“Mom! Mom! Mommy!” Michelle screamed in absolute terror.
Evelyn gripped Michelle’s hand with whatever fading strength she had left. “Michelle... promise me... never marry him...”
With those final, ragged words, Evelyn’s eyes rolled back, and she went completely still.
“Mom!!!!” Michelle cradled her mother’s lifeless body, letting out a soul-shattering wail of despair.
Beatrice recoiled in shock for a moment, but quickly recovered her composure.
“Michelle, your mother’s death has absolutely nothing to do with me. I didn’t even touch her. She was already practically on her deathbed.”
“Get out! Get out! Get the hell out of here!” Michelle shrieked furiously.
But seeing that Michelle was now completely alone, Beatrice’s greedy mind began to scheme once again.
“Michelle, now that your mom is gone, you don't have anyone left. Why don't you come with me? I’ll find you a great family to marry into. If you don't want the mayor's son, that’s fine. But look at you, with no one to rely on, how are you going to survive?”
“Get out! You literally just drove my mother to her grave, and you're still plotting against me? If you don't leave this second, I swear I’ll kill you!”
“Hmph!” Beatrice scoffed coldly.
She quickly waved two large men into the courtyard.
“Michelle, you’re the only one left in this family, which makes me your guardian. I suggest you come with me quietly. I’ll make sure your mother’s funeral is handled.”
Michelle stared at the two imposing men. She hadn't expected Beatrice to be so vicious as to bring hired muscle just because her family was vulnerable.
With bloodshot eyes filled with pure hatred, Michelle lunged forward, wrapping her arms around Beatrice's leg and sinking her teeth deeply into her skin.
“Ahhh! It hurts! You little psycho, how dare you bite me!”
“Help! Somebody get her off me! Pull her away!”
Beatrice shrieked wildly as the two brawny men rushed over, violently tearing Michelle away.
“God, that hurts like hell. Good thing I’m wearing thick pants, or I’d be bleeding out! You little bitch, I tried to do this the nice way, but you wouldn't listen! Drag her away!”
Thud!
Smack!
Elena materialized out of nowhere, dispatching the two large men with two swift, devastating kicks.
Terrified, Beatrice and the two thugs scrambled over themselves to escape the courtyard.
“Mom! Mom! Please wake up! Mom!” Michelle threw herself back onto Evelyn’s body.
Elena stepped closer, assessing the situation.
She checked the woman’s pulse, then closed her eyes and shook her head somberly. “She’s gone, Michelle. I’m so sorry.”
There was no pulse whatsoever. The woman was beyond saving.
Evelyn had been suffering from a severe lung disease for a long time, and without proper treatment, she had simply wasted away.
“Mom! Mom!” Michelle broke down, sobbing uncontrollably.
“Michelle, who was that woman? Why was she attacking you?” Elena asked gently.
“That was Beatrice, a distant relative. Her husband and my dad were just cousins, not even brothers. She took advantage of the fact that we had no one to defend us, trying to force me to marry the mayor's son to settle a debt!”
“How much money did you owe her?”
