Liliane opened the message and found a link inside. Clicking on it, she was directed to a website with a pure black background. Opium poppies slowly bloomed, giving off an eerie vibe. The flowers seemed to be stained red with blood.
As Liliane watched the animation on her phone, her heart pounded rapidly until it finally ended.
âMs. Anstey, do you need me to call a doctor?â the concerned caretaker asked.
Suppressing her fear, Liliane replied gently, âYes, please.â
She refrained from exploring the mysterious link further. Instead, she pondered over the identity and intentions of the sender. After all the help they had given her, she wondered what they wanted in return.
Liliane took a deep breath, looked at the content again, and hesitated before finally clicking [ Join].
Upon clicking, the website closed automatically.
Liliane tried to access the link from the message again, but her phone screen displayed [404]. It all felt too mysterious!
Later, Scott visited Liliane in the ward and found her in good spirits. Professionally, he inquired, âMs.
Anstey, do you feel any discomfort?â
Liliane shook her head and replied, âNo.â
Scott examined her and declared, âThe surgery was very successful. Congratulations.â
âThank you, doctor.â
Scott decided not to inform Liliane about the heart transplant from her father.
Liliane remained in the hospital for a few more days until she recovered. She then went to the mortuary to bid farewell to Billy. As he had signed an organ donation agreement, his organs. were transplanted to those in need.
Looking at her fatherâs peaceful face, Liliane felt sorrowful as she thought, âDad, Iâm healthy. now. You loved me so much since I was a child. I hope youâll be happy to know that Iâm healthy.
now.
âThank you for the generous wedding gift. Iâll make good use of it.
âEven though you couldnât give me my first life, you gave me a second chance.
âRest in peace, Dad.â
Liliane arranged for the funeral home to take Billyâs body away, but unexpectedly, someone stopped her.
âMr. Ansteyâs body cannot be taken away,â the investigator said.
Liliane looked at the stranger in surprise. âWhy canât I take my father away?â
âBecause there are suspicions about his cause of death,â the investigator replied.
Lilianeâs heart sank. âYou suspect my fatherâs cause of death?â
âYes, Ms. Anstey, please cooperate with our investigation.â
Liliane tried to figure out who this person could be. She speculated they might be a relative from the Anstey family. With Billy gone, the issue of asset distribution would soon arise, making her a potential suspect.
