Chapter 572
Richard, still immersed in the joy of being able to be together with Maia, was completely
caught off-guard by how Maia shoved him away.
Furthermore, they were both standing very close to the edge. As a result, Richard fell off the
rooftop as his eyes widened in pure shock.
Just in the nick of time, he grabbed the wall ledge!
Holding on for dear life, he hung in the air while struggling desperately, trying to get a
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtbetter grip. However, the wall was dangerously smooth, and he could not get a good grasp
on it. His fingers that clung to the ledge became bruised instantly.
Richard lowered his head and glanced at the ground far below. The dense crowd of cars and
people made his blood flow backward.
His face turned pale. This would be the end for him if he fell!
Richard raised his head and looked at Maia incredulously.
"Why! Why are you doing this!?" he shouted. "Just because I didn't obey your orders and switched the memory-
wiping medicine into poison? You cared about Cedrick's life, but what about mine?! You know I love you!"
Gone was the gentle front Maia would often sport with Richard, replaced by a monstrous expression of
ruthlessness.
Seeing that he had not fallen yet, she walked over slowly.
She squatted in front of him and peeled off his fingers off the edge of the roof, one by one!
"You still have the audacity to say these words to me?" sneered Maia. "Cedrick is going to die, but Grandpa Mason
will surely search for the culprit behind his death. I can't let him suspect me. If you fall from here, I can just say that
you killed yourself because I've rejected your love, and nobody will ever suspect me!"
She continued, "After all, you're the one who changed the medicine, and you're the one who sneaked into the ward
and poisoned Cedrick."
The fingers of Richard's left hand were forcibly pulled apart from their grip by Maia, leaving Richard hanging on the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmedge with just his right hand. His entire body was numb as he lost his balance and swung violently.
"You're wrong, Mai! I love you so much! Even if they manage to find me as the suspect, I'll
take the blame!" he pleaded anxiously. "Please pull me up, won't you? I don't want to die! I
still want to take care of you and our children!"
Maia sneered.
She would not believe such nonsense!
She proceeded to push his remaining fingers from the edge.
One finger... Two fingers...
