Chapter6 My calm counterquestion left everyone at the scene utterly stunned .
Jacobs face paled with panic as he stammered , W What do you mean , hiring a hitman ? Youre still trying to falsely accuse us at this point ? Margaret frowned and said , Emily , we dont expect you to understand our good intentions .
But you dont have to slander us like this ! Weve been honest and decent people our whole lives .
Weve never done anything immoral .
1/13 Chapter6 + 5 Points And now , youre publicly smearing us like this ? Are you trying to push us into a corner ? George scoffed coldly , his tone full of anger .
I see you for what you really are now- youre an ungrateful wretch ! We were blind to have ever cared about you ! If you want to clear your name , go ahead , but dont drag us through the mud ! Not everyone is as heartless as you ! I believe the people here have eyes to see the truth .
They wont just take your word for it .
2/13 Chapter 6 + 5 Points Spurred on by Georges words , the hesitant crowd quickly hardened their stance .
Thats right ! Theres no proof were not going to believe a heartless woman like you .
What kind of person ignores their own child ? Nothing she says can be trusted ! She let her own son die and now shes trying to frame her husband and in laws ? Shes the one who truly deserves to die ! Even the livestream chat was flooded with accusations , calling me a liar and saying they had recorded evidence of my defamation to press charges against me .
Seeing that public opinion was completely on their side , Jacob and his parents exchanged a barely noticeable look of satisfaction .
3/13 Chapter 6 + 5 Points But at that moment , a large group of police .
officers stormed in .
We received a report of an attempted murder , one of them announced .
I stepped forward and said firmly , I made the report .
Then , I pointed at Jacob and his parents .
These three hired a hitman to run me over for the insurance payout .

I explained the full story to the police and handed over the evidence proving their crime .
Jacob and his parents , who had just been smugly enjoying their moment of triumph , suddenly looked stricken with panic .
4/13 Chapter6 + 5 Points The spectators and livestream viewers , who had been so sure of their judgment , now hesitated .
Their expressions grew complicated as they reexamined the situation .
The police officer reviewing the evidence frowned in confusion .
If your husband isnt their biological son , he asked , then why would all three of them treat you well for so many years , only to suddenly try to kill you for insurance money now ? What were they after all this time ? It wasnt just the police everyone was baffled .
If Jacob and his parents wanted me dead , 5/13 Chapter6 + 5 Points why had they waited so long ? Under the weight of everyones questioning gazes , I spoke calmly .
Because my in laws have a daughter who has been bedridden with a severe illness for years .
Recently , a treatment became available that could cure her .
But it requires an enormous amount of money .
So , they set their sights on me if they killed me , they could claim my insurance payout , save their daughter , and reunite their family .
A wave of realization swept through the crowd .
6/13 Chapter6 + 5 Points They have a biological daughter ? If thats true , then these two arent as kind as they seemed .
Yeah … They were willing to sacrifice someone elses life to save their own daughter .
Even the livestream chat exploded with shock at the unexpected twist .
Jacob and his parents stared at me , completely dumbfounded .
They never expected me to know about their secret .
After all , they had hidden their daughter well all these years .
Still , Jacob quickly composed himself and 7/13 Chapter6 + 5 Points retorted , Even if everything you said is true … What does that have to do with you refusing to save our son ? Is that your excuse for being a cruel mother ? I chuckled coldly at his audacity .
Our son ? Jacob , dont you feel guilty saying that ? You always claimed you had health issues and pushed me to undergo artificial insemination .
But in reality , what you wanted was for me to be a surrogate for you and their sick daughter , wasnt it ? 8/13 Chapter6 + 5 Points Jacobs eyes widened in feigned shock .
W What nonsense are you talking about ? I may not be their biological son , but theyve always treated me like one ! I would never do something like that ! I scoffed .
Drop the act .
That son you talk about was just a cover story .
In reality , you and their daughter grew up together as childhood sweethearts .
When she got sick , you moved into their home , living with them , taking care of her , 9/13 Chapter 6 + 5 Points staying by her side .
And me ? I was just a pawn a smokescreen to cover up your real relationship .
You only married me to use me as a tool to have children for you two , didnt you ? The entire venue fell into stunned silence once again .
The livestream chat exploded : Whoa … So thats the truth ?! These three really are scumbags ! Using someone just to have kids was bad enough , but now they even want to kill her for insurance money ? Thats beyond disgusting .
I cant believe I was defending them earlier .
10/13 Chapter6 + 5 Points This is terrifying .
Yeah , they almost turned all of us into accomplices in their scheme ! As furious glares bore into him , Jacob gritted his teeth and asked , So … you knew all of this from the start ? Is that why you deliberately let Ethan die ? I shrugged indifferently .
Thats right .
Jacob exploded with rage .
You bitch ! You let my Sophias son die on purpose! Im going to kill you ! He lunged at me in a frenzy .
But the police were faster .
They pinned him .
11/13 Chapter6 + 5 Points down on the spot .
Restrained on the ground , Jacob glared at me with pure hatred .
Emily , you heartless woman ! You knew Ethan wasnt your biological son , yet you still let him die ! You call yourself a doctor ? Youre nothing but a murderer ! Youll be cursed for life ! You deserve to die more than any of us ! I smiled serenely .
Who said Im a murderer ? As soon as I finished speaking , the boy lying on the stretcher suddenly sat up .
12/13 Chapter6 + 5 Points Completely unharmed , he got to his feet .
Wiping the fake blood off his face , he flashed a bright smile and ran over to hug me .
