The next day,I took the Lily’s favourite flowers and Daisy’s favourite snacks and went to the cemetery.
But as soon as I arrived at the cemetery,I saw a familiar figure.
I don't know when Ethan appeared in front of Lily's grave.When he saw me coming,he quickly ran up to me.
"Clara,I finally found you..."
He held my hand."Come on,let's go home together,okay?"
I coldly shook off his hand."Ethan,didn't you see the divorce papers?It's over between us."
Ethan shook his head, he seemed so humble that he was almost ready to kneel down.
"No,Clara.I can explain.I can make up for my mistakes.I just beg you don't leave me..."
I looked at him coldly."How did you find this place?"
Before Ethan could answer,Sophie appeared beside me.
"I helped Ethan find it."
Seeing Sophie's face again,I felt like tearing her apart.
Sophie was a somewhat famous influencer with a large number of fans.It wasn't difficult for her to find out my whereabouts.
Moreover,there were only a few cemeteries in the city,so it wasn't hard to find Lily's grave either.
Sophie smiled gently at me."I'm sorry,darling.I came here without warning you in advance."
"But I really couldn't bear to see Ethan being so depressed all the time anymore.He just can’t focus on his work at all."
"I did it all for his own good."
Ethan hung his head and said softly,"Thank you, Sophie deari."
I sneered."Ethan,if you came here to show me how affectionate you and Sophie are in front of Lily and me,then get lost."
Ethan looked up suddenly and explained in a panic,"No..."
"I just came to see Lily..."
"If it weren't for Sophie here helping me these past few days,I wouldn't have found this place.I just wanted to thank her..."
Ethan looked at me pleadingly and knelt down in front of me.
"Clara,I know I deserve to die.I'm the one who killed Lily."
"But can you give me another chance?Let me pay for Lily with the rest of my life."
"Don't get a divorce,okay?"
Sophie quickly stepped forward to help Ethan up,but he didn’t move at all.
She looked at me."Darling,even though it was Ethan's fault,he didn't do it on purpose.He didn't know that Lily's condition had worsened.Why can't you forgive him...!"
With a slap,Sophie's face turned to the side again.
This time,I used even more force than when I slapped her before,and Sophie's face swelled up immediately.
But when I saw her face,I could think of what I had saw in the surveillance video.
My Daisy was tortured by her for a full twenty minutes!
I raised my hand again and slapped her other cheek.
At the same time,I grabbed her hair and despite her screams,forced her to kneel in front of Lily's grave and confess her guilt to Lily and Daisy.
After doing all this,I felt a little more relieved.
I looked coldly at Sophie's embarrassed appearance.Her hair was messy,and her face was red and swollen.She no longer looked like the innocent girl she pretended to be.
Sophie seemed not to have expected me to do this.The mask she had always worn cracked,and she screamed,"Clarissa Jones!I won't let you get away with this!"
Ethan,however,just stood there in a daze,watching our argument and didn’t step forward to stop it.
I sneered,lay the things I brought for Lily and Daisy on their tombstone,and turned to leave the cemetery.
As I passed by Ethan,I whispered,"Ethan,you're such a coward."
"Sign the divorce papaers.Otherwise,just based on the fact that you cheated,I can win the divorce and make you leave with nothing."
Ethan came to his senses and quickly stepped forward to help Sophie up.
He looked at me in disbelief."Clarissa,when did you become like this?"
I smiled slightly.Ethan probably never noticed.
I've always been like this.
It's just that I used to restrain my temper a lot for Ethan's sake.
My little sister and I had looked after each other since we were children.If I didn't have a bit of a temper,how could I protect her well?
I looked at Sophie in his arms."Sophie,don't worry.I won't let you get away with it either."
Before leaving,I threatened Ethan again,"Ethan,I'll only give you two days to sign the papars and then give them to my lawyer."
"Otherwise,the evidence that you cheated will not only be taken to court, it would also be sent to your workplace."
Sophie,however,shouted at me in a trembling voice,obviously very angry,"Ethan and I are innocent!You won't have any evidence!"
I smiled."Really?"
"Then let's see if you have the courage to stick to your stories."
