?Chapter 859:


    Ellie wasn’t in the mood for small talk. “We’ll catch upter,” she said quickly, ending the call.


    Kaiden frowned and gave Ellie a look, suspecting that the recent caller was Carole. So, Carole had actually reached out to Ellie herself.


    “Are you nning to meet with Carole?” Ellie posed the question to the Lambert family’s siblings.


    Katharine and Daniel turned their gazes to Glenn. With a shake of his head, Glenn made his stance clear. When Carole returned the gold locket to them, she was no longer considered part of their family. He was well aware that Carole would only seek to benefit herself if they visited her!


    With a nod, Ellie decided to visit Carole with Kaiden.


    As she turned to leave, a familiar figure caught her eye. A worn-out woman was being escorted by a nurse.


    It was Demi!


    Demi was here to confirm the identity of the dead person.


    When Houston got the news about Litzy’s passing, he was nning to go, but then his pregnant mistress suddenlyined of a stomachache. Thinking of his unborn child as a priority over Litzy, who had already passed away, he decided to send Demi instead.


    “Are you Demi, Litzy’s daughter?” The man in charge sized Demi up, scrutinizing her closely.


    Demi just nodded in response.


    After Demi signed the cremation papers, the man silently handed her an envelope.


    Puzzled, Demi opened it to find a check for ten million dors!


    Before she could question him, he was already gone.


    A thought struck Demi, prompting her to call the person who had asked her to identify the body.

    “Hi, this is Demi, Litzy’s daughter. I’d like to know who was involved in the ident with my mom. I’m really sorry for any trouble she caused. I’d like to apologize and make it right with the victim.”


    The person quickly texted her the details of the ident.


    To her surprise, the name Ellie popped up—someone she knew well. ording to the information, Ellie wasn’t injured.


    Demi hadn’t been very close to Litzy. Yet, in that moment, she came to a painful realization that thest person in the world who truly loved her was now gone. Litzy had epted ten million dors to kill Ellie.


    Ironically, her mother, the only one who loved her, was gone, while Ellie was unscathed.


    In the ward, Carole’s two fashion circle friends dropped by for a visit.


    “Carole, you’re so courageous. Who would’ve thought you’d jump in to save someone you didn’t know?”


    “Exactly, Carole. I couldn’t have done what you did.”


    Wrapped in casts and bandages, Carole offered a faint smile and began to rify, “Not exactly a stranger…”
