Chapter 1738: 421: What goes around comes around!_3 Chapter 1738: 421: What goes around comes around!_3 “Get the hell out!” Olivia Armstrong's fighting spirit erupted as she kicked Edward Armstrong away, angrily exclaiming, “You can't even protect your own daughter! You're no better!”
Whenever she thought about the contents of Christina Armstrong's suicide note, her anger flared uncontrollably!
Especially when she pictured Christina lying there, broken and battered.
She couldn't fathom what emotions Edward Armstrong and Sabrina Sabir, Christina's biological parents, must have felt upon seeing her in that state.
Were they sad?
Or perhaps they didn't care at all!
After all, they always prioritized money and their son first.
Maybe.
At the very moment Christina jumped from the thirty-sixth floor, they weren't worried about Christina's safety, but whether the three million dollars dowry would be taken back by Peter Stone.
The more Olivia thought about it, the more enraged she became, and her blows grew increasingly ruthless.
Fortunately, several officers ran over to separate them, “You need to talk this out, fighting isn't the answer!”
“Police Officer, please, you have to stand up for me! She almost beat me to death!” Behind the officers, Beatrice Black sought refuge.
Tears welled up in Olivia's eyes, “You drove a perfectly fine child to her death, I'm hitting you for just that! Beatrice Black! You harbinger of doom!”
“Both of you need to cool down. You are relatives to one another; there's no need to make a scene like this!”
Olivia, weeping, said, “Police Officer, you have no idea how vicious this woman is, how much my niece suffered when she was alive!”
“Bullshit!” Beatrice Black cursed furiously, “Olivia, you're distorting the truth! Are you trying to pocket Christina's condolence money? Let me tell you, we are Christina's birth parents, and not a penny of her money will go to you!”
Hearing this not only infuriated Olivia, but even the nearby officers were incensed.
At such a moment, all Beatrice Black could think about was money!
Such parents were truly frightening!
Olivia lunged to attack Beatrice Black again but was stopped by Wennie and William Astir.
“Beatrice Black! Your mother's dead! Your father's dead! Your entire family lineage, are they all inhuman?” Olivia spewed the most vile curses she could muster.
Were it not for the officers keeping them apart, a fierce battle would have been unavoidable.
After a long while, Olivia's emotions gradually settled.
On this side,
Edward Armstrong and Beatrice Black also received Christina's suicide note.
As he looked at the blood-stained letter, Edward Armstrong's hands trembled, and he hesitated to open the envelope.
Beatrice Black was illiterate.
In her time, girls of her age in their village couldn't read.
Because, back then, everyone shared the same notion:
Girls grew up to get married and belong to another family, so education was deemed pointless.
“Open it and see what's written inside!” urged Beatrice Black.
Only then did Edward Armstrong shakily open the envelope.
After reading the first line,
Edward Armstrong was stunned, a surge of rage welling up inside him.
That damn girl!
How dare she!
How could she dare to say these things?
No wonder people threw rotten eggs at them!
Edward Armstrong threw the letter aside and turned to Wennie, “Wennie, did you teach our Christina to write this?”
Christina was just a middle school student; where could she have gotten such eloquence?
And more importantly,
As her father, Edward Armstrong had always known Christina to be an obedient and understanding daughter, which is why she agreed to drop out of middle school to work and earn money for her brother's education, and even in agreeing to this marriage.
Why would Christina suddenly become desperate enough to jump off a building and leave behind such a distortive suicide note?
It must have been Wennie's instigation!
Wennie was the instigator of it all.
After all, Christina had agreed to marry Peter Stone. Knowing her as well as he did, Edward was sure that once Christina gave her word, she wouldn't go back on it.
So, it had to be Wennie!
Edward Armstrong continued, “Wennie! Don't think you're something special just because you make a bit of money! If it wasn't for you, our Christina wouldn't be dead! She would be married to Peter Stone by now and living a good life abroad!”
“Wennie, give me my daughter's life back!”
Wennie was speechless.
She had never expected her uncle to be such a person.
But seeing his true colors in one go was for the best.
From now on, her family would sever all ties with the Armstrong Clan for good.
Seeing Edward Armstrong smear his daughter in such a way, William could not stand it anymore. He rushed over and began to scuffle with Edward, “Edward Armstrong! You killed your own daughter, and now you want to harm mine too? You bastard! I'll beat you to death!”
