Chapter 623

Bianca Semona lunged at Vivian Laurent.

Vivian sidestepped and tripped her with a swift kick.

Bianca struggled to get up, but Vivian pinned her down with one hand.

"Bianca, have you lost your mind? How is your mother's death my fault?"

"It is you! You killed my mother! You hate me, so you want me to be an orphan!"

Bianca screamed hysterically. Losing both parents in just months had shattered her.

"Your mother took her own life. Who suffered the most after your father died? Your mother! And you? Instead of being there for her, you spent your time harassing me."

Vivian's words froze Bianca in place.

She remembered her mother's last unanswered call. When she called back, all she got was a text: "I'm too tired." Soon after, the hospital delivered the devastating news.

"It's all because of you! If you hadn't killed my father, my mother wouldn't have committed suicide!"

Bianca thrashed wildly, but Vivian held her firmly.

"Vivian! You murderer! I'll never let you get away with this!"

Vivian smirked. If Bianca had spent more time with her mother, perhaps the tragedy could have been avoided.

Security guards rushed over at the commotion.

"Keep an eye on her." Vivian handed Bianca over and walked away, getting into her car.

Ethan Roscente had called earlier, saying he couldn't join her due to work. With everything calm lately, Vivian hadn't thought much of it.

Bianca watched Vivian drive off and shoved the guards away.

"Let me go! I'm calling the police!"

She didn't even see her mother one last time before chasing after Vivian in her car.

Why should Vivian walk away unscathed? Bianca had nothing left to lose—she'd drag her down with her if she had to.

As she drove, Vivian frowned in thought.

Bianca's mother's suicide didn't add up.

From what she knew, the woman had been mentally stable and physically healthy. Though deeply devoted to her husband, she wasn't the type to follow him in death.

And she had a daughter. The funeral hadn't even been held yet. With no one to care for Bianca, why would she kill herself so abruptly?
