Chapter 441: Abandoned

"You sound like a psychologist!" Ella chuckled softly. Pretending to be a patient for so long had been excruciating—she had even been denied the luxury of laughter. 

The day Eric stormed into the hospital room and confronted her, she had hidden under the blanket, her entire body shaking with silent laughter, trying desperately not to make a sound. 

"I've read plenty of books on psychology," Eric said calmly. "On the day Hannah had her car accident, Matthew used his connections to save her. Then he replaced her with a female corpse altered to resemble Tiffany, got Andrew to sign off immediately, and had the body cremated." 

Ella was stunned. "Isn't Country W's healthcare system supposed to be incredibly strict? How is that even possible?" 

"In this world, nothing is absolutely strict," Eric replied with a cool tone. "Matthew has an extensive network, and when money flows freely, people are willing to do his bidding."
