Sandy’s voice faded until it was barely a whisper. It wasn’t until the words left her mouth that she realized Lydia was probably on her way to bring Luke’s body home.
“He’s dead now, but he still needs to come home. You… you’re the one who killed him,” Lydia said, her tone icy as she turned and walked away.
Sandy clutched her shirt so tightly her knuckles turned white, chin jutting out as she let out a bitter laugh. “He should’ve died ages ago. If it wasn’t for me, he wouldn’t have lasted this long. He got lucky. I’m the one who lost a kidney for nothing.”
Even dead, Luke had lived a good life. He’d been wrapped in luxury since the day he was born, loved by his parents. She’d never had a single day like that.
Lydia and Connor caught the first flight to Country T, planning to bring Luke home afterward. As soon as the plane touched down, Lydia’s phone started ringing nonstop. It was Byron. Sandy’s case was now in his hands.
“What’s up?”
“Boss, we just found out Sandy might be involved in something else. She denies everything, and we don’t have real proof yet.”
Lydia frowned. “What case?”
“It’s a little messy. The victim’s name is Soren—he was Sandy’s ex-fiancé.”
Lydia’s eyes widened. “Soren?”
“Yeah. Did you know him?”
She nodded. “How did he die?”
“Officially, it’s a car accident, but we always thought someone else was involved. Trouble is, there’s no evidence. The crash happened in a blind spot, and the car exploded, so there’s nothing to go on.”

thank u!...
Olha a história bem boa só algumas coisas são chatas ( nesse tipo de história sempre troca as filhas pela a da empregada ou então pegam uma menina pra criar) pelo menos eles tratam a filha bem só enche o saco que até agora a Lucinda tá lá enchendo ! Fora isso tá bom Connor é um fofo a família dela a ama muito só Lucinda pra abaixar o nível do livro já era pra ter resolvido isso e fazer ela pagar mais tudo bem li um livro chinês que era parecido só algumas coisas diferentes ,ais mesma coisa tipo ela salvou o Connor no início lá ela salvava o avô dele , no chinês ela não tinha um irmão mais novo com os pais adotivos , a mãe dela tinha 2 irmãos e todos os avós estavam vivos mais história quase igual e tem coisas tipo o triângulo que lá TB tinha até a Lucinda que no chines TB ficou o livro todo aprontando só no final a família descobria e se livrava dela aí ela ia morar com o cara que ela usa pra disfarçar que não gosta do Connor aí depois ainda quase matava a irmã dele e a mãe dele que ele via como ela era...

Every chapter is missing a sentence from the end of every chapter. It’s frustrating to try guess what’s missing or said...
