President's Substitute Wife

Jessica leaned against the wall and looked to one side and said after thinking, “Carter Family was going bankrupt. Marlin needed working capital. If mom didn’t die, he couldn’t get the money, so he came up with the idea.”

“How do you know?”

“I overheard him talking to a doctor once. The hospital found a batch of unqualified urine tubes. One patient was infected, so the hospital wanted to return the tubes. But Marlin asked the doctor to find a catheter with bacteria and gave it to mom.”

Jessica was guilty when she said it.

There were tears in her eyes.

She looked down to wipe her tears. “Actually, I advised him at that time, but he didn’t listen to me and wanted to give me more shares. I was tempted...”

Jessica began to sob, “I’ve been sorry for all these years. I know I did it wrong...”

I looked at Jessica and hated her.

But at the same time I thought about something.

As long as I found evidence and prove that Marlin killed his mother, it may be good for me!

“What’s the doctor’s name?” I asked her.

“Let me think about it...” Jessica thought for a moment and shook her head. “I don’t remember. He was mom’s attending doctor. But I remember a few days ago it was reported that he became an associate dean.”

I spent the night in Sherry’s bedroom.

I had a dream. When I was 19, I came to Carter Family and saw Sherry for the first time.

She sat on the big sofa in the living room and smiled at me with a loving face.

She reached out and drew me close to her and touched my hand and said, “you will be my granddaughter later. You will no longer be a child without a family.”

When I woke up, the pillow towel was wet.

“Grandma.”

I sat on the bed and looked at the picture of sherry opposite the bed. She was smiling kindly.

Jessica didn’t get up until nearly 11 o’clock. I had breakfast already.
