That day, Betty Harrison heard Amelia Cobb's answer, which was something she had never thought of after days of pondering.
Her tone was light, but inexplicably carried an invisible firmness: "Because I love him."
I love him, it's a beautiful declaration at a wedding.
In everyday life, it's a romantic announcement.
But at this moment, Betty Harrison saw in Amelia Cobb nothing but a sin worthy of death.
This sentence from Amelia Cobb undoubtedly told Betty Harrison: if I love him, and he still hides the truth and hurts me, then he deserves to die.
As if Amelia Cobb's love was some sort of rare treasure.
She had given this rare treasure to Christopher Robinson.
If Christopher Robinson did not cherish it, then he deserved to die.
God-like?
This was the word Betty Harrison came up with to describe Amelia Cobb at this moment. She was like a god, coming down to earth for Christopher Robinson. If he didn't cherish it - she had ways to take his life.
