Chapter 11
After he finished speaking, there was only deathly silence in the ward.
This punishment is more severe than taking her life directly.
After all, her future was ruined, and she couldn’t use her child to get the bonus.
“Where’s Daniel?” I asked.
“He’s crazy.” Lucas said succinctly, “He saw what came off the operating table with his own eyes and collapsed on the spot. Now he’s in a mental hospital and can’t even speak clearly.”
I have lost my future and my money. How can I not go crazy?
He looked at me and continued, “The police have also made new progress. They dug something up underneath the abandoned factory.”
My heart sank.
“It’s the skeletons. More than one. They are all missing young girls.”
Lucas submitted the Blood Knot Charm as the key evidence, along with a professional report from his father’s hospital. The rare parasite became irrefutable evidence.
When Sophia heard that she would never be a mother in her lifetime and was also told that she might be involved in a serial murder case, her psychological defenses collapsed instantly.
She said everything.
The so-called Blood Knot Charm was not a magic weapon of a high monk at all. She got it from a pervert named Richard.
The cruise party was a screening event held by Richard to find the “mother” that could give birth to the “monster”.
He gave Sophia two knots, one main and one secondary, and asked her to find a girl of good bloodline to wear the secondary knot to ward off the curse for her. She herself could then live a carefree life with the huge reward she got for her pregnancy.
As for those chosen girls, once they give birth to “monsters”, they will be treated like garbage and buried in the wilderness.
Sophia chose me for the money.
She had even discussed with Daniel long ago that after I gave birth to the baby and they got the money, they would fake postpartum depression for me and make me commit suicide.
Daniel felt a little guilty at first, but Sophia used money and her body as bait, and he finally
fell into it.
The truth was revealed layer by layer, and it became ugly.
As an accomplice, Daniel was directly arrested.
When the police handcuffed him and passed by me, he suddenly struggled like a mad dog
and roared at me.
“Emily! Emily! I was wrong! Please forgive me! Please forgive me!”
I just watched indifferently without saying a word.
forgive?
Why?
Who will forgive me for the tragic death I suffered in my previous life?
“Emily! You’ve ruined me! Even if I become a ghost I won’t let you go!”
Sophia was in the dock, her hair disheveled, screaming in my direction, her voice so sharp that it pierced the solemnity of the courtroom.
The Kingsley family tree fell, and the vines that once clung to it were uprooted.
Richard, his all-powerful father, and all the participants were left without a single one escaping.
As for Sophia, she was convicted of intentional injury and abetting attempted murder, and was sentenced to twenty years in prison for multiple crimes.
I looked at her distorted face and replied softly.
“I’ll wait.”
The courtroom door closed behind me, isolating the impotent curse inside.
The sunlight outside was glaring, so I raised my hand to block it so that I could see the person standing at the bottom of the stairs.
Lucas held a bunch of sunflowers in his hands, shining brightly like they could light up the entire street.
