The clanging sound of something falling onto the ground then followed.
Madeline, who suddenly had a thought, immediately turned around and looked back, and then she saw bright red blood dripping down from Hannah’s left wrist and the blood-stained fruit knife which had already fallen to the ground.
In barely a moment, Hannah’s face turned pale. She gritted her teeth and glared hatefully at Madeline. “ Eveline, if I die, you’re the murderer.”
After gritting her teeth and saying these words, her body gradually fell limp to the ground.
With Hannah’s life at stake, Madeline did not care about Hannah’s unreasonable and savage behavior, and she strode forward and held Hannah instead.
However, Hannah broke away from Madeline.
“I don’t need your help, Eveline. Stop being so hypocritical. You just want me to die!”
Hannah pulled Madeline’s sleeve with all her strength.
“Everyone, look. This woman, Eveline Montgomery, is the one who forced me to my death! It’s all because I had a one-night stand with her husband.”
“Gosh…”
Many passersby who did not know the truth were speechless when they heard Hannah’s words.
“Is she telling the truth?”
“How is it possible? Mr. Whitman loves Ms. Montgomery so much. How could he be a womanizer?”
“ If it weren’t true, why would the woman slit her wrist to kill herself in front of everyone? The cost of this slander is too huge. She might even die because of this.”
Upon hearing the doubts being voiced out around her, Hannah lifted the corners of her lips secretly.
She knew she was halfway there with her act.
She still wanted to say something to add fuel to the fire, but the blood loss caused her to slowly slip out of consciousness.
