Queen Revenge

Miley’s words made my heart skip a beat, and I couldn’t help but think of what Nancy Richter had said earlier, when she said that there was a good chance that Tina Deross had passed away.

I didn’t believe it at the time, but Miley’s words made me a little skeptical.

I walked out, Miley was still talking to the cat, she looked up and saw me, her clear eyes flashed with surprise, and she called out to me in a good-natured manner, “Auntie Two.”

She probably couldn’t change her mind for a while and got used to it, so she called me Auntie Two.

“Miley, what are you doing here.” I asked tentatively, “Where’s mom? Why haven’t I seen her, is she feeling better?”

Mentioning Tina Deross, Miley’s eyes crossed a touch of sadness, her eyes were dark, shook her head and said, “Mom is not good, she sleeps every day, and dad still won’t let me see her, second aunt, I miss mom, I want her to get up and talk with me, but I can’t wake her up, and dad said that mom has gone to a very faraway place, and isn’t that place … called heaven?”

Miley is seven years old, and she doesn’t understand the meaning of death, but she doesn’t know nothing about it.

Her words reaffirmed the suspicion in her mind.

I asked, “Where did you meet mom?”

Miley lifted her finger and pointed to the warehouse that the Richter family had abandoned for years, “Mommy was there, and I saw Daddy visit Mommy there a lot.”

She hugged the kitten, her eyes covered with sadness, “Second Auntie, is Mommy never going to wake up again?”

Miley’s words left me dumbfounded and I didn’t know how to respond.

How can the dead come back to life.

Without waiting for me to answer, Miley said with red eyes, “Mommy won’t be coming back, she’s gone far away to a place that’s beautiful and without pain.”

Tina Deross has terminal cancer and must have endured a lot of illness.

I stroked Miley’s head and softly reassured, “Your mommy will always love you no matter where she goes.”

“Uh-huh.” Miley nodded heavily.

The maid in charge of Miley’s care called Miley for piano practice, and Miley put down the cat, politely greeted me and went upstairs to the piano room to practice.

The sound of the piano rang out and filled the air for a long time, and the melodious and low music contained Miley’s thoughts of his mother, making people’s hearts follow a sour smell.

I glanced towards the warehouse, I had passed by it many times before when I lived in the Richter family but never went inside, I heard that it was full of unused waste and had a golden hair bolted to the door to watch, would Ben Richter really put Tina Deross in here?

If Miley hadn’t said it herself, I wouldn’t have thought of it.

I stood at the door and looked around, the golden hair at the door wagged its tail at me in greeting, so I walked over to it, the door wasn’t locked, it was just pulled shut, and opened with a gentle push.

Once inside, a musty smell came over him, mixed with a strange herb smell that was particularly unpleasant.

The warehouse was large, both sides were piled with abandoned furniture with some messy things, but in the middle there was a path about ten centimeters wide and very clean.

I followed the trail all the way to the second floor, where the smell of herbs grew stronger and there was a little faint stench that was sickening.

I rubbed my chest and tried to hold my breath as well.

There were three rooms on the second floor, and the doors were locked, so there was no way to get in.

And with three locks on the door, one of which has no dust on it and should have been touched by hand often, I’m certain that if Ben Richter really did hide someone here. Then it must be in here.

Tina Deross has not been heard from since she gave birth to a sick child, and it’s been half a year since then, and it’s as if Tina Deross has evaporated into thin air, not knowing whether she’s alive or dead.

I looked around, there was no other entrance, I couldn’t get in without a key, there was no sunlight coming in, it felt eerie, and with that stench, it sent chills down one’s back, a feeling of being in a morgue.

Just as I was thinking about how to go in and see what was going on, there were footsteps coming from downstairs, and by the sound of it, it was made by leather shoes on the ground, and I immediately thought of Ben Richter, and as I listened to the sound getting closer and closer, I immediately ducked aside in a hurry.

The footsteps came closer and I saw a pair of men’s shoes through the gap, my eyes shifted upward and the man in the dark suit was who else but Ben Richter.

He walked over to where I was standing a moment ago, a bag of black stuff in his hand, and his eyes looked from side to side before he took out his key and unlocked the door.

As the door opened, the putrid odor intensified, and I barely managed to hold back my vomit.

I hurriedly covered my mouth and nose to not make a sound.

Ben Richter went in carrying something black, and I eased my footsteps and tiptoed closer to the doorway, just in time to see Ben Richter crouching beside one of the beds through the open door, his back to me.

There in that bed lay none other than Tina Deross.

