Help Him When the Time Comes
The incident put Eric in a horrible light, so his trial soon came. Jenny didn’t go to court for his hearing,
but she did see some news about it from the media.
Eric thought he still had a chance to escape, so he continued to deny his guilt in court until the
prosecution presented the data of the people who died under his hands. With that, he was utterly
silenced.
It wasn’t because of guilt that he decided to shut up, but because he understood one thing. If the
prosecution could obtain the information, it meant there was a traitor in the Dafoes who had leaked his
wrongdoings to the prosecution.
When he was still contemplating who the traitor could be, Pete appeared in court as a witness, and
everything became clear to him instantly. Pete testified that he saw Eric kill those people with his own
eyes, and he also revealed many of Eric’s other illegal activities.
Eric didn’t refute any of it. From the moment Pete appeared in court, he knew he couldn’t turn the
tables this time. But at that moment, he didn’t care about his crimes being brought to justice in court.
He stared at Pete and asked blankly, “Why?”
He couldn’t understand why, as a Dafoe himself, Pete would do something that harmed the interests of
the Dafoe family. Didn’t he know that speaking out about these things could be fatal to the Dafoes?
“I just think that the Dafoes should take a different path.” Indeed, the former Dafoe family did all sorts of
evil deeds and ruled the city, but so what? In the end, nothing good would await them, considering all
the sins they’d committed.
Pete wouldn’t let this opportunity to change his family for the better pass him by. Eric understood the
meaning behind his words and chuckled, not offering any rebuttal.
The verdict for Eric came out quickly. His deeds were unforgivable, and he was sentenced to death,
unsurprisingly.
Before Eric left, he said to Pete, “I hope the Dafoes can flourish under your leadership, and I hope you
won’t regret your decision today.”
Pete didn’t speak. He knew in his heart he would never regret it. Even if the future development of the
Dafoes could not compare to what they’d achieved now, at least it would be honest and upright.
Three months before Eric’s execution, Lynette met him once, but the two didn’t say anything to each
other.
“Sometimes, I wonder…What’s so different about me compared to Graham? Why did you always want
to escape from me?” Eric couldn’t help but ask, unwilling to accept his fate.
Lynette glanced at him, not knowing what to say to him. He was going to die, yet he was still so hung
up about such a thing.
“Emotions are always hard to explain. If you weren’t so obsessive, maybe we wouldn’t be in this
situation today,’ Lynette answered indifferently. She had no feelings for Eric, even after all those years
by his side. She had cursed him more than once for his gruesome deeds and knew he wouldn’t have a
good end.
Eric laughed lightly. “Yes, but I can’t help it. The first time I saw you, I wanted you as my wife.” He didn’t
even understand how Lynette ended up with Graham, even though he’d known her first.
“It’s useless to talk about these things now. Since you’ve come to see me for the last time, there’s one
thing I need your help with.” Eric smiled and didn’t continue with meaningless ponderings anymore.
Lynette remained silent, waiting for him to continue.
“I always thought Pete didn’t have much ambition, so I never thought much of him. But now it seems
that I was wrong. He wants the Dafoe family to transform, which is a good thing, but he doesn’t have
the ability to do it. I hope you can ask Jenny to help him when the time comes.”
