Seth shook his head furiously. “You’re lying to me! You must be lying!”
Ashley was rooted to the spot in shock. “E–even if he’s not your biological son, all those years you’ve spent together and your love for him is
real”
She grabbed Harry’s sleeve. “Mr. Garner, please don’t kick him out! He’s lived with you for more than 20 years!”
“Get away!”
Seth suddenly jumped to his feet and pushed Ashley aside. “It’s all because of you!
“If you hadn’t sown discord between us, things between Lana and I wouldn’t have turned out this way!
“Get lost! Get as far away from me as possible!”
Ashley stumbled a few steps backward and bit her hip hard. “What about our child then?”
Seth suddenly froze.
Suddenly, he hanged violently at Ashley and straddled her. He punched her abdomen relentlessly.
“It’s all your fault!” he yelled as he continued to beat her.
“I thought that I didn’t love Luna, but I was wrong!

“When I saw that she was going to marry someone else, I finally understood that I can’t be without her!
“It’s all your fault! You made me lose Luna!”
Ashley begged for mercy, but Seth did not seem to hear her. He punched her even more forcefully.
Soon, a pool of bright red blood began to spread out around Ashley.
Seth slowly stopped when he saw the striking puddle of blood. “It’s gone. It’s alright now. Get lost right now!”
Everyone was shocked by what he had done. It took them a long time to react and call the police.
When the police arrived, they escorted him into the police car at once.
Harry took a deep breath and handed the USB drive to the police. “Please also investigate Ryan’s car accident.”
When the police had left with Seth, Harry slumped into a chair and looked at Ryan as he said, “I realized early on that Seth wouldn’t amount to anything. I’ve been planning to hand the company over to you for years.”
He laughed bitterly. “I guess things turned out for the best. I couldn’t teach him properly. Let the law teach him instead.”
The news came after a few months.
Seth was sentenced to ten years for attempted murder and intentional injury.
Ashley lost her mind after her miscarriage and was sent to an asylum.
The Garners didn’t just rise from the ashes with the ten billion–dollar investment from my father, they even rose to new heights. Naturally, my family benefited greatly as well.
I suddenly understood that it was okay to make mistakes. All one had to do was choose again.
