Chapter 4

Joseph held the divorce agreement I had just given him, his eyes bloodshot as he looked at me:

"Olivia, are you serious? Do you really want to divorce me?"

"Of course," I answered without hesitation.

Hearing my response, Joseph stood there looking somewhat lost.

I found it a bit amusing inside—he probably thought I loved him so much that I'd never divorce him, even if it killed me.

But he didn't know that a person's heart can be completely broken.

Before Joseph could speak, Amelia's sarcastic voice rang out:

"Joseph, I told you she's moved on! Otherwise, how could she destroy your wedding photos and insist on divorcing you no matter what!"

"Joseph, a woman like her doesn't deserve you! Yesterday, she even stuffed a disfigured corpse into our forensic department, claiming it was your father!"

She looked at me smugly: "I've brought the body here now. I'm going to expose your lies right to your face!"

With that, Samuel's body was carried up by her people and exposed to the sunlight.

How could I allow Samuel's body to be humiliated like this?

Unable to bear it any longer, I said to her: "Amelia, what are you doing? Take the body back right now!"

"Why are you so anxious? Could this man be the one you cheated with? Are you afraid of being exposed, so you deliberately used his corpse to disgust Joseph?"

I was shocked by her ridiculous accusation. I could only say to Joseph: "Joseph, believe me, this is really..."

"Shut up! You think I can't recognize my own father? Olivia, since you care so much about this corpse, I'm going to destroy it!"

As he spoke, he actually pulled out his service weapon and fired directly at the body.

Samuel's body was riddled with several holes from his shots, blood and flesh flying everywhere—it was horrifying to see.

"No! Stop it, Joseph!"

Samuel treated me like his own daughter. During this operation, if he hadn't shielded me, I would have been the one taken hostage by the criminals!

How could I let his body be destroyed and humiliated like this after his death!

I tried desperately to hold Samuel's body, not wanting it to be damaged any further.

But I was held back tightly by the people Amelia brought, unable to move.

"You can't! He's your father! You'll regret this!"

Joseph had gone completely mad at this point, bullets continuously hitting the body. Everyone present closed their eyes.

Just then, Timothy's furious shout rang out:

"Stop! Joseph, what are you doing!"

"How can you treat your father's body like this!"
