He knew he’d messed up this time–but the fact that no one blamed him only made it more unsettling. It felt like everyone was naturally choosing whatever situation benefitted them most, and no one cared about Yunice’s sacrifice.

When Owen’s pupils trembled and his face twisted in painful hesitation, Elsie took his hand and said sincerely, “Owen, you did the right thing! Wyatt was born rotten, and Morgan just had a bad reputation. Yunice refused to follow your lead–she was bound to suffer for it sooner or later!”

Owen gave a half–hearted nod. It looked like he heard her… but also like he didn’t

Then Lily sat down with a worried look and muttered. “Yunice is one stubborn kid What I’m wood of its she really tries to press charges against you?”

Owen replied, “She’s got no proof. The police won’t believe her”

“But what if she goes to Wyatt for help?” Lily said anxiously. “Forget the lack of evidence–Wyatt oldaniy fals have you locked up!”

Owen froze; anxiety flashed across his face.

Elsie clenched her palm, her face twisting with jealousy. Hyatt. It’s always att! How is Vince this lucky She’s Willen für ut somehow she still finds someone to rely on–someone who helps her turn everything around!

Lily was still racking her brain for ways to help Owen, when she suddenly thought of something “Owen, how did you es find Yunice!”

Owen’s expression grew uneasy. He didn’t want to answer.

Lily grew impatient. “Come on, tell me!”

Owen hesitated, stammered, and then finally gave up pretending “I hired someone to pull off the cemetery theft

Afraid Lily would be furious, he quickly added, “But I didn’t touch my dad’s grave!”

Lily froze, needing a few seconds to piece it together.,

Far from angry at Owen’s disobedience, she actually seemed relieved, like a weight had been lifted, “So that’s what happened… Everyone’s got a weakness, something they can’t bear…

Then, calmly, Lily said, “Yunice’s weakness is her father’s grave.”

As long as she kept Will’s grave under her watch, she could control Yunice; Yunice wouldn’t dare take things further.

Owen and Elsie both got what Lily meant, but neither of them said anything–neither wanted to be the bad guy.

After all, they were the children; they couldn’t be the ones to disrespect their father’s resting place.

But Lily could say it. Cripping the armrest and frowning, she muttered. “The Saunders family’s been going through one storm after another lately… It’s gotta be the family tomb acting up… Owen, tomorrow, get someone to check your dad’s grave. If something’s wrong, maybe we should move him somewhere else and change our luck.”

Owen met Lily’s eyes, and it was clear there was more to her words.

Sure, the grave might be moved–but only he would know where it ended up.

He fell silent for a moment before giving a quiet nod.

If this was what it took to keep Yunice in line, then so be it.

The sooner, the better. Owen made up his mind right then and there. “I’ll take care of it now

Lily grunted in acknowledgment. Once Owen left, she slowly closed her eyes, putting on a sorrowful, self–sacrificing expression. “Will, don’t blame me for this. I’m doing it for the whole Saunders family. I just hope you can really keep Yunice under control… because I don’t know what I’ll do if she doesn’t listen.

As she said that, the hand resting on the armrest trembled nonstop. It was the same hand that had held the knife earlier- almost slicing off Yunice’s finger.

She knew she was being biased, but she couldn’t help it. Between Yunice and Elsie, she could only choose one. She couldn’t bear to see Elsie’s fingers broken.
