Chapter 13
Thinking back to that time, he heard the faint cry when he crushed the bones of the living creature in the bag.
“Dad…”
Eric’s body suddenly began to shake violently, as if a hand was fiercely pulling at his heart.
So, it was he who personally beat his own son to death, stick by stick!
It was him who stepped on and crushed the limbs of his own child, one
foot after another!
It was he who personally ordered to throw their child with Ariana into the mass grave to feed the dogs!
Eric rushed frantically to the Potter’s Field, searching for Oliver’s body.
Oliver had already been eaten by wild dogs, leaving only a small section of his pinky bone.
Eric knelt down on the ground, picked up a small finger bone from the grass, and placed it on his chest.
He cried out to the sky.
“Mandy, I wanted you dead!”
Eric had Mandy taken out of the mental hospital again and kept her with four Tibetan mastiff’s day and night, hanging her life by a thread, enduring the mastiffs‘ bites every day.

He wanted her to live day and night, unable to survive, unable to die.
Three months later.
Eric sat coldly in front of his desk, the low pressure around him making everyone hesitant to approach.
The assistant carefully approached and placed a report in front of Eric.
“Mr. Gibson, Zaiden Morrison from the Morrison family has returned, and the New York socialites will be hosting a banquet for him. Does the Gibson family need to attend?”
Zaiden Morrison?
Who was the ruler who rivaled the Gibson family and almost evenly divided the entire power of New York?
Eric frowned, about to refuse, when his eyes inadvertently fell on the report, and his breath caught in his throat.
In the news, Zaiden got out of the black Lincoln car in the darkness, carefully protecting a girl.
The man’s eyes were as black as night, with depths deeper than the ocean.
And the girl was held in Zaiden’s arms, with only a pair of eyes visible.
At first glance, Eric recognized him immediately.
It was Ariana.
Eric’s hands were shaking uncontrollably, his body tense, and hist breathing becoming rapid.
“Where was the banquet held?”
Chapter 13
At the banquet, Eric turned down all the flirting and flattery, instead searching through the crowd the whole time.
Unfortunately, Ariana was not found.
Even the banquet that was thought to be a welcome party for Zaiden, Zaiden himself did not show up.
After the banquet, Eric waited in the basement.
Sure enough, I saw Ariana.
He rushed over suddenly, grabbed Ariana’s hand, his eyes red and his voice trembling.
“Ariana, I thought you were dead! I thought I would never see you again…”
Ariana was startled and quickly shook off Eric’s hand.
“Who are you?”
Eric suddenly froze.
He looked at Ariana in disbelief.
“Don’t you know me?”
Ariana furrowed her brow, trying hard to remember.
“Should I have known you?”
Ariana lost her memory and completely forgot about him.
Eric swallowed the pain in his throat, struggling.
“Are you my wife, did you forget?”
Ariana’s eyes were clear, filled with confusion.
“Since I was your wife, why did we separate?”
Eric suddenly fell silent.
The reason for leaving was so brutal, how was he going to tell Ariana?
At that moment, Zaiden walked over and affectionately took Ariana’s hand, leading her to the car as if no one else was around.
“Wait for you, how did you come down first?”
Ariana shook Zaiden’s arm, her eyes full of trust and dependence.
“It’s too stuffy up there, I want to go home first.”
Zaiden playfully patted Ariana’s head.
“Okay, let’s go home now.”
