Eliza squinted her eyes and then burst into tears, spilling the beans about everything Vivienne had done in the Boyd Mansion.

From the first day she arrived, insisting the whole family disinfect and kneel to welcome her, to the gruesome act of cutting off Wendy's hand, Eliza left no stone unturned in her vivid recount. The crowd was in disbelief. How could Vivienne, just a young girl, be so extreme?

Eliza then produced a video as evidence. "This is from our home security system. Every single thing she did is captured here. I'm not lying!"

The video played out before their eyes, and gasps of shock were heard, especially during the chilling moment Vivienne severed Wendy's hand.

Vivienne did not deny her actions and calmly admitted, "Yes, I did those things."

"Vivienne, if you hadn't done all this, how could my mother have passed away so suddenly? It's all because of you. You better give me the Boyd family signet ring back now. It belongs to our family, and you don't deserve to wear it!"

Eliza's accusations, backed by the video, filled everyone with righteous indignation towards Vivienne.

Watching Eliza's tear-stained face, Vivienne just smiled. "Why don't we watch the rest of the video?"

Eliza was puzzled. The footage of the hand-cutting had already played.

What more could there be?

The crowd turned their attention back to the screen only to see Vivienne reattach Wendy's hand, followed by the Boyd family members beating her on the ground. Then, the video showed Eliza smothering her mother to death with a pillow!

Eliza stumbled backward in shock.

Impossible. She had deleted that part of the video and even destroyed the hard drive.

How could it still exist?

The room fell silent.
