Chapter 419 Someone Had Spoken to Liam

"If you had only agreed to the surgery earlier, I would never have dropped everything to come back. Liam and the others wouldn't be dead!" Maxwell's words struck Charmaine like a barrage of sharp stones, each one hitting with brutal force and stealing her breath away.

"Wh-what? I didn't know..." she stammered, her voice quivering as panic seized her chest.

"Of course you didn't," Maxwell mocked. "You always play the helpless victim, pretending to be pitiful just to get sympathy. All for your own selfish vanity, and in the end, you wasted lives for nothing!"

Even Alec, the morally upright prosecutor and her brother, added, "No matter how you look at it, Charmaine is indirectly responsible for the deaths of Maxwell's teammates."

With everyone pointing fingers at her, Charmaine, barely able to sit up, felt herself branded as a murderer.

Maxwell's rage was boiling; he dragged her to Liam's funeral, forced her to kneel before his black-and-white photo.
