Chapter 702 Neither Human Nor Ghost
As soon as they stepped into the bungalow, the air was thick with the stench of medicine and rot. Helen pulled out a handkerchief and covered her nose and mouth. She passed through a doorway and saw someone sprawled on the bed, screaming hoarsely.
“Help… Help!”
Apparently, she heard someone enter, and her cries abruptly stopped. She struggled to lift her head, peering over. When she realized it was Helen, she instantly reached out toward her.
“Save me, Mom, please save me!”
Helen staggered back in shock.
The person in front of her barely looked human anymore.
Miya was still in her hospital gown, but it was soaked with blood. Her hair was a wild, tangled mess, and one of her eyes was just a mangled, bloody socket, with bloody tears streaming endlessly down her face.
She was so emaciated she looked like something caught between life and death, neither fully human nor a ghost.
Dax Stone said, “She tried to poison and hurt Thalia and Darion, so I used the exact same toxin on her. Didn’t expect it would only corrode one of her eyes. Tsk, looks like I messed up the dosage.”
‘Mom, please save me! I’m in so much pain, Mom, I’m begging you! I don’t want to stay nere anymore. I’ll go overseas, I’ll leave this place, I promise I’ll never come back. Please, just let me go…”
Miya’s voice was raspy and full of desperation, her pleas never ceasing. Her legs were useless now, because Darion had said she should experience the same pain as Keith.
Now that Keith couldn’t stand anymore, Miya, as his mother, wasn’t allowed to stand
either.
Helen’s initial shock quickly subsided. Staring at Miya, she suddenly felt that this suffering was still nowhere near enough.
“Tell me, why did you poison Keith?” Helen asked coldly.
Helen’s voice was icy as she spoke.
Miya frantically shook her head. “No, I didn’t! I never poisoned Keith! He’s my son. How could I ever do that to him? Someone’s trying to frame me!”
“It’s Thalia! That bitch must have set me up!” Miya shrieked, her voice harsh and

desperate. “Thalia poisoned Keith! She’s always hated him, ever since he took Darion’s attention away from her. She’s jealous, she hates him, so she poisoned him! Yes, it must be her!”
Dax’s face darkened. “She’s crazy.”
Helen didn’t buy a single word Miya said, and Darion would never let anyone who hurt Keith get away with it.
She said coldly, “If she’s gone crazy, there’s no need to keep her here. Just send her straight to the psych ward.”
Once Miya ended up in that place, that’s when she’d really know what it means to be stuck between life and death.
‘No!”
Miya screamed, frantically clawing at Helen, trying to grab her.
‘You can’t do this to me! I’m the hero of the Blackburn family. I gave birth to Emely’s child! Isn’t Emely your favorite? I’m his wife! You can’t treat me like this! If he finds out, he’ll make you pay!”
