Short filmTranscript
00:05the wolf spirit within me was slowly dying that beautiful white wolf was my soul gentle noble
00:13with as pure as moonlight but now she curled deep in my consciousness every breath agony
00:20her faint breath heavy with despair i was slowly dying from silverstone wolf's vein and there was
00:26only one cure the miracle elixir but my mate leo ashford bought it and gave it to my adoptive
00:33sister jane smith he did it because he thought i was faking my illness
00:41i gave up on the treatment and swallowed a potent painkiller instead it would kill me in three days
00:46by shutting down my organ in those three days i gave up everything i handed over the firm
00:51manufacturing business i built from the ground up to jane and my parents praised me for caring
00:56about my sister i offered to sever our mate bond and leo praised me for finally being sensible
01:02when i told my son he could call jane mommy he happily said that his new mommy was the best
01:12i transferred all my savings to jane and no one seemed to notice anything out of the ordinary
01:18they were just pleased with my better behavior biola is finally not so bad i wondered would they regret
01:25it after i was gone the doctor looked at me with pity as i swallowed a heavy dose of painkillers
01:38three days left to live that was what they had told me
01:42i took the elevator up to the vip floor my dad charlie smith was slicing fruit for jane meanwhile
01:50my mom wendy carter was curled up beside her watching a movie the moment i opened the door
01:55the happy chatter stopped didn't you say you were on your deathbed this morning
01:59what now no one believed your lie so you came wider to pick on jane again viola from this moment
02:04on your
02:05father and i aren't leaving jane's side you won't get another chance to hurt her mom said coldly
02:10stepping in front of the bed to block me we're the smith family nobles of moonfall pack we have
02:17standards and we're respected but you you've always been hot-tempered and jealous you even faked
02:23being sick just to steal the miracle elixir meant for jane dad stood beside mom just as defensive
02:29like a hen guarding their chick and behind them jane peeked out and stuck her tongue out at me
02:36that smile smug contemptuous provocative i had seen it too many times every time i tried to expose her true
02:47colors
02:50she would wear that same smirk because she knew no one would ever believe me
02:58you're serious is this some kind of trick i smiled bitterly i had heard this before every time i
03:07would shout back i would tell them i never touched jane and try to prove how fake she really was
03:14but all
03:15i got in return was my parents distrust and disgust more distance less love and now i was dying there
03:24was no point in explaining anything anymore
03:32anyway it's good that you're here saves me the trouble of calling you i have something to say
03:37dad said with a cold expression i actually something to say too i said trying to keep my tone light
03:43jane's
03:43always wanted my fur business right well i've been thinking since we're family i'll give it to her the
03:50cold expression on my parents faces cracked momentarily they exchanged glances then looked at me you're
03:57serious is this some kind of trick are you asking for something in return
04:12they couldn't believe it their first reaction was to think i was playing a trick on them
04:18and i couldn't blame them jane had been eyeing the fur company i had built from scratch for years
04:24my parents had tried everything to convince me to hand it over every talk ended in a fight and
04:31every fight chipped away at whatever family love we had left but now but what about now how pathetic
04:39since that's what you want i'll give you exactly that i'll make sure you finally see her true colors
04:45you should have done this a long time ago and now i'm ready to
04:49dad said softly his voice relaxed and his eyes finally looked kind mom stepped forward and gently
04:56held my hand you've grown up you're finally acting sensible she smiled warmly i know you created the
05:03company but jane's been top of her class in finance and business at university if anyone can take your
05:09company and turn it into the top fur brand in the country it's her i nodded quietly and handed the
05:15sign to transfer papers to jane my fingers brushed against hers for just a moment her skin was warm
05:21so full of life unlike mine which had already begun to feel cold she took the papers from me with
05:28both
05:28hands pretending to be hesitant are you sure viola i don't want you to feel forced but her fingers had
05:37already closed around the documents tight possessive like she was afraid i might snatch them back
05:51i wasn't going to i'm sure i said quietly as i stared at my signature on the bottom of the
05:57paper
05:58i caught sight of jane's expression jane looked surprised at first but when no one else was watching
06:03she shot me a smug victorious smile in this competition for family affection i had lost
06:11here drink some water you must be thirsty
06:15mom offered me a glass of water and gently brushed my hair back her smile soft and sweet
06:23i nearly cried why was it only when i gave something to jane that mom treated me like her daughter
