Fortunate to Have You This Lifetime

Chapter 1258: Chapter 1258

Abigail Thompson gave birth to a lovely daughter.

Upon learning that it was a daughter, Abigail Thompson’s expression turned slightly gloomy.

Sydney Bennett stayed by her side, gently placing a rose ring on Abigail Thompson’s middle finger, holding her hand and asking, "Don’t like girls?"

"No," Abigail Thompson slowly shook her head, softly saying, "It’s just that women always have many constraints in this world. Raising a boy might be easier, more carefree."

Sydney Bennett smiled, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.

Graham Burke stood outside the door with the officers, waiting. Sydney Bennett leaned over and lightly kissed Abigail Thompson’s forehead, saying, "I’m going now."

Abigail Thompson remained silent for a long time before nodding slightly, "Hm."

Sydney Bennett released her hand, tucked the blanket around her, then stood up calmly and left the room with Graham Burke.

In the ward, only Abigail Thompson and Purple Summers were left.

Abigail Thompson, who had just undergone a caesarean section, looked haggard. Her pale face showed no extra emotions, this indifference making her somewhat similar to Sydney Bennett. It was unclear if she had learned this from Sydney, or if it was her original nature.

Purple Summers said to her, "According to the relevant laws, Sydney Bennett should be sentenced to life imprisonment or the death penalty. As an accessory, you face a maximum of life imprisonment and a minimum of 20 years. However, since you have just given birth, you will have a 12-month breastfeeding period outside of prison, after which you will continue your sentence. If you have any objections, you can contact a lawyer to appeal, understand?"

"Yes, I understand," Abigail Thompson recovered her gentle and calm demeanor.

With nothing more to say, they both fell silent.

Purple Summers got up to leave, hesitated at the door, and turned back to look at Abigail Thompson, "Why did those two women die?"

Abigail Thompson raised her head, "They chose to go to another world together, so we sent our blessings to them."

"You?" Purple Summers was shocked, "You... assisted their suicide?"

Abigail Thompson smiled faintly, "Yes, they didn’t suffer much when they died, don’t worry."

She then smiled again, her tone slightly mocking, "I didn’t expect it to be considered a serial murder case, and even have someone imitate it. Truly peculiar."

Purple Summers stared at her, recalling the Black Rose tattoo and the Black Rose ring. So... they were a pair.

It seemed that the chat group Sydney Bennett and Abigail Thompson were in was initially a gathering place for a special community. After the homicide case, under Sydney’s gradual operation, the group was completely transformed.

Although the former members had left, the Black Rose case remained unsolved. If the truth was uncovered, everyone would be implicated.

It wasn’t just the charge of assisting suicide that was frightening, but the damage to their reputation. The families behind them would also be deeply entangled, unable to break free.

Most people’s acceptance of homosexuality was very limited. Even in liberal foreign countries, discrimination still existed.

Purple Summers’s mind was filled with countless thoughts, momentarily chaotic.

At that instant, her phone rang suddenly.

She answered, understood the other side’s words, and her eyes widened instantly, "What?! She committed suicide?!"

Sydney Bennett committed suicide?!

Where did the surgical knife come from? Why didn’t the police handcuff her? How did she have the chance to commit suicide?

All these questions rushed to her lips, yet Purple Summers couldn’t utter a single one.

She looked up, staring straight at Abigail Thompson on the bed, seeing only calm indifference on her face.

"You knew all along?" Purple Summers asked in disbelief.

Abigail Thompson raised her hand, gently kissed the black gemstone on the ring, closed her eyes, and murmured, "We will always be together."

Purple Summers took a deep breath, stepped outside, and instructed the officers, "Abigail Thompson has suicidal tendencies. Remain on high alert, and ensure that no one carries any dangerous instruments in or out!"

With one last glance at the woman on the bed, Purple Summers bit her lip and hurriedly left the hospital...
