Sorry for Your Loss It's Me I'm the Loss novel Chapter 959

“An… an autopsy?” Mrs. Powell was stunned.

The Walker mother and daughter were far too naive, thinking they could just bribe a doctor, murder Yvonne, and then swap the body to do as they pleased. They never considered that the Thompson family wouldn't let it go so easily after one of their own had died.

Vincent had warned Mrs. Walker repeatedly not to act rashly. Besides having a son now and being unwilling to risk everything for his sickly daughter Yolanda, he knew that without the Rogers family's backing, they'd have a hard time getting away clean.

“This… we can't do an autopsy, can we?” Mrs. Powell was in a complete panic, subconsciously looking to Bennett.

“No autopsy.” Bennett stood up, declaring, “I won't allow anyone to harm Yvonne's body.”

Frank: “Bennett! What if Yvonne's death wasn't an accident but a case of medical malpractice?”

Bennett: “Do you really think they'd have the nerve to let an 'accident' happen to my wife?”

“Right, right! Even if we had all the courage in the world, we wouldn’t dare let anything happen to Bennett's wife,” Mrs. Powell quickly agreed.

For a moment, even Frank couldn't find a reason to argue.

Besides, Yvonne was Bennett's wife. If he couldn't bear the thought of her undergoing an autopsy, Frank had no standing, nor any reason, to oppose his son on the matter.

“Then, shall I have the orderlies take your wife to the morgue?” Mrs. Powell asked again.

Her arrangement with Mrs. Walker was to swap the ‘bodies’ in the hospital morgue.

“Yes.” Bennett held Yvonne's hand, hesitating for a moment before letting go.

She grabbed Bennett's hand tightly, consoling him, “Bennett, Yvonne is gone, but the baby only has you as a father now. You have to stay strong, if only for the child.”

The memory of how Bennett had nearly followed Yvonne in death after her ‘sacrifice’ was still vivid in Emma's mind. She was terrified that the shock would drive him to do something foolish again.

“Yes, I know. Mom, Dad, don't worry,” Bennett said, his voice and expression surprisingly calm and steady. He seemed fine.

Frank: “Bennett, why don't we go back to the room and see the baby?”

“Yes, let's go see the baby. You're a father now, and you haven't even held your daughter yet,” Emma added, nodding eagerly.

Bennett followed Frank and Emma back to the hospital room.