06:29when i returned home from the hospital my son and mate were having dinner at the table
06:35this cream of mushroom soup is amazing dad mark said with a grin your aunt jane loves it too
06:41we'll bring her some after dinner they were laughing and chatting looking like the perfect little family
06:46i stood in the doorway for a moment longer than i should have watching them memorizing them none of
06:51them had noticed me yet for a brief second i felt like a ghost in my own home but the
06:56second they
06:56saw me walk in everything changed viola why are you home leo ashford set down his spoon staring at me
07:10in confusion the spread of food on the table seemed to hurt my eyes mark's gaze was distant as if
07:17he
07:17were looking at a stranger that was when i realized that leo knew how to cook and he was good
07:22at it too
07:22i never knew that i used to be the one who cooked the one who worked long hours to pay
07:29the bills the
07:30one who held the house together but leo always complained that my cooking was terrible even mark
07:36picked up on it he started acting like i wasn't good enough to be his mother i gave everything to
07:41this family my time my energy my whole life and in the end not one of them respected me back
07:48then if they
07:49gave me the cold shoulder like this i would have snapped i would have shouted why can't i come home
07:55why do you look at me like i don't belong here but not anymore i didn't answer i just started
08:00packing
08:00my things quietly when i didn't answer leo hesitated for a moment then walked over to me viola
08:19you agreed to it
08:24viola i wanted to talk to you about something his voice was softer this time almost guilty
08:32your sister just started her treatment and the miracle licks her affecting her emotions makes her feel down
08:37to keep her spirits up and to help with her recovery your parents suggested that she and
08:41i go through the marking ceremony they hope it'll make her feel better my heart sank and for a second
08:48i thought i had misheard you agreed to it leo looked uncomfortable at my response viola jane may not be
08:59your real
08:59sister but she's been part of this family since your parents adopted her you want her to get better
09:05don't you he paused like he was choosing his words carefully we're just going through the marking
09:09ceremony the witch says it'll help jane recover faster as it'll lift her mood it won't change
09:14anything between us i'm still your mate and mark's bad before i could respond mark spoke up mommy
09:20aunt jane's really upset the doctor said it's bad for her health so please agree with dad okay i stared
09:26at them both one was the man i had loved for years the other my son i had given everything
09:32to both of
09:33them every piece of me as a mate as a mother i had sacrificed it all why were they treating
09:39me like
09:39this why would they betray my love just for jane
09:48i stood there silently for a long time what did it matter now i was dying anyway jane wanted my
09:55things
09:55fine she could have them all i didn't want everything i had anymore i wiped away the tear
10:03that slipped down my cheek then looked up at leo okay fine leo's face lit up with surprise and
10:09excitement he quickly grabbed the papers from the table great this is the mate bond desolation
10:15agreement once you sign we'll formally reject our bond and be done with i felt like my heart was
10:20shattering so he had planned this all along leo really wanted to end things between us didn't he
10:25to be with jane mommy just sign it mark said handing me the pen i took it and quickly signed
10:31the paper once leo and i rejected each other the ridiculous conversation ended then i went upstairs
10:37to rest dot leo solemnly promised from behind me viola when jane's fully recovered later on i'll end
10:43things with her believe me my heart will always be yours this is just a formality i pursed my lips
10:49in my heart i already knew the truth we were over then i heard him sigh and add viola you've
10:55become
10:55more composed now not as reckless and unreasonable as before back when we used to argue i wasn't always
11:00reether i owe you an apology least jane to better i'll take care of you i won't you upset you
11:04they want
11:05mommy i've won me great for him you've been so easing to jane i'm infall of you their words hit
11:10me like a wave of cold water
11:20their words contained gratitude and care and all of it started only after the bond was broken
11:27how ironic before i had hoped for something maybe even expected it but now as i headed upstairs
11:35i felt nothing but numbness it didn't matter anymore i was dying anyway i tried to hurry up
11:41the stairs but before i could reach the top everything went black i shivered gasping as i
11:46blanked up at the ceiling leo and mark were standing over me their faces tight with frustration they
11:53didn't seem worried just disappointed
11:59mommy are you pretending again mark asked his voice flat
12:04you've used this fanning trick so many times can you try something new daddy and i are supposed to
12:08deliver aunt jane her mushroom soup you've wasted our time and now the soup's cold mark was clearly
