“Uh… Save me…” The voice was hoarse and weak, as if it was being squeezed out of a choked throat.
In the white hospital room, a disheveled woman was desperately clinging to the white scarf around her neck, but the two women behind her, hands tight around her throat, had no intention of letting go. Their ferocious expressions made it clear — they wanted her dead.
Evelyn Fisher felt as if her soul was gradually being peeled away from her body while desperation darkened her eyes. Robert and Sandra, the pair of adulterers, had already caused her to be admitted in a asylum, yet still wouldn't allow her a chance at life. For once, she regretted her naivety, blindly trusting that scum, which had led to the ruin of her family and her life.
In Evelyn's eyes, the white curtain of the window fluttered in the tranquil night, as if someone was gently waving it. At the end of her life, her past lives started to resurface in her mind. She remembered the times when Sandra, holding their child, came to her and spoke those words.
“Evelyn, you are really naive. Did you seriously think that Johnny is your son? Let me tell you, Johnny is my son. Your child was stillborn when he was born in the hospital. Robert tricked you by saying that our son is your son. So, I have to thank you for taking care of my son these two years.”
“You're lying Sandra! Johnny is my son, you're lying... I don't believe a word you say!” That day, she was hysterical. Sandra’s words hit her like a bolt from the blue.
“Am I lying? Look again, who does Johnny resemble? Robert has never loved you. From the start, he was my boyfriend. He was with you just for your family's wealth. So, thanks to your tactics, if you hadn't forced Emma to die, and gotten everything from the Fisher Family, we could not have easily received it from you. So, the day we were threatening you with Johnny, it was so that you would hand over your share. You actually believed it, haha... haha...Johnny is our own son, how could we possibly harm him?”
Evelyn paled, that day, Sandra and Robert came to the psychiatry hospital to threaten her. They said that if she wouldn't give up her company shares, they would kill Johnny. She had no choice but to compromise, for her son... her supposed son turned out to be another woman's illegitimate child; it was indeed a ridiculous situation.
In the end, finding her of no use anymore, they have come to kill her.
“Evelyn, I hate your self-righteous and haughty attitude the most. Do you know how your child died? Robert bribed the doctor, that's why the child turned out to be stillborn.”
The harsh words and bloody truths stabbed Evelyn, she was too naive, inviting a wolf into her house.
Evelyn ceased to struggle, falling to the floor, tears sliding down her face. She stared empty-eyed at the iron bars on the window. If there is an afterlife, she thought within herself; Robert, Sandra, I wish you ill death. For all those who have hurt me, I will reclaim justice.
"Is she dead?" The two women approached to check on Evelyn, then kicked her twice, but there was no reaction.
"Dead? Really dead?"
"Stop talking, hurry and hang her!” The two women hastily hung Evelyn from the ceiling fan, creating the illusion of suicide. In a asylum, no one really investigates the reason for a patient's suicide.
