When the helicopter crashed in the countryside, it made the news headlines. Residents living nearby recorded the whole thing and shared it online, which caused a lot ofmotion.


    The incident was undoubtedly unfortunate. The next day, the police issued an official statement through official channels, revealing that the helicopter had been used by a wanted criminal in an attempt to escape arrest. The statement also confirmed that all six people on board had died. After this news came out, public opinion changedpletely, with many people apuding and feeling that justice had been served.


    Charles''s forensic report had also been released, confirming that he died due to asphyxiation. Additionally, based on the location of the ligature marks and signs of struggle on his body, it was evident that he was deliberately murdered.


    However, there were hundreds of inmates and hundreds of police officers in the detention center, so they could not identify anyone as the perpetrator. Or perhaps someone was secretly obstructing the progress of the investigation, hoping to ensure that the truth of this case would nevere to light.


    Various opinions have emerged online regarding James'' death.


    [Good riddance! I was wondering how to sentence him to death, but justice was served. It couldn''t be better!]


    [That monster got off too easily. He should have been thrown in prison for a few years, starved every day, beaten every day, and tortured to death-that would have been satisfying!]


    [Yeah, he died too quickly. He didn''t even get to experience real pain. Regrettable!]


    [But what''s even worse is that the victims didn''t manage to witness Charles being tried by thew! He hasn''t faced public condemnation! It''s just one more thing to feel sorry about.]


    But no one, absolutely no one, stood up for Charles unless they hadpletely lost their minds.


    The Iverson family also did not make any statements either. They were as quiet as if Charles were nothing but a stranger to them.


    The beloved son that was doted on for over twenty years was murdered. Even after his death, he was still being insulted online. As the head of the Iverson family, Lance didn''t dare say anything. He only hopec that the public would no longer focus on their family affairs.


    James'' funeral was quickly organized, and only family members came to offer their condolences. Who, with any dignity, woulde to mourn a monster who did nothing but evil?


    As time passed, there were only two days left until the first trial in the Shannon case.


    Early that morning, Be apanied Justin to visit his mother, Mary.


    In the quiet and serene cemetery, an infinite sense of destion and sadness pervaded their hearts.


    Be respectfully ced a bouquet of lilies, Mary''s favorite flower, in front of the tombstone.


    A wave of overwhelming sadness washed over her as she stood behind Justin, her eyes quietly reddening.


    Justin bent down on one knee, using a clean white handkerchief to carefully and gently wipe the marble tombstone.


    Be noticed that this part of the cemetery was the most elegant and clean, untouched by dust. It was evident that Justin had been diligently caring for this ce year after year, day after day, allowing his mother to rest in peace.


    "Mom, I''vee to see you again."


    Justin''s eyes were moist as his fingertips trembled to touch his mother''s beautiful face in the photo. "But this time it''s different, Mom. I''m not alone now. I have someone to apany me."


    He continued, "I remember when I was little, you always feared that I would be alone... Mom, you can rest assured now. I''m doing well. I have finally found my happiness."


    Justin stood up and returned to Be''s side, embracing her tightly, his lips curling up with joy. "Look, isn''t this youngdy beautiful? I think she''s so beautiful, just like you.''


    Be''s cheeks flushed with a slight


    intoxication, surpassing countless spring scenes in the mortal world. Her fair and delicate hands intertwined and kneaded, exuding a shy and reserved charm.


    It was as if Justin''s mother stood before her, alive and well.


    "Mom, let me formally introduce you. Her name is Be, my lifelong love."


    As thest tremulous word fell, Justin visibly choked up. "In this lifetime, I don''t want anything else, just her."


    "Justin..." Be murmured softly, tears gathering at hershes. "You must be happy for me even in the depths of the underworld, okay?"


    Suddenly, Be''s hair that was hanging was lifted by a gentle breeze, scattering the tears at the corner of her eyes as if someone invisible were softly touching her face. Be''s heart raced wildly, her pupils dting slightly, as she gazed unwaveringly at the beautiful woman with an affectionate smile in the ck-and-white photograph. She thought, ''Is it you? Are you silently responding to Justin? So you''ve been watching over your son from heaven all along, silently protecting and blessing him, right?''


    "Mom, we''ve looked into what


    daydet


    happened to you, and Be and I have finally pieced it together. Shannon is behind bars now, and her trial ising up in two days. We''re hoping that this will be the end of it for her. We won''t let her get you. We''ll


    y with what she did


    make sure she pays for all the pain


    you went through."


    Justin''s eyes glowed red as he tightly sped Be''s hand. "Once the verdict is out, we wille visit you to share the good news of our win with you."


    "Aunt Mary, we will win this battle. Please bless Justin."


    After they finished speaking, the young couple held hands and bowed deeply in front of Mary''s tomb.


    The moment Justin bowed, his eyes welled up with tears, and a small smile surfaced.


    After paying respects, they stayed there for a while, and Be helped to clean up the grave. As they got ready to leave, they could hear a series of footsteps from a distance.


    "Justin?"


    The voice he recognized felt like an ice-cold shock, sending shivers down Justin''s back.


    Be looked back at him, her eyes quickly narrowing as Justin''s grip on her hand tightened.Belongs to (N)?vel/Drama.Org.


    A short distance away, Gregory stood tall in a sharp and sophisticated ck suit. He was apanied by his secretary and four trusted bodyguards.
