It Was You

Beth's eyes were full of disappointment. After a long time, she shook off Kevin's hand, walked to the sofa and sat down. Her voice was dry and hoarse. "I have nothing now. What's the difference between death and not death? What do you want to say, Miss Cassandra?"

She had come to the end of the road. She was not even afraid of death. What else should she be afraid of?

Cassandra looked at Beth and said, "it's said that you need a good doctor to cure your heart disease. I'm afraid that Miss Beth's heart disease has gone deep into your bones. If you want to cure it, you have to cut a layer of skin off. I wonder if Miss Beth is willing to do that."

Hearing this, Beth's face turned pale and her eyes were bloodshot. She put her hands on her knees and gripped the hospital gown tightly. Her voice was trembling. "What... What do you want to say?"

Cassandra raised her head and stared at Beth without blinking. Then she said in three words slowly, "Lucian."

Beth's pupils contracted sharply. She covered her ears with her hands and curled up on the sofa. She shook her head and said, "I don't know who you are talking about. I know nothing. Don't ask me. I know nothing... Please let me go... Please..."

In the past, she got everything by illegal means, and then she was taken away. Now she was sick and couldn't live or die. This was her retribution. She admitted it. But once that matter was exposed again, wouldn't it add insult to injury and force her to die?

"Back then, Lucian trusted you so much and wanted to support you, but you were ungrateful. You joined hands with Roger and pulled him down from the altar, and even almost destroyed him..."

Speaking of this, Cassandra's voice paused and her face darkened. Her deep eyes were like an invisible hammer, hammering Beth's nerves. But before she could finish her words, she said in a cold voice, "for so many years, you have dreamed about him at midnight. Won't your conscience hurt?"

Her last sentence was like a thunderbolt, hitting Beth's heart.
