The Brave Maid Who Smashed Her Boss's Coffin to Save Her Life
Previously: When a young maid violently smashes open her boss's coffin during a funeral, the shocked mourners think she's lost her mind—until a terrifying whisper echoes from inside the wood.
The Hidden Poison
As the broken wood was cleared, Emma was gently lifted from the coffin, weak and barely able to open her eyes. Mia supported her head while Eleanor wept with a mixture of joy and terror. The chapel erupted into chaotic whispers.
She's alive! Call an ambulance immediately!
Eleanor cried out to the stunned crowd. But Arthur quickly intercepted the funeral director, his voice sharp and frantic.
This is a medical anomaly! A post-mortem spasm! We must keep this quiet to avoid a media scandal. Let me take her to our private family clinic!
Mia stood up, physically blocking Arthur from reaching the weak heiress.
No! You tried to bury her alive, Arthur! I saw how you rushed this entire funeral. You didn't even allow a proper autopsy!
Arthur’s face contorted with pure hatred, stepping closer to the young maid.
You are a maid! You know nothing!
He snarled. But Mia held her ground. As the distant wail of sirens grew louder, Arthur’s panic escalated. Mia, watching his every move, noticed him slipping a small, amber glass vial into his sleeve.
He's trying to hide something!
Mia screamed, pointing at his hand. Arthur panicked and lunged toward Emma, but two strong mourners tackled him to the ground. The amber vial slipped from his grip, shattering on the marble floor and releasing a sweet, almond-scented liquid.
That is the poison!
Mia declared, recognizing the scent. Eleanor stared at Arthur with utter disgust.
Arthur... how could you do this to our family?
