Lucinda felt like her mind had just exploded.
As she scrolled, things only grew worse. There were photos of girls, their eyes covered and limbs tied. Close-ups of little bags filled with white powder. Another photo showed a table splattered with blood, the kind you’d only see in nightmares. Every image seemed to punch her straight in the gut, leaving her shaken and breathless.
Her stomach twisted so hard she nearly threw up.
Her hands shook as she tried to exit the group chat, but in her panic, she opened another conversation by mistake. This one was between Grace and someone called “Fang.”
Fang: [There’s a problem with the latest shipment. The buyer’s not happy. Handle it fast.]
Grace: [Relax. I’ve already sent someone to fix it.]
Fang: [Hurry up with the organs, too. The client keeps pushing.]
Grace: [I know. I’m looking for the right candidate. Things are tense right now, not easy.]
Lucinda’s heart pounded so hard she thought it might burst through her ribs. Sweat soaked her back.
She couldn’t believe it. The Grace who always cared for her, who seemed gentle and loving, was involved in all this. The ten billion in assets was all dirty money.
She flung her phone onto the bed, then hugged her knees, curling into the corner as if she could make herself disappear.
Those pictures wouldn’t leave her mind. The empty eyes of those girls, the families destroyed by drugs, and the bodies lying on those tables after their organs had been taken... She felt like she couldn’t breathe, like she was somehow tangled up in all this evil herself.
Time passed before her panic slowly faded.

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...
