“Nicotine injection can cause the illusion of a heart attack. But the statute of limitations has passed, and the
Anderson family is gone. No one will prosecute.” Cher was not afraid to confess because no one could overturn
the case.
In the light rain, Quinlyn felt Cher’s face becoming blurry and quietly asked, “Is there more?”
Cher didn’t respond. Her silence was a defensive rejection.
At that moment, Zane spoke up, “My grandpa Caden also died from nicotine poisoning.”
Joseph was taken aback. He had heard that Zane was exceptionally devoted, caring for Cher like a daughter and
treating Caden with great respect, visiting his grave every year, rain or shine.
“Why?” he blurted out.
“Maybe | couldn't stand to see him suffer,” Zane said calmly, his answer almost cold and cruel, enough to earn
public condemnation in a courtroom.
But the next second, Quinlyn called him out, “You're lying,” that wasn’t the answer.
This left Zane stunned. He thought of his childhood, being carried by his grandpa to work.
All they had was a tricycle and a small stove. Grandpa had skilled hands, able to fix everything, even if he wasn’t
literate.
He would take Zane to school, fondly patting his head, saying, “Fixing things isn’t a skill. Understanding
knowledge leads to greater achievements.”
Zane studied hard, never disappointing his grandpa, but sadly, before finishing elementary school, Caden
accidentally fell.
He hit his head, triggering dementia. His memories faded slowly, and his behavior becuncontrollable,
leading to incontinence.
Zane often returned hfrom school to find their place in disarray, everything they had gradually depleted.
Thankfully, he was old enough to help Caden bathe and handle chores. But during winter, there were fewer
clothes, and many nights were spent hungry.
His distance from Cher began then.
Before Caden lost his mind, he often invited Cher to stay for dinner, hoping to prevent her from encountering her
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtfather. He knew that once the abuser struck, it would happen repeatedly.
After the change in situation, he could no longer help her or let her see the chaos and incontinence his grandpa
was suffering.
When a young man likes someone, he often feels an inexplicable sense of pride, yet such love also brings
courage.
That was Zane’s first ttaking a life. His hand trembled while lifting the syringe. After it was done, he fled with
Caden, moving away from there.
He later visited the hospital secretly and saw Cher’'s mom moved into a private room. Cher then got into a luxury
car, and knowing she would be okay, he left.
Seasons changed, and Caden’s condition worsened to the point he couldn't be left alone.
Zane dropped out of school, but how could a teenager care for an elderly person? He collapsed under the weight
of daily hunger and fatigue.

deeply.
As she turned to leave, Zane heard her say, “It's better this way, to avoid suffering. It’s hard for both young and
old

The first day of the new year had terrible weather. A cold wind blew in, chilling his hands and feet.
Quinlyn looked at the two people across from her, sensing they seemed cold, their white faces were
expressionless, as if far away from her.
The warm scene of a picnic with fish in the woods was abruptly cut from their minds, as if it never existed.
