Chapter 4

Rachel said, "Don't embarrass yourself here. Look at what you are like now. Disappear in front of me now."

The messy me couldn't be compared to Raymond, who looked proud in that well-tailored suit.

Before I could open my mouth, Raymond suddenly covered his chest and fell down.

"Rachel, something's wrong with my body... I don't feel well!" he said.

Rachel looked at Raymond nervously and shouted at me, "Call Luna to come over for a bone marrow extraction now! His life is at stake. I don't have time to talk about this bullshit with you and your daughter!"

But Luna was dead!

In order to donate bone marrow to Raymond, she died alone in the hospital on her parents' 20th wedding anniversary.

"Luna is gone. Even if she is alive, don't you even care about her health when you forcefully tell her to donate bone marrow continuously in a short period of time?"

Rachel didn't even look at me and prepared to rush to the hospital with Raymond.

The nervousness in his eyes was an emotion I had never seen before.

Unable to contact Luna, she came home angrily and grabbed my arm to force me to do a bone marrow match.

She shouted, "You must have instigated that little bitch to hide. Raymond is a living person! I can't believe you actually want to kill an innocent life just because of jealousy!"

I struggled hard.

"Rachel, have you seen the bone ashes box on the table? Luna is dead. She died in your hospital to save your lover. My parents were also startled by Luna's death and died of a recurrence of heart disease. Do you even want me to die now?"

She glanced at the urn and sneered.

"When the hell did I ask Luna to donate bone marrow? I told you that the last donation was three years ago. You are addicted to lying. Come with me now. If I can't save Raymond today, I will let you pay."

My daughter's ashes were there, but Rachel still didn't believe what I said.

I struggled to shake off her grip and slapped her face.

"Open your eyes! Luna is dead and cremated right after her death..." I said.

I gathered all my strength in this slap, making her cheeks swollen. Then, veins popped out on her head.

She looked so indifferent. "Raymond said you must have bought these fake things to attract my attention, but I trusted you wouldn't do such a thing. I can't believe you let jealousy get the worst of you."

As she spoke, Rachel walked to the bone ashes box with a photo of Luna on it.

In that gray picture, she smiled like bright sunshine.

Rachel lifted it and asked, "Still acting, huh? Try it if you can after this!"

"Rachel, what are you going to do?" I stared at her with wide eyes in a panic.

Before I could get close to her, Rachel threw Luna's bone ashes to the ground.

"No!"

My heart was broken into pieces along with the place where she could temporarily rest in peace.

Gray ashes lingered around me, as if countless hands were strangling my neck and dragging me into hell.

I collapsed to the ground instantly and tried my best to put her bone ashes back.

"You acted quite convincingly. You've learned to be smarter than before to perform with a full set of plays. The props you made are quite realistic." Rachel stepped on the bone ashes on the ground.
