Chapter 688

Anya fell to her knees with a thud, holding her lifeless child, unable to contain her sobs.

“Joey, my Joey, wake up! Open your eyes and look at Mommy! Mommy is sorry, Mommy came too late! Joey, sob,

sob!”

As a pregnant expectant mother, Corinne could not help but feel a pang in her heart witnessing the separation of

mother and child. At the same time, she remained cautious, raising her eyes to observe her surroundings, wary of

whether there were others in the miscellaneous room.

Anya’s screams quickly drew the attention of many people.

“Anya, what happened?”

Lucas hurriedly ran in and his face turned solemn upon seeing the scene. 1

Anya continued to sob while holding the child, on the verge of collapse as if her breath was about to give out.

“Brother! Joey, he has stopped breathing, sob, sob!”

Lucas quickly squatted down and reached out to feel the child’s breath, but there was no sign of life. His hand

trembled slightly, he closed his eyes in grief and took a deep breath.

Jeremy entered afterward and his pupils contracted upon seeing the scene. “What happened?”

Hearing the man’s voice, Anya raised her head, tears streaming down her face as she said, “Jeremy, our Joey, he

was murdered!”

Jeremy’s brows furrowed, he froze for a moment, then he kneeled down and gently touched the child’s small hand.

It was still warm, but the child already lost his breath.

Although he only adopted this child with Anya not long ago, despite having no blood relation, he felt deep sorrow

and regret.

A very obedient child, not even two years old yet.

Lucas suddenly opened his eyes, regained his senses, and stood up, loudly commanding the people. around him:

“Investigate! Go and investigate now! Find out who dares to attack my family. I will make their whole family pay with

their lives!”

“Yes, Mister Lucas!”

Someone responded and left, while the others remaining felt sorrow and silently mourned for the prematurely

deceased child.

At that moment, Anya, who was emotionally distraught, suddenly cried out, “Brother, there’s no need to send

anyone to investigate. The killer is right here. I saw it!”

Anya’s words caused an uproar among those present. People looked at each other in disbelief.

Lucas’s expression faltered. “Anya, you saw it? Tell me, who is it?”

With teary eyes, Anya looked at Corinne standing nearby, her gaze filled with sorrow and resentment. “It’s her!”

Corinne was silently praying for the unfortunate child, but she was suddenly accused of being the killer. She

furrowed her brows in surprise, but upon seeing Anya’s excellent acting skills, she was not entirely surprised.

Lucas froze, his angry gaze coldly directed at Corinne. “Is it you who did it?!”

Jeremy, who was squatting beside the child, also turned to look at her. His deep and inscrutable eyes revealed no

emotions, his position unclear.

The gazes of the crowd were filled with anger as they glared at Corinne, the ‘culprit’ who could heartlessly

harm a child. 1

Due to Anya’s words, Corinne instantly became the target of everyone’s accusations. She regained her composure

and calmly stated, “It wasn’t me.”

Anya looked at her in utter despair. “Corinne, the murder weapon is still in your hands. How can you deny it?
