Chapter 18
Three days later, major news outlets all reported the same thing – a long- standing and significant serial murder case finally came to light.
In the video, countless reporters were crazily pushing against the police. who were maintaining order, pointing their cameras at the face of the murderer. The glaring flashes illuminated Estelle’s pale face.
In an instant, the spoon in Calista’s hand hit the cup’s wall with a faint. sound, and she realized she was trembling.
Not afraid, not shocked, but ecstatic!
Finally, she was completely safe at last!
Calista couldn’t hold back anymore and burst into tears, covering her face as if she wanted to release all the pain, grievances, suffering, and fear she had experienced in Estelle’s hands over the years.
After Calista had an abortion, she quietly slipped out of the hospital.
In order to prevent Eric from finding her, she gave up all means of transportation that required an ID, and relied on buses, motorcycles, and even black cars. After several days of twists and turns, she finally arrived in this remote village and obtained a new ID card with a changed name.
Calista cashed all the checks that Eric had given her in the past, and then deposited the money into a new bank account she had opened under a different name.
Then he bought a small courtyard with the money and started living a reclusive life.
She hardly ever left home. In the small courtyard, there was a pond, a vegetable garden, and also poultry being raised, which could meet her daily needs.
Even when she needed to buy daily necessities, Calista would still ask her familiar neighbors for help.
The reason was that he was not feeling well and couldn’t go out.
For a long time, apart from a few familiar neighbors, no one else knew Calista.
She thought this would be safe enough.
Just recently, a kind neighbor suddenly reminded her to be more careful because there were suddenly many strangers in the small village, asking about her whereabouts.
In the end, the neighbor showed Calista the photos he had secretly taken.
At just one glance, Calista felt a chill run down her spine!
Just because the man in the photo looked so familiar to her, every time Estelle “punished” her, this man was always the first to step forward and grab her!
He could be said to be Estelle’s lackey.
Suddenly, Calista remembered something Estelle had said to her a long time ago.
“Calista, don’t think you’re safe just because you’re pregnant. The day you. give birth will be your death sentence!”
She knew Estelle would do it, but she didn’t expect Estelle to act so quickly!

Chapter 18
She had just escaped when Estelle’s men came chasing after her!
In order to stay alive, Calista locked the door tightly these days, and even in the end, she hid in the basement.
These days she was scared and worried, having nightmares day after day.
In her dreams, she was captured and brought back by Estelle countless times, watching helplessly as she tortured herself in various ways, either by cutting off her limbs or by digging out her heart and liver.
Even in the end, she dreamed that Estelle had opened her own belly and forcibly dug out the child inside her.
No matter which dream it was, Eric always watched coldly from the sidelines!
After a long period of nightmares, Calista quickly lost a lot of weight and her face had no color at all.
She didn’t know how much longer she would have to live like this.
She had thought about ending her own life directly, but every time she picked up the knife, she remembered her father lying on the sickbed, holding her hand tightly, and his struggling words urging her to live on.
Thinking of her father again, Calista once again put down the knife.
Now Estelle has finally been caught, and most likely, the death penalty will be her final outcome.
The heavy stone that had been weighing on Calista finally fell to the ground, allowing her to breathe a sigh of relief for the time being.
