"Mom, Delbert isn't dead, right? He can't die. We made plans for the future together. He wouldn't break his promise. Mom, tell me, Delbert isn't dead, is he?"
"Yvonne, I know you can't accept this fact, but the forensic doctor has already confirmed..." Miriam sighed heavily.
"You're all lying to me. All of you are lying to me. I don't believe it!"
Harriet directly shook off Miriam's hand, suffering a mental breakdown.
Lucas couldn't bear to see this and discreetly inserted a silver needle into Harriet's head while she wasn't paying attention.
Harriet's crying halted abruptly, and her tired eyelids struggled to stay open.
After blinking a few times, they eventually closed.
"Will this be okay?" Miriam asked with some concern.
"Don't worry, Ms. Miriam. There won't be any side effects. Yvonne will wake up after a while, and by then, she should be more lucid," Lucas assured.
Seeing that, everyone sighed helplessly, hoping she would recover soon.
No one expected such a thing to happen!
...
In a blink of an eye, Harriet woke up again, but this time she didn't cry or make a scene.
Instead, she gazed calmly at the ceiling, lost in her thoughts, making everyone hesitant to disturb her.
The atmosphere was briefly quiet until a series of footsteps interrupted it.
Arthur cautiously entered the room, intending to speak.
However, upon seeing Harriet awake, he hesitated to say a word, unsure of what to say.
After much hesitation, he finally spoke up, "The police just notified us to... claim the body."
At these words, Harriet's vacant eyes trembled slightly.
Arthur cleared his throat.
