Bab 812: Chapter 0811: Playing Both Sides

Yet inside the house, Phoebe Smith's surroundings told a completely different story.

She sat in front of her laptop, with headphones on her head, and beside her was the recording of her crying that she had previously captured on her mobile phone, which was now playing on loop.

Finally, the knocking sound outside grew louder and more urgent, even coming with an anxious shout, "Phoebe, if you don't open the door, I'll have someone take off this door lock, Phoebe, don't do anything foolish inside..."

Only then did Phoebe Smith slowly close her laptop, take off her headphones, and then smeared some menthol around her eyes. Instantly, the stimulation caused tears to roll down uncontrollably.

Once everything was ready, she went to open the door.

"Phoebe," Susanna Smith immediately became excessively distressed upon seeing Phoebe looking like this, while one side of her face was somewhat swollen, and both sides of her chin appeared as if they had been clamped with pliers.
