Chapter: 975
But during this time, Maddie had done some reflecting.
She realized that Jonathan's intentions had always been clear.
Bethany was the only person he ever truly wanted.
“Why didn't you tell me sooner? Why did you conceal your true feelings for so many years, making me believe there was a place for me in your heart?" Maddie was oblivious to the lengths Jonathan had gone to for Bethany; she didn't know that he had never wavered in his commitment to her.
"You harbored evil intentions, and that's not on anyone else."
Jonathan had never given Maddie any reason to hope or any promises.
"Yes, I'm the villain here." Maddie laughed bitterly. "To you, I'm the worst, aren't 1?"
She slowly rose from the floor, approached Jonathan, and clutched the rusty bars of her cell.
“But if I can't have you, then you can't have Bethany either. Ha! You two will never be together."
Jonathan's expression darkened. “What do you mean by that?"
"Didn't you know? Bethany's mother died from heart disease. You must have looked into it."
Jonathan remained silent, his expression growing tense when Maddie mentioned Bethany's mother.
"Does Bethany really think her mother died from a heart attack after hearing something shocking?"
Jonathan's fists clenched tightly, his jawline becoming even more pronounced as he gritted his teeth.
Suddenly, Maddie laughed wildly as if she went crazy.
"In fact, it was your mother who instructed the doctor to inject Digoxin into Bethany's mother. 10 mg is a lethal dose for an adult. Her mother was given 5@ mg at once. Of course, she had a heart attack immediately. No one could have saved her!"
Jonathan was stunned. A buzzing filled his ears, and then all sound faded away.
He could only see Maddie's lips moving as she laughed hysterically.
“Impossible... It's impossible..."
He had confronted his father, who had insisted his mother was not involved.
"Jonathan, you should give up the idea of hiding the truth from Bethany. She already knows. She is aware it was your mother's doing. Why do you think she left you back then? Why did she tell you she was interested in Jayson? Have you ever considered that?"
Jonathan didn't respond.
“The hospital's surveillance footage was supposed to be destroyed. I secured a copy in advance and distributed it across several USB flash drives. I even instructed the staff in the monitoring room to act oblivious and sold one of those USBs with the crucial footage to Bethany at a steep price. It captured your mother directing the doctor!"
The USB flash drive.