12:13angry leo looked disappointed and he was holding a glass of ice water in his hand viola stop it even
12:19though we've dissolved our mate bond i still love you don't try to test my feelings for you with tricks
12:23like pretending to faint i slowly came to my senses realizing what had just happened i had passed out
12:30but instead of rushing me to the hospital or getting me medical help they had drawn a glass
12:35of ice water in my face to wake me up it was laughable they will know i was really dying
12:41rather
12:42than pretending if they had just unblocked their link to me no one cared enough to check mommy you
12:48look fine you're all rosy and healthy you don't look sick at all next time try a new trick if
12:53you're
12:53going to pretend mark's words cut through me like a knife i forced myself to stand up
13:09the doctor's potent painkiller was working making me look healthier than i was
13:15but i knew deep down my body was already fading
13:19i'm not pretending i might have skipped a meal that's all if you want to go to the hospital i'll
13:24go with you the transagreeant still needs a few signatures leo clearly wanted to say more but when
13:31he saw me pick up the agreement he simply nodded and followed me to the hospital so he already knew
13:37about the agreement viola you're here when we arrived at the hospital room jane was watching a movie
13:43her complexion undeniably worse than mine if anything she looked like the one who was seriously
13:49ill despite her warm greeting the challenge in her eyes that unmissable arrogance caught sharper than
13:56any blade viola thanks for handing the company over to me don't worry i'll make it even more successful
14:04with jane managing the company you won't have to work so hard you'll still get your share of profits and
14:09it'll be so much easier for you mom added grabbing my hand with a smile i forced a smile back
14:16yeah i
14:16agree that's why i'm gonna hand over all my assets to jane to manage that way i can relax everyone
14:24froze
14:25shocked they knew just how much that was worth
14:41viola are you serious even the trust fund in the bank leo's voice was a mix of shock and confusion
14:47i was puzzled jane had always wanted everything i had and the whole family was always there to support
14:54her when i refused i was called selfish rude and ungrateful now that i was finally giving it to
15:00her they were acting strange wasn't this what they had been pushing for all along after a long silence
15:05it was dad who finally spoke up viola you've really grown up you're being kind to your sister looking
15:10out for her now should have been like this from the start we're family what's yours is ours no need
15:16to draw a line so firmly everywhere it's good to see you two getting along your mother and i are
15:21relieved that added with a smile but were they really relieved did they honestly think jane was
15:27capable of managing all that wealth at home she food everyone with her fake kindness
15:33but out in the world no one would buy it i felt a tickle in my nose when i rubbed
15:41it
15:41my fingers came away smeared with blood why the nosebleed
16:07the humidity in this room is perfectly fine mom murmured handing me a tissue i wiped the blood away
16:14casually then tested the waters mom dad if i died one day would you be sad there was a pause
16:25a heavy silence in the room dad looked at me with a serious expression his voice sharp
16:31viola don't play these tricks don't pretend to be sick just to get sympathy
16:37your wolf may not be the strongest but this is just a small problem that can be easily cured don't
16:41try pull stunts like in front home again he sighed rubbing his forehead the room which had been peaceful
16:48just moments ago suddenly felt heavy again with dad's words i smile bitterly what wolf my wolf had already
16:55died while fighting off the silverthorn wolf's bane that toxin laced with silver had seeped into my
17:01bloodstream and eventually corroded my organs and in the end it killed my wolf dad i know viola lied
17:10before acted out and pretended to be sick but that was the old her i believe she's better now jane
17:18said
17:18looking at me with a sharp taunting look she sounded like she was defending me but all i could hear
17:25was
17:25her reminding everyone of my past mistakes i think aunt jane needs more love and care
17:35all right just don't mess up again look at you look at you so full of life
17:39dad muttered then turned to jane with undisguised tenderness meanwhile jane's the one who really needs
17:44care his voice dropped heavy with concern this illness her healing factor is almost inexistent now
17:50i think aunt jane needs more love and care mark said leaning over the bed please get better soon
17:55aunt jane i felt a sharp pain in my chest and all the small hope i had left was crushed
18:00i wiped away
18:01the tears that had started to fall then looked at mark and said you said your aunt jane is the
18:06best right
18:09do you want her to be your mother i've decided from now on jane will be your mummy
18:16are you happy mark's eyes lit up really really jane can stay with you from now on
18:22she can pick you up from kindergarten and cook you better meals than i ever could
18:27how does that sound aren't you happy before i could say more mark cracked my hand and kissed the back
