At that point, Lucille said, “Dad, maybe I’m like Darcy and Mom, or maybe not, really…. We just long for a person who truly cares and loves us, not the one who coddles us, conspires with us, blames us or hints at us. I don’t know if this disease is hereditary or not, but why did you make her a fake certificate of authenticity before she wasn’t sick, don’t tell me you’re disappointed that she’s not mentally ill?”

“I…” Caelan was speechless, he was only worried that one day she would be sick and do extreme things….

How could the Mclean Family endure such humiliation, so he believed in such a fate sinceLucille’s accident, he also did authentication for Darcy, he didn’t want to lose Darcy! But he did not expect things to be like this.

“Darcy! I’ll marry you, let’s get married!” Liam said sincerely, “I’m a man of my word, this time it’s real! I agree to marry you, if I can’t do it then you can shoot me, you can shoot me anytime and I won’t resist at all!”

Darcy’s hand was shaking as he pointed the gun at Liam, “L-Liam, are you serious?”

“Of course!” Liam nodded firmly, “If you put the gun down, I’ll marry you and make you the prettiest bride in the world!”

Liam figured that as long as she was willing to let it go, as long as he learned to love her and make her give up such an extreme lifestyle, he’d be willing to do it, “Reggie said as long as there’s love, you’ll be happy. I’m willing to spend the rest of my life to give you love and warmth, put the gun down, okay? I’m a man of my word, I can really marry you! I’ll learn to love you! May I?”

“What if I ask you to die with me?” she said.

Liam gaped as he nodded, “Then let’s die!”.

After hearing her words and watching him get serious like he’d never been before….

Darcy looked so stunning with her beautiful eyes and lips, “So, let’s go get married in heaven, shall we? Liam, I’ve been waiting for this day! But I know you don’t love me! You don’t love me!”

Liam’s heart lurched as he looked at William from the edge of his eyes, hoping William would think of a way, he was sure he wouldn’t die from the gunshot. As long as Darcy put the gun down, he would marry her, he needed William to help him control Darcy, then he would comfort her, hoping his love could bring back her lost heart.

He looked at Darcy before nodding earnestly, “Darcy, if that’s what you want, I’m willing. You can shoot.”

William understood Liam’s look, he looked for the opportunity, he needed a few seconds to go upstairs and kick away the gun she held in her hand.

That time, Darcy looked a little strange, her face paled as she breathed, she seemed different. She coughed and shook badly, “Then let’s go to heaven!”

Everyone held their breath as they looked at her, no one dared to move.

“No! Darcy, don’t hurt Liam! He’s my schoolmate who helped me so many times, don’t treat him like that!” Lucille said that anxiously as if she understood something.

However, Darcy pulled the trigger, “Liam, I love you!”

“Don’t…” Lucille lunged towards Liam as Darcy fired the gun.

The sound of the gunshot. Liam was going to jump but he didn’t expect Lucille to dive and block the bullet for him. The whole process was so fast that William ran for the stairs to the second floor, snatched the gun from Darcy within seconds. Liam merely dodged and hugged Lucille, but his back was shot.

“Ah! Lucille…” Reggie gaped as well,

“Lucille…” William hadn’t expected things to go this way, he felt Liam could dodge that bullet, but instead Lucille blocked it.

Darcy gaped as she muttered, “Sister…. I have murdered my sister…”

William snatched the gun from her, carried it downstairs and gave Lucille a startled look. Fresh blood was gushing from his back, but instead Lucille smiled, “Liam, are you… Are you all right?”

“Lucille, why are you so stupid?” Liam never thought Lucille would save him, “I could dodge it!”

“Oh my God!” cried Caelan before fainting.

Mistress Mclean yelled anxiously, “Caelan, Caelan, wake up!”

Reggie immediately shouted, “Get the car ready, where’s the driver? Get two cars ready, faster.”

The situation became chaotic because Reggie and Liam were surrounding Lucille, and he also had to give Darcy a look….

At that moment, he noticed that Darcy’s face turned purple and her breathing quickened, he felt that she was a little strange, so he immediately shouted, “Darcy? Darcy?”

A trail of white liquid suddenly ran down from the corners of Darcy’s mouth as she trembled and reached out to Lucille, “Herm…”

“Darcy…” as if something had happened, Lucille suddenly reached for Darcy as well.

Darcy sobbed lightly, “I didn’t shoot you on purpose, sister, I was wrong, I didn’t do it on purpose!”.

“Darcy…” Lucille called softly to her.

Reggie hugged Lucille as Liam stood stunned, it had all happened so suddenly….

At that moment, his heart was trembling as Lucille’s back was still bleeding.

