<b>Chapter </b><b>754 </b>
<b>Sadie’s </b>death at Peter’s hands quickly made headlines, and the news of the matricide spread like wildfire.
Samuel fled Jipsburg in disgrace, quickly selling Elden Residence at a significant discount. He was desperate to escape the city before being hounded by reporters seeking for a scoop.
His whereabouts remained a mystery. Property ? 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
Skr learned about these developments from the news. The Williams family’s downfall left her with a sense of mncholy.
One evening after work, Skr received a call from a prison guard. Peter wanted to see her. The guard urged her toply with Peter’s request.
At the prison, Skr found Peter with a shaved head, his stubble now streaked with gray. His once sharp gaze was now hollow and vacant. Gone was the calcting look he used to have when he saw her.
Skr picked up the phone, fully aware that her ties to the Williams family were severed.
Peter also took the phone, his eyes locked on Skr.
“I’ve thought a lot these past few days,” Peter began. “It’s clear to me now that I was living recklessly, oblivious to the consequences of my choices. I even killed my mother with my own hands. You must be happy to see me behind bars for the rest of my life, huh?”
“I don’t harbor any personal feelings about your situation. As aw–abiding citizen, I believe that those whomit crimes should face the appropriate legal consequences,” Skr responded with calm detachment.
The fate of the Williams family left her indifferent. Had this urred before her rebirth, she might have felt satisfaction.
Peter’s face contorted in shock, followed by a sudden outburst ofughter. “Let
me grant you one final wish,” he said, his voice dripping with sarcasm.
Tregret <b>everything</b>. If <b>only you </b>had returned <b>home </b><b>and </b><b>I </b><b>had </b><b>treated </b><b>you </b>with <b>respect</b><b>, </b><b>our </b>family wouldn’t <b>have </b>fallen <b>apart</b>. I could have <b>achieved </b><b>even </b>greater prominence <b>in </b>Jipsburg.<b>” </b>
Skr raised an eyebrow and then put down the phone. She stood up and <b>left</b>.
Peter watched her nkly as she walked away, <b>still </b>holding the phone.
As the prison guard led him away, Peterughed bitterly, muttering to himself<b>, </b>“I wish this were just a dream. If only this were all just a nightmare, How could I have been so foolish? I’m so stupid.”
The guard was unperturbed; it wasmon for newly imprisoned individuals to struggle with eptance. If someone could kill their own mother and feel no remorse, they would truly be beyond redemption.
Later that evening, in the hushed darkness of their bedroom, Skr’s body still trembled slightly as her mind slowly returned to her.
In her peripheral vision, she caught sight of Joe recing the used condom with a new one. It seemed that the intense session earlier had
only whetted his appetite.
Skr’s face was flushed from the physical exertion. Sensing Joe’s renewed interest, she tried to extricate herself from the situation. “I’m going to take a shower.”
She was startled by the hoarseness in her voice, her throat sore from
earlier screams.
Joe’s eyes, dark and intense, lingered on Skr, his desire reignited by her voice. “Showerter.”
Then, he pressed his entire body down onto Skr.
Skr couldn’t escape. Joe’s energy seemed inexhaustible that night as they repeated their intimate encounters.
By the time Joe finished, Skr felt physically exhausted, as if her body were on the verge of copse. Even after a refreshing shower, she felt

“Have you been deliberately avoiding metely?” Joe’s voice was heavy with concern.
Recently, Skr’s deliberate distance had left Joe feeling confused. Today, a casual conversation with someone else revealed that Aiken might have romantic feelings for Skr.
Several people who had sought Skr’s assistance had mentioned her to Aiken, who had responded with nothing but glowing praise. This was unusual, as Aiken wasn’t known for easilyplimenting women.
It was worth noting that Aiken had been particrly helpful when Skr had gone missing.
