Chapter 778

Zoe Chamberlain slammed the door shut with force, deciding to call a locksmith first thing tomorrow.

She collapsed onto the sofa, Vivian's words echoing relentlessly in her mind like a cursed incantation.

She wasn't born evil. Each accusation stabbed her heart like a dagger.

She understood everything Vivian said. But she had too many reasons beyond her control.

Her phone screen suddenly lit up, playing a video automatically.

The emaciated little girl in the footage wailed with heartbreaking intensity.

"Mommy...Daddy...It's all my fault..."

The childish sobs pierced Zoe's heart like needles.

She tried to turn off her phone, but the screen remained frozen.

Zoe hurled the phone against the wall with violent force.

As the screen shattered, the living room TV flickered to life.

The massive screen displayed the little girl's mutilated face in horrifying clarity.

"Ahhh!"

Zoe grabbed a vase and smashed it into the television.

Shards of glass scattered everywhere, but the crying continued through the speakers.

The neighbor's knocking only amplified her agitation.

"Get out! All of you, get out!"

In the suffocating silence, she heard phantom voices screaming from every direction:

"Murderer!"
