Chapter 92
Upon seeing such a gruesome image, Grandma felt sick. However, it was a matter of my life and death, so she endured the pain and said, “Do you think showing me some random prop like this would convince me that it belonged to Ally? Amber, I’m not some ignorant teenage girl!”
While Grandma was confronting her, my gaze did not leave the screen at all. I could tell with one look that the finger belonged to me. However, I was sure the finger was not cut off on this very day.
Amber zoomed in on the finger. “Grandma, don’t you remember what your granddaughter’s finger looks like? Or perhaps your vision is failing? Let me enlarge the image for you. There’s a scar on Ally’s index finger, the one left there after she cut her index finger on a broken violin string.”
“A single scar doesn’t mean anything. Amber, you better forget about it.”
“Grandma, you’re really a stubborn one.”
Amber lowered her head and started typing something on her phone. Very soon, whoever she was communicating with sent her another photo,
However, this time, it was my side profile. It was my face, exactly the same as I had seen in the
secret chamber.
It was because she applied a layer of special oil on my body, so even if I was already dead, my face looked the same as when I was alive.
In fact, at that time, I was already dead for a few days but still showed no signs of livor mortis. It seemed as though I was just sleeping.
The photo Grandma saw was my current condition. “Ally!” she shouted.
She started to believe in Amber’s claims. “What did you do to her? Why are her eyes shut?”
Amber was nothing but calm. “I suppose she just passed out from the pain of having her finger cut off. Grandma, don’t blame me for this. If anything, blame yourself for valuing those shares more than her. You could’ve just handed them over right at the beginning.”
Grandma grabbed Amber by the collar of her shirt. “You psycho! She’s your sister! How could you cut off her finger? How do you expect her to live out her life in the future?”
Amber’s gaze was especially cold. Grandma might not understand, but I understood her intentions clearly. She wanted to say that I have no future ahead of me.
However, I still had some value at the moment, so she would not tell Grandma the truth just
yet.
