Chapter 2

"Bang!" Our bodies suddenly hit the ground.

After my death, my soul floated in the air. Taking a glance at my body, I couldn't bear to look at it anymore.

I wondered if the police could detect the fingerprints of the culprits.

But it would be better than being burned to ashes by the fire.

Suddenly, I heard a familiar scream. It was Natalya's voice!

Natalya was holding Matthew Hawk's arm. Looking at the terrifying scene in front of her, she screamed in despair. Then she fainted.

The people around were screaming too. Natalya, who was the closest to our corpses, suffered the greatest impact.

I watched as Matthew, with a pale face, sent Natalya to the hospital. I couldn't help but feel worried. "Did Natalya faint because she saw the condition of my and Linda's bodies?"

Natalya had been physically weak since she was young, often falling ill. To take care of her, I studied medicine a bit over the years, becoming somewhat proficient in medicinal knowledge.

The last time Natalya fainted was when we caught Matthew cheating in a hotel during university. She was so angry that she stayed in the hospital for three whole days. I took three days off to take care of her.

At that time, Natalya had many complications in her body. She almost didn't make it through.

"If she knew that it was her lie this time that indirectly caused the death of me and Linda, would she regret it?"

...

I hated her having an affair recklessly, but she was not the one who had killed me and Linda anyway.

"She is someone I once deeply loved. I hope that she can quickly overcome her sadness and live a good life."

I followed the two of them to the hospital. Along the way, Natalya's cell phone kept ringing. After Matthew discovered that it was Kate calling her, he decisively turned off the cell phone.

Although I was dead, my heart ached for a moment when I saw it was Kate's call.

"Mom, I am unfilial. I failed to take care of you in your old age!"

I dared not go back to face my grieving family, so I had been staying with Natalya in the hospital.

A few days later, Natalya finally woke up. I breathed a sigh of relief.

As I was about to leave, I saw Matthew turning on Natalya's cell phone for her and calling Kate.

At the sight of the numerous calls Kate had made to her during her unconscious days, Natalya had a hint of anger on her face.

"Hello, Mom, what's the matter?"

"Natalya, come over and take a last look at Asher."

I heard Kate sobbing on the call. My heart ached.

However, Natalya shouted at Kate angrily, "Don't use such despicable tricks to make me go back to your side! Haven't I given enough money to him and Linda?"

Natalya had never respected Kate, but this was the first time she had shouted at Kate angrily.

My mother was stunned.

I was stunned too. "Didn't Natalya recognize that the two people who fell to their deaths were me and Linda?"

"Originally, it was unlucky to see two people fall to their deaths in front of me before going home! Now, you, an old lady, came to bother me. I will let Asher Shawn wait!"

After speaking, Natalya hung up the call without hesitation. Then she started coughing violently.

Matthew smiled hypocritically when comforting Natalya. Seeing this, I felt that Matthew seemed intentional.
