Chapter 1138 Say Thank You

"So that's how it is..." Thinking about how her husband had silently endured all this pain, Libby said sadly as she nestled in his arms, "Miles, I'm sorry for letting you bear this pain alone for so long..."

With one arm around his wife and the other gently stroking their son, Miles' hazy gaze became clear, "I used to be afraid that you couldn't handle it, but I didn't expect you to be even stronger than me. You even brought back Casper's... Libby, now that you know everything, let's go to Athegate together and see Jacob's fate!"

"Okay!" Libby replied resolutely.

Two days later, after placing their son's ashes and instructing their family not to say a word about it outside the house, Miles took Libby on the road to Athegate. But before they went there, he arranged a meeting with Lucia alone because there were some things both he and his wife wanted her to hear.

Lucia arrived at the appointed place on time and saw from Libby's eyes that they had found the real Casper. Lucia was so gentle. When she sat down after seeing Libby's still swollen eyes, she softly said, "Mr. Wood, Mrs. Wood, please accept my condolences."

Miles and his wife exchanged glances before letting Libby speak first, "Ms. Webb, thank you."

Lucia raised an eyebrow slightly wondering what was going on.

"I heard everything from Miles," said a sincere-looking Libby as she looked at Lucia, "If it weren't for your help in Mexico, I wouldn't have been able to get any answers no matter how much I asked around. It was because of your help that I found my son."

Lucia couldn't bear Libby's gratitude. She lowered her eyes slightly and said with some guilt, "Actually I should apologize. If not for me interfering, maybe there would still be hope in your hearts…"

"No," said a determined looking Libby firmly, "We don't want false hope! If we're unsure of the truth, then Jacob will continue getting away with murder. Casper's soul will never rest easy."

"Mrs. Wood..." Lucia didn't know what else could be said.

To calm down his emotional wife, Miles patted her hand several times before turning back towards Lucia saying, "Ms. Webb, don't feel guilty. In fact it was me who kept holding onto those empty hopes which allowed Jacob free reign all this. Since finding Casper, we won't hold back anymore. All preparations have been made already so please keep an eye out along with Mr. Davies' movements. Don't let him escape!"

"Of course." Lucia was obliged to take a look at Libby, who was full of hatred and grief, and said, "When the time comes, our two sides will take actions together, and please not to execute him privately. I hope that he will be brought to the trial seat, so that all his sins will be exposed to the world without reservation, and he will be punished by law. "

Libby lowered her head and touched her index finger without saying a word.

"Mrs. Wood," seeing through Libby's thoughts, Lucia advised,

"I hate Jacob no less than you. He also killed my friend. It is actually very simple to kill a person. With the strength of me and Arthur, Jacob has already been torn to pieces, but this is too good for him. Executing him in private is just to make this person disappear. His crimes and mistakes will also disappear. Only by letting him accept the punishment of the law and proclaiming his crimes to the world can the souls of the dead be comforted. I hope you can understand."

Libby's brow twitched slightly as she looked up at Lucia. Seeing the same light in her eyes as in her own, she was deeply moved and finally nodded silently.

Lucia was a little relieved. To be honest, with Miles and Libby's hatred for Jacob, they would definitely execute him privately and let him suffer, even if it couldn't heal the pain.

Lucia and Libby chatted for a long time that day. Libby already liked Lucia and was filled with righteous indignation when she heard what Jacob had done to her. So, she no longer had the intention of executing Jacob privately.
