Chapter 4

Bianca felt even more guilty after Kallie’s accusations.

She knelt on the ground, bowing her head repeatedly and apologizing, refusing to get up no matter how much I tried to pull her.

I was in a rage, and I wanted to immediately uncover the white cloth to reveal the truth.

But if I did that, all my plans would be in vain.

So I had to hold back.

At that moment, a commotion suddenly came outside the room.

A large group of young people, all holding smartphones, ran into the room.

I had secretly informed Griffin’s students about the body donation and how he wanted his body to be used for medical teaching.

Some students took leave, others skipped class, all coming to witness this grand moment.

A girl with a ponytail and glasses pushed her phone’s camera in front of everyone and asked.

"Excuse me, has Mr. Whitney’s body donation ceremony started? We are his students and want to record this significant moment to post on the school’s promotional website.”

"Mr. Whitney is truly great. He dedicated his life to teaching, and after his passing, he chose to return to the school as our body donor, which is incredibly touching. I’ll set up a special section for Mr. Whitney in our school journal to highlight his selfless dedication," one student said.

"Which one of you is Mr. Whitney’s family? We also want to interview you. It’s thanks to the support of the family that Mr. Whitney could make this heroic behavior. You’re all wonderful, and I’ll make sure to publicize this. Maybe it will even make the headlines!" another student added.

...

The students coming in kept talking, recording, taking photos, and live-streaming.

Their enthusiasm left Bianca’s mother-in-law and the mistress dumbfounded.

Noticing their changing expressions and silence, I stepped in quickly to defuse the situation.

"These students are here because I invited them. They are very grateful for Griffin’s contributions and want to record this great moment," I said.

"Don’t blame Bianca. Griffin was also my teacher. He mentioned in an interview that he wanted to donate his body to the school for medical teaching. I just wanted to help him fulfill his wish, which is why Bianca signed the donation agreement.

"Moreover, I’ve asked the hospital and the school, and they don’t mind live-streaming the donation ceremony. Griffin had some fame while alive, and after making such a significant decision, how could we quietly donate his body without letting people know?

"Griffin often looked after me while he was at school. I’m as heartbroken as Bianca over his accident, but as the living, we can’t ignore the wishes of the deceased."

As I spoke, tears streamed down my face, making it seem as if I was truly overwhelmed with grief.

Bianca’s mother-in-law, who had been furious and was about to drag Bianca to vent her anger, found herself unable to continue when faced with me and the students.

She and Cecilia exchanged glances, both speechless.

After all, my face was full of tears and sorrow.

They found it difficult to continue their outburst against me.

Seeing that they were no longer making a scene, I signaled the medical university staff to handle Griffin’s body quickly.

"Griffin died in a car accident, so his body might be a bit disfigured. Please repair it before using it."

The staff waved their hands hurriedly.

"It’s no trouble at all. The body donors in our university haven’t been updated for over ten years, and students have been complaining. Mr. Whitney’s donation is a relief to us! I’ll report to the leaders and arrange for students to show our respect to him every year."

Then the medical university staff was about to uncover the white cloth from Griffin’s body and start handling the remains.

I saw Wayne and Cecilia becoming increasingly anxious but unable to think of a reasonable solution.

Bianca’s mother-in-law, too, was sweating nervously. Previously, she would force others into submission with tantrums and stubbornness, but now, with so many cameras around, she couldn’t bear to do it again.

Her expressions were varied, yet there was no sign of sorrow. Had I guessed it?

It seemed that apart from Bianca, who was unaware, everyone else knew about Griffin’s fake death and was helping him with this farce.

It meant that Bianca was the only victim in the show.

And she knew nothing about it.

Regardless of whether it was the previous life or this one, Bianca remained immersed in her grief over Griffin’s death.

I helped Bianca to a nearby bench and then watched the livestream by the ponytailed junior. I was shocked to see that eighty thousand people were watching the drama of Griffin’s body donation.

Filling in anger, I immediately took out my phone and called the president of the medical university and the director of the hospital.

After all, such an opportunity for positive publicity and self-promotion was something no high-ranking official would want to miss.

Sure enough, the president and the director soon arrived, wanting to witness the significant moment of Griffin’s body donation.

At this point, the number of viewers in the livestream had soared to 120 thousand, with the comments scrolling quickly.

They commented: [It’s said that Mr. Whitney is great, but I think Mr. Whitney’s wife is even greater. Even though she’s suffering tremendously, she still endures the grief to fulfill Mr. Whitney’s wish.]

[That’s right. Mr. Whitney’s wife looks like she’s about to faint from crying. I really want to give her a hug.]

[Why does it seem like only Mr. Whitney’s wife is sad? The other family members don’t seem to be grieving much.]

[It’s not that they’re not grieving, but they might not want to donate his body. After all, the elders might find it hard to accept.]

[Even so, I still want to express how impressive Mr. Whitney and his family’s spirit of dedication is!]

...

I thought of Griffin’s previous life. When he had a mistress and got her pregnant, he could have gone through the normal process of divorcing Bianca.

However, to maintain his image as a good husband and to keep his property from being divided, he disregarded Bianca’s feelings and forged a fake death that was completely beneficial to him.

While he enjoyed himself with his mistress and illegitimate child, my poor Bianca was left to die and be exploited. Even I, as his sister-in-law, wasn’t spared.

Griffin, who seemed virtuous, was a scoundrel.

Since Griffin cared so much about his image, I decided to let him experience what it was like for his persona to collapse in front of hundreds of thousands of viewers.

Just as the staff member from the medical university was about to uncover the white cloth, Cecilia suddenly stepped forward.

She blocked Griffin’s body, shouting.

"I won’t allow you to take Griffin’s body away!"

The staff looked puzzled.

"May I ask who you are?"

I snorted coldly.

"Cecilia, are you so overwhelmed with grief that your mind isn’t sober? You won’t allow it? May I ask what right you have to forbid this?"

I turned to the staff and said.

"Bianca has already signed the donation agreement. Please proceed."

The staff felt embarrassed, still stopping.

Cecilia, with red eyes, shouted.

"I’m Griffin’s good friend. We grew up together and are closer than a married couple!"

What a bold statement! It made me laugh in anger.

"No matter how close you are, you don’t have legal standing. I advise you to stop interfering with Mr. Whitney’s body donation at this important moment. Hundreds of thousands of netizens are watching. Bianca has already signed it. If you continue to cause trouble, you’ll be lambasted by the netizens even if Bianca doesn’t say anything!"

Sure enough, the comments in the livestream were filled with criticism of Cecilia for meddling. Seeing these comments, Cecilia’s face darkened.

I sighed and apologized to the staff.

"I’m sorry about the earlier situation. Bianca has already signed the agreement, so please proceed quickly. Otherwise, the effectiveness of preparing the body donor will diminish over time."

The staff agreed and prepared to uncover Griffin’s body.

At that moment, several live-streaming phones were also pointed at the white cloth.

However, the next moment, something that shocked hundreds of thousands of viewers happened.

When the staff uncovered the white cloth, Griffin suddenly sat up from the bed.

The junior student who was closest to the scene dropped her phone in shock.

"He’s alive!"
