continued, “You might

Although everyone was reluctant to part with Mariah, they all understood that this was the procedure that couldn’t be disrupted. Vanessa had no choice but to turn away, pretending not to see, as if that would somehow dull the pain of separation. Considering everyone’s emotions, the police, before leaving, solemnly said, “Don’t worry, we will return the body to you soon. We will also initiate an immediate investigation and provide you with answers.” In truth, the answers didn’t matter much anymore. A person could not be brought back to life; what could be more significant than a life lost? Moreover, everyone present knew that the culprit was Beatriz, but without any evidence, they could only swallow their bitterness in silence. After Mariah was taken away, the remaining few had no reason to stay at the hospital and each returned home. As soon as

Vanessa walked into the living room and took out a bottle of wine. She felt overwhelmed by the emotions she had been harboring and wanted to vent them through drinking. Luca remained silent but quietly sat down beside her, nudging his glass toward her. The two shared a silent understanding, drinking one cup after another without speaking. After a few glasses, Vanessa felt a little better and finally confessed to Luca about what had just happened. “I don’t know why I had such a nightmare, but if it weren’t for me, Mariah should be very happy at this moment, not having lost her life at such a young age. I was the one who caused her harm.” Seemingly affected by Vanessa's emotions, Luca felt a pang of sympathy. He gently pulled Vanessa into his arms and comforted her, “Don’t think too much. The reason you have these dreams is that you’ve put

The company executives hesitated upon hearing her words. Beatriz sensed their indecision and continued, “Mr. Salt, just look at it. Leonardo has already terminated his contract with the company. I understand you want to help him as an old employer, but think about it: you’re all in the same entertainment circle. Now that he’s left the company, conflicts over resources with other artists are inevitable. Do you really believe that when the time comes, he’ll still remember these feelings? It’s only a matter of time before the relationship deteriorates.” Hearing this, the other party recalled how such situations were common in the entertainment industry and hesitated even more. Seeing their reluctance to make a decision, Beatriz grew impatient and considered abandoning this pawn. Just then, the other party finally relented, “Alright, Miss Langley, I’ll coop

The maid fell unconscious after being hit. Beatriz quickly found a sturdy rope and securely tied her up, throwing her into the storage room. Looking at Ezra, who stood in the living room looking bewildered, Beatriz approached to comfort him. “Ezra, don’t be afraid. Leave this to Mommy; you go upstairs and rest.” As she spoke, Beatriz fetched her son’s medication and fed it to him. Originally meant to control his emotions, she had secretly replaced it with sleeping pills. Ezra had no idea, and after taking the medicine, he soon drifted into a deep sleep. Beatriz went downstairs and searched the living room, finding Grandpa Kensington’s phone. She opened the contacts, found Vanessa’s number, and sent her a message asking her to come to the residence immediately. When Vanessa saw the message, she was puzzled. Why would Grandpa
