At this moment, Charlie realized that the shocking news was about William.


    The chat group of friends from the orphanage erupted in chaos today.


    No one could have predicted that just yesterday they had enjoyed a reunion, only to learn today that two of their friends from the orphanage had passed away.


    Jeff’s death wasn’t a surprise; they were all aware of his true nature and actions, so there was little sorrow for him.


    However, the news about William hit them like a tidal wave. They never imagined that William, who had a reputation for exploiting others, would be revealed as a murderer.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    He had killed both his girlfriend and her lover!


    Lisa reacted with a tearful emoticon in the group chat, eximing, “Why did William have to go this far? Even if his girlfriend was unfaithful, he shouldn’t havemitted such a terrible act!”


    Someone else chimed in, “Sigh, while William was never the most likable person, it’s hard not to feel a bit sorry for him. He loved his girlfriend deeply, but this is how she repaid him.”


    “Will William face the death penalty for killing two people?”


    “The news reported that he turned himself in. He might receive a lighter sentence since he didn’t kill for money or malicious intent. He witnessed his girlfriend cheating right in front of him. The court may show some sympathy when deciding his charges.”


    “Hmm, it’s likely he’ll get the death penalty, or at best a death sentence with a reprieve. But even if he gets a reprieve, his life as he knew it is over.”<fnc15f> Updates are released by find?novel</fnc15f>


    Lisa sighed, “Mrs. Lewis just heard the news and has locked herself in her room. She must be heartbroken right now.”


    Charlie felt a wave of sympathy for Mrs. Lewis.


    No matter how the children turned out after leaving the orphanage, Mrs. Lewis had raised them as if they were her own. Today, she lost two of them.


    After a moment of silence, Charlie suggested, “Lisa, should we go visit Mrs. Lewis and keep herpany?”


    “No, Charlie, I think Mrs. Lewis needs some time alone to process this.”


    “Alright then…” Charlie replied, letting out a sigh.


    He never expected William to end up like this.


    While he found William annoying, he also recognized the tragedy of his situation.


    Yet, in a way, William had brought this upon himself.


    Often, people fall victim to their own greed.


    Charlie decided to mute the chat group; he didn’t want to hear any more about the situation today.

    Meanwhile, the family that faced the most severe repercussions was the Webb family.


    They endured relentless criticism and condemnation fromizens across the country, and the bacsh only continued to grow.


    The situation worsened when news broke about their hiring of cybertroopers, which further inmed public anger towards them.


    Lord Webb was nearly driven to a breaking point from rage and stress. Although he had undergone emergency resuscitation, he currently remained in a deepa.


    Xenia, Donald’s wife, was emotionally shattered by the loss of her brother and sister-inw, feeling the weight of their family legacying to an end. In her distress, she locked herself in her room, smashing everything in sight to release her frustration.
