Relatives and friends tried to console me, but I shook my head.

"No, it's all my fault. Mom called to tell us about her illness, and I should have gone with you. I shouldn't have stayed back just because Mom and Lilian don't like me and always scold me."

The relatives and friends looked at each other in disbelief, not expecting this side of Annie and Lilian.

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Lilian's voice came from the doorway, accompanied by Annie.

They had known that Logan had faked his death, so they weren't deeply saddened. Furthermore, Annie was unwell, which is why they arrived late. They didn't expect to hear me tarnishing their reputation.

Trembling, Annie approached me. "Logan had the accident because of you. You couldn't resist your cravings, and you caused his death. But now you're putting the blame on me!"

"If Logan knew about this, he would be heartbroken!"

Lilian snorted, "It's you. You always liked to boss Logan around, telling him what to buy. Strawberries are your favorite fruit. Before the accident, he called me, saying he was buying fruit for you!"

Four:

Sobbing, I looked guilty as I said, "Mom, if this makes you feel better, I can accept your version of events."
