Several bodyguards entered and restrained Lucy.
Sonia cradled Hayden's body, weeping bitterly. "Hayden! Hayden! I should be the one to die instead of you! I shouldn't be the one to bury my child!"
…
The Tates began preparing for Hayden's funeral.
Carly, however, was restless. She was terrified that Lucy might let something slip as she was still in Nigel's custody.
Carly went to find Nigel, who was speaking to Eren in his study.
She quickly hid outside the door and eavesdropped.
Inside, Nigel asked, "Has Lucy confessed anything?"
Eren responded in a low voice, "She's keeping her mouth shut, refusing to say anything. But the fingerprints on the knife belong to her, and the evidence against her for murder is solid."
Eren then hesitated before adding, "Sir, what exactly are you hoping to uncover?"
Nigel pressed his lips together thoughtfully. "I don't know. I just have this feeling that Lucy is hiding something. And whatever it is, it's related to Carly."
Eren was surprised. "Ms. Hampton?"
Nigel stood up and walked over to the window. "Haven't you noticed something strange about Carly? We both know how she was poisoned—she did it to herself. If I'm not mistaken, her real target was Celine."
Eren nodded. "Sir, I've served you for many years. I must say, Ms. Hampton's character leaves much to be desired. On the other hand, I've interacted with Ms. Celine—she's intelligent and straightforward."
Nigel chuckled. "Adam has a good eye for people."
Outside the door, Carly's nails dug deep into her palms in rage.
Lucy had been locked in a dark room for days. She was covered in bruises and wounds, but she didn't tell them anything.
She knew that if she talked, that would be the end of the line for her. If she remained silent, she might still have a chance to turn things around.
Just then, the door creaked open.
Upon hearing footsteps, Lucy didn't bother to lift her head. She curled up in the corner. "Don't bother asking. I won't say anything."
The person remained silent.
Lucy felt that something was off, so she slowly looked up and saw Carly standing before her.
A surge of relief and joy rushed through her.
Lucy exclaimed, "Carly, you're here! I knew you'd come! I knew you'd save me! I'm your real mother! You'd never abandon me, right?"
