Chapter 157


    Chapter 157 Might as Well Be Dead


    At that moment, Lydia was shocked by Queenie’s gaze. With her lips trembling, she asked hesitantly,


    “Queenie, you must think this through. Murder is a huge crime. If someone found out, you’d be


    sentenced to life in prison.”


    Enraged, Queenie scolded, “Mom!” This sessfully shut Lydia’s mouth.


    Holding Lydia’s hand, Queenie pulled the corners of her mouth and said, “Weren’t you involved in the


    death of Nicole’s mother back then?”


    A trace of startle shed in Lydia’s eyes. Here I thought I had concealed this matter very well. It never


    crossed my mind that Queenie was aware of this matter!


    Dodging Queenie’s stares, Lydia blurted under her breath, “Don’t spew nonsense!”


    Tightening her hand that was holding Lydia’s, Queenie said, “Mom! You managed to murder someone


    without anyone realizing five years ago, so why can’t you do it now?”


    Staring at the malicious-looking Queenie in front of her, Lydia swallowed her saliva. She had no idea


    what to say.

    Upon looking at the hesitant look on Lydia’s face, Queenie continued by saying, “Mom, if we are to get


    rid of this matter, we have no choice but to get rid of Danie.”


    Lydia gave in. If Queenie is exposed to be involved in this issue, our lives will definitely be chaotic.


    Silencing Danie seems to be the only solution as of this moment.


    “Queenie, if you really want to do this, we must execute the n concisely. We mustn’t let others


    suspect us even the slightest,” Lydia said. Truth be told, she did note from a clean background.


    In her early days, Lydia hung around lots of pubs and clubs. She had seen and used many dirty tactics.


    Only after she got married to William and became ady of the upper ss did she stop using most of


    her dirty acts.


    Initially, Lydia did not wish for Queenie to be involved with such dirty tricks. However, they had to do it


    since things hade to this stage.


    “Don’t worry, Mom. I have my own n,” Queenie said.


    Seeing that things havee to this, I can’t be med for being ruthless! Danie, you’re the one


    seeking death, so I’ll simply grant your wish!


    …


    The public opinion circting around the Inte was getting serious within these few days. Initially,


    Nicole had cleared off her suspicion in regards to the giarism scandal. Yet, she had once again


    be the bad person since she was being deemed as the one who insisted on suing Danie and


    caused her tomit suicide.


    Nicole clicked open the interview link regarding Danie’s suicide. It wasa video, and the reporter was


    questioning Danie in the video.


    In the video, Danie looked exactly as Nicole had seen two days ago. Her face was pale, and her


    whole person looked rickety.


    The reporter’s camera was facing Danie, and it even zoomed in on Danie’s bandaged wrist. Then,


    the reporter asked, “Ms. Zimmer, why did you resort to suicide? Everyone on this Earth will make


    mistakes. You can’t simply choose death over one mistake made.”


    Listening to the question asked by the reporter, Nicole could easily guess the real motive behind this


    interview. Hah! This must be a self-directed y by Queenie and Danie!


    With her face ghastly pale, Danie nced at the camera timidly. However, she quickly retrieved her


    gaze.


    Shortly after, Danie’s eyes instantly got teary, and she even choked down her sobs in between her


    words. “As a designer, giarism is the most uneptable issue. I-I just got a little impulsive during


    that time. I was thinking I could use that chance to let everyone understand the consequences of


    giarism.”


    Danie stuttered, and she even welled up and choked in tears nearing the end of her speech.


    Upon seeing that, the reporter immediately consoled her, “Ms. Zimmer, don’t be sad. You can just say


    anything that you wish to say.”


    On the camera, Danie cried for a while before she looked up with her teary eyes. She sniffed and


    said adamantly, “I know I’m at fault in this matter, but I have no regrets. If there were a next time, I’d still


    do the same thing.”


    “It’s good that you have found a way out of this, Ms. Zimmer. Please don’t take your life for granted,”


    the reporter immediately consoled her.


    After she heard the reporter’sforting words, Danie closed her eyes, looking hopeless. Then, she


    reached out her hand, wiped her tears, and showed a pale smile. “If I couldn’t get Miss Lisa’s


    forgiveness, I might as well be dead.”


    The video yed until that part before it stopped.
