Helplessness.
They were all being taught a very harsh lesson at this moment. None of them would ever forget this for the rest of their lives.
“Clara, I hope you’ll learn to behave like a decent human and not look down upon others in your next life. There are just too many things that you still don’t understand about this world,” Adrian suddenly said to Clara, whose face was soaked with
Tears.
She looked at Adrian while on her knees, crying as she said, “I’m sorry, Adrian. I truly am sorry. Please… Please spare my life! I don’t want to die! I don’t want to die!”
Adrian squatted and reached out to wipe her tears. “You’ll never be able to wipe away your actions, nor will you ever be able to take back what you said. So, stop behaving like this and choose to be a better person in your next life.”
“I don’t want to die, Adrian..”
“I know you don’t want to die but you deserve what’s coming. You’ve killed another person so you should pay for your sins with your own death. Otherwise, Danton will surely cause a huge scene in the department. If that happens and Imperial Capital is alerted, your entire family will be executed.
“This is no simple matter. I would’ve done everything I could to let you live if you had confessed to your crimes just a little sooner. Yet, you chose to cut up Simon’s body after you killed him, which was a cruel act. Not even God can save you now.
“1-1 was wrong, but Seth’s the one who did all that. He’s the one who asked for someone to deal with the body!”
“Take her away, Daniel,” Adrian ordered as he stood up.
Daniel stepped forward and asked, “Are we really going to kill her, sir?”
“No! Please, Adrian! Please don’t do it! Kill me instead!” Nathan rushed over and yelled as he knelt before Adrian.
Even Violet was on her knees as she said, “Please, Adrian. Please spare my granddaughter on account of this old woman. I’m sure Seth was the one who instructed her to do all this. Please, Adrian!”
Everyone started to beg for Adrian’s mercy on Clara’s behalf.
Adrian just stood there and furrowed his brows.
Meanwhile, Tracy chose to get down on her knees before Samantha and cried, “Samantha, please. Clara’s your cousin. You have to ask Adrian to spare her life. If you do, I swear the family will be your slave forever!”
Samantha bit her lip and walked over. “Tracy, you know full well that you’re all the ones who caused her to end up in this situation. All of you chose to pamper her so much that she’s become like this. Rather than teaching her how to behave like decent person, she learned to commit acts that go against her good conscience. Just look at yourselves and how you’ve treated me all these years…”
Samantha decided that she was going to get everything off her chest that very day,
Hearing this, Nathan and Tracy were left speechless.
“Ever since Adrian and I got married, you’ve all looked down on me, plotted against me, and insulted me as though I wasn’t a part of the family. So, why should I care about our ties now when I wasn’t extended the same courtesy in the past?
“I did everything with utmost sincerity for all of your sakes, only to
Clara, a convicted murderer, on the basis that we’re family? Is treated like an outsider. Yet, you’re asking me to help
your shame know no bounds?”
Nathan and his wife were rendered even more speechless, while Violet’s face turned bright red.
Samantha shot a snicker at Violet and said, “Hurts, doesn’t it, Grandmother? I doubt you ever expected Adrian to become the great legate during his disappearance over the past seven years, which was why you’ve treated me so poorly. All he had to do was give the order and the Cowells would’ve become the strangest family in Southrive.
Chaute
“But now… All he has to do is give the order and none of you will live to see the next sunrise!”
Violet’s mouth hung slack, and her eyes glazed over. She had no idea what she could say at that moment.
Samantha continued, “Open your eyes. There are still so many things you haven’t come to realize yet.
“I won’t help Clara escape her death sentence. It she isn’t executed, others will accuse my husband of being biased by helping a family member. So, for his sake, I don’t care what happens to Clara.”
Samantha’s decisiveness on the matter caused the Cowells to regret their every action, especially Clara.
Adrian then said, “Take her away.”
“Yes, sir.”
Daniel acknowledged his orders and waved his hand.
Instantly, a few men got Clara on her feet before dragging her into the department’s vehicle, all of which while she was crying her lungs out.
