Brother-in-Law Fakes Death to Escape Debt, Resulting in My Sister’s Death
Chapter 5
Then the medical university staff was about to uncover the white cloth from Griffin’s body and start handling the remains.
I saw Wayne and Cecilia becoming increasingly anxious but unable to think of a reasonable solution.
Bianca’s mother-in-law, too, was sweating nervously. Previously, she would force others into submission with tantrums and stubbornness, but now, with so many cameras around, she couldn’t bear to do it again.
Her expressions were varied, yet there was no sign of sorrow. Had I guessed it?
It seemed that apart from Bianca, who was unaware, everyone else knew about Griffin’s fake death and was helping him with this farce.
It meant that Bianca was the only victim in the show.
And she knew nothing about it.
Regardless of whether it was the previous life or this one, Bianca remained immersed in her grief over Griffin’s death.
I helped Bianca to a nearby bench and then watched the livestream by the ponytailed junior. I was shocked to see that eighty thousand people were watching the drama of Griffin’s body donation.
Filling in anger, I immediately took out my phone and called the president of the medical university and the director of the hospital.
After all, such an opportunity for positive publicity and self-promotion was something no high-ranking official would want to miss.
Sure enough, the president and the director soon arrived, wanting to witness the significant moment of Griffin’s body donation.
At this point, the number of viewers in the livestream had soared to 120 thousand, with the comments scrolling quickly.
They commented: [It’s said that Mr. Whitney is great, but I think Mr. Whitney’s wife is even greater. Even though she’s suffering tremendously, she still endures the grief to fulfill Mr. Whitney’s wish.]
[That’s right. Mr. Whitney’s wife looks like she’s about to faint from crying. I really want to give her a hug.]
[Why does it seem like only Mr. Whitney’s wife is sad? The other family members don’t seem to be grieving much.]
[It’s not that they’re not grieving, but they might not want to donate his body. After all, the elders might find it hard to accept.]
[Even so, I still want to express how impressive Mr. Whitney and his family’s spirit of dedication is!]
...
I thought of Griffin’s previous life. When he had a mistress and got her pregnant, he could have gone through the normal process of divorcing Bianca.
However, to maintain his image as a good husband and to keep his property from being divided, he disregarded Bianca’s feelings and forged a fake death that was completely beneficial to him.
While he enjoyed himself with his mistress and illegitimate child, my poor Bianca was left to die and be exploited. Even I, as his sister-in-law, wasn’t spared.
Griffin, who seemed virtuous, was a scoundrel.
Since Griffin cared so much about his image, I decided to let him experience what it was like for his persona to collapse in front of hundreds of thousands of viewers.
Just as the staff member from the medical university was about to uncover the white cloth, Cecilia suddenly stepped forward.
She blocked Griffin’s body, shouting.
"I won’t allow you to take Griffin’s body away!"
The staff looked puzzled.
"May I ask who you are?"
I snorted coldly.
"Cecilia, are you so overwhelmed with grief that your mind isn’t sober? You won’t allow it? May I ask what right you have to forbid this?"
I turned to the staff and said.
"Bianca has already signed the donation agreement. Please proceed."
The staff felt embarrassed, still stopping.
Cecilia, with red eyes, shouted.
"I’m Griffin’s good friend. We grew up together and are closer than a married couple!"
What a bold statement! It made me laugh in anger.
"No matter how close you are, you don’t have legal standing. I advise you to stop interfering with Mr. Whitney’s body donation at this important moment. Hundreds of thousands of netizens are watching. Bianca has already signed it. If you continue to cause trouble, you’ll be lambasted by the netizens even if Bianca doesn’t say anything!"
Sure enough, the comments in the livestream were filled with criticism of Cecilia for meddling. Seeing these comments, Cecilia’s face darkened.
I sighed and apologized to the staff.
"I’m sorry about the earlier situation. Bianca has already signed the agreement, so please proceed quickly. Otherwise, the effectiveness of preparing the body donor will diminish over time."
The staff agreed and prepared to uncover Griffin’s body.
At that moment, several live-streaming phones were also pointed at the white cloth.
However, the next moment, something that shocked hundreds of thousands of viewers happened.
When the staff uncovered the white cloth, Griffin suddenly sat up from the bed.
The junior student who was closest to the scene dropped her phone in shock.
"He’s alive!"
