Chapter 2077: Tears

When Roxanne finished reading the will, she wailed uncontrollably. Sorrow flooded her heart as she whispered, "My mother's life was filled with so much agony!" Her teary eyes turned to her husband; she looked like a frightened animal, trembling helplessly. Even Lucian couldn't restrain his tears, which streamed down his cheeks after reading the will. Rage then contorted his features as he gritted his teeth. "We must avenge your mother, darling! Winnie is a monster in human skin!"

Bill remained silent for a long time after reading the will. Hugging Lucian, Roxanne sobbed. "I finally understand what happened to Mom now that I've read her will. I was too young to remember much, but now I know she wasn't a puppet controlled by Grant out of love. To afford my treatment, she obeyed him and cared for young Yosef. She even suspected she was being poisoned and speculated that Winnie directed Yosef to do it. Why were you so foolish, Mom? Why didn't you expose them when you knew? If not for me, perhaps your fate would have been different. Yet, I understand now that I have my own children. I would sacrifice anything for them, even my life." She placed a ring on her finger. "I'm all grown up now, Mom. I have a husband and children. Don't worry. I won't be bullied anymore. I will avenge you. There's no way I'll let Winnie escape justice! I promise!"

She turned to Lucian with a resentful scowl. "Let's visit Winnie now! I refuse to believe she'll remain fearless and never admit to her crime!"

Lucian nodded, glancing at Bill. Bill said, "The will can't be used as evidence, but its contents can bait Winnie into confessing. As for Yosef, he likely won't be charged. He was too young to have committed the crime intentionally."

Even after witnessing countless cases, Bill found himself moved by the sacrifice of Roxanne's mother.

Without hesitation, Lucian and Roxanne set off to find Winnie. Tears, likely her mother's, were spotted on the will Roxanne clutched tightly. Lucian drove as quickly as possible to the mansion on the outskirts. The mansion was silent. Following their failed escape attempt the previous night, Winnie and her children were devising a new plan. They had even locked the iron gate with chains.

Lucian and Roxanne frowned upon alighting from their vehicle. Lucian swiftly called his head bodyguard. "Take down this iron gate!"
