Lahat ng Kabanata ng A Fatal Glow: Kabanata 1 - Kabanata 10

I listened to the video game kill sounds coming through my phone, followed by the cold, relentless tone of a disconnected call. My whole body trembled with panic.I was a chemical restoration specialist.To make it easier to work on certain restoration projects, I had converted a room in my house into a private workshop. It contained hazardous chemical reagents that I had properly registered and stored in compliance with safety regulations.I did not have my mother-in-law's or my sister-in-law, Jeannie Lloyd's, contact information, so my only option was to keep calling my husband, Chester Lloyd.I called him more than a dozen times in a row. Every single time, he hung up on me. With no other choice, I immediately hailed a cab from my parents' house and urged the driver to turn around and head back.Throughout the ride, I kept refreshing Jeannie's livestream.They were already live. The moment I saw what was happening, my hands began to shake uncontrollably.On the screen, the wo

The taxi sped down the road.I stared at my phone, my eyes fixed on my mother-in-law's hands on the livestream. Her fingers were already gripping the cap of the light-resistant glass bottle. My ordinary comments were swallowed up by the flood of messages almost instantly, making them completely useless.I opened the paid interaction page on the livestream and sent the highest-value Super Chat without a moment's hesitation.A bright animation announcing the paid message immediately caught everyone's attention.Jeannie finally stopped what she was doing. Her eyes lit up, and she hurried back in front of the camera, thanking the donor over and over."Thank you so much for your generous Super Chat!""Wow, you are incredibly generous! Just tell me how much you want us to dump out. I promise to give you a show you won't forget!"While Jeannie's attention was completely focused on the donation, I quickly typed out a warning.[This is Xena! That bottle contains highly concentrated indu

Jeannie was slumped beside the bathtub, both hands pressed over her eyes as she let out a heart-wrenching scream."My eyes! I can't see! It hurts! It hurts so much!"Chester's legs gave out beneath him and he collapsed onto the floor. He reached out to help his mother, but he had no idea where he could touch her. Corrosive acid covered her body and even the slightest contact sent her into another fit of agonized screaming."Mom! What happened to you? Please, don't scare me like this!" Chester burst into tears. Then he turned toward me and roared, "What are you just standing there for? Help them!"I stood outside the bathroom without stepping even half a foot inside. I knew exactly how dangerous highly concentrated industrial sulfuric acid could be.Without proper protective equipment, rushing in would only risk causing more injuries.I pulled out my phone and immediately called 911. I calmly explained the situation to the dispatcher."This is Unit 1201, Building 8, Block 3. Ther

Half an hour later, I was escorted into a conference room at the police station.Chester was already sitting inside with his head buried in his hands. He looked restless and agitated. The moment he saw me enter, he shot to his feet, ready to start shouting insults, but the officer behind him immediately barked an order."Sit down! Behave yourself!"The officer in charge was holding a freshly printed report summarizing the findings of the investigation. He slapped it firmly onto the table."We've completed our investigation."His voice rang through the room, leaving no room for argument."The injured parties, Rebecca Zeller and Jeannie Lloyd, unlawfully entered a restricted area of the property without the owner's permission."They also used force to break the door lock and deliberately damaged another person's property."Despite being explicitly informed that the substance was highly concentrated sulfuric acid and receiving a clear warning about the danger, the injured parties

The livestreamers surrounding me fell silent for a moment. They stared at the USB drive in my hand like starving wolves eyeing a piece of meat.Chester's expression changed. A flicker of panic flashed across his eyes, but he quickly started shouting, trying to drown me out."Don't listen to her lies! She is a fraud!"She is just trying to buy time and shirk responsibility!"She has no evidence! The important thing is to make her pay for the medical bills and save those two women!"I ignored his shouting completely. Looking straight into the nearest camera, I spoke in a calm, steady voice, making sure every word was captured."In ten minutes, I will upload all the evidence online."Then you can judge for yourselves who is telling the truth."With that, I pushed past the people blocking my way and walked straight out of the company building.Chester tried to grab me, but several security guards held him back.I walked to the roadside, hailed a taxi, and headed to an internet ca
