The day the truth came to light, the whole family went insane.
*****
I'm dead.
On a silent, deserted mountain road, I was killed by a sports car that appeared out of nowhere.
The agony of having every bone in my body crushed was unforgettable, though thankfully my consciousness faded quickly, and the pain lasted only moments.
When I opened my eyes again, I found myself floating in mid-air as a spirit.
The sky was growing dark. I watched as the girl in the sports car ran out in panic, trembling as she reached out to check my breathing, then collapsed to the ground in terror.
She frantically pulled out her phone to make a call, crying as she said she had killed someone.
The moment she spoke, I immediately recognized her face.
It was my sister Hannah Edwards, though she wasn't my biological sister.
Less than half an hour later, Bella, who should have been on duty at the hospital, rushed to the scene.
She jogged over to Hannah's side, frowning as she looked at the pool of blood on the ground. "Didn't you tell me you were going out with coworkers? How did you end up racing cars in the mountains?"
Hannah sobbed as she threw herself into Bella's arms, her voice choked with tears. "I'm sorry, Mom. I just wanted to try out the new sports car. I never thought I'd kill someone. I don't want to go to prison!"
She cried while watching Bella's expression carefully.
Seeing her face soften, Hannah continued, "The general manager election is just a month away. If this gets out, my life will be completely ruined."
Upon hearing this, Bella's originally stern expression became gentler. She beckoned to Hannah, then playfully tugged at her ear.
She said, "You've never given me a moment's peace since you were little. You're in your twenties now—how can you still be so reckless?"
Though her words were scolding, there wasn't a trace of real reproach in her tone. Even I could hear the indulgence in her voice, let alone Hannah, who had always been good at reading people's moods.
She cried even harder, even saying through her tears that she would turn herself in and spend the rest of her life in prison.
She said this, but kept stealing glances at Bella's face the whole time.
Surely Bella wouldn't indulge Hannah this time, right?
After all, this was a human life.
But I was wrong.
Bella put on gloves and efficiently collected the items the corpse was carrying.
Phone, wallet, keys...
If she had just opened the wallet and looked, she would have discovered it was me.
But she didn't.
She coldly finished processing the scene and began using concentrated sulfuric acid to corrode my fingerprints.
Even in my spirit form, I felt a sharp pain in my fingertips.
My once-soft fingertips slowly revealed bloody bone under Bella's ministrations.
Yet her expression remained unchanged as she frowned at Hannah, who stood there in a daze.
She said, "What are you standing there for? Hurry up and call your father to come help!"
Would Cooper really help a murderer?
I was stunned. Cooper, who had always been upright and moral, surely wouldn't condone his daughter fleeing from justice, would he?
But once again, I was wrong.
At first, Cooper reacted just like Bella, angrily scolding Hannah for being reckless.
But when Hannah broke down crying, saying she should go to prison, his usually stern expression softened.
He sighed while helping Bella dispose of the evidence.
When Hannah backed up the sports car, my body was fully exposed before them.
It was a horrific sight.
My once delicate face had been crushed beyond recognition by the wheels, completely disfigured.
My exposed fingers had been corroded by the sulfuric acid into something grotesque.