18:32of
18:32it i'm so happy mommy you're the best then without a second thought he rushed to jay's bedside and
18:39called out mommy the pain in my chest was unbearable
18:49in a daze i dialed the number
18:54it had been so long since my son had shown me any affection
18:58i couldn't even remember the last time he held my hand or kissed the back of my hand like that
19:03and the price for all of that was letting him call someone else mommy my parents and leo watched the
19:08scene with smiles on their faces pleased i pressed my hand to my mouth trying not to cry out loud
19:15and quietly stepped out of the hospital room i didn't know where to go i had one day left to
19:20live
19:20i thought about going for a walk by the beach but it was so far away and i didn't have
19:26the strength
19:27was i dying already but it wasn't time yet what should i do in a daze i dialed the number
19:35i could no longer see clearly before my eyes only feeling the world spin violently an anxious
19:41voice came from the other end of the phone viola viola
19:53the next thing i knew i woke up to the sound of a familiar voice selena hunt my best friend
20:00she had rushed all the way from horizon peck's territory to see me we met in college back then
20:07she never liked leo she always thought he wasn't good enough for me and that he didn't deserve my
20:14love we fought about it back then and i didn't listen to her she didn't come to my marking ceremony
20:21i knew i shouldn't have called her but she was the only one i could trust now what have you
20:27done to
20:27yourself you're almost dead where is your mate you always told me how happy your family was but now
20:35look at you selena cried as she spoke her voice full of frustration i had an oxygen mask on my
20:41face
20:42and i smiled weakly at her she was still the same quick tempered loud and caring those who didn't know
20:49us would think we were arguing how did you get poisoned by silver thrown wolf spake why didn't
20:55you tell me she cried tears streaming down her face i wanted to speak but my lips wouldn't move i
21:01was at
21:02the end and i couldn't control my body anymore i motioned for her to look at my bag
21:09she pulled out the contract and she broke down again after reading it viola you can't die i won't
21:16allow it you can't die she collapsed next to me sobbing uncontrollably i glanced at the clock on the
21:22wall only two hours left before i would leave this world suddenly my phone buzzed selena picked it up
21:35and showed me the screen viola after all these years of fighting with me you finally lost your parents
21:41your mate and your son they're all mine now you've finally faced the truth haven't you in your parents
21:47eyes you'll never be better than me selena shouted angrily i've never seen anyone so shameless in the
21:54past i would have argued back but now i only felt regret i regretted letting my parents adopt jane
22:02the girl who was abandoned at the orphanage she was only three back then other kids would bully her
22:07and she couldn't eat she had to sit in the corner and go hungry she was so pitiful that was
22:14why i asked
22:15my dad to adopt her we slept in the same bed ate together and went to school together we were
22:24closer
22:24than real sisters she was good at her studies and everyone loved her everyone praised her and i felt
22:32proud to have such an outstanding sister but over time i started noticing strange things
22:46everything my friends stopped hanging out with me and the boys i practiced hunting with no longer
22:51wanted to team up instead they all started hanging around jane
23:06even my parents started saying i wasn't as thoughtful as jane that i wasn't as sensible as
23:11she was they gave jane the master bedroom in the new house while i was left with a smaller room
23:16but i
23:17didn't see anything wrong with it by the time i realized jane was behind all of it she had already
23:22taken so much from me my parents love my master bedroom even my friends at school i asked her why
23:29she did it and she said viola don't think i'll thank you just because you asked your dad to adopt
23:34me
23:35why do you get to have loving parents and a grand home while i'm just some abandoned orphan i'm going
23:41to
23:41take from you everything you'll lose to me i'm sure of it
24:02viola don't die i tried to drive her away but i overestimated myself
24:08i couldn't make my family see how fake she was
24:19my parents loved her even more and my son and leo trusted her even more
24:24in the end i did lose i lost everything
24:33i could feel my soul slipping away from my body there were only five minutes left viola don't die
24:39please look your mom just sent you a message she must have sensed that you're in danger
24:45selena held up the phone to my face trying to keep me from giving up i stared at the message
24:50on my
24:50phone viola after jane is discharged she'll stay at your place remember lily's in the master bedroom
24:57and repaint the walls blue that's what she likes she'll be out in two weeks move all your things
25:02to the basement jane has too much there won't be space otherwise selena's hands shook as she held
25:08the phone she was probably feeling hopeless too i was so tired the white wolf hadn't moved for three
