The house where Amanda and I live has an older woman and a six-year-old girl. They warmly welcomed us. After a night of rest, the charity team started working at six o'clock in the morning. Most people in this town had already woken up at this hour to start their daily work.Amanda and I were assigned to review each family's situation and document what those families lacked.The town had less than forty houses, so in one day, Amanda and I finished the mission. While on duty, Amanda constantly lamented the plight of the people here. I feel Amelinda's words are actual. Amanda is still too innocent and pure, so she needs to be exposed to the outside world more to train herself.After delivering the report to the charity's leader, Avis, we were assigned to the area to cook food for the people. Today the charity group will treat the people in the town to a full meal. Although there are not many people in the town, there are nearly a hundred people, plus the number of people from the charit
I was dumbfounded for a moment, not understanding what Avis was saying. His arguments are very reasonable, but not for me. I only go to the well to wash my hands and face. I didn't put anything in the well. How could he blame me?The expression of my astonishment and astonishment in Avis' eyes was an expression of anxiety as my crime was revealed. He angrily said, "Lady Sharmaine, I don't understand why you are doing this. Can you tell me the reason?"I recovered my spirits after being shocked by Avis' words. I calmly said, "Mr. Avis, I don't understand what you are saying. The hypothesis you put forward to explain the cause of people getting food poisoning is very reasonable, but it is also just a hypothesis. Besides, I didn't put anything in the well at all. I want to ask who is the person who denounced me. I need to confront that person to clear things up. You can't believe a one-sided word and blame me."Avis was stunned. After a while, he said, "I promised that person not to reve
Amanda was furious because of the words of the people in the charity group. She wanted to rush out and scold them, but I managed to drag her to the back of the house to talk.Amanda is a straight girl who doesn't know how to hide her feelings. She angrily asked me, "Aren't you angry? Do not worry! I will help you punish those people."She said and then struggled out of my arms, wanting to run away to find the others.I quickly pulled her back and held her hand tightly so she wouldn't run away. I whispered, "Don't make a fuss; they'll know we're eavesdropping on them. Things are going badly; I don't want any more trouble."Maybe someone as simple as Amanda didn't understand how I could be so patient. She glared at me for a moment before she calmed down. She shoved my hand away from her, and despite her anger, she lowered her voice, "If you don't speak up, those people will be even more outrageous. Everything has not been investigated; how can they confirm that you are the one who poiso
Some people got angry after hearing what Daisy said. They criticized me."Do you have anything to deny? Daisy has seen all your evil deeds.""I didn't expect you to be such a cruel person! What have the people here done to you?""For what purpose are you doing this? Wicked one!""Damned! I will not yield to you even if you are Sir Darian's wife. You have to take responsibility for this.""You want our charity to lose its reputation with you. It was unfortunate that we met you.""Even if you have Sir Darian behind you, I must sue you. You are evil! You harmed the innocent people and scared Daisy.""If something happens to Daisy, I believe you are the one who harmed her because you want revenge on her."“…”Amanda was furious. She yelled, "Shut up! The truth is still not clear. People have no right to scold her."Most people are silent, but a few are too angry or have big guts to continue to criticize."The truth is clear! Even the investigators who come here can't whitewash her.""I kn
I woke up in terrible pain. My body fell apart as if every part had been taken apart. I want to move, but I can't. My finger moved just a little, and it hurt.I slowly opened my eyes, and my eyes were still a dramatic black that was no different from when I closed my eyes. All around me, there were all kinds of small insect calls. I am familiar with it because I have lived in the forest long.I can feel some insects crawling on me. I was extremely thirsty and hungry, but then I didn't care anymore because the pain all over my body paralyzed my nerves.I was in so much pain that I wanted to pass out again, but I still stayed awake to remember what had happened to me. My head hurts like it's about to burst. Several images flashed through my mind, reminding me that someone had hit me unexpectedly. Maybe after that person knocked me out and threw me into the ravine, I'm lying in a deep ravine.I tried to remember who hit me but couldn't because I didn't see him then. But I guess it was a
"How is it possible? The mayor never mentioned you going up the mountain." Amanda was bewildered.I lowered my face and said, "That's what I wonder. He was the one who suggested it to me, but why when I went missing, he didn't tell anyone about it.""Perhaps he was the one who harmed you. He lures you up the mountain to attack you and wants to kill you." Amanda opened her eyes wide, covering her mouth with her hand, her face full of horror as if she had just discovered a shocking secret.I stayed silent, not knowing how to respond. In the immediate future, the mayor is the most suspicious person because only he knows I went up the mountain, and he purposely kept it a secret. Still, I don't believe he was the one who beat me up in the mountain because he's grown up anyway age, so his strength can't be so muscular that I can't fight back.I told Amanda, "Even though I couldn't see the killer's face, I don't think he was the mayor because he had powerful, muscular arms. Maybe the mayor k
Darian said, "I want to give you a chance to confess the truth. If you're the one who put poison in the well water, admit it. I will help you cover this up. As for you being pushed down the cliff, I will find the mastermind to defeat him."I opened my eyes wide, unable to believe what I just heard. Is he suspicious of me? No, he did not doubt. He asserted that I was the one who poisoned the people's healthy water.My heart throbbed a little. I can accept anyone who doubts or harms me because those people are people I don't care about, but I don't want Darian to doubt me. The frustration in my heart increased a little more. The pain mixed in with my every breath, making me feel like I couldn't breathe.It took a while for me to calm down. I tried so hard not to get so frustrated that I cried, but my throat seemed to choke, making my voice choke, "You don't believe me!"I remember Amanda telling me today that the investigation team had not found any new leads. The accusations against me
I suppressed the uneasiness in my heart, saying, "Did you get any more information from Alex? Has there been any new information about the poisonous well water?"Logan said cautiously, "Alex testified that he and Daisy were both hired by Luna Layla to harm Sharmaine. Daisy is the one who poisons the people's well water. The one who spread rumors to the people to rebel was Alex. The investigation team tortured Daisy to ask her where the potion was. She buried the potion under a tree in the village. The investigation team found that evidence. Currently, the people on the investigation team need you to come up with a solution. They don't dare to arbitrarily announce the results because the mastermind in this is Luna Layla."I clenched my fist. The anger in my heart could not be contained, so I slammed my hand on the table hard.Logan did not dare to breathe when he saw me in such an angry state. He is silent, trying to reduce his existence as much as possible.After a while, I was able t
