Chapter 214

After closing the door behind her, Arabella silently moved towards Beatrice’s bed, studying her aged face. A cruel smile spread across her lips as she touched Beatrice’s oxygen tube.

“Granny, you can’t blame me for this. After all, you’re the one who pushed me to this point. I never wanted to hurt you, but you gave me no choice”

With a smile still on her face, she reached out to remove Beatrice’s oxygen tube.