“Let’s go to the hospital!” cried Liam anxiously.

“No… Something’s wrong with Darcy…” Lucille already predicted it before she stretched out her shaking hand.

Darcy lunged and grabbed Lucille’s hands, “Sister!”.

Lucille saw more white froth coming from the edge of Darcy’s mouth, with her purple face and breaths coming even faster, “Y-you, you really poisoned yourself, huh? Why are you so stupid?”

“Herma… I really didn’t shoot you on purpose…” Darcy breathed faster and faster.

“Go to the hospital, quick!” William lifted Darcy up, “Faster! Faster! It’s almost too late!”

Darcy’s expression looked even worse as she breathed even faster, she looked at Liam as tears streamed down her face, “Liam, I hate you!”

“Reggie…save her…” Lucille fainted after saying that.

“Lucille, hang on, we’re going to the hospital!” yelled Reggie as he lifted her up.

Before long, the cars were ready to send the Mclean Family members to the hospital. However, Darcy continued to die from the strong poison.

The bullet that went through Lucille’s back, almost went into her lungs. After the bullet was removed, Lucille’s life was saved. But when she learned that Darcy was already dead, she could not contain her feelings and cried aloud, “Darcy…”

Darcy was dead! Liam couldn’t believe she had died like that.

In the hospital corridor, Liam sat straight on the long bench, he had been smoking a lot of cigarettes, as he felt very depressed….

In his mind only the doctor’s words remained: “I’m sorry, we’ve done everything we can! He drank too much pesticide”.

William also smoked some cigarettes with him, no one expected Darcy to be poisoned and wanted to kill Liam even if he was going to die, his twisted love made people sigh.

“Go and take care of the company, I want to be alone for a while!” Liam fumed, he lowered his head while looking at his toes, he didn’t say anything for a long time.

“I’ll be back soon!” William looked at the clock and headed down the hall to make a call, “Hold the press conference, immediately, and brief all the reporters! After 15 minutes, I’ll be at the hospital.”

She then explained something else before walking over to Liam: “Liam, I’m going to the company, I’ll be back later!”.

“Just go, don’t come back!” Liam guarded Lucille outside. There was Reggie in the room, there were also Caelan and Mrs. Mclean in the room next to Lucille’s.

William looked at the door to Lucille’s room, just as Lucille blocked the bullet Darcy fired for Liam, he knew Lucille was back to her old self.

Lucille, appreciate the person in front of you!” said William in the background….

At the press conference.

The Rowland Group held a late-night press conference. William showered in the CEO’s office, changed his clothes, shaved his facial hair, apart from his bloodshot eyes caused by sleepless nights, everything else didn’t look tired.

He called Sherry, after a few beeps, Sherry accepted the call and asked, “William, where are you, it’s not resolved yet? You’re okay, aren’t you?”

Hearing Sherry’s voice from the phone, tenderness filled William’s heart, “Sherry, I’ll be ready soon, are you home now?”

“Yes!” Sherry nodded, “Both Sammy and Dan are with me, don’t worry, we’re not going out anymore, what about company?”

William wanted to tell her that Darcy had died, but stopped himself as he was about to say it, he understood that it would be better to tell her tomorrow, because it would be better to tell her such a matter face to face, “You rest first! I’ll take care of everything.”

As if Sherry stopped and felt something after hearing his voice, she hesitantly asked, “Did something happen, is it because of Darcy?”

“Okay! I’m going to give a press conference for the company, I’ll go home after I handle it! Go to sleep first!”

William wanted to hang up.

“William!” cried Sherry anxiously.

“Hm?”

“I’m sorry, I disturbed you!”

“Silly, don’t apologize to me, I’m the cause of it all!” William said that apologetically, “You’re the innocent one!”

Sherry tightened her grip, she felt heat in her heart but still said, “William, never mind, don’t make Darcy go to jail…. Anyone who gets out of jail will be corrupted, no matter what, I don’t want her to go to jail!”

William’s heart faltered, he knew his wife was so kind, so he nodded and said, “Thank you, Sherry, she won’t go to jail anymore! She won’t hurt you again either!”

Sherry didn’t understand what he meant, she just thought William had convinced Darcy, she was glad, “That’s great, now she’s convinced?”

“Yes!” William looked at the time, “Sherry, I’ll tell you the details later, Now it’s time for the conference!”

“Okay, off you go now! Bye!” she said.

“Good night, honey!” William waited for her to hang up.

But Sherry was still holding the phone without hanging up….

While on the other end, William wasn’t hanging up either, after a good while, he said softly, “Why don’t you hang up?”
