Love in Prime Years

Chapter 8 Murderer

“Ah!”

Lillian burst out crying so miserable as if someone was going to kill her. She held her face firmly,

however, no matter how great strength she used, the pain only increased instead of decreasing.

Slap! Lawrence came in and slapped on Amelia’s face, tilting her head. Despite blood was running wild

from the corner of her mouth, Amelia could only feel funny instead of painful.

My beloved man was blind!

“My face!” Lillian’s face swelled up, looking extremely terrible. Lillian was gritting her teeth due to the

great pain, “Lawrence, it hurts, it hurts so much…I can’t open my eyes! Am I going blind?”

“Lillian, I won’t let anything happen to you!” Lawrence softly scooped Amelia up in his arms and went

directly to the doctor. He suddenly turned around when he was near the door. He looked at Amelia in a

dominant manner and said to her word by word:

“Amelia, you’d better prey nothing will happen to Lillian; otherwise, I will make you suffer!”

“Well!” Amelia laughed at herself in a mocking way. Both of her children were going to die, her little

baby in her belly, as well as Leigh. She was already suffering and wanted to see how Lawrence would

make her undergo more pain!

It was lucky that the ribs soup cooled in the pot and wasn’t boiling; hence, Lillian wasn’t disfigured, nor

going blind.

However, she looked terrible and pitiful because she was punched by Amelia and was scalded.

Dorothy hurriedly arrived at the hospital after hearing what happened to Lillian without even waiting for

Dougie.

She heard someone was talking before she went to Lillian’s ward.

The door was half-open, leaving only a narrow crack in between. She could clearly see from the crack

that Megan, Amelia’s birth mother, was holding Lillian’s hand tightly and kept on crying.

“Lillian, how could we survive if something severe really happens to you?”

“Mom, don’t worry about me. Lawrence will protect me and he won’t let Amelia go easily!”

Megan dried up her tears and continued, “That bitch went too far. I also won’t let her go easily! How

dare she do such a thing to my dear daughter?”

Dorothy hesitated before getting in after hearing Megan’s words.

She was a mother and knew well how a mother loved her own daughter. She couldn’t imagine there

was such a kind of mother who would call her own child a bitch!

She felt something was wrong subconsciously and then heard Megan said, “Lillian, what could we do if

your real identity is found by others?”

Lillian showed a confident look and answered, “Don’t worry, mom. I heard from the doctor that she has

only a month left. Once that bitch dies, no one will know she is the real daughter of the Palmer family!”

“Really? That bitch is going to die?” Megan couldn’t hide her joy, “She should die a long time ago!”

Bang! Dorothy’s bag fell on the ground and caused a loud noise. She had never expected she would

overhear such a big secret. It meant that Amelia was her real daughter instead of Lillian!

Both Megan and Lillian looked to her direction after hearing the noise, and they were surprised when

they saw the person was Dorothy.

“Mother…”

Dorothy couldn’t help trembling because she was too shocked. She opened the door and got in,

“Lillian, are you telling the truth?”

Lillian tried to ease her emotion and replied, “Mom, what truth? I don’t know what you’re talking about!”

“Lillian, is it true you are not my daughter? Your sister is, right?” Dorothy stared at Megan and asked,

“Why are you lying to me?”

Lillian suddenly calmed down after making sure that Dorothy found out everything.

She looked through the ward coldly. The biggest advantage of a VIP ward was that it was quiet. And

Lawrence had booked this whole floor in order to ensure her safety and comfort. Hence, nobody would

find out even somebody died in this floor.

Lillian left the bed and answered with a weird gentleness, “Mom, I am your real daughter! How could I Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

lie to you? Mom, why don’t you believe in your own daughter?”

Seeing Lillian was coming close to her, Dorothy found something was wrong. She turned around and

wanted to run; however, Megan had already locked the door.

Dorothy’s wrist was hurt before and it was hard for her to fight against Lillian, who held her tightly and

grabbed her head to knock on the wall.

Lillian took out a knife, “Mom, may all of the secrets bury with you underground! Well, remember, I am

not the murderer, Amelia is!”

Then Lillian used all of her strength to stab into Dorothy’s chest again and again.

Megan, on the other hand, covered her mouth tightly and made her impossible to call for help.

Dorothy could only close her eyes in despair.

Lillian finally stopped after stabbing on Dorothy for three or four times.

It was not her first time to kill someone. However, her hand couldn’t stop trembling because she had

called her mom for so many years.

She reached out her hands when trembling to find whether Dorothy was breathing, “Mom, it seems that

she is out of breath! Mom, you must send Amelia here!”