25:15days curled up in the corner its silvery fur fading little by little as if moonlight were being
25:22swallowed by dark clouds it was waiting for me waiting to leave together with me at the last
25:28moment my consciousness faded i saw the white wolf
25:38it slowly rose using its last shred of strength lifted its head and let out a silent howl toward
25:45the sky i could not see then its body scattered like crumbled snow bit by bit silvery light drifted
25:53out from within me like countless butterflies flying into the void it was my turn to leave
25:59i closed my eyes and sank into darkness for the last time selena held me and cried loudly
26:05but i could no longer comfort her on april 20th i closed my eyes for the last time
26:10and slipped away quietly i was watching tv when the door to my hospital room opened
26:17why are you here it was my biological father jeremy ziegler i felt both scared and disgusted when i saw
26:25him he smirked and looked me up and down what do you think i'm here for money i need ten
26:31thousand
26:31dollars i'm out of cash if i hadn't dumped you at the orphanage how would you have ended up with
26:36the
26:37smith i hurled a glass at him with a snarl no money then you come crawling to me again you've
26:42got
26:42hands and legs go earn it yourself what right do you have you never raised me he raised an eyebrow
26:47and looked at me with a challenge if you don't give me the money i'll tell everyone what you did
26:52to
26:52viola if i don't have money i'll do whatever it takes i deflated like a punctured balloon defiance
26:59leaking out of me most secrets couldn't see the light no matter the cost
27:16i don't care when you get out of the hospital
27:21i bit out through gritted teeth fine but you'll have to wait until i'm discharged and take over
27:26the company that's when i'll have money you've just been poisoned by regular wolf's bone yet
27:31you're acting like you're about to die your acting skills are impressive i don't care when you get
27:35out of the hospital you'll give me the money if you don't i'll pay your precious parents a visit
27:40or maybe even that new mate of yours let's see how they look at you after i'm done telling them
27:46everything jeremy left swaggering with a smug smile i was so angry i smashed everything in the room
27:58why why did viola get a happy family with a mate who loved her while i was stuck with this
28:06irresponsible father i had worked so hard to get everything viola had i couldn't let it go now
28:13this card still belongs to miss viola and it's been frozen
28:18after consuming the miracle elixir i could feel my wolf's powers getting stronger i had to hurry and
28:24sell all the viola's assets getting the money in my hands was the safest thing i had already arranged
28:30for someone to fake my identity as a werewolf from another pack once i had the money i would leave
28:35this
28:35pack behind i would go to another pack and start a new life that sorry excuse of a father and
28:41the smith
28:42family would never find me with that thought in mind i rushed to the bank
28:48sorry is this your card the bank clerk asked yes this card belongs to a person named viola your id
28:55shows that your name is jane not viola i froze what did that mean we've already signed the property
29:01transfer agreement this card should be in my name now can you double check the bank clerk shook his head
29:06i haven't made a mistake this card still belongs to miss viola and it's been frozen i couldn't
29:12understand why was it frozen viola had transferred everything to me and the transfer agreement was
29:18perfect why was everything falling apart now i left the bank and quickly called my friends to check the
29:24ownership of the fur company they told me everything still belonged to viola and it had nothing to do with
29:30me that woman had tricked me i called her to ask about the company but she didn't answer i tried
29:40calling
29:40viola but she wouldn't answer what a witch what should i do without the money jeremy would expose
29:47everything i had done if that happened it would all be over i went back to the hospital and soon
29:53my parents
29:53and leo arrived i pretended to ask mom dad you're here have you seen viola i called her to ask
30:01about
30:01the company but she didn't answer dad shook his head looking upset that girl after the company she
30:06still throws tantrums just wait till i teach her a lesson doesn't she realize how much work goes into a
30:12transfer and now she won't even pick up her phone as dad spoke he called viola at first the call
30:18went
30:18through but by the third try it went straight to voicemail dad frowned now she's turned her phone
30:24off pulling a disappearing act huh she must be throwing a nose no doubt what set her off this time
30:29who hears of this drama and she still hasn't outgrown it mom also snatched up her phone fingers jabbing
30:35at the screen as she fired off a terse message viola get back here now
30:48mom also snatched up her phone fingers jabbing at the screen as she fired off a terse message
30:55viola get back here now it was clear to me that my parents were growing increasingly frustrated with
31:01viola i was delighted viola look at you all i had to do was say a few things and now
