Chapter 3

Linda sneered. Her eyes, which usually sparkled at the sight of William, were now dull and lifeless.

"Tantrums? What a perfect word," she muttered softly. "William, do you even have a heart?"

Linda pointed at Ida, who sat on the couch surrounded by housekeepers. "To you, Ida is always pure, kind, and your savior. But she's not. She's the one who pushed me into the lake. "She's the reason I lost my child! You're defending the person who killed your child-do you know that?"

A tear fell to the floor, catching the light. "And yet, you still think I'm just throwing tantrums." Linda's once-bright eyes were now filled with hatred.

William's frown deepened as he listened. Ida, who had just finished treating her wound and regained her composure, rushed to defend herself.

"Linda, stop lying! This is the Wilson residence, not a place for your baseless accusations. I've always been honest and upright. I don't resort to underhanded tactics, nor do I need to.

"You fell into the lake yourself because you wanted to gain William's sympathy. How could you accuse me of pushing you? How can you lie so easily?

"I have nothing against you, and I don't want anything from you. What could I possibly gain from pushing you? And if I didn't like you, I'd just avoid you. Why would I risk committing a crime?"

Ida turned to William and added, "William, you can't believe her lies."

William remained silent as he fell deep in thought. The housekeepers surrounding Ida glared at Linda as if trying to bore holes into her.
