Fanny pondered for a moment, and thought of Diana. After that, she headed to Fulcher Manor. For some reason, she was sure that Diana would help her.
To her dismay, she found out that Diana hadn’t returned home for many days. She hurriedly pulled her hat low to cover her face, and turned to leave.
The world was so huge, yet she found herself wandering around aimlessly, unable to find a place where she could settle down and feel safe.
The glory of what felt like her previous life had been smashed to smithereens by her very own hands.
If she had not fallen in love with Oliver…
However, there are no “ifs” in real life.
If she had rejected Kenneth Channing back when he wanted to adopt her…
Fanny felt increasingly miserable the more she thought about it. Her guilt toward her parents intensified.
She didn’t want to stay like this any longer. She knew she had to face the days ahead with courage.
Rumors abound online. She had to seize this moment of chaos to release the recording of what Kenneth Channing’s words. The resulting furor would give her the opportunity to relaunch an investigation into what happened in the past.
Even if all the witnesses from the incident back then had died, even if justice was served a tad too late… She didn’t want to let the Channing family go so easily.
Exposing the recording to the public was a necessary move.
As for Oliver…
Fanny chuckled.
She would leave an accessory to evil to his own devices. She only hoped her path would never cross with the Channing family from here on.
