NovelEndChapter 0331 Chapter 0331 "It wasn't her! It was me!" Ruby's composure shattered as she pointed at herself repeatedly, her voice rising. "Suzy, I'm the real killer! Why won't you believe me?" "You and I both know the truth better than anyone," Suzy said, her voice calm but sharp. A small, knowing smile played on her lips. "And besides, Charlotte has already confessed." "She's only taking the blto protect me!" Ruby argued desperately, "I'm her sister. She'd never stand by and watchdie!" "Do you remember when you toldyou never reunited with Charlotte?" Suzy's smile deepened into something more cunning.
It dawned on Ruby that she had just contradicted herself. Her eyes flickered with panic. That's not what I meant! What I meant to say was... she must have figured out who I am, she stepped forward to take the fall for me!" "What a perfect example of talking yourself into trouble," Suzy thought.

Leaning in closer, Suzy's gaze darkened. "So, she really is alive." 50 "You're just trying to trickinto admitting it!" Ruby realized too late what she had done.
Suzy raised an eyebrow. "Then tellwhere is Charlotte?" Ruby's pretense crumbled, and she snapped, "Fine! Yes, Charlotte is the one who killed them! But your family deserved it." "Deserved it?" Suzy's brows furrowed, anger simmering in her voice. "We took her in from the orphanage, gave her a better life, gave her a chance to rise above. My parents treated her like their own. In all the years I remember, they were nothing but kind to her. So, what could we have possibly done to deserve this?" Ruby's face twisted with hatred. "Your so-called noble father was just a hypocrite. Treat her like a sister? Since when does a brother sleep with his sister?" Suzy's heart clenched, but she kept her composure. "Did Charlotte tell you this?" Ruby stiffened, her confidence faltering.
Suzy's lips curled into a mocking smile. "You know, Charlotte told Mark something entirely different. According to him, she claimed she killed my family because she loved iny father and couldn't have him. She called it unrequited love. Sounds tolike she's been feeding you lies just as easily as she's lied to everyone else." "That's impossible!" Ruby shouted, shaking her head vehemently. "She's my sister/ She'd never lie to me!" Chapter 0331 "You haven't seen her in years. Do you really know her?" Suzy's words were cutting, shattering Ruby's defenses. "I've spent years with her, thinking I was the most important person in her life. She said I mattered more than her own life, but the truth? She lied to me, every single day." "That's you!" Ruby snapped, clinging to her denial. "You're a Frost, part of the family she despises. I'm her sister! It's completely different!" Suzy sighed, seeing the futility of reasoning with someone who refused to see the truth. Ruby, if she really thought of you as her sister, she wouldn't have let you take the fall for her." "She didn't let me. I chose this!" Ruby sneered, her voice filled with bitterness. "You can stop trying to drive a wedge between us, Suzy. I won't betray my sister. If you think I'll give up her location, you're dreaming!" Suzy's expression didn't waver. "If you won't speak, someone else will." With that, she turned and walked out, leaving Ruby behind.
Ruby watched her go, Suzy's words lingering like an echo in her mind.
For the first time, she began to scrutinize her relationship with Charlotte.

She thought back to the scattered moments they'd shared since reuniting. The more sheremembered, the clearer it became. Charlotte's affection for her had always seemed... calculated.
Whenever Charlotte reached out, it was never just to reconnect. There was always an ulterior motive. IM e there was no need, years could pass without a single word. Even when Ruby tried to contact her, Charlotte's responses were curt and impatient.
This realization struck harder than Ruby wanted to admit. Like now-after Xit like three years silence, Charlotte had suddenly called out of the blue, claiming to miss her. of mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofifl0&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
