TOT
Chapter 13
My name is Aurora Quinn, a victim who once faced heiress Evelyn Reed in court.]
Six months ago, just because my mother accidentally touched Miss Reed’s dress on a yacht, she had her limbs broken and was thrown overboard to die.]
I received a phone call from my mother that night, and since then, her heart wrenching cries have become the deepest nightmare of my life…]
In this farewell letter, Aururs detailed how she searched for evidence, how she brought the case to court, yet couldn’t receive a fair trial
Every word seemed written in blood, cutting into Grayson’s heart like blades, shredding it to pieces.
“…If this letter is published on the date I’ve scheduled, then I am no longer here.
The link at the end leads to cloud storage containing data from the hidden camera. If I managed to activate the camera hidden in my button, that should be the final evidence]
Please help me fulfill my last wish
My life was once loved, then unloved
Someone once risked everything to marry me. At our wedding he told me “Rory, heaven and earth are separate ends, but only when they exist together is the world complete, allowing me to survive.
Now I’m dead How much will you remember, Grayson, as you continue living?“||
By the time he finished reading, Grayson could no longer stand. The bloodshot in his eyes intensified as tears forced their way out, mixing with the blood from his chin and blurring the text.]
He collapsed to the finor, fingers trembling violently as he managed to click the final link
In the shaky footage, Evelyn’s triumphant face appeared as she detailed the yacht incident as if it were a joke
“You should have seen her with broken hands, her mouth gagged so she couldn’t scream. It was pitiful!“]
“Right under your feet on this very deck–her blood dripped into the sea…”
“Bus Grayson believes me. He even protected me in court
Until she grabbed Aurora’s throat, pushing her over the railing–the camera plummeting rapidly-
“NO” Grayson screamed desperately at the screen. “Rury, NO
But the video continued, with a loud “splash” as the water engulfed everything, and the screen went completely black
In that moment, Grayson broke down entirely. He curled up on the floor, feeling his body temperature rapidly dropping [
It was the sensation of near–death from overwhelming shock
Why had it come to this?]]
Why had he pushed his own wife into the abyss with his own bands?
His Rury–was she really dead?
As this thought crystallized, Grayson seemed to grasp at one last hope. Yes, there was still a chance. His Rory must not be dead, and the key to everything lay with Evelyn Reed
Grayson suddenly scrambled to his feet, staggering down the stairs, shouting: “Get the car ready! Quickly! To the hospital!”
The household staff had clearly seen the rapidly spreading post online
Several people stood with reddened eyes “Sir, the rain is too heavy.”
But Grayson had already rushed out of the mansion
The rain fell like knives against the car and against Grayson’s taut nerves.]
Evelyn was currently at the hospital. Yesterday, she had threatened to slash her wrists, and the hospital had called Grayson, saying if he didn’t appear she would refuse treatment.
Grayson knew her personality well and still reeling from the divorce, hadn’t wanted to get involved.__|
Now, he drove like a madman through the storm until finally stopping at the hospital
Racing to the private room, he was soaking wet. As his iry fingers touched the doorknob, a vase shattered inside the room!
“You useless idiots! Why do I even keep you around?!”
It was Evelyn’s hysterical scream: “I want EVERYTHING deleted from the internet–all those vicious comments! I don’t care how much it costs–shut flown the entire website if you have to! Are you deaf?!”
“Miss Reed, please calm down… This situation has developed too quickly. It’s already beyond containment.”
The Reed family’s senior lawyer reluctantly advised: “Fortunately, this massive rainstorm today and your suicide attempt yesterday have given us some space to prepare and maneuver. If you don’t want the police to take you in for questioning today, please cooperate with my work. Now, tell me the complete factual sequence of events, honestly and in detail.
Evelyn rolled her eyes impatiently, ripping off the fake bandage on her wrist “Suicide? As if I’d actually kill myself. Can’t you tell it’s fake?”
“Besides, the facts are simple. Aurora’s mother touched my dress, and I had to teach her a lesson, right? She jumped overboard trying to save herself and died. I didn’t throw her in
The lawyer frowned: “And Mrs. Hart, who posted the farewell letter? You pushed her into the sea…“[
“She’s obviously dead,” Evelyn sneered dismissively. “I watched her get swallowed by the water and disappear. That bitch–how could I have known site had a backup plan…“[]
Before she could finish, the hospital room door was kicked open
