"We have the latest report from our station, regarding the death of Sophie Foster from the Foster Family. The Foster Family has officially declared that they will not pursue any criminal liability against anyone, holding Sophie herself responsible..."
Before the report was finished, the café was abuzz with voices, filled with heated discussions:
"Tsk tsk tsk... Even Sophie's own family can only swallow their anger!"
"What else could they do?"
...
The crowd went on, launching personal attacks on Sophie, speaking as if she was no longer alive, their words biting and unforgiving.
Ella Lacey pieced together the essence of it and decided not to go to the restroom. She sat down, her gaze meeting her daughter's calm demeanor, and said with a steady voice, "Cherline, are all their discussions true? Did Sophie really... die that way?"
"...Mm." Isabella Lindsey nodded.
"Are you sure?" Ella suddenly felt less thrilled, a little disappointed inside.
"Mm."
