Chapter 68

Edward looked indifferently at George and Meghan, who kept shouting-

His eyes were cold.

"Eddie, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and help me untie this George shouted.

"Eddie, it hurts so much... Meghan complained.

Edward looked at them coldly and said, "Mom is so kind. She tied up you all day and night, but you surprisingly don't have many injuries.”

George's heart sank. He said, "What do you mean by that? Don't talk so much nonsense. Just let me gol

Edward suddenly laughed.

He turned the dagger in his hand.

Then, he suddenly thrust the dagger into George's shoulder.

“Ahhh!” The severe pain made George scream uncontrollably.

"Do

you understand what I mean now? Edward asked indifferently as he turned the dagger, causing the blade to scrape against the flesh around the wound. George's whole body trembled, and his face twisted.

He roared. "You... You're such a rebellious sont I'm your father! I can't believe you did this to me! You'll have a miserable end!"

Edward sneered. “When you were plotting to kill me, did you ever think that I'm your son'

George said in a trembling voice, "No matter what, you can't kill me. Your life was given by me. Even if I end your life, you have no right to blame me. I've let you live for so many years!" Edward smiled and said, "Dad, your genes are so strong. I perfectly inherited your selfish genes. When I stabbed you, I didn't feel guilty at all. J

• Just like when you said you wanted to kill me, there was no hesitation or reluctance. Neither of us is humane, so let's not accuse each other." George looked at Edward in horror.

Edward smiled lightly, even with a hint of warmth, but it sent a chill down George's heart.

He always knew Edward was very rational. Sometimes, he was too rational and lacked a bit of human kindness.

Even if something happened to George and Bethany, Edward's priority wasn't caring for them, but rather preserving the Gallagher family's reputation.

But at least he wouldn't harm them before.

Now, Edward was going after him, and he was full of fear.

“Eddie, calm down. We're a family. Let's talk nicely George said in a trembling voice, “Besides, killing people is illegal. You still have a bright future. Don't ruin your career just because of impulse! You've always been calm. Don't do anything stupid!"

Edward shook his head. "I have no future. But Mom, Jas, and Sam still do. You two selfish and vicious individuals will become burdens to them or even drag them down. Evangeline hates us the most, and she also wants our lives because only we three want to kill her. Mom, Jas, and Sam are just indifferent to her. The punishment they've received is enough to compensate for the harm they've caused her. Only the three of us need to die to get rid of our sins."

George's face filled with terror. "What.what do you mean? What are you going to do?"

Meghan was trembling with fear.

Even though Edward didn't touch her or speak to her, she was still scared out of her wits.

What Edward meant was that he wanted them to die with him!

Chapter 68

She didn't want to die!

Even if her reputation was tarnished, becoming a public enemy, and even if her body was broken, she still wanted to live.

She was so rich. As long as she stayed alive, she could continue to live in comfort.

She didn't want to die!

"Boo-hoo! Eddie, please let us go... Let me go. L.. I'll try to kill Evangeline. She's the culprit in our family's misfortune, and if she dies, we'll be all right, and we can continue to live as lovingly as before. You're the most rational person in our family. Don't do anything stupid! We're in the same boat. We should be united, not killing each other!” Meghan tried to convince him with tears in her eyes.

Slap!

Edward turned around and slapped Meghan in the face,

The slap was very hard.

Meghan's head was tilted and hit the pillar behind her, making a loud noise.

Her head swayed a few times, then drooped down and didn't move.

It was unclear whether she had been knocked unconscious by a slap or by a collision

George was trembling with fear. He looked at Edward in horror and didn't dare to breathe

Edward turned around and walked out.

George didn't dare to say anything. He could only watch him close the door.

The dagger was still in

in George's body, and he didn't dare to let Edward pull it out.

When Edward returned to the living room on the first floor, Bethany was sitting on the couch in a daze with her phone in her hand.

Obviously, she had learned about the public opinion on the Internet.

And what Edward had done.

"Mom," Edward walked into the living room and called softly.

Bethany came back to her senses and looked up at Edward dumbly.

After a while, Bethany asked in a trembling voice, "Eddie, is everything on the Internet true? Did you really tell Pamela to die and frame Evangeline?"

Edward pursed his lips and nodded.

Bethany's eyes turned red..

She stood up abruptly and slapped Edward in the face.

Slapt

Edward's face tilted slightly to one side, and there still was no expression on his face.

Bethany cried out hoarsely. "How could you do such a thing? Instigating others to end their life is a crime! Besides, Evangeline is your sister. How could you use such vicious means against her! If your plan succeeds, Evangeline will become a murderer, and she'll lose her life!"

Edward didn't say anything.

Bethany burst into tears. "I always thought you were just indifferent to family ties. I didn't expect you to be so cruel. You wanted to kill your sister and even forced an innocent girl to die for her! You're so frightening. Why did you become like this! You've always been the most sensible and reliable one. Why did you become like this..

Bethany cried heartbrokenly.

At this moment, she was even more shocked than when she found out that George had an affair with Meghant

Edward looked at Bethany, who was crying loudly and remained silent.

After a few seconds, he turned around and walked upstairs.

A few minutes later, he came back downstairs and placed a card on the table. He said to Bethany, "During this period, I've liquidated all the assets that the Gallagher family can convert into cash. The money is now deposited in foreign banks, so no matter what happens here, it's still safe. The Gallagher family can't recover anymore, Arthur has been targeting Gallagher Group recently, and it's only a matter of time before Gallagher Group goes bankrupt Selling the shares at a low price before Gallagher Group goes bankrupt will save you at least some money. As long as you don't gamble, this money will be enough for the rest of your life. Just keep this card. I've left some for Jas and Sam."

Bethany looked at Edward in a daze.

He had already made preparations.

She didn't know what to say for a moment

Edward poured Bethany a glass of warm water and handed it to her. "Drink some water first and calm down."

Bethany took the water and drank it.

After drinking the water, she felt dizzy

Before she could ask, she fainted on the couch.

Bethany didn't know how long she had been in a deep sleep.

When she woke up, she found herself lying in the room, covered with a quilt.

She looked outside, and it was already morning.

The phone displayed eight-thirty in the morning

She hurried out of the room and ran downstairs. She didnt see Edward.

She immediately ran to the basement and found that George and Meghan were gone!

The dagger was missing.

The floor was cleaned, too. There was no blood on iL

Were they taken by Edward?" she thought.

Bethany ran back to the living room on the first floor and took out her phone to call Edward, but no one answered.

"What does Eddie want to do? Where did he go!" she murmured.

Just then, the doorbell rang,

Bethany ran to open the door and found several police officers standing outside.

The police officer standing in the front took out his police ID card and an arrest warrant. He said to Bethany, "Hello, we're of

're officers from Hofcaster Police Station. Last night, it was exposed on the Internet that Edward induced others to end their life and manipulated public opinion to frame another person. After a police investigation, it has been confirmed to be true. Now we need to bring Edward back to the station for further investigation. Are you Edward's mother? Please cooperate with us and call Edward out." When the Pamela incident broke out last night, the police were off duty.

So they couldn't conduct an investigation immediately.

As soon as they got to work today, they started investigating the matter and immediately applied for a warrant for Edward's arrest.

Bethany turned pale and said in a trembling voice, "Edward isn't at home....

The police asked, "Do you know where he went?"

Bethany shook her head. “I don't know, I was trying to contact him just now, but couldn't reach him.”

She also showed the police the call records from her phone, proving that she had made dozens of attempts to call Edward.
