My brother and Lucas both opened and read them.
Their pupils dilated, expressions changing from disbelief to fury.
Just then, Tiffany arrived holding her phone, still livestreaming.
“Everyone, I really miss Ruby so much, but she-”
Before she could finish, Lucas rushed over and slapped her hard.
“It was all your lies about Ruby, wasn’t it?”
My brother also slapped her.
“You bitch, why didn’t I see through you earlier? Give me back my sister!”
Tiffany’s face swelled up from the slaps. She burst into tears.
“Auntie, save me! They’re hitting me.”
But my mom had also received this email.
She lunged at Tiffany like a madwoman, tearing at her hair as they grappled on the ground.
“Give me back my daughter! Give her back to me!”
“You evil woman, I’ll kill you!”
She straddled Tiffany, slapping her again and again.
Tiffany kept screaming, but no one there tried to help her.
After all, I had set those chat logs to be published online today as well.
Back then, when I was sick, I had no way to fight back against her. If I had posted the chat logs then, no one would have believed me.
But now, I was dead.
People tend to believe the words of the deceased.
She couldn’t win against a dead person.
In the end, Tiffany was beaten so badly she had to be hospitalized. My mom and the others were taken away by the police.

Meanwhile, Dr. Sean stood in front of my tombstone, not having moved an inch since earlier.
I felt so sorry for him. I wanted to caress his face.
He was the only person in this world who had ever truly been good to me.
But I couldn’t touch him.
I was already dead.
He kept vigil by my grave until nightfall, then kissed my tombstone before leaving.
I followed him back to his home.
There, he took out a photo from a drawer. It was of me.
It was from many years ago, when I had encouraged a viewer during one of my livestreams.
Back then, a viewer had commented that they wanted to die.
I had spent the entire night trying to talk them out of it.
In the end, they said: “I won’t die. I’ll try hard to live on.””
That person turned out to be Dr. Sean.
He held the photo to his chest and cried.
“You told me to live on, to go to college, then come find you. But how could you just leave?”
“Ruby…”
The next day, Dr. Sean opened his phone and went to my account.
My follower count had skyrocketed to 20 million. Everyone regretted cursing at me before.
They were all apologizing in the comments of my videos.
The viewer who had made a voodoo doll of me was being viciously attacked online.
I had died, and now everyone cared about me.
How ironic.
At this point, I suddenly wanted to know how my brother and Lucas were doing.
I went home to take a look and found one of them hugging my pillow as he cried.
The other was kneeling in front of my photo, constantly kowtowing.
As for my mom, she had gone insane, constantly muttering about finding me. Then she jumped off a building and killed herself.
Within a few days, my brother had lost two family members. He couldn’t take it and committed suicide too.
Lucas went to the hospital to find Tiffany.
He stabbed her to death.
“If it weren’t for you, I could have been by Ruby’s side in her final days.”
Tiffany coughed up blood, unable to say a word before she died.
Then Lucas was arrested.
It’s good. All the people who were unkind to me received their karma.
I went to check on Dr. Sean again and found that he had gone to see Chloe.
Chloe asked him: “Where’s my big sister?”
Dr. Sean tried hard to stay calm, but his voice still carried a hint of choking up. Tears fell and soaked into the ground.
“Piggy has gone to protect peace.”
At this moment, my soul began to slowly dissipate.
In my final moment of leaving, I heard Dr. Sean say to me: “Remember your promise. In the next life, let’s date!”
I smiled: “Okay.”
I hope in my next life, I can be a healthy Piggy.
Then I’ll date Dr. Sean, and maybe protect peace too.
(The End)
