His mother only felt disgust and contempt about her, not even a hint of guilt or remorse.

How could she convince herself to swallow this bitter pill? The murderer could literally stand with an air of arrogance in front of the family of her victim as if she had done nothing wrong. It was as if she had never once reproached herself. Even the murder of Bella was no more significant than swatting a fly to her.

"That witch is truly despicable!" Karen understood Dorothy's predicament all too well, "But... she's sick, constantly in and out of the ER. She might kick the bucket before the law even touches her!" Maybe it was worth the wait.

If she did pass away first, Dorothy and Everett wouldn't have to go head-to-head.

"Her death isn't the endgame. | want her to admit her guilt, to pay for her life!" "But that's a hard way to go." It wasn't just like trying to twist an arm with a leg; it was like David fighting Goliath! One wrong move and you'd be squashed.

"Karen, what | fear most isn't the Lopez family coming after me, it's Everett's eyes." Just the thought of Everett's face when he found out his mother was being accused of murder after the video from Byte 7 was restored made her heart wrench with pain.

"What's there to fear? If Everett sides with his mom, then he's not worth it! It's not like you're framing the Lopezes - the evidence is there! An eye for an eye, why should his mother get away with murder?" Dorothy forced a smile, "I'd rather he blames me when he finds out.” "Huh?" Karen was perplexed.

"Because then | wouldn't feel guilty. But | know Everett; he's not like that. He'll be devastated.” He didn't choose his parents.

But they had raised him, and his mother had gone through hell to bring him into this world in that delivery room; he couldn't completely ignore that.

"Once this whole mess blows up, regardless of the outcome, your feud with the Lopez family will be etched in public memory.

Even years later, people will talk, and you'll lose any chance of reconciling with Everett.” Dorothy smiled, "I'm aware of that." "And you're still set on your decision?" "lam." "Alright then! I'll support you with all I've got, and so will Kenneth." Karen extended her hand and gave Dorothy a firm squeeze, "If you think about it, we're only here for a few decades. How you live is up to you. Fighting for justice, uncovering the truth for your mom, that's a life too. It's not like romance love is the only way to carry on." Karen had a unique way of offering support.

Dorothy stretched, resting her head on Karen's shoulder, "Karen, I'm going to win." "Of course, you willl Because you're on the side of justice!" "Yeah... | will win..." Under the starry night sky, she wiped away her tears and took a moment to steady her emotions, "This is the only time | can get along with Everett. | need to enjoy this month, then brace myself to bring Bella's true killer to justice." "I'm with you all the way." Even though Karen wasn't looking at her face, she instinctively reached into her pocket and handed Dorothy a tissue.
