It scared her into a piercing scream.
“Take a good look. Who is this?”

Justin pressed down harder with his foot.
Helen trembled in agony all over.
The man weakly pleaded with her.
“Helen, Attorney Helen, Janet’s situation was all your doing.”
“I can’t take it anymore. Tell the truth.”
“Shut up!”
Helen shrieked in terror.
But seeing Justin’s icy eyes and grim face, she knew it was too late.
Only after confirming Helen’s hand was permanently crippled did Justin lift his foot.

Like the grim reaper pronouncing judgment.

Dragging her mangled hand, she scrambled over and clutched Justin’s pant leg.
“Justin, I was wrong! Truly wrong! I shouldn’t have schemed or lied. But I love you!”

Despair washed over him completely.

The two of them had truly passed the point of no return.
