“I asked Roland, and he said he had compensated the family with a large sum of money, and everything was fine.”
“Damn it, he’s talking nonsense!” I immediately threw the cup in my hand to the ground, and shards of glass flew everywhere.
Maleah looked at me in astonishment, as if she suddenly understood something.
“Maleah, can you do me a favor? I’ll get your son out for you, how about that?”
Maleah looked at me with a gloomy expression and took a step back, but eventually nodded.
Two days later, Maleah went to the police station and reported that Roland had been involved in a hit–and–run incident.
The police only filed a case when they heard it at that time, after all, Roland had already died. Even if they hadn’t reported it for investigation at that time, they wouldn’t have known how to investigate.
However, that night there was a heavy rainstorm, and a pile of white bones washed down from the halfway up Mount Newoak.
After police confirmation, the pile of bones was identified as belonging to Kendra Nelson, a rural woman from Mount Newoak. Her family had reported her missing eight years ago, and this pile of bones is just a part of her body.
This case is significant, and the city has specifically set up an investigation team.
Later, someone went to the police department and said that eight years ago, they had seen a car hit someone on Mount Newoak on a rainy day and then leave. Despite the heavy rain, they still managed to take note of the license plate number.
The police checked the number and found out that the previous owner of the car eight years ago was Roland, an outstanding entrepreneur in the city.
Two weeks later, Roland’s parents were captured for assisting their son in escaping after causing an accident and for cruelly treating the victim’s body. They had disposed of the bodies by throwing them separately onto the mountains, into the river, and onto a garbage dump.
It has been too long since then, only the bodies on the mountain have remained.
At this point, all the truth was revealed.
And two days later, I went to the police department to collect Kendra’s ashes.
Holding the urn, I couldn’t help but burst into tears.
At that moment, a person also arrived, a woman dressed in black, and sat down beside me.
She reached out and touched the urn, and tears followed.
“Mom, the daughters avenged you.”
I looked at Kristina’s face, her lips trembling, and called out to her, “Sister.”
Kristina held me in her arms and gently stroked my back.
“Everything has passed.”
Kendra was my mother. That year, my father had a high fever and it was raining heavily outside. My mother went out to find a doctor.
Once she left, she never came back.
Dad also died in the hospital because he did not receive timely treatment.
At one point, the entire sky in my house collapsed.
After burying our father, my sister and I searched everywhere for our mother.
Finally, I heard that someone had seen a luxury car hit my mother. I went to ask, but that person said they had mistaken it, maybe it didn’t happen.
I knew that he was afraid of getting into trouble. So, he used some legal means, and my sister found out the license plate number of that car.
We searched and searched, and found Roland.
From the very beginning, I married Roland in order to investigate the truth behind my mother’s death.
So I didn’t care what kind of person he was, or how he was with other women.
After two years of hiding, in Roland’s dream talk, I finally pieced together my mother’s whereabouts.

I wanted to accuse him, but I had no evidence.
So my sister started to get in touch with Roland’s dad.
Roland deserved to die.
Even if he did not die at sea, he would have died from illness. If illness didn’t kill him, I would have sent him to prison sooner or later.
Finally, Dayton and Claire were sentenced to death, and the remaining property of the Hanson family was inherited by the children of their sister.
My sister’s child did not find a suitable kidney source until the end and died in the spring of the second year.
After hearing this news, Maleah, who hadn’t been seen for a long time, came out and bounced around.
She held the previous paternity test and kept insisting that her child was related to the Hanson family, demanding a share of the property.
Unfortunately, I was not the older sister, so I needed strength to compete with her for the inheritance.
Sister would not tolerate Maleah like that. She just said a word, and that crazy woman Maleah became quiet.
“Do you really think Roland was the one who injured your son back then? I heard he had just settled down in elementary school, why would he want to cause trouble for him?”
Maleah’s face turned pale. “It’s a rule of law society now, what are you going to do?”
“It’s not that I can’t do anything, it’s just that I can make you feel disgusted.”
“Bullying children is not a skill worth boasting about.”
“Sure, I’ll bully you,” the older sister extended her hand. “Your family doesn’t have as much money as mine, bankrupting your family would be a piece of
cake.”
Maleah now eats and lives at her mother’s house. Upon hearing this, her face turned pale.
No matter how unwilling she was, she could only obediently leave.
But I hold grudges, so I reached out to Maleah’s ex–husband who was living abroad.
Maleah divorced not because she cheated, but because her ex–husband gambled and lost all her money.
I accidentally let slip to her ex–husband that Maleah is now living at her parents‘ house, and that her parents are quite wealthy.
The next day, her ex–husband returned to his home country.
I didn’t hear much about what happened afterwards, but all I know is that Maleah and her ex–husband were both kicked out of the house.
On Qingming Festival, my sister and I went up the mountain together to pay tribute to our parents.
We buried them together, which was also Dad’s last wish.
The weather was very good that day, it didn’t rain.
We knocked our heads together, and then a gust of wind blew by.
In the wind, there was a scent of unknown wheat, which was the smell of my mother.
I thought, perhaps Dad brought the lost Mom to visit us.
