I continued ignoring Henry and Mom. I acted as though I didn’t hear a thing no matter how they cussed at me.

After the trial was adjourned, Mark and I immediately busied ourselves with finding a breakthrough in this case.

We needed to convince our key witness to stick to our original agreement. In addition to re–identifying Julianne as the mastermind, we also wanted him to testify that Irvin hall interfered with the judicial process.

As we were in the midst of figuring out how to do this, we suddenly received news from the detention center- Julianne was dead!

She had always had a sickly body. Additionally, she had lived a pampered lifestyle. Thus, she couldn’t bear the conditions in the detention center.

On the third day after Julianne had been detained, she started to feel unwell. Then, she fell seriously ill by the fifth day. She had also been sick yesterday. As the doctors at the detention center weren’t equipped to treat her, she had been sent to the nearest hospital to receive medical treatment.

Mysteriously, a gas pipe had exploded in the same hospital last night–and it just so happened to occur in the very room Julianne was in. The resultant fire from the explosion had burned her body to a crisp, so she was nothing but a charred corpse now.

The news seriously shocked me. I was frozen in place for the longest time before I eventually snapped out of it. Even then, I was still in disbelief.

I refused to believe Julianne was dead–she had definitely faked it!

I immediately rushed to the hospital with Mark and a team of forensic experts in tow. When we arrived at the morgue, my family and Irvin were already there.

Judging from Mom’s and Henry’s sorrowful expressions, I doubted they were involved in her death. Because of this and their incapability to influence our key witness, I no longer suspected them of helping her.

Mom immediately charged at me when she spotted me.

“You bitch! This is all your fault! It’s all your fault! You’re the one who should’ve died! So why is Lianne dead?” she cried with a savage look in her eyes.

Mom was a strong woman, and right now, she looked like she wanted to tear me limb from limb. She might even be able to kill me if I were alone

But unfortunately for her, I wasn’t. Hence, she couldn’t get close to me no matter how enraged she was..

This only made her angrier, so she screamed at me to die. Henry chimed in as well and shouted the same thing.

The officers present couldn’t stand their yelling and told them to be quiet. One of them said Julianne’s death was an accident, so I shouldn’t be blamed for it.

However, Mom was hell–bent on doing so.

“It was because of you! You wanted to take Lianne to court just so she would end up in jail! She ended up in the

this hospital if it detention center because of your relentlessness! She wouldn’t have fallen sick and gotten ser wasn’t for you. Then, she wouldn’t have died in this damn place!

“It’s your fault! It’s all your fault, you bitch! It’s her! She’s the killer! It’s her fault that Lianne is dead!” she

screamed.

Mom and Henry were overwhelmed with their grief as they mourned Julianne’s death. As the officers didn’t know the full story, they assumed Julianne was their biological daughter. As for me, they thought I was the adoptive daughter since I was being blamed.

Although my parents‘ reactions were extreme and they were being unreasonable, their pain was understandable. Their daughter had passed away, after all.
