Chapter 4 41: Let go.
– Do you really think there’s nothing we can do to you? Vanessa was embarrassed by his flirting. She had never seen a person so shameless, even more shameless than Mylene.
The woman raised her trembling hand and wiped the tears from her face. He’s laughing.
– Anyway, my cheap life is worthless. If you want me to compensate you, I will.
– I don’t need your life. Kiss my ass.
Sebastian’s white and thin lips parted slightly, and his voice was calm without any fluctuation of emotion.
– Sebastian.
Vanessa frowned. She was very unhappy with the way he had handled the matter.
It was too easy for this old woman!
Sebastien was impassive. It had been so many years since the incident, and he no longer cared about the truth of the past.
He had no interest in taking revenge on an old woman in his twilight years.
Roxane was calmer than Vanessa. She ignored Sebastien and turned to the woman, who had breathed a sigh of relief.
– Sebastien is nice enough to let it go. You should thank him.
She looked at Sebastien and said:
-Thank you, young master.
She got up and prepared to leave.
Roxane stood up and looked at his back.
“Wait a minute,” she said coldly.
She turned around and looked at her.
– Young Madam, do you have any other orders?
– Sebastien said he wouldn’t pursue the case, so I certainly won’t pursue it. However, I still have one more question I would like to ask!
The woman was perplexed.
– What question?
– Someone entered Lorraine’s room before she died. That person was you, wasn’t it?
Roxane’s voice was very soft, but it carried a piercing chill.
Sebastian’s lazy eyes suddenly narrowed and gave her a sharp look.
The woman panicked.
– Yes, and if it’s me?
– At the time, Mademoiselle lost her footing and fell. The police clearly investigated.
– Did the police really investigate thoroughly?
Roxane sneered and asked coldly, “Or did you lie to the police?” Otherwise, why would Lorraine suddenly come out of the window?
-How could I know!
She suddenly raised her voice, as if trying to hide something.
– I just came in to give him a glass of water. I did not do anything ! What does it have to do with me that she fell on her own? The police didn’t even say I was guilty, what do you mean? Are you trying to frame me for miss’s death?
Roxane’s expression was calm and she was unaffected by her emotions. She continued without hurrying,
– You did nothing. You only told him that Mylene would send Sebastien to the psychiatric hospital. There are abnormal people there and Sebastien won’t be able to get out after he enters.;
Lorraine cared so much about her brother, so how could she accept her mother sending her brother to a mental hospital? that’s why she wanted to run away from home and climb out the window to look for her brother…
His death was an accident, but it wasn’t a pure accident!
If she hadn’t said those words to him, Lorraine might not have died.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
The woman’s eyes widened as she looked at her in disbelief.
– No, impossible… You can’t know all that…
At that point, only her and Lorraine were in the room when she said those words. Lorraine was already dead, so how could Roxane know?
-If you don’t want people to know, then don’t!
There was no sympathy in Roxane’s black eyes, only endless coldness and disgust.
– You are the real murderer who killed Lorraine. You killed a person and lived with a clear conscience for so many years. Do you feel no guilt and no regrets?
How could the human heart be so unbearable?
The woman reacted and the smile on her face was a little distorted.
-Why should I feel guilty? I didn’t ask her to climb over the window, and I didn’t push her down! She was the one who was looking for death.
Before she could finish her sentence, Vanessa had already reached the end of her patience and slapped her hard across the face.
She used all her strength and the old lady was hit.
Vanessa reached down and grabbed his collar. Her cold voice was full of anger as she said:
– She is still so young. She could have grown up and had a good life, but you ruined her!
This pretty little girl once secretly told him that she wanted to be a police officer when she grew up and catch all the bad guys. She once said that she would protect her and would no longer allow anyone to bully her…
However, she did not survive this winter and died in the hands of these dirty people.
The woman felt a burning sensation on her face and her head was spinning. Even his mouth was filled with the taste of blood. She tried to tear his hand away with her bony hands.
Vanessa’s hand, which was gripping his collar tightly, didn’t move an inch. Her cold eyes looked like she wanted to cut her into a thousand pieces!
Sebastien, who had remained silent, finally got up and approached. He gently held her wrist, and his thin lips opened slightly. His mechanical voice resonated,
– let go.
Vanessa didn’t understand.
– Sebastien…
This old lady had caused Lorraine’s death. He wouldn’t let it go, would he?
There was no expression on Sebastian’s cold features. He silently tightened his grip on her hand, and his attitude was obvious.
Vanessa shook the woman angrily.
The woman’s body collapsed and he had to support himself with both hands to stop himself from falling to the ground like a pile of mud.
Sebastien crouched down and stared at her with his eagle eyes which were as dark as an abyss. Her thin lips parted slightly.
– I sincerely wish you a long life, a life as long as the southern mountain.
The woman was surprised. She didn’t understand what he meant.
Everyone present, except Roxane, looked at Sebastien in confusion. How could he still wish this evil old woman good luck?
– Because this is how you can see the ambitions of your children and grandchildren unfulfilled, their families broken and their families destroyed.
The cold voice seemed to come from hell.
The woman came to her senses and hurriedly hugged Sebastian’s leg as he stood up. She begged bitterly:
– I… I know I’m wrong… I really know I’m wrong… I shouldn’t have caused the young lady’s death. I will pay for it with my life… Please let my family go! Please let my family go, young master…
People were like that. If it did not concern their own interests, they would never be able to empathize with their loved ones.
Sebastian lowered his head, his cold eyes calm.
– It’s too late …
If she had only trapped him back then, he might not have affected his family today. However, she shouldn’t have touched Lorraine…
It was his twin sister. No one knew better than him how Lorraine felt when she died.
His entire body seemed to have been torn in two. He could even feel Lorraine’s pain before her death. Her whole body was in pain, so much so that she couldn’t cry.
At that point, he was in so much pain that he passed out.
The woman’s hand was like a dried branch as she gripped his pants tightly. She cried and begged,
– let them go, young master, I beg you to let them go… They are innocent…
