I saw Finn's hand bleeding profusely, so I wanted to bring him to the hospital. But he kept insisting that he didn't want to go, claiming that the pain made him feel at ease.

I forced him to go to the hospital with Lauren.

In the car, he looked pained and said to me, "I like Beatrice. I've liked her since we were teenagers." Finn's words didn't surpriseat all.

"How did you meet her?" I asked Finn as I drove.

Finn leaned back in his seat with a grim expression and said in a low voice, "We went to the sschool. She's three years older than me. I started school early, so she was only two years above"In high school, I had a year with her before she left for college. I hoped to finish high school quickly, then take the scollege entrance exam as her and go to Foswood." Finn's words were naive, revealing his enduring affection. After all these years, he remained true to his feelings, which was rare to see these days.

Lauren listened attentively but didn't interrupt.

"But I didn't take school seriously enough. I didn't do well the first year and had to repeat a grade. During that year, Beatrice was already a senior in college and was doing an internship. I ended up getting into a college in Xyris and studied business management there for three years. By the tI was a senior, I heard about Beatrice's family facing one problem after another- first with Keller's Dairy, then her grandmother, and later, her mother." "Since all those things happened in quick succession, why didn't anyone realize something was wrong back then?" Lauren murmured.

"It's not that no one realized. It's just that people tend to ignore things that don't concern them," Finn sighed.

"I also heard she had a boyfriend, Gabriel. He was the eldest son of the Russell family in Gerby. Honestly, he had a good reputation, and their relationship seemed strong," Finn continued.

"But damn, everything was a facade. I heard that Beatrice was admitted to a mental hospital, and Gabriel attested that she was mentally ill. He's just a hypocritical scoundrel, no different from his father-in-law." "What? Are you saying Beatrice's boyfriend at that talso said she had mental health issues?" Lauren becvisibly unsettled. "Why was she so unlucky?" Finn fell silent, and it was evident that his emotions were tumultuous.

After what seemed like a considerable adjustment, he continued, "Honestly, I was in deep pain back then. Once, I drank to drown my sorrows with Alvin. Weet were both half-drunk and ended up confessing all kinds of things. Alvin gavean earful and asked why I liked a girl from the Chandler family. He said they were no good. We argued, and he toldhe suspected that his dad's death was related to Byron." "When did he start thinking that?" I asked Finn.

"We were in high school at that time. I didn't believe it at all, but Alvin shared the details with me. After we talked it over, the case seemed more and more suspicious.

"The reason I said she wouldn't go insane is that saw her the year her mother died. I secretly attended her mother's cremation ceremony, and she was sobbing uncontrollably. That day, she held her mother's urn, locked herself in a small room for a long tand ignored anyone who tried to console her. "In the end, Gabriel managed to get her out of there, and she held on to the urn until the burial at the cemetery. She placed the urn in the tomb herself.

"Afterwards, the Chandler family hosted a dinner to thank all the attendees of her mother's funeral.

She thanked all the guests personally, and she seemed vel.nepletely normal. How could someone soposed suddenly go insane?" Finn consistently emphasized this point. I looked at him and asked, "You said you saw her three days before she was sent to the mental hospital. Where did you see her?" It was just a casual inquiry.

Finn quickly responded, "I saw her at the hospital." "A worker of ours was injured that day, and I took him to the hospital. I saw her thanking a young nurse on the staircase near the ward. I thought about greeting her, but they kept talking, so I didn't say anything.

"But three days later, word on the street was that she had gone to the mental hospital, allegedly for going crazy and stabbing Hazelyn. But something just didn't feel right." "Have you discussed this with Sean?" I asked Finn.
