“I’m asking you: where is she?”
Gale was still smiling. “Didn’t I tell you? She has always been beside you. Zach, you’re smart. You should know that there aren’t
that many coincidences in the world, right? Why would the black market have a female corpse all of a sudden? It even had a
kidney that was a match for Catherine! That woman had also donated her kidney once and only had one left. Coincidentally, she
was also pregnant.”
“You… You b*stard! Even though she’s harmless and your sister in everything but blood?!”
“You’re still mad? Didn’t I tell you to call the police? I said she got dismembered even though she was pregnant and was really
pitiful, didn’t I? But you said that it wasn’t necessary, and you threw her into sulphuric acid.
“You’re also the one who refused to call her and let her wander around alone outside. Seriously, if you had called her that night,
you would have noticed that her phone was in the trunk of your car. You know, the torso you carried around in your car was Stella
herself. Look. Didn’t I return her to you right from the start?”
“You b*stard! I’ll kill you!” Zach’s eyes burned with hate as he charged at Gale, but a police officer caught him.
Gale just laughed, but his amusement did not reach his eyes. “Zach, do you know why she followed me to the snowy plains next to
the abandoned factory? Because I told you that you were going to propose to her there. She was so happy, and her eyes sparkled.
While I had my hired hand kill her, she kept begging me not to, because she was pregnant. She said that she was not going to
compete with Catherine anymore and that she would leave. She even told me in the end not to tell you about this. Even when she
died, she did not want to be a burden to you.”
“That’s not true… Starling, you’re not… You’re not a burden to me.” Zach seemed to have had all his strength seep out of his
body. He fell to the floor, and his eyes were empty.
“Where did you throw the other parts of her body?”

“Oh? You want to know?” Gale smiled at him. “Beg for it, Zach. If you do, I’ll tell you where I threw her head.”
Enough. Seriously. Stop.
I bent down and wanted to hug Zach.
I never hated him.
I just wanted him to live a good life, so I did not want to see him beg someone for something for me.
There was once when he carried me when I was burning from fever. It was snowing at that time. My medical fees were only dozens of dollars, but he did not have the money, and he had to go begging for it door to door. I did not want him to go through such a thing again.
But Zach did not do it.
And no matter how the police tried to get Gale to spill, Gale refused to tell anyone where he hid my head.
He kept his lips sealed until Zach fell to his knees in front of him.
“Please, Gale. All of this is my fault. It has nothing to do with her. Please tell me. Where is she?”
“Hahaha! Zach, you’re actually begging for her head? Hahaha! To think you’d end up in this state, Zach!
“You’ve always acted as if you were above everyone else. Your life while you were young might have been full of hardship, but after that, you had a smooth sail in life. Well? How does it feel to lose everything and have someone else walk all over you? Does it
hurt? But I still won’t tell you where she is.
“Still, I’ll give you a hint. The mute girl you’ve been missing dearly has always been beside you.
