Wayne had initially claimed that Griffin died in a car accident and that the death was rather brutal. He assumed that I, being a young girl, wouldn’t be so brave to lift the cloth. Actually, I could have uncovered the cloth right then and exposed Griffin's fake death. However, if I did that, Bianca would never learn the truth about her husband having an affair and a child.
With this in mind, I spoke calmly.
"I’m not questioning your professionalism. I just want to help Griffin fulfill his last wish. Besides, the video of Griffin saying he wanted to donate his body to the school had such high viewership. If we don’t donate it, we’d be accused of being untrustworthy by netizens and students. I’m sure you don’t want him to be discussed negatively after his death, right?"
I added, "Moreover, donating the body to the school as a body donor also extends his teaching philosophy in another way. Continuing his life in this manner is, in a way, a form of rebirth."
Bianca was touched by my words.
"Amiya, you’re right. I shouldn’t have been so narrow-minded. Donating the body to the school is also Griffin’s wish. It’s much more meaningful than just cremation. You’re right..."
As she spoke, she began to cry again.
I took out my phone and, with a heavy heart, called the academic office of Southwest Medical University.
"Hello, is this Southwest Medical University? I’d like to donate Griffin's body to you as a body donor. He passed away not long ago, so please come and handle it.
"He’s gone, and I’m also very sad. But he said he wanted to donate his body to his alma mater to help more students."
Hearing my words, Bianca cried sadly, completely drained of energy, and collapsed on the ground.
She grabbed my hand and choked with emotion.
"Amiya, you deserved Griffin’s great care. He would be very happy with your decision."
I tried to appear sorrowful and nodded at Bianca.
This time, I wanted to see how Griffin would escape and reunite with his mistress.
The body donors at Southwest Medical University had been in use for over a decade. Upon hearing about the new donation, the staff arrived within half an hour.
They were excited, shook hands with Bianca, and expressed their gratitude and sorrow. But Bianca, lost in grief over her husband’s death, couldn’t pull herself together.
