When the cold metal touched Yara’s neck, her pupils constricted, and the cup in her hand fell to the ground.
“What… What are you doing?”
Viola pressed the knife harder against her neck. “Return the money to Yvvy.”
“I’ve given all the money to Lawrence, so I don’t have it anymore. Put the knife down now, or I’ll get nasty with you.” Even Yara’s voice was trembling when she spoke, so Viola wasn’t scared of her at all. “How are you going to get nasty? What can you possibly do to me when you can’t even lift a finger now?”
Yara’s neck hurt, and it felt like it was bleeding. “Calm down. You want money, right? I can give it to you.”
As expected, when death was near, no one could act mightier than anyone else. Viola knew Yara would be afraid of death, but she didn’t want her to die that day.
Suddenly, they heard Terrence’s voice from the other side of the door. “Mom, why did you close the door? There’s something I need to talk to you about.”
Viola pretended to be anxious. “I’m going to kill you to get revenge for Yvvy.”
Yara was terrified, and she hurriedly grabbed her dagger. At that moment, Viola grabbed Yara’s hand and pointed the knife at herself. Then, she stabbed her own body.
“Ah!” Yara screamed and saw her hand was covered in fresh blood. However, she wasn’t in pain at all. That was because Viola only grabbed Yara’s hand and targeted her own stomach with the knife. “You…” Yara was speechless, and she hurriedly let go.
Viola fell to the ground with a loud thud. Before she lost consciousness, she mumbled, “I know I can never offend rich and powerful people like you. But there’s one thing I can do, and that’s make you live in anxiety using my life…” She knew she could never hurt Yara when she was so weak. So, she came here to use her life to send Yara to jail.
“You’re crazy! Crazy!”
When Viola spoke again, blood was starting to come out of her mouth. “When I came, I already told someone to call the police.”
The knocking on the door became more anxious.
“Mom, what are you doing? There’s a lot of police outside. Open the door, Mom!”
Terrence was anxious. He didn’t understand why the police were there. He wondered if Yvette had already found evidence of him and Yara transferring the assets away.

Meanwhile, Yara’s hands wouldn’t stop trembling inside the house.
“You… You’re out of your mind!’
Yara was tearing up. She had finally gotten to this point in her life, and she didn’t want to go to jail. She couldn’t understand why Viola would want to end her own life just o mess with her life.

Yara hurriedly wiped the blood away from her hands, wanting to cover the evidence. However, the door broke open with a loud bang.
When she saw the huge crowd of people outside, she knew she was done for. Not only that, but she was set up by the nanny she had hired before. As Viola lay on the cold, hard ground, she kept thinking about what Gideon told her in private yesterday.
“Ms. Xenos, when I was checking your body earlier, I noticed that your lungs are at their limits. You might have less than two weeks to live.”
Back then, she told Gideon, “Can you please not tell my daughter about it first? I want to tell her myself.”
Gideon agreed to it and prescribed her a lot of painkillers, hoping that she could feel better before she passed on.
Viola finally realized that it wouldn’t
hurt when a person was about to die. In fact, she felt nothing at aft She just couldn’t bear to leave the people she cared about the most.
When Yvette heard the news and rushed to the hospital, Viola was barely hanging on. The doctors had already removed all the medical equipment from her body.
Yvette kneeled next to Viola’s bed and helped her thin hands. “Viola…”
When Viola heard Yvette’s voice, she tried her best to open her eyes. “Yvvy…” When she spoke, she had a hard time breathing.