Tina Deross lay serenely in a large red wedding dress, her calm face covered in delicate makeup, giving, however, not a sense of beauty, but a sense of horror.

No amount of sophisticated makeup can hide the dead white color of Tina Deross’ face.

Tina Deross is indeed dead.

You could smell the putrid odor of her from some distance.

I can’t figure out why Ben Richter hid people and didn’t publicize Tina Deross’ death when she was dead.

Ben Richter is taking what looks like an herb out of his bag and rubbing it on Tina Deross, who’s lying on the bed; it’s supposed to be an embalming herb, except that the best herb can’t keep a corpse from ever decomposing.

Ben Richter wiped the herbs while his mouth said, “Today is the day Walker Richter married Susan Su, Tina, did you hear that, Walker Richter, he’s married, he doesn’t have you in his heart at all, he could have married Bella Hill, married Alva Hill, or even Susan Su, but never you, you should be damned, the only person in this world who loves you is me.”

It turns out that Ben Richter has known for a long time that the person Tina Deross has in her heart is Walker Richter.

Ben Richter held Tina Deross’s hand, his eyes were gentle, “Tina, I just went to see our son, he’s fine, don’t worry, I’ll find the best doctor to heal him, by the way, I named our son An’er, the meaning of peace and quiet, you must like it very much right.”

Ben Richter talked to himself the entire time, very patiently rubbing Tina Deross’ body, and not minding the putrid smell of Tina Deross at all despite being so close, even kissing her cheek.

The only way a man can do that is to love a woman to the bone.

I can’t help but think of the look on Ben Richter’s face when he first found out that Tina Deross had cancer, the look of the world instantly coming crashing down.

Tina Deross is his world.

A tear dripped onto Tina Deross’ face, it was the first time I’d ever seen Ben Richter cry, he hugged Tina Deross tightly, his emotions suddenly getting a little out of control and the sound of him whimpering was heard around the room.

With red eyes, he kissed Tina Deross’s hand and said with an oath, “I’ll make the man who ever hurt you pay double, and I won’t go back on my word when I promise you that I’ll make Richter …”

Before his words fell, the golden hair downstairs suddenly barked furiously, Ben Richter immediately turned his head over, and fortunately I dodged quickly, otherwise I would have been discovered.

There was a commotion downstairs, and Ben Richter immediately exited from it, locking the door behind him and quickly descending the stairs.Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Downstairs, Nancy Richter kicked at the Golden, cursing under her breath, “What kind of people have what kind of dogs.”

Ben Richter walked over and I crept to the stairway to see Golden wagging his tail and laying timidly on his side, Ben Richter walked over, “Nancy, who’s this tantrum at.”

This Golden was raised by Ben Richter.

As the saying goes, it takes a dog to beat a dog, and that’s what Nancy Richter was saying to Ben Richter.

Nancy Richter shrugged her shoulders indifferently, and her words were implied: “This dog doesn’t listen, when I brought it back, it was a milk dog, the Richter family gave it food and drink, and raised it to be fat and strong, but it bites back at the owner, such an ungrateful beast, not to mention hitting and scolding, or taking it to the kill is not enough, big brother! You say.”

Ben Richter’s face was very hard, horribly grim, and he glared over at Golden Hair with a single glance, “Useless beast.”

Golden is terrified of Ben Richter and cowering in the corner, shivering.

Nancy Richter laughed and said, “Big brother, it’s useless to just scold this beast, right, I forgot, this dog was raised by big brother, big brother, you’d better dispose of this disobedient dog as early as possible, or else it’s not good if it bites you back one day.”

“Just an animal.” Ben Richter grunted, “Nancy, what are you doing here when you weren’t at Walker’s wedding.”

“I’m just idly walking around, where’s big brother, why are you in the warehouse on a big day like second brother’s wedding.” Nancy Richter probed her head towards the inside, just in time to meet my four eyes, a flash of surprise crossed her face, not expecting me to be inside.

Ben Richter sensed Nancy Richter’s strangeness and turned his head, and I quickly leaned back to hide behind the discarded furniture.

I heard Nancy Richter shrill and strange, “What a big spider, big brother, this warehouse has been abandoned for so many years, snakes and bugs and spiders, it’s dirty, I’d better have someone come and organize it.”

That was intentional on Nancy Richter’s part. She was covering me from Ben Richter.

As soon as he heard that Nancy Richter was looking for someone to organize the warehouse, Ben Richter immediately said, “You don’t need to take care of this kind of small thing, I’ve already asked Uncle Ho to get someone to clean it just now, and I’m just checking to see if there’s still some useful things in there.”
