Chapter 120

Vincent King held Candy Wilson tightly in his arms as the black car sped through the night. Roger Davis's hands trembled slightly on the steering wheel. Susan Thompson sat in the passenger seat, watching Vincent's bloodshot eyes in the rearview mirror.

She had never seen him like this before.

"Stop the car," Susan suddenly said. "I need to go back to Elysium to get the surveillance footage."

Roger's fingers tightened on the wheel as he glanced at Vincent through the mirror.

"Innocent?" Vincent's voice was icy. "I saw you push her with my own eyes."

Susan whipped her head around. "Candy fell on her own!"

"Susan!" Vincent slammed his fist against the seat. "If anything happens to Candy or the baby, I'll make you pay with your life!"

The hospital hallway was bathed in harsh white light.

Roger kept watch over Susan as her phone screen lit up. Bella Lucas replied quickly: "Don't worry, Susan. I'll retrieve the footage right away!"

"The camera was broken?" Susan stared at the latest message, her fingers turning cold.

The emergency room doors suddenly swung open.

"We couldn't save the baby," the doctor said, causing Vincent to stagger. "And... Miss Wilson will never be able to conceive again."

When Vincent turned, Susan saw murderous rage swirling in his eyes.

"Susan." He grabbed her throat. "How will you repay this?"

"It's Candy who owes a debt!" Susan gasped for air. "She's acting!"

Vincent's grip tightened. "Say that again?"

Susan's vision began to blur, but at the last moment, she spotted a familiar figure at the end of the hallway—Candy's assistant hastily putting away her phone.

The surveillance might be gone, but the truth would never stay buried.
