Marry My Ex’s Uncle After Rebirth by Agatha Barney

Chapter 154



An hour later, Matilda changed to another phone number to call Laila, but no one answered. She dialed five times and didn’t get through until the sixth Feeling exasperated, she questioned loudly, “Why aren’t you answering your phone? Do you want your mother to die sooner?”

Laila pretended to be scared. “My phone was on mute.”

Matilda gritted her teeth angrily. “I left a small blue box in the corner of the storeroom. There’s half of the antidote in it. Give it to your mother, it can prolong her life.”

Laila hurriedly did as instructed. Half an hour later, Matilda called again and asked about Abigail. After learning that Abigail’s condition was indeed getting better, she began to manipulate Laila. “Eating only half the antidote will speed up the death process. In four hours, your mother will die. If you don’t believe me, just wait and see her condition get worse soon. I have the remaining hall. If you want it, go to the last compartment of the women’s restroom on the first floor right now. There’s a transparent plastic bag stuck inside the toilet tank with a black pill in it. Make Christina eat the pill, and once I get the news of her death, I’ll give you the antidote.”

Before Laila could respond, the call was hung up. Matilda was utterly excited, feeling she could control other people’s lives and deaths at will. She sent a message to Meganc (It was a success. Wait for the good news.

Megan replied: [Leave Jacaster immediately. Once you

u arrive in another city, contact me. I’ll transfer the money to you.]

Matilda replied “OK” but didn’t do as Megan said. Instead, she went to the hospital in disguise because she wanted to witness the results of her control over people’s lives. She felt a great sense of achievement after hearing that Christina was sent to the emergency room, and knowing that Christina wouldn’t survive, she prepared to leave. What she said about giving Laila the other half of the antidote was naturally a lie, as she didn’t have it at all. This was a trick the seller used when the antidote was provided to her.

When she opened the elevator door, a group of men in police uniforms came out and pressed her down directly. Matilda didn’t react for a moment, with her face rubbing against the floor. “What’s the meaning of this?”

A policeman stated, “You’re suspected of poisoning Christina Fletcher. Now that the evidence is conclusive, we, the Jacaster police, will be arresting you.”

“I-I didn’t do anything! I’m innocent!” shouted Matilda

The police pulled her up and handcuffed her hands behind her back. Matilda’s face twisted in rage. “Let me go! You’ve caught the wrong person!”

Just then, she saw Stephanie and Laila in the crowd.

“B i t c h! It must be you! You framed me!” She rushed past them frantically but fell and knelt before Stephanie due to her hands getting handcuffed. “B i t h, I raised you. Is this how you treat me?”

Stephanie looked at her indifferently. “The Hayes family raised me for 14 years, and Florence has enjoyed my glory. We’re even now.”

“You still dare to mention Flore? If it weren’t for you, how could Flore die? Why weren’t you the one who died?” shouted Matilda.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Looking at Matilda’s angry and hateful eyes, Stephanie stepped forward and looked down at her. “I really doubt whether I’m actually your biological daughter.”

Matilda winced, her mind buzzing momentarily. “Of course you are! I really regret giving birth to you and not strangling you to death. You competed for Flore’s nutrition when you were in my belly. Flore is in poor health, so you’re born to pay debts!”

Stephanie questioned, “If you hate me this much, why didn’t you kill me instead of going through all the trouble to kill Christina?”

Matilda knew that no matter how she argued, it would be useless. Thinking that the police wouldn’t arrest her if they didn’t have certain evidence of the crime, she laughed. “I can only target those around you because there are too many people protecting you. Christina is from the Fletcher family, so once she dies, there’ll be a c r a c k in your relationship with Vincent. Let’s see how you can still be with him against your conscience.”

Matilda’s words made sense, which could explain her motive for murdering Christina. However, it was different from what Stephanie thought, and she guessed that something must have gone wrong with Christina’s robot dog.

“Robot dog, Megan, Florence, Matilda… she thought quickly about the connection between the names.

She looked at Matilda abruptly. “What’s the connection between you a

and her?”

Matilda pursed her lips, not knowing who the “her” Stephanie was talking about, but she had a vague feeling that something could no longer be hidden. She cursed inwardly, “Damn it! I can’t let this happen. Meg’s life will get ruined if things get exposed!’

She stopped talking, but a plan was brewing in her mind. Stephanie looked at her with narrowed eyes. seen, something she didn’t have in her memory.

Sensing something fishy, she went on tentatively, “Are you protecting her?”

Matilda stared at her fiercely. “If I could have a chance to redo life, I would never let you live!”

This was Matilda’s quietest moment she had ever

Stephanie had long been immune to her verbal abuse, and she felt even more that Matilda was suspicious. When the police escorted Matilda into the elevator, she whispered something to another police officer after handing over the evidence.

The police nodded. “Got it”

The moment the elevator door closed, Matilda’s resentful glare was blocked out. Stephanie contacted Vincent and told him about Matilda’s motive

Vincent asked, “Do you believe what she said?”

“Intuitively, I don’t believe her,” replied Stephanie.

Vincent stated, “Then do what you think in your mind.”

Stephanie raised her eyebrows. “Do you know something?”

“Nope,” replied Vincent.

He had never lied to her, so Stephanie trusted him deeply. She murmured, “I just suspect that Megan controlled everything behind this to win you.”

Vincent’s hand holding the coffee cup shook, and the coffee almost spilled out.

“You see, Megan has fallen for you, so she called Christie out to make it look like she’s being kidnapped and then called Florence to be her shield. The kidnapper killed Florence, and Megan then used Matilda to kill Christie, which is a perfectly closed loop.” Stephanie continued, explaining, “Although you’re known to be disabled in public, your face is truly handsome, so it’s possible that Megan fell for your face. Now that she knows you’re not disabled, will she covet you even more? Once the seeds of desire are planted in her heart, her desire to obtain you will become more urgent, so will I encounter some danger again?”

was correct. He smiled. “I’ll protect you.”

Vincent was shocked by Stephanie’s thought, but apart from the motive guessed differently, everything else was

“I trust you.” Stephanie looked at the time. It was already ten o’clock at night. “I’m gonna give Christie and the others another checkup before going

home.”

“Okay, I’ll wait for you,” said Vincent.

Stephanie then ended the call and went to the ICU

Meanwhile, the police escorted Matilda out of the inpatient department’s entrance. After struggling violently, Matilda rushed out to the road, trying to crash into cars. However, her hair was pulled instantly, which made her scalp numb, causing her to grit her teeth in pain.

The police sneered. “Thankfully Dr. Hayes told me you might do this, otherwise who knows what would happen. If you want to die, don’t drag others in. Prepare for the legal punishment!”

In the darkness, a woman with her body covered tightly watched the scene, her eyes looking fierce. “This trash can’t do anything right, just like Florence! Looks like only Horace is useful now.”
