Chapter 6
Seeing this, I immediately stepped in front of Mom and slapped Gabriel hard across the face.
“My mother wouldn’t have come to harm even if you were dead! How’s that? Do you finally know who’s actually dead?”
Gabriel’s eyes were bloodshot as he glared at me, and finally, he broke down, shouting in fury, “Amelia! Why didn’t you tell me when my mother ́ got hurt? What the hell were you thinking?! Answer me!”
I ignored his rage and spoke calmly. “What do you mean, I didn’t tell you? Wasn’t I the first one to call you when she got hurt? You were too busy flirting with your little lover and refused to give money for her surgery, delaying your mother’s treatment.
“And now you have the nerve to ask what my intentions were? I want to ask you the same thing! When I stopped you from donating your mother’s body, you didn’t listen. When I tried to talk some sense into you about handling her ashes properly instead of following your lover’s whim, you snatched the urn from me and dumped it straight into the river!
“You know full well what you were up to. You only acted recklessly because you thought it was my mother who had died, right? So, how’s that? So, karma finally caught up with you, didn’t it?”
The moment I finished speaking, Patrick fainted on the spot.
Gabriel’s relatives were in shock, almost dropping their jaws.
“Oh my God! Did I just hear that right? This brat killed his mother and didn’t even spare her ashes? No wonder it took him so long to come back!

“Didn’t you hear what was said earlier? Before scattering his mother’s ashes, he even donated her body! What a cruel twist! She lived a life of prestige, and in the end, this is how it turned out–no trace of her
remains!”
“Looks like he thought it was his mother–in–law who had died, but even if it had been, that doesn’t justify this! He’s a beast!‘
Someone muttered, “He’s not even close to a beast! What a monster! The Simon family must be cursed to produce a son like this!”
Gabriel, born a pampered golden boy, had never heard such words. Upon ́hearing them, he completely broke down.
He trembled, barely able to stand, flailing his hands as he tried to explain. “No… It’s not like that… I don’t know… I don’t know how it turned out like this… I really don’t know!”
Seeing the situation spiral, Angelica froze in shock too. She mustered courage and quietly approached him. “Mr. Simon, please don’t be upset. If Madam Simon saw you like this, she would be worried.”
Her words only unleashed Gabriel’s fury. He stepped forward, grabbed her chin hard, looking like a demon risen from hell. “This is all your fault! If it weren’t for you, my mother wouldn’t have died! Nothing would have ended up like this!”
Angelica was stunned. She never expected that the man who had been gentle with her just half an hour ago could turn on her like this. She couldn’t even focus on the pain in her chin.
Tears streamed down her face as she looked up at him, pitiful and fragile, struggling to say, “Mr. Simon, please calm down… You’re hurting me…

“I know you’re sad that Madam Simon passed away. It was all an accident. I just wanted to save some money… Please let go of me…
But Gabriel’s grip tightened, and he crushed her chin with force. “You think I care about a little money? If it weren’t for how new and tempting you are, do you think I would even bother playing along until now? You killed my mother–now I’ll make you pay with your life!”
