When She Stops Playing Nice by Hale Saxon

Chapter 62

Gina wanted to refute, but she could not explain why she instinctively wanted to investigate this matter, so she did not say anything

Dylan quickly sorted out the medical records of Emily stored in the hospital archives at that time.

Gina flipped through them.

It was late-stage liver cancer.

Gina also noticed that there were a few photos of Emily in the documents.

The Emily in this photo was worlds apart from the family photo Gina had seen in the photo gallery room of the Jackson family’s house.

She was so skinny that she was barely recognizable with only skin and bones remaining.

Gina thought. No wonder Emily was unwilling to leave behind any photos back then.

Gina lifted her eyes and asked Dylan. “Did Emily give permission for these photos to be taken?”

Dylan shook his head and said guiltily, “Nope…”

“How were they taken then!” Gina asked.

They were secretly taken by the team treating Emily at that time, Dylan said. “Emily’s illness suddenly acted up, and her condition worsened very quickly. Despite using the most advanced medical techniques, equipment, and medicinal herbs, her condition was still completely beyond help in as short as just one month. The team thought Emily’s case was relatively rare, so they took some photos to observe the development of her condition and the changes in her physical condition”

“And then?” Gina asked. “Did they find out anything from the research?”

Dylan smiled and said, “Nothing”

Gina was left speechless. Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ (ꜰind)ɴʘvel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“At that time, you weren’t around,” Dylan said. “If you were around, you might have been able to save Emily.”

Gina suddenly had a question.

She thought, Three years ago, where was 1? What was I doing? I can’t remember. I can’t recall.

All she could remember was being brought back to Xax Village by her godmother, Ruby,

Gina collected her thoughts and continued to look at the photos. Suddenly, she felt a sense of familiarity with Emily’s appearance before her death. She suddenly widened her eyes.

She remembered that the family who had once adopted her also had someone die in a similar manner before they were all wiped out. When Gina learned of their death, she was in a daze and went to the funeral parlor. As their foster daughter, she bid them farewell for the last time.

The memories gradually overlapped. C i n a instinctively tightened her grip on the photos, thinking, ‘Could it be… Could it be that the extermination of the family back then was also related to the Jackson family?

Dylan leaned in to take a look. Other than noticing that Emily was frail and skinny to a terrifying extent in the photos, he did not see anything unusual. “Why’s wrong?” he asked.

“She was poisoned.” Gina replied.

“Ah?” Dylan said. “But no poison was detected in her body at that time.”

“The poison she was given wasn’t an ordinary one,” Gina said, “It likely came from a top expert. That’s why conventional examination methods couldn’t detect it.” did not know the name of the poison.

Dylan was shocked. “It’s you again. You can figure it out at a glancel”

So what if I can figure it out? Gina thought. “Emily is already dead

She was not in a good mood. It was unknown if she was feeling pity for the family that had adopted her or for Emily.

If she hadn’t been lucky enough to leave the house that day, she would have died in that massacre too. She was only ten years old at the time. Even though she had a more mature mindset than others her age, she could not save them.

It was precisely because of her quest for the truth that Gina began her journey of training and growth.

For some reason, Dylan felt that the atmosphere was a little strange.

Gina looked grim, as if she had fallen into some painful memories.

“Are you okay?” Dylan asked.

I’m fine. Gina said. Tll take these documents with me.”

“Okay,” Dylan said.

Gina left Prover Hospital.

She did not intend to tell Gabriel about her investigation into Emily’s cause of death for the time being as she felt it might come across as meddling in other people’s affairs,

However, from the looks of things, the extermination back then might not only be related to the Miller family, but also to the Jackson family.

Gina felt that the family that adopted her back then must have known some secrets that no one knew, leading to their extermination to silence them.

She thought. What about Emily? Was she also killed because of the same reason? What kind of secret is it after all?’

The extermination that year had shocked the entire country. Of course, the suspected criminal was caught, but Gina could tell that the so-called criminal was just a scapegoat manipulated by the real mastermind behind the scenes.

In fact, shortly after being imprisoned, the scapegoat waited for the right moment before taking his own life.

At that time, some people discussed and thought that this criminal took his own life due to fear of receiving punishment.

But Gina did not think so.

Because in this world, dead people were the only ones who could not reveal secrets.

Gina sat back in the car thoughtfully.

Michael called Gina, saying, “Gina, I have some progress on the investigation you asked me to do regarding the fire at the Miller family’s old residence.”

The fire destroyed everything, including evidence.

Otherwise, Michael wouldn’t have needed to investigate for so long.

This was also the evil intention of the arsonist.

“I checked the surroundings on the day of the fire one by one and found no suspicious individuals,” Michael said. “Therefore, the arson incident this time should have been done by someone within the Miller family.”

Gina was not surprised. She was considering who was the most suspicious person.

= 0

It was possible that the Miller family wanted to set fire to kill her alone, but she was not the only one at home that day. Her brothers, who were preparing to go out for work, were also at home.

First of all, she ruled out the possibility that her six brothers were involved. Gina found them unintelligent and couldn’t make good judgments, which caused them to be fooled by Olivia the angelic b i t c h.

But they wouldn’t go as far as setting a fire to kill her and themselves in the process. On that day, aside from Olivia not being at home, Ella was at the hospital, accompanying Phillip, who was suffering from a stroke, so she wasn’t at home either.

Gina was awakened from her nap by the smoke that day. By the time she woke up, the fire had already spread significantly. Her six brothers were running around in panic like headless flies. She was the one who rescued them from the fire one by

one.

She made them unscathed, but they didn’t care at all whether she lived or died. After that, they went about their business as if nothing had happened. Gina had to manage everything on her own. Before she fainted from carbon monoxide poisoning. she called for emergency help for herself.

Gina also thought about the incident of Phillip’s oxygen tank being tampered with. She was certain that it was not negligence or scheming by the hospital staff because it was impossible.

There was only one plausible explanation then. Someone within the Miller family had tampered with it.

Gina smiled sarcastically, thinking, “It seems that the Miller family isn’t as peaceful as they appear on the surface!

Gina felt that these things were definitely related to Olivia, but she was certain that Olivia couldn’t have accomplished them alone. She thought. There must be someone helping Olivia, just like how she arranged people at school to target me. Within the Miller family, who could be Olivia’s lackeys?’
