"Ms. Hale, could you come to the cemetery? Your daughter's grave has been dug up. The police are on their way."

I hung up and rushed to the cemetery in a panic.

*****

The cemetery staff immediately led me over, apologizing profusely. "Ms. Hale, we're so sorry. She said she wanted to see the grave, so we took her there. We didn't expect her to order someone to dig.

"The police have arrived and have restrained them, waiting for you to come."

I followed the staff quickly, and from a distance, I saw two familiar figures.

One of them was Alicia, and the person holding her was Damon.

If it weren't for her, Damon wouldn't have let me and Glenda get out of the car. Even if Glenda had a sudden heart attack, she could have been promptly taken to the hospital. And now, she was trying to dig up my daughter's grave.

Hatred made me tremble with anger. I stepped forward and pulled Alicia out of Damon's embrace, slapping her hard across the face.

I was not satisfied and was about to slap her again when Damon grabbed my wrist, pushing me to the ground. "Suzanne! What are you doing here? And why do you slap her?"

I struggled to get up from the ground, attempting to fight Damon, but the police intervened and separated us.

Alicia came to her senses, covering her face and collapsing into Damon's arms. "Damon, my eyes..."

Damon felt distressed and hugged Alicia to comfort her. "Don't cry. You just had your stitches removed. You can't cry now. It's okay. I will take care of everything."

Damon glared at me with disgust. "You crazy woman!"

I looked at him coldly and spat, "You adulterer!"

Damon was furious. "You're impossible!"

People around us looked on with curiosity. Alicia finally raised her head, looking aggrieved. "Suzanne, it's not what you think. After I came back, I had to stay in the hospital due to eye problems. I don't have many friends here, so I asked Damon to take care of me. Half a month ago, Star was not doing well, so I asked Damon to go back and check. But yesterday, Star passed away, so I came here to find a burial place. I liked this one, but they stopped and tried to drive me away. I had no choice but to ask Damon to come."

Star was a chinchilla they raised together.

I felt absurd. Damon indirectly caused the death of his daughter while caring for a chinchilla.
