The police officer eventually brought the constantly arguing father and son to the police station for mediation.
“You all want the right to dispose of the deceased's body, which puts us in a difficult position. Here's the deal, if
you can provide the deceased's last wishes, we will try our best to respect their desires,” the officer said.
Alaric and Nathan stared at each other.
They knew in their hearts and minds that they had hurt Mrs. Hill, and Mrs. Hill was definitely not willing to entrust
them with her affairs after her passing.
But they were once Mrs. Hill's closest people, whether out of emotion or for their own reputation, they all wanted
to fight for Mrs. Hill's body.
Just when the situation reached a deadlock, an unexpected person appeared.
Theo was wearing a black suit, with a serious expression on his face. Thea, on the other hand, was dressed in a
solemn black dress, holding onto Theo's arm as they appeared at the police station.
Nathan saw him, as if seeing the enemy who killed his mother, with fiery eyes like that of an eagle. He shouted
loudly, “What are you here for? Theo, | presyou are responsible for my mother’s death, aren't you?”

Theo said to the police officer, “Officer, does this count as defamation against me?”
The police officer reminded Nathan, “Nathan, if there is no evidence, don’t talk nonsense.”
Nathan glared at Theo with hatred, his eyes were a blatant declaration of war.
Theo walked up to Nathan and gazed at the exhausted Nathan, suddenly giving a knowing smile.
“Nathan, how did you manage to get yourself into such a sorry state? Tsk tsk tsk,” Theo said with a look of pity.
Nathan exclaimed angrily, “It’s all because of you. Theo, how dare you come... how do you have the audacity to
come.”
The police officer explained the reason why Theo and Thea were here. “Nathan, your mother’s last phone call
was to Ms. Thea, so we called her to cand learn about the case.”

Nathan looked at Thea in astonishment, “Impossible, my mom used to dislike her the most.”
Thea handed the voice recorder to the police officer and said, “Officer, when Aunt Hill called| clearly sensed
that something was off with her emotions. So, I intentionally becmore cautious and recorded the entire
conversation.”
Thea glanced at Nathan and said, “Aunt Hill said that the biggest regret of her life was marrying into the Hill
family and giving birth to an incompetent son. She lived her whole life for others and ended up alone and
helpless in her old age. So, if there is a next life, she would rather be a spinster for her whole

life, never getting married, and be a forever princess under her parents’ knees.”
The police officer turned on the recording device, and in the recording, Aunt Hill really showed her true nature of
“speaking well when one is about to die,” expressing her remorse for Thea in every word and line. “Thea, it was
my fault before. You were clearly a good wife and daughter-in-law, but | didn't appreciate it and always looked
down on you for being born poor. | successfully broke you up with Nathan. Now | am also facing retribution. God
punishedby givinga morally bankrupt and untrustworthy woman as a daughter-in-law. Nathan seems to
be enchanted by her and even disowns his own family. Thea, | have no face to ask for your forgiveness for
Nathan and to reconcile with him. If there is a next life, | hope you will cback to be my daughter-in-law
again...”
The recording ended, and the police officer glanced meaningfully at Nathan. “Nathan, your mother’s words in
this message were her final words before she passed away. | believe this message is essentially her last will and
testament. Since she made it clear that she wanted to sever all ties with you, you have no right to claim her
body.”
The police officer said to Alaric, “Mr. Hill, you can take your ex- wife’s body away. It's up to you to handle Mrs.
Hill's funeral arrangements.”
Nathan completely broke down.
He was furious and yelled at Thea. “Thea, you are clearly deliberately going against me. You have a cruel heart,
makingeven more miserable than if you had taken my life. My mother passed away, and yet you won't let

to her.”
He started crying uncontrollably as he kept talking.
He was in such pain, he thought Thea would feel guilty.
But when he saw the smirk of schadenfreude on the corner of Thea’s lips, he felt a chill run down his spine.
Isabella, who couldn't bear to see him sad and upset, is no longer here.
Alaric looked at him disdainfully, “Nathan, don’t shed crocodile tears. What did you do when your mother was
alive? If you hadn't stubbornly married a woman who couldn’t conceive, would your mother have been so
desperate?”
Nathan held his head and cried in pain, “Mom, I'm sorry.”
The matter was resolved satisfactorily, and Alaric led Mrs. Hill's body away.
Nathan chased after him and asked tremblingly, “Dad, when will Mom's body be cremated? When will the funeral
be held?”
Alaric indifferently threw at him, “You were not qualified to ask.” Then he stepped on the accelerator and zoomed
away.
Nathan was knocked down by the exhaust fumes from Alaric’s luxury car.
“Dad, please give Mom back to me, | beg you...”
When Theo and Thea cout, they saw Nathan squatting by the roadside, crying uncontrollably.

Thea stared at him, suddenly reminded of her past self, when she suffered from a relapse of kidney disease and

crouched on the street, wailing loudly.
Later she found out the reason, which was that after Victoria checked into the hotel, there were inexplicably a
pair of men’s slippers in the room, so Victoria suspected that there was a thief in the room.
Nathan, worried about Victoria's safety, abandoned the severely ill Isabella on the desolate streets. She had
questioned him before, saying, “Why are you concerned about Victoria's safety but not about her illness?”
He callously said, “Kidney disease doesn’t kill people. It's just a matter of enduring a little more suffering.”
Isabella at that time, desperate and helpless, just like Nathan
now.
Thinking about all this, she couldn't sympathize with Nathan's ordeal.
Theo walked up to Nathan and calmly asked him a question, “Nathan, does it hurt to be betrayed and
abandoned by the person you love the most?”
Nathan stared
dat him with his eyes wide open, saying, “I really didn’t expect that Mr. Sanchez, a respectable person, would
actually have feelings for my unwanted old shoes.”
Theo's face flashed a hint of guilt

Fortunately, Nathan casually mentioned his obscure crush and changed the subject. “Have you ever thought that
if one day you make Thea slightly unhappy while seeking revenge on me, she will mercilessly abandon you and
seek revenge on you fiercely? At that time, your outcmay not be as pleasant as mine.”
Theo shook his head and said, “Nathan, you are truly indecisive. Your mother sacrificed her own life to try and
separate you from Victoria. Yet, you callously ignored her wishes and blamed someone else for her death. Even if
your mother has passed away, | believe she will never find peace.”
There was something shattering in Nathan's eyes.
Thea walked over and pulled Theo away, saying, “Why waste so much ttalking to someone like that?”
Theo pouted and said, “Sister, did he say you would disappointin the future?”
