Arthur pulled out his phone to show Raelynn the horrific pictures of Natasya’s eye and bodily injuries and said, “Look at your daughter who is as vicious and shameless as you. Do you think this is retribution?”
“Oh my! Natasya!” Raelyn wailed in shock as soon as she saw the pictures.
“How can Hardy be so vicious? How can he do this to her?”
“How can he? That’s such a ridiculous question! Did you forget what you did to him? Didn’t your family plan to control him with the vermin? It backfired, and Natasya was punished!” Arthur sneered without any sympathy.
“Backfired? What do you mean?”
“Don’t you know? Haha, let me tell you, Natasya managed to control Hardy and have her way with him, right? Well, the only way to cure the effects of the blood vermin is to use the blood from her heart, so Hardy would definitely not hesitate to target her in order to get rid of the effects.”
Raelyn sobbed, “He’s too cruel! Why didn’t you call the police?”
“Of course I did. Otherwise, where do you think this photo is from? It was taken by the police.”
“So she is still alive? How is she doing now?” “She’s alive right now, but I don’t know how many days she has left. I think she will probably die before you though. I guess you’ll have to experience the pain of attending your own child’s funeral!”
“Dad! Are you listening to what Arthur is saying? It’s too vicious! I am your daughter, and I know have done something wrong, but my punishment shouldn’t be this bad. Natasya is not born vicious, and this was all Devon’s influence! I beg you to save her on my behalf!”
“You? My daughter?” Gavin sneered. He was so bored of watching her act, and he did not have much energy left to deal with her, so he said, “Let David Gibson come in!”
The name “David Gibson” was like thunder in Raelyn’s ears. This was definitely not the person she knew. It must have been a coincidence!
But if he was not the person she was thinking of, why would Gavin let him in?
Was her secret exposed? The mere thought of it distracted her from crying as she stared at the door in anticipation.
A moment later, David entered the room with a limping foot.
Upon seeing Raelyn, he smiled and said, “My dear daughter, I’m here to accept you as my child!”
“You… what are you talking about? Who is your daughter?” Raelyn still kept up her act.
David sneered, “Gavin has already arranged a DNA test between us, and I told you about what Laila had done! I can’t believe you’re still not admitting to the truth!”
Raelyn immediately gave up on all hopes. She finally understood why Gavin was so calm and indifferent to her act, and she said dryly, “I… Dad… I am not…”
David interrupted immediately, “My dear, are you calling for me?”
He walked to her side and looked at her with a smile, “This is your first time calling me dad, right? I should be touched, but I get so scared when I hear your voice. You and your bitch of a mother are as vicious as each other! You killed her for your own goals, and even targeted me! Did you think that I would stay in prison till I die? Karma is real, and I came out alive. Your good days are over!”
“No… Dad, listen to my explanation! It’s not my fault! It’s all Laila’s fault. I don’t care about the family that birthed me since they never spent any time with me. You took care of me for so many years, and I only consider you as my true father!”
“That’s enough, I know that you have never considered me as your true father. If you had a sense of righteousness, you would have treated my family even better after finding out the truth of your family. Instead, you viciously plotted against them. I can’t believe how shameless you are by saying that you only care about the people who spent time with you! You don’t have any right to say that. Did you think that I would fall for your lies again?”Gavin interrupted her in disgust.
Arthur also chimed in, “Yes, the Saunders family is full of kind people. Even if you are not a daughter of the Saunders family, you were not at fault for what happened in the past. If you behaved well after you found out the truth, Gavin would never have treated you badly. However, you were born evil, and you were vicious enough to kill your biological mother! What else are you capable of? Raelyn, your ruthless days are over, and you will get punishment for all the bad things you have done!”
Looking at Raelyn’s change in facial expression, Gavin sneered, “You killed so many people, yet you never thought that this day would come? Listen, you will pay for all you’ve done with your life! Just wait for the law to punish you! Now, we’ll take our leave.”
After saying this, he turned around and walked out as Arthur followed behind him. Raelyn shouted desperately, “No! I won’t fail! How can I? God, you are too unfair!”
Raelyn cried as she was unwilling to let things end this way. In another ward, Paisley woke up and saw two policemen sitting upright in her room.
The pain in her wrists and stomach immediately reminded her of what happened. When she saw the police, she immediately assumed that they were here to interrogate her on the situation, so she said weakly, “Police! I want to make a report! I have been violently abused!”
Seeing that Paisley wanted to make a report as soon as she woke up, the two policemen opened their notebooks to start recording the details, “What injuries have you suffered?”
Paisley told them about her search for Valeria, “The Howard family’s bodyguards are lawless, and they physically harassed me. I hope the police can get justice for me!”
The police wrote in their books for a little while before putting down their pens, “We have recorded your experience, and we will investigate everything you said and give you an explanation. But before that, we have a few questions to ask you. When you went to visit Valeria, did you use any violence against her?” “No!” Paisley denied immediately. “I am a law-abiding citizen who would never do such things.”
“Well said, I hope you are consistent with your words and actions! Now, we want to ask about some doubts we have.” The police continued to ask, “First, Ms. Anthony, you did go to Westburn Road today, right?”
Westburn Road was where the Howard family’s old estate was located, so she nodded immediately, “Yes, I went there at 9 a. m.”
“And you don’t deny that you went to see a pregnant woman at nine o’clock, right?”
Valeria was pregnant, so of course, she was a pregnant woman. Paisley nodded without much thought, “Yes, she was pregnant!”
“Then everything is correct! Ms. Anthony, we received a report from a pregnant woman’s family saying that you had physically harmed her and caused her to miscarry and bleed a lot. Now, she is in the hospital for an emergency operation. What do you think about this?”
