Manuel frowned when he heard that, waved to the servant and gave him a few instructions.
Soon a doctor in a white coat came over, took the cat's body and began to examine it.
“It was indeed cut out with a knife and the technique was very professional. The cat was slowly bled to death in pain.”
Then another security guard came running to report, “We just checked the surveillance and only Miss Gloria came to the garden in the afternoon.”
Manuel's expression suddenly darkened and he looked down at Gloria, “Do you have anything else to say?”
Gloria moved her lips but said nothing. She knew that that kind of thing would be the result.
Finally, she whispered, “What can I say? You never believed me. What else can I say?”
Manuel hesitated when he heard that.
“Sister, are you saying that I deliberately framed you?” Slyvia shook her head and cried even more sadly, “Kitty is the only thing my mother left. Even if it's a false accusation, how could I bear to use its life to frame you?”
As Slyvia said that, she could not bear the shock and fainted.
Manuel quickly supported her, his expression becoming cold and hard again, “Gloria, I didn't expect you to be so vicious now.
“I was the one who abandoned you at the wedding. If you want to blame someone, you should blame me. Why are you taking it out on Slyvia's cat?”
His eyes were full of disappointment as he continued, “We in the Norton Family don't want a young lady who is so mean and cruel. So, why not cancel the engagement?”
“Okay,” Gloria said calmly.
Manuel's anger suddenly froze and then his face became even gloomier. “I'm not kidding you, don't regret it.”
Just as he opened his mouth, Gloria’s parents hurried over.
Without further ado, Gloria’s father slapped Gloria in the face, “How could I raise such a vicious daughter like you?!”
Gloria's face was already swollen from the previous beating and that time blood was oozing out.
Gloria’s father was still furious and raised his hand again when he yelled, “If you can kill a cat today, I think you can kill a person tomorrow. So, I won’t let you free from now on.
“I don’t know why since you woke up, you have always disturbed the whole family. If I had known you would become like this, I would rather you died in that car accident!
“Someone, lock her up for me. No one is allowed to bring her food. We'll talk about it when she's done reflecting on her actions.”
There was a needle-like pain on her face and her head was aching and she felt nauseous. Gloria could not help but dry heave a few times, but the pain in her body could not compare to the pain in her heart.
What had happened that year was that she was the one who dragged her parents and Manuel out of the car that was about to explode one by one.
Because she was saving them, she was hit by the explosion and suffered a head injury, becoming a vegetable and lying there for three years.
But then she was blamed for not dying in that car accident.
Gloria could not tell whether the red fluid on her face was blood or tears. She raised her head and looked at those people who were originally closest to her.
At that moment, their faces looked more unfamiliar than ever before.
Gloria smiled, but her eyes gradually became dead silent and at that moment something completely left her.
Manuel and Gloria’s mother panicked and felt like they had lost something forever. They could not help but plead for Gloria at the same time.
Slyvia stopped them, “Manuel, although I don't want my sister to be locked up, my father's approach is not unreasonable. It's better for my sister to learn a lesson now than for her to get into bigger trouble outside in the future and not be able to deal with it.
“After all, people could only protect her as long as she is at home.”
Hearing Sylvia’s words, Gloria’s mother withdrew her hand.
Manuel also nodded, “I was inconsiderate, it would be good for her to learn a lesson from this.”
Gloria was locked up in an abandoned garage.
