My mystery lover novel (Richard and Amy)
Chapter 367 Life Is Wonderful

Amy became silent hearing what Sarah said. She was lost in thought and Sarah was watching her quietly.

"Well, what should I call you?" Sarah carefully asked.

"Call me Amy. Sarah, who else are there in your family?" Amy asked.

"I have a younger sister and a younger brother, both of whom were born to my stepmother. They were all very nice and give me everything to eat." When Sarah talked about her family, she was very happy. "What did the judge ask you and what did you admit?" Amy felt Sarah was pitiful. She was taken advantage of, but she was still grateful to her family.

"The judge asked me whether I killed that person. I said yes. He asked me how I killed him. I said I used the quilt to suffocate him to death. My mother told me to say so." Although Sarah's eyes were not very big, they were bright and pure.

"Well, don't talk too much with an idiot, or you'll get stupid," said a passer-by to Amy dismissively.

"I'm not an idiot. I'm not an idiot!"

Sarah knew that woman was talking about her, so she quickly denied it.

"If you are not an idiot, who is an idiot? You're a scapegoat! Why don't you take the crime for me?" the woman said and walked away, but Sarah chased up. She caught the woman and shouted, "I am not a scapegoat. I am not an idiot!"

"Let go of me! You fool. You're an idiot!" The woman was angry, and pushed Sarah to the ground.

Sarah cried. She cried sadly because since she was sent to prison. Neither her mother nor her family had come to see her. Did they no longer love her?

"Get up and stop crying. We're ready to rest." Amy pulled Sarah up. The prison officers blew the whistle.

The women prisoners all went back to their rooms as soon as they heard the whistle.

Sarah also got back to her own room. Amy was pulled back by Paige. Paige told Amy that everyone knew Sarah's affairs. Sarah was sentenced to life. Everyone knew she was a scapegoat, so Paige asked Amy not to meddle in it.

"Well, there are too many unfair things in the world. It doesn't matter," Paige sighed.

Amy nodded. Anything could happen in the world. So, sometimes, Amy thought she was not the unluckiest one.

The next day was Saturday. Amy was woken up by a prison officer early in the morning, saying that someone had come to see her.

When Amy went inside the visitation area, she saw Eliana wiping her tears. When she saw Amy coming out, she quickly picked up the phone.

"Amy, Amy, sorry to let you suffer. It's our fault that we did not protect you!" Eliana kept crying. She had long wanted to visit Amy, but her husband and Richard refused to let her come to the prison, fearing that she would be too sad.

"Mother, it's not your fault. I did not listen to Richard so I ended up like this. I did not think Allison would be so cruel." Amy was also very regretful for being too conceited. Her arrogance had made herself suffer twice.

"Your mother-in-law wanted to come visit you too, but I stopped her. She has heart disease, and I was afraid she couldn't stand watching you like this. Her health is getting worse and worse," Eliana sighed. Even if you are kind, there will always be someone wanting to hurt you.

"Mom, don't let my mother-in-law visit me. She will be very sad. Sorry to let you worry about me." Amy was heartbroken when she heard that her mother-in-law had a heart attack.

Eliana observed her daughter keenly, as if she could not see her enough. She wondered why her daughter's life was so hard. She wanted to go to prison for her daughter.

They had talked for a while until the time was up. Eliana had to leave, and Amy went back to her room. She didn't need to work on weekends and she could go for a walk, but Amy wasn't in the mood. "Why? Did you feel bad when you saw your family?" Viola came back and saw Amy lying on the bed.

"Well, kind of. Viola, is your family in R City?" Amy asked casually.

"I have no family. My man killed all my families, so I killed him." Viola was very calm when she said this. She had been in prison for many years, so she had seen lots of prisoners depressed like Amy. "I'm sorry." Amy did not expect she would mention Viola's sore spot.

"It's fine. At first I felt unfair. He killed all my families, but I only killed him. Why should I go to prison? But then I decided to let it go. Life is very short. I shouldn't waste time thinking so much." Viola lay beside Amy. She was at most forty years old, but she looked haggard.

"Viola, don't you want to go out?" Amy barely spoke to Viola.

"Of course I do? I'll have more freedom outside. But by the time I get out, I will be too old to support myself. So I would rather stay here!" Viola laughed, but then she cried again.

Amy wiped the tears for her. Every woman here had a story, and no one had lived happily. If they had been happy, they wouldn't have ended up here.

"Amy, let's go out for a walk. It's getting blue to be here all the time. What a precious weekend. Let's go enjoy the sunbath." Viola got up. She took Amy and went out for a walk. "Well, you'll feel better when you enjoy the sunshine. Come on Viola, let's go replace Paige." Amy let Viola hold her hand, and they went out of the prison.☐☐☐☐☐
