Chapter 470
As long as they could unlock the phone, they would find the key to everything.
In the early hours of the morning, Melvin finally finished work and arrived with the now-unlocked device.
The two of them huddled together, turning on Tina's phone.
Late at night, the girl had opened messaging app.
"Did you go?"
Tina, feeling anxious, hesitated before typing a reply.
"Not yet."
"You only have two days left. If you don't go, you'll regret it."
Her fingers trembled as she typed her response.
"Please... I'll go. Tomorrow, I'll go."
"I'll be waiting for your update."
The next day, Tina had gone to Sarah's counseling session.
As expected, when she got home, another message was waiting for her.
"Good. | know you went today. Now... when are you going to die?"
"I don't want to die anymore. There are still so many things | want to do. And HIV isn't an immediate death
sentence, right? | heard the government provides free treatment... there's still hope, isn't there?" She stared at
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthe chat window, waiting for reassurance.
"I don't care what you think now. You made a deal with me-so keep your word. Otherwise, I'll make sure you do.
"And don't tellyou actually believe that if the people around you find out, they'll still treat you the same?"
Tina didn't know how to respond. Before she could type anything, another message appeared.
"Don't be naive. You really think you'll get a second chance? If you want to test it out, why not start with the
person closest to you? How about letting your mother ‘accidentally’ find your medical records and see if she'll
still give you that chance?" Tina turned to look at her mother, who was watching TV, completely unaware. Then,
with a determined look in her eyes, she typed a single word. "Okay."
Sarah exhaled deeply, forcing herself to stay calm as she processed what she had just read.
So that was it.
Tina hadn't accidentally left her medical records and medication out for her mother to find-she had done it on
purpose. She wanted to test to see if her mother would still accept her.
But Sarah already knew how that experiment had ended. It had failed.
The moment Mrs. Mendes learned the truth, she had recoiled in disgust, telling her daughter to stay away. That
single glance of rejection had been the first blow, shattering the fragile walls Tina had built around herself.
The final push cshortly after, when Mrs. Mendes left to buy groceries.
A new message arrived.
"See that? | told you. But you just wouldn't believe it until the truth slapped you in the face. Even your own
mother couldn't accept what you've become.
"You're already beyond saving. You might as well die. At least if you do, your mother and brother will get a
decent payout. You'd be worth more dead than alive."
Tina hesitated.

Then, another message appeared on her screen.
"Open the door."
Sarah didn't need to see more.
She was sure now. The woman had lured Tina out of the house, leading her straight to the rooftop.
Melvin's expression was grim. "That person drove Tina to her death."
"It was Vivian," Sarah said with certainty.
