12:01ย Chapter 85ย Chapter 85ย Seeing the necklace, I froze. Id suspected my troubles were linked to Nicole, but it was just a hunch. There was no hard proof she wasย behind itย Iโd always considered her my sister. Sure, she wanted to snag Chase from me, but I never thought sheโd hate me enough to want me dead.ย It all clicked when she brought out the necklace I wore on my wedding day. That necklace was a precious gift from my grandma. Before my wedding. Mom, influenced by Nicole, withheld my wedding gift, leaving me without even a decent piece of jewelry. Grandma was furious and handed me her own engagement necklace, originally gifted by my grandpa. It wasnโt just any necklace โ this diamond piece was once wom by a queen and was one of Grandmaโs most prized possessions. She wanted her granddaughter to walk down the aisle with dignity.ย I could still picture Grandmaโs gentle hands combing my hair, her eyes filled with hope and pride. She wanted me to pass this necklaceย own through the generations. But less than a day later, I was murdered. And who was the killer? My own sister.ย When the truth hit me, it was like a punch to the gut. Why? Chase had already chosen her and even spent our wedding night with her. Sheโd already won. Why did she go to such extremes? I was her sister!ย Grandmaโs foggy eyes suddenly sharpened with clarity. She grabbed the necklace, examined it closely to make sure it was genuine, and then, despite her frail legs, hobbled toward Nicole with her cane for support.ย โWhereโs your sister? Why did you do this?โ Grandmaโs voice was shaky, and every step was a Herculean effort. However, Nicole was just sitting there with a disdainful sneer. She didnโt budge an inchย โWhy? While I was out there, struggling, she had it allโyour love, the good life. Why did she get everything? Iโm your granddaughter, too. Why were you so blased?โย for lost time? What didย Grandmaโs anger flared. โSince you came back, hasnโt everyone treated you with open arms and tried to make up for lost you do to Amanda? And you dare to ask why?โย Nicole, unfazed, casually fiddled with her nails. โIโm not here to talk about that. I came to ask if youโre handing over the shares or not.โ Clearly, she was done playing the victim and ready to strong arm Grandma with the family away Grandma slammed her cane down forcefully. โIn your dreams. Iโd rather die than give you those shares.โย Nicole smirked as if expecting this. โRelax, Im not planning on killing you. But remember, Amandaโs in my hands, and I can do whatever I wantย โYou wouldnโt dare!โ Grandma slapped Nicole hard across the face. โLet her go. Sheโs your sister!โย Nicole, her smirk icy cold, retorted, โYouโll regret that slap, old lady.โ She then made a call, โitโs me. Cut off one of Amandaโs fingers.โย I was stunned. Wasnโt I supposed to be dead? What was she doing?ย Grandma couldnโt believe Nicoleโs cruelty. โDonโt try to bluff me. If you harm her, how do you expect to face the Kennedy family?โ Just then, Nicoleโs phone buzzed with a message. She opened it and enlarged the photo. There it was, a severed finger, plain as day.ย
