"Silly child, mother's crime is punishable by death. How can I not die? If I can wait for you to grow up before I die, I will be completely satisfied." Meng Shaomei meant every word. After murdering Dong Anni and Su Xingmo, she had been haunted by nightmares, always fearing the day her deeds would be exposed. She had lived in fear for so many years, and now that day had finally arrived. Being sentenced to death, she no longer felt fear, but rather relief.
She felt a peace she had never experienced before.
"Mom, knowing it could lead to death, why did you do it?" Bai Wenxuan could not understand why his mother had dared to kill.
"Because your mother did not want to be poor for her whole life, did not want to live a life in the shadows. Your mother wanted to be rich, to be seen as a high-class lady. I wanted to prove those who looked down on your mother wrong. I wanted you and your sister to live superior lives!" It was all due to greed.
