Chapter 48

Henry took the card and inserted it into the computer that was connected to the large screen behind him.

Cries of “Henry” rang out as below the stage, the members of the Larson family began to feel anxious.

The guests were also confused and did not know what was going on.

“Henry!” Frowning, Harley rushed forward and Henry’s arm. “Don’t be rash! The video has nothing to do with what happened today.”

However, when he met Henry’s bleak eyes, he couldn’t help but be a little distracted.

“What happened to you?” he thought.

The memory card was being loaded.

Henry looked at Harley with regret in his eyes. “Harley, what’s the matter with us? How have we treated Maddie in the past eight months? Do you truly not feel any guilt? Blood also flows within her body, same as us!”

Harley took a deep breath and let go of his hand. “I know. Have you seen what’s in the card?” Henry shut his eyes and gritted his teeth as the video started to play.

Below, Layla and Thomas also looked at the screen, wondering what had happened last night. Curiosity filled Winslet’s eyes. She couldn’t remember anything about the night before.

The guests discussed amongst themselves as they immersed themselves.

Even the parents and elders of the Moore family were watching offstage. They wanted to see what trick the Larson family was playing.

At the beginning of the video, a group of men and women were frolicking in the reservoir.

The people below the stage found it slightly funny that so many people had been gathered to watch something like this, However, as time went by, lightning and thunder began to sound in the video as heavy rain poured down from the skies.

The scene felt unreal in the rain.

The water in the reservoir began to surge and ebb, and waves constantly slapped the edge.

Everyone in the room began to feel nervous.

Regina couldn’t help but grip Benjamin, who stood next to her, tightly. “Benjamin, last night…”

In the video, the inflatable boat turned over, and several people began to cry for help in the water.

Exclaiming in surprise, Regina’s face turned extremely pale.

The others began to worry about the people in the video.

Suddenly, a person pulled another figure to the shore.

Benjamin’s eyes turned red at the sight.

It was Madeline!
