Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 1168

Myah's heart skipped a beat at Shannon's final words. Panic flashed across her face.

"What are you talking about? I didn't…"

She'd just held Callum down, and she hadn't been the one to strangle Callum to death.

But when she met Shannon's penetrating stare that seemed to see through everything, her heartbeat thundered in her chest.

Callum's expression of disbelief and despair in his final moments coupled with the vengeful look he'd shown when he'd lunged toward her as an evil spirit flashed in her mind. Her back pressed against the altar.

As if angered by Shannon's stare, she shrieked indignantly, "Why! I gave life to him, and his life is mine to take! Even if I… Why would I suffer for taking back what belongs to me? What did I do wrong?"

"He may be your child, but he was an independent being from the moment he took form and was born. No one has the right to take another's life, and not even a mother."

Myah refused to accept this. She muttered under her breath, "Why… I suffered so much for him…"

Andre's icy voice came from Elliot's phone. He appeared to be gnashing his teeth as he said, "Myah, I never thought you could be this heartless…

"I'll file for divorce. I could forgive you if it were just your betrayal, but what you did to Cal was intolerable!"

If he hadn't heard it with his own ears, he'd never believe the truth behind Callum's death.

She was his mother, so how could she have the heart to kill him and…

Myah paled as she realized Andre had overheard everything. But it was too late to regret it.

Andre ignored her and thanked Shannon's team. Then, he asked for their location. He wanted to see Callum one last time.

Myah wasn't in a hurry to leave either since he'd be coming over. She hoped to salvage their marriage.

But before Andre could arrive, the police came first. The police were sent by the Security Agency to apprehend one of the primary suspects in a past case involving the dismemberment of a minor.

The police and Security Agency often collaborated. Cases involving supernatural beings were handed over to the Security Agency, and crimes involving humans were turned over to the police.

As Myah was taken away, she was still in a daze. When the consequences of what she'd done hit her, she started to panic, struggle, and beg for mercy.
