Chapter 8
“Honey, we’ve known each other since we were kids. Do you really think I’m that kind of a bad person?”
When my parents noticed the argument, they intervened.

“Adam, don’t be so quick to assume Kellie is responsible for this,” they said.
“Kellie is the daughter I raised with my own hands, and I still trust her character.”
Despite their words, Adam remained doubtful.
He mentally linked every past event like pieces of a puzzle.
When they first brought Amy home, he genuinely felt sorry for his biological sister, who had endured so much hardship living outside.
That was why he always stood by her, reassuring her not to be afraid.
Amy had always leaned on him heavily.
In her eyes, Adam was the most reliable person.
She would never deceive him, not even once.
But what did he do? He allowed the horrific murder of his sister, who had placed so much trust in him.
Hurt repeatedly and ultimately shattered by betrayal.
From the start until now, he was stunned to realize that every vow he’d made to protect Amy had disappeared the moment he confronted Kellie.

Even when Amy was being mistreated, insulted, and falsely accused, he spoke harshly, completely blocking her from getting help.
He had promised to protect the sister he had once saved!
With this thought, he couldn’t stop himself from slapping his own face.
Then, he shouted at Kellie, “Kellie! Did you really think your plots would go unnoticed?”
In a rage, Adam slapped Kellie repeatedly.
Kellie whimpered, pleading with her parents for assistance, but they were too intimidated by Adam’s anger to step in.
“You bitch! You say you love me, but you’re involved with someone else! If it weren’t for your constant meddling, Amy wouldn’t have been pushed
away!”
After being hit, Kellie erupted into crazed laughter, her eyes gleaming with insanity.
“You’re the one who doubted her. What does that have to do with me?
“I never made you blindly support everything I did. You chose to harm her on your own.
“And you believed every lie I told–is that my fault?
“Now that the truth is out, you finally see you were deceived.
“You’re not mad that I killed her–you’re mad that I cheated on you!
“You’re disgusting!”
Adam exploded in rage, hitting her, slapping her a few more times, and even kicking her to the ground

“You’re truly wicked, using such brutal methods to kill her.”
As Adam spoke, he seized Kellie by the hair and dragged her toward the basement.
Despite being covered in blood, Kellie only laughed maniacally.
A few moments later, the assistant entered the living room with a man whose legs had been broken.
“You think you’re so tough? Go ahead, kill me! I’m your legal wife–if you end up in jail, I’ll just spend all your money…”
That day, my parents contacted the police, and Kellie was taken to the hospital.
Adam was temporarily held for assault.
At that moment, my father finally realized that his biological son couldn’t compare to his adopted daughter.
With a heavy heart, he began to recount everything he had witnessed on the show…
Before Kellie’s injuries had fully recovered, she was handcuffed and escorted into a police vehicle.
My parents followed, devastated, trying to stop the officers.
“Ms. Kellie Meade is suspected of hiring someone for a murder. We need to bring her in for questioning,” the police explained.
As they watched her being taken away, my parents broke down, sobbing uncontrollably.
Adam had fractured Kellie’s ribs and nose, and her body was covered in bruises
Chapter &
Because of their marital relationship and the case being classified as a domestic dispute, Adam was detained for several months due to Kellie’s strong insistence.
That night marked an unparalleled peak in Kellie’s fame.
Naturally, she disappeared from the public eye shortly after.
Kellie received a death sentence. The hidden horrors she perpetrated were far more extensive than what was unveiled on the show.
Once Adam was freed, he reached out to Kyle to assist in organizing a ritual ceremony with spiritual practitioners.
He severed all connections with his parents, unable to forget the day they called the police, accusing him of being insane.
They had even coerced Kellie into refusing to sign a reconciliation
agreement.
After Adam moved out, his parents were burdened by relentless anxiety every day.
When my mother discovered that Kellie had conspired with outsiders to poison and try to kill them, she had a heart attack.
She spent over three months in the ICU, and soon after being released, she went to visit Kellie in prison.
What was said during that visit remains a mystery, but she suffered another heart attack right then and there.
Sadly, this time it was fatal–she stopped breathing entirely in the ambulance.
As for my father, he spent his days drinking, cursing Adam for being heartless, robbing him of his status, and giving him only a small amount
of money.
Nobody anticipated that he would die from choking on his own vomit.
Kyle turned down the money Adam offered and decided to scale the mountain by himself, taking my spirit along with him.
With a soft gesture, he summoned me to his side.
He grinned and lit a candle in my honor.
“I heard you’re fond of mountain climbing, so I wanted you to experience this,” he said.
“What do
starting!”
you think? We’re at Mount Hood, and the sunrise is just
I beamed as I watched the sun rise over the horizon.
My previously worn–out appearance transformed into something youthful and radiant.
“Thank you. It’s stunning!” I replied.
