“Then she heard the room suddenly go silent, and then I saw it with my own eyes…”
Justin couldn’t continue speaking. His chest heaved violently, his eyes were bloodshot, and his hands
were trembling uncontrobly. Be could feel the cold sweat on his palms.
Justin could vividly recall the tragic scene of his mother falling from
the building in front of him.
It was the first time he realized that when a person fell from a height and crashed into the ground, the
sound they made was so muffled and heavy. He could even distinctly hear the brittle sound of bones
shattering.
Justin only had a glimpse of the scene, but the pain and trauma from that nce would haunt him for a
lifetime, almost crushing him time and time again.
“Don’t say it anymore, Justin. Please don’t continue…”
Be embraced him as tightly as possible, wishing that she could
take away his pain. Although Justin hadn’t cried yet, she couldn’t help
but shed tears, soaking his white shirt.
“It’s okay. Although my heart is filled with hatred, it hasn’t clouded my judgment, nor has it caused me
to copse.”
Justin’s eyes cleared up, bing gentle. His rough fingertips wiped away the tears on Be’s
cheeks. “The main reason is because you’re
by my side. Be, you don’t know how important you are to me.
You’ve given me immense courage, which prevented me from sinking
into despair.”
At this moment, Axel and Ralph finally understood what Asher meant
by Be being Justin’s lifeline.
When the emotions of the young couple had calmed down a bit,
Ralph frowned and asked, “The maid heard the argument in the room
disappear, and then you heard the sound of Mrs. Salvador falling
from the building, almost simultaneously. Can this indirectly prove
that Mrs. Salvador’s fall is rted to Shannon? After all, the only one
present at the time was Shannon.”
“You just said that Mrs. Salvador’s rtionship with Chairman
Salvador had improved at that time, and she showed unusual anger
when she discovered that Shannon had switched her medication.
None of this seems like behavior indicating suicidal intentions.”
Axel also joined in the analysis. “Although there’s no concrete
evidence, perhaps the truth is as we suspected. It was likely that
Shannon pushed Mrs. Salvador down.”
“The maid said that after my mother fell, Shannon hurriedly ran the room, coincidentally colliding into
the maid who had been
eavesdropping. At that time, Shannon threatened the maid not to a word and gave her arge sum
of hush money, letting her leave t
Salvador family forever. The maid said it wasn’t about the money but
because she was afraid of Shannon taking revenge, so she chose to
take the money and remain silent.” Justin held Be in his arms,
gentlyforting her.
Ralph reminded him sternly. “This is a crucial witness. You must
protect her.”
Axel’s eyes zed with fury. “At present, we need to establish the charge of Shannon’s drug abuse and
keep her detained without release. Then, we must quickly gather evidence to prosecute Shannon
for intentional murder!”
It was only now that Be understood why Justin didn’t arrest Shannon on charges of inciting murder or
other crimes.

Because there was only one chance, and it had to be used precisely. It couldn’t be taken lightly, and
they couldn’t act hastily!
Be’s eyes sparkled with curiosity. “Justin, you mentioned… There’s physical evidence?”
Justin’s gaze deepened, his big hand hooked her waist, and he leaned in to whisper in her ear, “Later,
when we’re alone, I’ll tell you slowly.”

Taylor and Yvonne stood outside a basement door. Gruesome
screams reminiscent of ughtering pigs could be heard from the
other side.
Taylor felt physically sick from the sounds, but Yvonne remained posed as ever, her expression
indifferent.
Taylor remarked. “You’re truly impressive. How could you remain indifferent and stoic at the sight of
this? Among the women I’ve met, only Ms. Thompson has such exceptional mental fortitude as yours.”
Yvonne smiled coldly. “It’s already a tragedy that I look like Be. Don’t I even deserve my own
personality?”
“I didn’t mean anything by it…” Before Taylor could finish his
sentence, the basement door opened.
Christopher emerged, his clothing soaked in blood.
