Deon rushed back to the cruise ship almost non–stop.
He took the phone from his subordinate with trembling hands and pressed the play button. Eugenia’s sinister and complacent laughter came from inside.
“Janette, don’t think you can turn things around by playing the victim. You will never be able to defeat me.
“You do not know yet, do you? My brother asked the doctor to replace your vocal cords with those of a dog, haha.
“From now on, even if you want to sing, you can only sing woof woof woof.”
The big men bursted into laughter.
I seemed to have asked her for something and she laughed even more crazily.
“Leave? And where would you go in such a miserable state? I only trust myself. That’s why
I want to watch our whole family despise you.”
There was a loud vibration and then the phone fell to the ground.
After that, Eugenia let out a shrill cry for help, so my brother and parents broke in the door. And the big men pretended to be my fans in front of them and wanted to avenge me.
My brother was shocked and his face changed drastically.
That day he clearly asked these people one by one, but none of them knew who Janette

My parents were so angry that their faces turned red and they asked my brother to call the police and have Eugenia arrested.
My brother smiled bitterly as he asked, “If she is arrested, will we be implicated as well? “After all, I’m not sure whether she knows that I was the one who hired the murderers who

My mother burst into tears as she asked, “Are we just going to watch Janette die in vain?” My brother grabbed his hair in pain, he admitted, “I don’t know either. Actually, I was the one who deleted the drafts and notes from her phone at the hospital that day.
“I thought that by doing so, I could protect Eugenia’s identity and status, but all I ended up doing was enabling her.
“Those handwritten manuscripts were probably stolen by Eugenia. No wonder she’s been imitating Janette’s handwriting and cursive habits all these years.
“I can’t believe I was so blind!”
My father was heartbroken and gasped with his mouth wide open. “Go, find my Janette back. I want to make it up to her.”
My brother agreed and quickly ordered people to intensify the search for me.
Finally, ten days later, they got news from me.
