“He’s still unconscious/ Erica said indifferently. With that, Mrs. Garner stopped talking. As Erica turned
to look at her, disgust flashed through her eyes. Firsally, she drove into a seaside path surrounded by
reeds. At this sight, Mrs. Garner commented in surprise, “Your friend owns a hotel here?”
“No, we made an appointment to meet here. With so much money, she has to find a hidden place to
give it to me or it’ll be bad if someone steals it from us,” Erica explained while deliberately dialing her
phone. But in fact, there would be not answer as she called her other phone which she usually left in
her house.
“Oh no! My friend isn’t answering. Let’s go over and see if she has arrived,” Erica suggested
pretentiously.
For the sake of money, Mrs. Garner didn’t think much about her words and believed. her. Hence, they
drove all the way into a hill with the sea in the distance and a
shore full of dangerous reefs. As Erica parked her car in a thicket and dialed her friend’s phone again,
Mrs. Garner immediately looked over.

money? Why did you leave it there? Okay, I get it. I’ll take it myself then.” Once Erica finished speaking
and hung up the phone, she said, “Mrs. Garner, my friend left the money somewhere, so let’s go and
check!”
Mrs. Garner nodded and followed her all the way to the edge of the cliff. Erica pointed to a stone and
said. “My friend left the money behind that stone. Let’s go over and see whether it’s there.”
At first, Mrs. Garner was walking behind her, but Erica took out a card and suddenly threw it beside the
bush. “Oh no! Mrs. Garner, my card has been blown away. Hurry and help me pick it up. It’s actually for
you.”
When Mrs. Garner saw the card, she
instantly rushed over to pick it up
without hesitation. Then, Erica seized the opportunity and took advantage of Mrs. Garner’s moment of
distraction to cruelly shove her to the bottom of the cliff two meters away. Mrs. Garner waved her hand
in horror to grab at something, but her hands only grasped at air and she was soon swallowed by the
raging sea below.
Seeing that she had succeeded, Erica lay on the edge of the cliff and looked around for a while. Then,
she finally breathed a sigh of relief and said while clutching her chest, “You were asking for it, so don’t
blame me.”
She sat and watched for a long time, but she didn’t see Mrs. Garner’s body at all. From the looks of the
dark sea current, it was impossible for the person involved to float, let alone survive. Even if Mrs.
Garner was discovered and they interrogated Erica, she could just make up an alibi. As Mrs. Garner
had no children and lived all by herself, it was reasonable for her to jump into the sea and end her own
life out of loneliness.
As Erica drove home, she felt completely relaxed. She had finally solved one of her
biggest troubles, and no one would ever discover her parentage again. Along the way home, she acted
as though nothing happened and continued to eat, drink, and have fun. Last night, Alex told her that the
company’s situation had improved. Now, she could simply wait for the profits to come rolling in from the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmcompany and make herself a fortune with peace of mind.
In the company, Alex began to prepare for the transfer and embezzlement of the 30 million. He plarned
to fake a negotiation with a dummy company, then send the money over to that company before having
it wired back to himself. The money could then be considered as part of their company’s deficit.
On the other hand, Hayley was not enjoying herself in Alex’s apartment. She had now lost her sense of
taste and smell, which greatly inconvenienced her life.. After she got up early this morning, she went to
the mirror and admired her beauty before moving onto a detailed skin care routine. Suddenly, she felt a
few bumps on her forehead with a hint of bruises. Although it couldn’t be seen
easily, the protruding bumps on her face were a little obvious.
“What’s this?” Hayley stretched out her hand and covered her forehead, not daring to take a closer look
all of a sudden. As she previously had a flat forehead, she went for a Botox injection.
