Look at the couple! They’re a perfect match!”
“Absolutely! Vanessa is a million times better than that Eva! If it weren’t for her constant pestering, Vanessa and Derek would probably have a few kids by now!”
Vanessa is so loyal. When Derek’s company ran into trouble, Eva was the first to run away. If Vanessa hadn’t used her savings to help him, he wouldn’t be the CEO of a listed company today!*
The classmates kept showering praise on them, and even my close friend, Lily Thompson, was all over Vanessa, acting super friendly.
Vanessa, you really have a good heart. I must have been blind to be friends with that
snake!”
Vanessa smiled sweetly, playing along. “Oh, Lily, don’t say that. Maybe Eva had her reasons…”
Lily scoffed, “What reasons? Don’t forget, she’s the one who ruined your hand! I thought she was just jealous because she loved Derek so much. Who knew she’d bolt when things got tough?
Honestly, a woman like her deserves to drown in a sewer, and no one would care!”
Vanessa’s eyes flickered for a moment, but she kept her smile intact.
Let’s just enjoy the reunion and not bring her up. It’ll only ruin the mood.”
Lily agreed eagerly, “Right! No more talking about that wretched woman! Everyone, if you see va, make sure to give her a good beating for Vanessa!”
All the classmates chimed in, united in their hatred, as if I were the common enemy. Just as the laughter filled the air, a few police officers walked in and took Derek away.

He believed Vanessa had nothing to do with the corpse and was hiding that fact to protect her from the police.
She was so fragile. An interrogation would surely scare her to tears.
Watching Derek defend Vanessa only stoked my anger, but soon I fell silent.
The police placed a photo of the corpse in front of him.
They had reconstructed the head and face of the body, which was sealed inside the statue.
“We’ve restored the victim’s appearance. Take a look and see if you recognize her.”
Derek leaned back in his chair, arms crossed, clearly impatient.
When he heard the officer’s question, he rolled his eyes and lazily picked up the photo.
But as soon as he saw the face in the picture, his expression changed completely.
He shot up from his chair, his legs scraping loudly against the floor.
His eyes widened in shock, and his voice trembled as he exclaimed, “Eva?! How is that even
possible?!”
