From there, he sees those people leaving their car to look for him. It seems like they haven’t noticed that Victor is now hanging at the edge of the cliff.Victor looks below, and finds that the cab has wrecked after falling to the river. He isn’t sure how deep that river is, while there is also a rocky riverbank at the bottom of that cliff, about 1 meter from the edge of the river.“What now? Should I just jump?” he mumbles with a terrified face.He takes a look at those people again. His face looks so annoyed, knowing that he really doesn’t have that much choice. After all, there’s no way he can pull himself up by using only one hand.“Fuck this!”He decides to jump into the river. He pushes himself using both legs to get away from the cliff side, so that he can fall in the middle of the river. He is lucky that the riverbed is quite deep, and he doesn’t even hit the bottom after that fall.But the current is quite strong, and he is unable to judge which direction is the surface. Jus
Vincenzo gets back to the scene where he killed those people. He stealthily observes the situation first from afar, to see whether there are other people there.After making sure there hasn’t been anyone seeing those dead bodies yet, he drags them to the woods one by one. He covers the traces of blood that are scattered on the grassy ground with a pile of pieces of bushes.He also hides one of the two cars into the cabin in the deep of the woods. He uses the other car for himself. He keeps driving until he reaches a place where his mobile phone gets a signal.When he phones already get some 5G signal, he abandons the car. He cuts one of the new clothes, and dips it into the gas tank. He then creates a trail of gas on the ground for a few meters away.He lights it with a matchstick. As the fire spreads towards the car, he just turns away while making a phone call to someone.Boom!!!“Leona! I need your help. Can you pick me up?”[Sure! Where is your location now?]Vincenzo is silent fo
But Charles just averts his attention to the other picture, the picture of one woman that Viona thinks of as her mom, the adult Rosa. But that's not what Charles thinks of that one picture. “And this one, I believe this is Lilie Emery, Victor’s mom,” continues Charles. Viona is a bit startled to learn that the teenage girl and that adult woman are two different persons. To make things even more confusing to her, that adult woman’s face looks so similar to her. But here Charles said to her that the woman named Lilie Emery is actually Victor’s mom. While the girl on the tree swing is her mom, by the name Rosa Immanuel. “So, they are not the same person?” she mumbles confusedly. Charles just nods, and then leaves his chair. “But, why would Catarina give me the Emery name?” asks Viona. “What am I to this woman named Lilie Emery. Catarina would always tell me that I resemble this woman in this picture, and told me that she is my mom. Are me and Victor siblings?” But Charles keeps wal
Viona can’t put up a word to explain it without making Charles know about everything. But then, she realizes that there’s no reason for her to hide it anymore. “Because I was the one who gave the Ricin to Catarina. I’m sorry, Charles! We did have the intention to kill you. I thought you were the one who killed my mom. We even thought about killing Victor.” “What? Why would you put the blame on Victor too? He has nothing to do with this.” “I know! But Catarina wasn’t satisfied simply by killing you. She thought that the only thing to punish you is to kill the one you love,” she explains. Charles’ lips are shaking. He willingly accepts the consequence for the hatred that he has planted in Catarina’s heart. But he never expected that her hatred would be this big and serious. Viona starts calling the maid, asking them to tell the driver to prepare a car for Charles. It’s still better to take Charles by using an ambulance. But she still thinks about that alternative in case that ambula
A few moments later, two cops arrive. They intend to take Viona for further investigation, but Viona just clears everything simply by showing them Charles’s video.She never knew that she would be the one who needs it the most. But still, she is now in a dilemma whether to tell them the real story.“A suicide?” mumbles one of the cops. He then raises one of his eyebrows toward Viona, as if he is still in doubt. “Why would he choose Ricin for a suicide? I assume that you are well aware about the characteristics of this poison. You should know how weird it is when someone deliberately chooses Ricin instead of other kind of poison.”“Why don’t you just ask the man himself later. I just happened to find him recording that video. That’s when I knew he was trying to commit suicide. More than suicide, he was trying to punish himself for something,” explains Viona.“A punishment, huh?” responds that cop with a few nods, seeming to find it a bit more reasonable for Charles to pick Ricin.Viona
As the day passes, Victor regains his ability to move his left hand. He keeps practicing by holding a peach, and tries to squeeze it. The development is quite good, but he still hasn’t gained his memory back.However, one thing that makes Pablo less worried is the notion that the hemorrhage in Victor's brain might not be too bad. Now, after treating him for three days, he is already able to leave Victor alone in that cabin when he has to go hunting.At least, there’s Husky watching over Victor while he is not around. When he comes back by bringing three forest rabbits, he finds Victor looking at a photograph on a wooden cabinet. And this is not the first time he finds Victor showing interest in that photograph.“That’s me and my bandmate,” says Pablo.It shakes Victor’s attention. “Band mate?”“Yeah, a music band. It’s a long story. I haven’t seen them for more than five years.”Somehow, Victor feels a bit familiar with that photograph. And of course, it is the same photograph of the
And so, they start swarming Judy together and shower her with so many questions.“Miss, can I have your time for a moment?”“You know that Victor William has become the suspect for the death of Jonathan Atkinson. What’s your take on this? Do you have any opinion?”“Ah, about that...” Judy is at a loss for words to reply to them.“We heard that he went abroad for a while. Do you know where he went?”“Um, that’s...”“Some people have speculated that he might be trying to get away from this case. Is there anything you can say about this?”Judy’s face becomes pale. Some of the securities and the lobby staff have been busy taking those people away. But Judy can’t just ignore everything they said.They spew everything about conspiracy theory, regarding the rumor that Victor is part of some gangsters. They even start bringing a story that Counterbrand could just be the mafia’s nest. As much as she wants to believe in Victor, she can’t just ignore all of those theories and speculations.It se
December 23rd, two days before Christmas, a minivan leaves Atkinson Pharmaceutical Company at night. The Christmas atmosphere is getting thicker, with soft snow falling from the sky. The minivan runs smoothly, accompanied by Jingle Bell Rock music as it heads out of Indianapolis. Based on the direction it takes, it heads to Gary just like always. But now, this minivan isn’t driven by the transporters to Gary to dump the waste of that vaccine project. Instead, they are ready to take that virus out, for whatever sinister intention they are going to do. ♫♫ What a bright time, it's the right time To rock the night away Jingle bell time is a swell time To go glidin' in a one-horse sleigh ♫♫ The driver looks cheerful, singing along with the song being played on, ignoring the terrible thing that he is taking with him to Gary. On the 24th, several stores have been prepared for having big sales. So many people have been lining up for quite a long. There are even a few of them who have b