31:09your own parents
31:10are annoyed with you even though you tried to hide the company and the bank assets from me
31:15so what your parents and mate don't care about you anymore as long as i hold their hearts i'll have
31:22endless money i'll watch as the people you care about turn their backs on you
31:29but for some reason i felt like something was off my parents seemed a little distant like they
31:36didn't care about me as much as they used to i had a bad feeling
31:57when i got home from the hospital i sat down on the couch and noticed a faint unpleasant smell
32:03the flowers in the vase had wilted vola why didn't you change the flowers i called out however there was
32:10no answer that was when i realized she hadn't been home for a few days
32:16i took out my phone again and tried calling but no one picked up
32:20i mind linked her but there was no response either
32:28i sighed we only temporarily severed our mate bond it wasn't like we were really over
32:33why didn't she actually move out i left her a message when are you coming back the house needs
32:40cleaning but as i sent it i suddenly realized that all our past chats were mostly from her
32:45my replies were short just one or two words the more i looked the worse it felt a flicker of
32:50panic
32:50began to rise in me i sent another text viola come back quickly there's still so much waiting for you
32:56at home
33:06in the last year or two i had stopped showing viola the love i used to
33:10i had even started getting annoyed at her for talking too much and turned off the link between us
33:18i remembered when we first started dating viola was so lively bright and talented
33:26she always ranked near the top in our werewolf trials and she was also great with business and
33:31management she's shown in a crowd but every time we went on a date we ran into jane
33:39she was quieter gentler and more thoughtful she didn't have the energy or spark that viola did
33:48jay knew how to keep a conversation going and always gave compliments but i didn't like jane that
33:53way still she was part of the family so i looked out for her more than i probably should have
34:01on the other hand viola had always been so quick to lose her temper with me
34:06and so harsh toward jane
34:10this time i agreed to go ahead with the marking ceremony to help jane recover faster
34:15as viola's mate i should help her sister
34:20maybe that hurt viola's feelings and that was why she wasn't talking to me now
34:27never mind once this was over i would apologize and make it up to her properly
34:33i sent a message and waited still no reply well maybe in a few days she would calm down and
34:42come back
34:50i lay in bed but i was somehow unable to sleep
34:55what's wrong charlie asked i still can't reach viola her phone is off and i'm worried charlie shook his head
35:06she's probably just mad she's not answering calls or messages and i tried to mind link her but
35:13she ignored me that girl has such a temper he thought viola was just angry and avoiding us on purpose
35:20but i had a bad feeling a feeling i couldn't shake in the past even if viola was upset she
35:26wouldn't go
35:26more than a day without contacting us she would always call or respond even if she had turned off
35:32her phone she would never block the link between us we were the ones who did but this time it
35:38felt
35:38different i remembered when viola had left a few days ago right after she had jane signed the transfer
35:42papers we had all been so elated until we realized she hadn't just stepped out she had vanished it
35:48wasn't like her at all what if something had happened to her how long has it been since we last
35:53saw viola
35:54my hand started to sweat with worry charlie thought for a moment four days my heart sank
36:00and the panic inside me grew stronger
36:05then wait for your sister to come back she'll help you
36:12the next morning i went straight to the hospital
36:19jane has viola been here i asked as soon as i walked into her room jane looked surprised by
36:25my question like she hadn't expected me to ask about viola right away no she hasn't been here what's
36:31wrong mom isn't she just ignoring us because she's mad jane's answer didn't sit right with me something
36:37felt off i turned and left my mind racing i needed to find viola mom i'm taking over the fur
36:43company
36:43and there's a big deal coming up i need a million dollars in working capital can you
36:51then wait for your sister to come back she'll help you i don't understand any of this company business
36:56anyway i didn't care about the company or the business right now i just needed to know where my
37:01daughter was when i turned to leave and close the door behind me i saw jane's face it was twisted
37:08with anger resentment and something else disappointment but i didn't have the energy
37:13to care about her right now i headed straight to leo's house mommy you're back mark cried as
37:20he ran over to me but when he saw it was just me his face fell
37:32when mark saw it was just me his face fell
37:36grandma what are you doing here is your mommy home no she hasn't been home for days mark slumped onto
37:45the
37:45couch looking sad i wanted mommy's pancakes she makes them better than aunt jane
