Chapter 2148


    Dean’s face darkened sinisterly!


    "Mary, previously, a shocking scandal about my family was released. You must have heard of it,


    right?" Dean intimidated her. "Do you really think that I don''t dare to kill you?"


    Mary had just finished university. She had not witnessed the dangerous part of society before. How


    could she bear Dean''s cruel tactics?


    It would be a lie to say that she was not afraid.


    However, she was not afraid of what Dean would do to her. She was afraid of death. She was, after


    all, different from Ang.


    Ang had lived for a long time. She had seen everything she had wanted to see. However, Mary’s


    life was just beginning, yet it had to end already.


    "Uncle Dean, before my mom died, she talked to me for a while." Mary was silent for a while before


    saying, "She said she had already achieved what she wanted to achieve. She had no regrets in this


    life. The importance of life is not in its length, but in how well you live it. She felt that if she were to


    continue living, nothing couldpare to the greatness of the day she had received the Marshall''s


    Award."


    "Did she really say that?" Dean was a little taken aback. He felt that Ang and he were on the


    same boat, yet reality just gave him a huge p on the face. No matter what happened, he would


    not kill himself as Ang had.


    "Uncle Dean. I do not need to lie to you.


    This is what she said." Mary fished around in her pocket and retrieved a small white medicine bottle.


    "This is what she gave me.


    Dean immediately looked at it. There was no writing on the bottle. He did not know what drug was in


    it.


    "What is this?"


    "I asked this from her," Mary slowly said and opened the bottle. She took out a small white pill from


    it. "Uncle Dean, do you know why my mom adopted me?"


    Dean wanted to say, "I don''t care."


    Before he could say anything, Mary continued, "I was born color blind. When I was one, I was


    dumped in a garbage bin by my biological mother."


    Dean was speechless. "My world is colorless. There is only darkness and light. I liked the darkness


    as it was the only ce I felt safe," Mary said with a smile. "Although I’m not considered disabled,


    I''m not a normal person either. I won''t have a bright future. I am more than satisfied living up till


    now."


    Then, Mary quickly swallowed the white pill.


    Dean realized what it was. He immediately said to his assistant. "Get the pill out of her! It must be


    poison!"


    While Dean was saying that, Mary tried hard to swallow the pill down her throat.


    She smiled in satisfaction. "My mom died swallowing this pill. Even if you force the poison out of


    me, I won''t survive, because... this poison is lethal. Just a bit can kill a person."


    Then, she slowly walked to the chair and sat down. She leaned back, waiting for death to arrive.


    Dean looked in shock and fear.


    The assistant stood in front of Mary, not knowing what to do.


    "Mr. Jennings, uh..."


    Dean clenched his fists tightly. His lips quivered. This was different from what he expected!

    He thought that if Mary was not going toe clean, she would surely break down and confess


    everything once he tortured her for a day or two.


    Who would have thought that she came prepared?


    In the silent room, death loomed over her. Suddenly, the ringing of the phone broke the eerie


    atmosphere.


    "Mr. Jennings, your phone is ringing." The assistant walked over to the cab, picked up Dean''s


    phone, and passed it to him.
