The wedding began.
Leon was dressed in a black suit, looking very handsome. He stood on the stage, waiting for the bride to walk towards
him.
Watching the romantic atmosphere, Leon was slightly distracted.
If Eloise were here, she would definitely love it. She would tiptoe and gently kiss him on the face. Running around like a little butterfly, carefully observing the wedding scene.
Eloise was not here.
“Do not move! Put your hands up! A shout of anger caught everyone’s attention.”
Several police officers in uniform handcuffed Aurelie, their faces serious. People around them kept their distance, afraid of getting involved. But there were also some who were not afraid, approaching to ask the police what was go- ing on.
The police officer’s face turned cold. “The suspect is accused of intentional homicide. We need to arrest her.”
In the crowd, there was an exclamation: “Oh my God! How could Aurelie, who is so gentle, commit murder?”
Leon, who was walking briskly towards Aurelie, froze for a few seconds upon hearing these words.
Yeah, how could Aurelie possibly have killed someone?
Yvonne, who was sitting not far away, slowly got up and walked over, her face full of sarcasm.
“Did you guys know? Aurelie had a congenital heart disease, but in order to survive, she dug out the heart of a girl from the orphanage. It’s a real life we’re talking about.”
The crowd looked to the police for confirmation, but the police neither confirmed nor denied, their expression re- maining serious.
Everyone took a look, and there was nothing left to be confused about.
“By the way, Aurelie also set up Eloise several times, like opening her own window in the middle of the night to fake a fever, or switching her medication…”
The Aurelie described by Yvonne was completely different from the one everyone knew, and they all started dis- cussing it.
At that moment, Aurelie had no idea that her actions would be revealed to everyone like this.
Leon was stunned, his expression filled with disbelief. He grabbed Aurelie’s arm and said, “You tell me you didn’t do

He couldn’t believe that a woman with such a weak memory had turned into this. But Aurelie’s response to him was a dodging gaze.
The ring box in Leon’s hand fell heavily to the ground, making a loud noise.
Aurelie was taken away. But as she was about to walk out the door, she frantically broke free from the police’s re- straints and ran towards Leon, embracing him tightly.
“I did all this for you, I don’t want to die, is it wrong for me to want to be with you? Aurelie’s voice was hoarse, tears welling up in her eyes as she pleaded with Leon.”
But this time, Leon did not respond to her embrace. He just watched as she was taken away by the police, his eyes blank.
Aurelie became a joke, but wasn’t Leon as well?
Leon’s inner pain made it almost impossible for him to catch his breath, guilt and regret instantly enveloping him. “Eloise, I’m sorry.”
Yvonne stood at the wedding venue, watching as guests began to leave one by one, feeling a mix of emotions. If Eloise were here, she would see what became of those who had bullied her.
Leon slowly raised his head and locked eyes with Yvonne.
Yvonne smirked and splashed a glass of wine on Leon’s face.
The icy liquid flowed down his cheek and into his collar, the sticky sensation causing Leon to furrow his brow. “What are you doing?”
Yvonne clapped her hands and casually said, “I dare you.”
There were still some people who hadn’t left and they noticed this scene, taking out their phones to take pictures. “Hey, look at this, Leon got splashed with wine by Yvonne!”
A sense of shame surged up in Leon’s heart in an instant, and he clenched his fists tightly. But after a while, his fists slowly loosened again.
This is Eloise’s sister. For so many days, he thought Eloise would come back to find him, but he was wrong. Eloise seemed to have vanished into thin air, completely disappeared from his world.
“Where did Eloise go?”
Yvonne was somewhat impressed by Leon’s audacity. At this point, he still had the nerve to ask Eloise where she had
gone.
She didn’t mince words, “When you pulled out all her nails, did you ever think about where she would go?”
“When you destroyed her mother’s heirlooms, did you ever think about where she would go?”
These two sentences pierced Leon’s heart like a sharp blade, causing his face to instantly turn pale.
He watched helplessly as Yvonne left, a sense of powerlessness washing over him.
“Oh, right.”
Yvonne walked to the door and suddenly said something.