37:56just then leo called me
38:00wendy charlie and i have been looking for viola all day but we haven't been able to reach her
38:05we suspect something's happened to her and now now we're going to the police station to report her
38:10missing could you bring mark and meet us there i hang up my heart sinking deeper with every passing
38:17second i grab mock and rush to the station
38:29when we got there the officer asked are you sure you're looking for viola smith we nodded and the
38:35officer shook his head and said she passed away three days ago aren't you her family how could you
38:41not know this my legs gave out beneath me and i collapsed to the ground what that was a lie
38:55leo's eyes were bloodshot his fists clenched as he said
39:01check again we're looking for viola smith who lives on peace avenue unit 26 the officer's expression
39:09didn't wave then i'm sorry to say but she's really gone
39:15her cause of death was silverthone wolf's bones poisoning which is a slow acting poison
39:21she took a potent painkiller for it which led to organ failure and her eventual death the officer shook his
39:27head again and added the doctor said she might have lasted months longer if she hadn't taken the
39:33painkiller or if she'd had access to a miracle elixir that could have neutralized the toxin entirely
39:41but it's too late to talk about that now my world spun at the officer's words a miracle elixir
39:47a cure we could have gotten for her it was me no us we had starved her of hope we
39:53as good as killed
39:54her ourselves then darkness
40:01someone's sending nasty texts to mommy this is so wrong wendy had passed out so i told trolley to
40:08take her to the hospital clutching the few belongings the police had returned to me viola's
40:14phone and a handful of signed transfer agreements i rushed after them at the hospital charlie stared at the documents
40:22viola is this all she left behind charlie was crying tears streaming down his face as he looked
40:29at the documents company shares transfer agreements and the bank trust fund transfer
40:35dad grandpa grandma look at this mark was holding up a phone someone's sending nasty text to mommy
40:41this is so wrong the screen showed a text message viola your parents mate and son all belong to me

40:54away didn't you say you'd give me the company why does the ownership still belong to you viola you lied
40:59to me i'm going to tell mom and dad you've been picking on me viola are you dead out there
41:03actually
41:04it's better this way i took the only thing that could have saved you the miracle elixir now death
41:10is your only choice just die already it's better this way dozens of venomous curses followed each
41:17one so vicious that even the officers who had followed us fell into stunned silence did jane said
41:23these charlie's hands trembled uncontrollably he couldn't believe what he was reading and the
41:29realization hit him like a physical blow he was one of the people who had contributed to his
41:34daughter's death mommy really was sick and that woman bullied her mark cried wendy was pulling at her
41:48hair full of regret it's my fault i was so kind to an outsider but i neglected my own daughter
41:55i felt
41:56anger rise inside me and i stormed into jane's room to my shock there was a strange man in the
42:01room with her when jane saw me she looked panicked leo why are you here the man beside her sneered
42:14just perfect timing i'm jane's real father jeremy you all think she's this sweet and obedient girl don't
42:24you he laughed coldly she's nothing but a devil stop please jeng tried to stop him but he didn't
42:33listen warned you no money and i'd expose everything did you really think i'd let you walk away unscathed
42:39jeremy turned to us and mockingly said open your eyes that silver honed wolfsbape
42:46she poisoned your mate with it paid a witch to brew it he paused for a moment to let the
42:52words sink in
42:53she was never sick everything was staged all to steal viola's last chance at survival
43:03you're all fools who treats an outsider like royalty while your own daughter and mate withers
43:11in front of you jeremy's words struck like a silver blade twisting deep get away from me
43:22here's the proof he threw a pile of documents at me charlie and wendy stood behind me barely able to
43:28breathe from the pain mark rushed to jane's bed hitting her with all his strength you killed mommy

43:39who gave me the
43:40miracle elixir your sir your family murdered viola not me jane shrieked like a deranged woman i turned
43:49to the officers my voice hollow but firm arrest her charge her with intentional homicide as we stood there
43:57looking at the empty lifeless hospital room my heart felt heavy we had all played a part in viola's death

44:11here's the certified copy of viola's estate and final arrangements
44:16everything under her name now belongs to you her face was blank as she looked at us

44:26my in-laws and i broke down in tears holding each other as we cried our prejudice killed viola and
44:33our
44:33neglect cost her her life yet even in her final moments she still thought of us and left everything
44:38to us that night we wept until dawn bled into the sky after the funeral i moved into the cemetery
44:45grounds
