My Pretty Sweetheart novel Chapter 1441

Listening to her words, I couldn't help but frown. "Weren't you brought up in the countryside? How did you meet a friend so soon? Didn't you just kill Max? I think you might have misunderstood me. The reason I saved you was just on impulse, it's not like I really wanted to save you. Don't forget that you are a murderer. Max's body is still lying in front of the Parker family's house, and now your sister is suffering the consequences of your actions. Susan, I don't think that I am going to give you a second chance."

She was a little puzzled and stared at me, at a loss for words.

Looking at her, I said, "Tell me, how did you murder Max, and how did you manage to escape? And how did you end up getting employed at the Emperor Club?"

I was not a kind-hearted person. Back then, the reason I saved her was because I wanted to question her. Seeing that she was being treated so harshly by John, I took pity on her and tried to save her. I didn't expect to lose my child in the process, I blamed myself for being too stupid and acting so rashly.

Susan pursed her lips and told me everything that had happened in the past few days. The night she was handed over to the Parker family, Rick wanted to sleep with her, but she was naturally opposed to that. Thus, she tried to commit suicide, but she did not die.

Later, she was sent to an old doctor's house for treatment. She grabbed hold of this opportunity and wanted to flee. Unexpectedly, when she fled, she bumped into Max. He was not willing to let her leave, and used force. Amidst the struggle, she pushed him, and he slipped from the second floor, plummeting headfirst to the ground. This was how Max died.

When Max died, she knew that she had to flee, otherwise she would also end up dead. She did not run away immediately, instead, she hid in the mountains. She stole the food offerings that were left at the cemetery to stay alive. After that, when Rick was not able to find her, he went straight to Gail's house for revenge.

She took the opportunity to flee, but before that, she witnessed Rick trying to cause trouble to her family. She also knew that Orchid was taken away by him.

I thought for a moment and stared at her. "So, you were the one in the white van that followed us?"

She nodded. "I stole some money from the Parker family and asked someone from the town to follow you guys. I didn't have any other motives, I just wanted to know where you guys took my sister, so that in the future, after I have landed on my feet in the city, I could find out how she was doing, where she was, and if she still remembered me.

I frowned slightly and said, "Then why did you go to the Emperor Club?"

She lowered her head and answered, "I came here all alone, and I had no money on me. The very least I could do was feed myself. I knew that the children who did not return home were either dead or being kept at the Emperor Club to entertain the guests. I just wanted to survive, and thus I had no other choice but to go to the Emperor Club."

"What's your friend's name? How old is she?" Those who didn't return were either dead, or were kept in the city. Was Sebastian forcing them to work there?
