Because inside was a photo of Anna Hollis, and it was a bloody photo, with Anna Hollis’s eyes already gouged out, looking dark. Eleanor Hollis’s heart was pounding, and she swallowed hard. She threw the photo into the trash can, she didn’t even need to think to know who did it, none other than Alice Lynch. Alice Lynch believed that Anna Hollis’s death was all her doing and wanted to seek revenge for her daughter. Eleanor found it amusing, Anna Hollis’s suicide note was written very clearly - she took that step because of family reasons, it was Alice Lynch’s own vanity and ambition that harmed the other person, yet now she was here to seek justice for her daughter. She curled her lips coldly and made a call to the reception, instructing them not to accept any more deliveries from others in the future. The reception knew about her relationship with Hugo Quinn, so they immediately nodded in agreement. So the next time Alice Lynch tried to send something, she was decisively turned away. Alice Lynch’s eyes were bloodshot, she hadn’t slept well for the past few days, every time she closed her eyes, Anna Hollis’s figure would appear in her mind, and she couldn’t take it anymore, she didn’t know what to do, until she thought of this method. As long as the people her daughter hated during her lifetime had a difficult time, maybe her daughter’s death wouldn’t seem so unjust. She absolutely didn’t believe her daughter died because of her, she was obviously so good to her daughter, always saving the best things for her. She left Grandeur in disappointment, still holding several photos of Anna Hollis, not knowing what to do. "Alice, let’s go home, don’t disturb Eleanor anymore." Nicholas Hollis followed behind her, speaking, feeling a bit of pity as he saw her skeletal frame. Alice Lynch stopped in her tracks, her daughter was gone, and now she didn’t want anything anymore, it all seemed meaningless. Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵·𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖·𝙣𝙚𝙩 "Nicholas Hollis, you never treated Anna like your child, of course, you don’t know how sad I am now, I carried that child for ten months, sobbing, how can you understand my feelings right now, I wish I could kill Eleanor Hollis, it’s all because of that bitch that my woman died!!" She said, her eyes bloodshot, still not thinking she bore any responsibility. Nicholas slowly closed his eyes, feeling as if he didn’t know this woman anymore, at the beginning, Alice was very gentle, it was because of her gentleness that he fell in love with her, even if that love was sinful. "Why do you say that? Isn’t Eleanor also my child? You say you want to kill my daughter in front of me, as her father, haven’t you considered my feelings, if you really want to avenge Anna, the first person you should kill is yourself!!" His voice was loud, sounding like thunder to Alice Lynch. She took a big step back, looking at him with a pale face. She shook her head, impossible, how could she be her daughter’s murderer, these people are all shirking responsibility! Nicholas’s heart suddenly felt a sense of ease, he’d put up with enough during this period, this woman was simply unreasonable, he’d never seen anyone so unreasonable!! "Anna’s suicide note was written very clearly, she said she was tired, didn’t want to live this life anymore, she wanted to take you away with her, but you responded with a slap, Alice Lynch, you should reflect on yourself, don’t always push everything on others!" After speaking, Nicholas was ready to leave. Alice Lynch shouted, her chest heaving violently. If she didn’t keep striving, how could she and Anna have a good life, everything she initially had was earned by herself. If she had accepted her fate, accepted being ordinary, she would’ve always stayed in that small fishing village, it was impossible to leave the mountains and become a lady of the Hollis Family. Nicholas stopped in his tracks, then curled his lips slightly, staying silent, turned and looked at her quietly, then decisively took out his phone, dialing 110. Alice Lynch saw him dialing, and was startled, rushing over to snatch his phone, viciously hung up, then stared at him. "What do you want to do? You want to call the police on me?! Nicholas Hollis, I’ve been by your side all these years, and got nothing, now you want to put me in jail, don’t you have any conscience?! Hahaha, your heart must be made of stone, right? Today I’m going to dig your heart out!!" She finished speaking, and maniacally lunged at Nicholas. Nicholas staggered back from her pounce, nearly falling to the ground. This person must be crazy! "Let go of me! Alice Lynch, are you mad?!" Nicholas found it extremely uncomfortable with his neck being strangled by her, feeling as if he could barely breathe. His breathing became increasingly difficult, his eyes already starting to go white. Alice Lynch seemed to suddenly come to her senses, hurriedly releasing her grip. She didn’t want to go to jail, absolutely didn’t want to go to jail! "Nicholas, Nicholas are you okay?" She fearfully kept patting his face, panic written all over her face. Nicholas finally caught his breath, a moment ago he really thought he might die, maybe in that instant, this woman wanted to kill him. He shoved her away and took deep breaths. "Nicholas, I’m sorry, I was too agitated, I’m sorry." She kept apologizing, a blank look on her face. "Nicholas, you can’t call the police, if you call the police, my life will be over, Anna and I can’t have anything happen, we have to take back the Hollis Family’s things, those things can’t fall into Eleanor Hollis’s hands, that bitch isn’t worthy!" She kept mumbling to herself, her whole body shaking. Nicholas frowned, looking at her, thinking something was off about her. He called her name, but Alice Lynch didn’t react at all, continuing to curse Eleanor Hollis. Nicholas called again, trying to hold her. But Alice pushed him away, looking at him with unfamiliar eyes. "Who’s Alice? I’m Rachel Lynch, I’m Rachel Lynch, I don’t know any Alice, hehe." She clapped her hands and said, turning to leave. Nicholas was shocked, could she be insane? He quickly bent down to pick up his phone, called 120, and forcibly put Alice into the car. Rachel kept struggling, several nurses couldn’t hold her down, finally, a few men came over to help restrain her, and the nurse seized the chance to administer the sedative. Nicholas brought her to the hospital, his mind in disarray, if Alice was truly insane, it would weigh heavily on him, as if he was a failure. In that moment, he felt so utterly defeated.
