“What a nonsense! She was doing bad things and hurting people in the morning and turned into ashes in the afternoon? Do you think I would believe it?”
“If she really died, who else would want to harm Hillary’s twin sons? Could it be Hillary herself?”
The two words he blurted out in anger made his childhood sweetheart, who was standing beside him, shudder.
I was speechless to laugh.
Even after I died, I was still accused and blamed for things I didn’t do.
I only hated I couldn’t write a will before I died and couldn’t have a proper funeral. Otherwise, I could speak up about the crimes and cruelty they committed against me and seek justice for myself.
The assistant paused for a moment and continued explaining..
“Why don’t you come and take a look yourself, Sir? I can’t explain it iclearly, but the test results do show that.”
Diego angrily rebuked.
“I’m not free now. I warn you not to play tricks on me. I know whether Zara is dead or not. If you can’t find her whereabouts, then you don’t have to do it anymore!”
He hung up the phone, took off his coat and threw it hard on the chair.
“One by one, they helped her to deceive me. I was only abroad for a year. How many people did she buy off? Zara, I did underestimate you.”
When people were speechless, they could laugh, but when a lost soul like me was speechless, I could only blow a breath behind him.
He shrank back, met Hillary’s pitiful eyes and suppressed his anger.
“Don’t be afraid Hillary, I’m here.”
Hillary shrank into his arms with teary eyes and said coquettishly, “I’m not afraid. With you here, I’m not afraid of anything.”
At night, both of them stayed in the hospital, guarding their children.
She fell into a deep sleep in Diego’s arms, but Diego couldn’t fall asleep at all.
He hesitated for a long time before sending a message to his assistant.
[Where is the address of the cemetery you mentioned? Send it to me!]
Oliver quickly sent the location. Looking at the address, Diego was stunned for a long time and finally murmured.
“Zara, if you continue to be so disobedient and waste my feelings for you, I will really stop loving you.”
He looked into the distance, with a helpless and desolate expression in his eyes, but there

Diego always thought of himself as a hero, always thought of himself as some kind of
savior.
From childhood, in his eyes, I had always been the domineering and willful one.
We had known each other since childhood and I had also liked him since childhood. Diego was good–looking, smart, cold and reserved, but he was gentle to me.
I thought he and I would fall in love, grow up and get married without any problems. When he was twelve years old, a new nanny came to his house, bringing her daughter Hillary.
The first time he got angry at me was also because of Hillary.
I caught her wearing my necklace secretly. I was very angry, but she threw the necklace hard on the ground.
“I just found it and planned to give it back to you, but you scolded me for not being worthy of your things. In your eyes, are we poor people inferior to others?”
Before I could explain, Diego scolded me harshly.
“Enough Zara! Stop bullying others!”
I cried the whole night, feeling sad for a long time, but still couldn’t let go of my emotions.
I began to defend him in my heart, saying that he was just too righteous and kind. Looking back now, perhaps from the beginning, I took the wrong path.
Back then, he had to choose between me and Hillary. In fact, I had convinced myself several times not to love him anymore.
I was also a good girl and many people loved me. I didn’t want to waste my time on him
anymore.
I told myself not to be cheap and not to be the one who was chosen. Just as I was making up my mind to leave, my father passed away unexpectedly.
My mother passed away very early and my father was busy with his career and never remarried. I grew up alone and did whatever I wanted, so I was bold and reckless.
