Brother-in-Law Fakes Death to Escape Debt, Resulting in My Sister’s Death
Chapter 3
The body donors at Southwest Medical University had been in use for over a decade. Upon hearing about the new donation, the staff arrived within half an hour.
They were excited, shook hands with Bianca, and expressed their gratitude and sorrow. But Bianca, lost in grief over her husband’s death, couldn’t pull herself together.
I had to urge her to sign the papers quickly so that the staff could place Griffin’s body into a container for preservation.
Wayne, standing beside us, was so anxious that his forehead was full of sweat. He hid in a corner of the room, making phone calls, probably trying to find a way to get help.
Seeing his anxious demeanor, I couldn’t help but curl the corners of my lips.
The staff of the university prepared the paperwork for the body transfer while trying to comfort Bianca. However, Bianca had fainted from crying several times and couldn’t hear anything.
I knew she was very sad. Today was the fifth wedding anniversary for her and Griffin. Instead of a celebration, it had turned into a day of mourning. How could she bear that?
Before coming to the hospital, Bianca had been cooking Griffin’s favorite food.
She had planned to tell him today that she was willing to accept her mother-in-love Kallie Bruce’s suggestion to try in vitro fertilization.
Despite being married for so long, she hadn’t been able to conceive a child.
As a result, Kallie had often criticized her.
But Bianca had always been in poor health, and undergoing IVF required enduring more pain than usual.
I was puzzled when I learned that Bianca was willing to try in vitro fertilization.
But Bianca smiled and said.
"Although Griffin never says it, I know he always wants a child. I don’t want to make things difficult for him."
As she spoke these words, her eyes were filled with tenderness and love.
Yet Griffin was keeping a mistress secretly and had a child outside.
He even planned the fake death scheme with his mistress, causing Bianca to deplete her family’s assets to pay off his debts and eventually suffer from depression and a car accident.
Even then, the scumbag wasn’t satisfied. He showed up at Bianca’s funeral with his mistress and child, demanding her accident compensation money.
As the medical university staff was about to uncover the white cloth covering Griffin’s body, Wayne acted quickly and grabbed the staff member’s arm.
"You can’t touch Griffin’s body!"
I looked at Wayne with confusion.
"Why? The body donation papers have already been signed by Bianca. Besides, this is Griffin’s wish. Wayne, why do you keep stopping us?"
Wayne just wiped the sweat from his forehead and stammered without being able to utter a word.
I frowned and signaled the staff to continue.
At that moment, a sharp voice came from behind.
"How dare you touch my son’s body!"
It turned out to be Bianca’s mother-in-law Kallie, and behind her was a slim and fair-skinned woman who looked somewhat familiar.
I took a closer look and recognized her as Cecilia, Griffin’s mistress and childhood sweetheart.
Upon entering the room, Cecilia immediately began to criticize Bianca.
"Bianca, how could you decide to donate Griffin’s body to the school without telling the family? Griffin valued his dignity, and he would never want his body donated. You’re making it so he can’t rest in peace even after death.
"If Wayne had not learned about this and informed us in time, Griffin’s body would have been donated without our consent. Don’t you care about how this will make the elders feel?"
As soon as Cecilia finished speaking, Kallie stepped forward and slapped Bianca.
"You bitch! I see you did this on purpose to humiliate my son after he’s dead. My son used to protect you so much. I always said you should have divorced him. Maybe Griffin was killed by you!
"My son treated you so well, and instead of being grateful, you want him to be dissected naked. How can you be so heartless to make such a decision for your husband?"
Bianca was overwhelmed with grief.
She began to tremble uncontrollably after Kallie’s words.
But Kallie still seemed unsatisfied. She tried to pull at Bianca’s hair.
And I protected Bianca quickly.
I wondered, This is so strange. Shouldn’t the mother be more grief-stricken at her own son’s death? Why does she seem so indifferent?
