"I—I didn't—" Shailene wanted to refute it, but Diamond didn't give her a chance to do so.
"But because you're in a bad mood, you told him that his life is worth nothing, and no amount of therapy will help. So he should just kill himself, right?" Diamond said ruthlessly. "He was a kid suffering from depression and self-esteem issues. He got bullied badly, and his parents sent him to your Dad's hospital where you worked after you graduated."
"Since he suffered from extrely low self-esteem, he kept on pitying himself until you got annoyed by him," Diamond said. "Realizing that he will not get better anyti soon, you started getting annoyed by his constant visit. No matter what you did, his depression never got better, and he kept his pity party."
"Then, that day… maybe you haven't had your morning coffee, or maybe you woke up at the wrong side of the bed, but you said a heartless— no, many heartless comnts to him when he was doing his therapy session with you," Diamond said. The image of Derik inside her head only got Diamond angrier about what Shailene did to that poor boy.
Shailene kept on shaking her head. She knew it was all true. It was her who killed that teenage boy with her sharp mouth. But she still wanted to forget it. She wanted to act like she did nothing wrong!
"Well, since you keep shaking your head like an idiot, then I will let you hear sothing I recover from that boy. This is his last voice recording before he commited suicide, just like what my brother Derik did."
Diamond fished out the phone from her blazer pocket and quickly found the voice recording of a fourteen-year-old boy. It was stored inside a small mory card inside the docunt that the agent gave to Diamond before, just to make sure that Diamond got everything ready for this big reveal.
—Recording—
Hello, this is Erik. If you— I an, Mom and Dad are listening to this recording right now, that ans I'm dead.
I know I'm not a good son, and I don't know if my death will affect you two. I hope you can forgive and forget about . I have been nothing but a failure for you two.
I want you to know that it's not your fault. It's my fault for being a failure. I've been trying my best not to be a burden and to be confident, but no matter how hard I try, I just know that I'm not good enough for this world.
But if you want to bla soone else for this, you can bla my psychologist, Miss Shailene Walsh.
She told yesterday that I'm a worthless piece of shit because I keep coming to her. She told I should just end myself because I kept pitying my life.
She also told that she got bored treating because there is no use in helping soone who's just born sick, and I'm only a burden to everyone around .
She's usually not an to , but maybe she's just having a bad day.
No, she's right. She's definitely right about this.
There is no use in helping a person who is born sick like . In the end, I will only be a burden to everyone, just like what she said.
So this is my last ssage to my family. I hope you two can forget .
Goodbye.
—Recording End—
Diamond waved her phone before Shailene's eyes to taunt her, "Do you rember everything now? I got this recording from one and only Erik's parents. They told that the court can't give them justice because of your father's connection, you bribed the judge and buried this case until nobody knows about this, and you can walk out without any guilt or sha."
"Really, how evil can you be, Shailene Walsh. You pushed a kid to end his own life, then tried to cover it up because you don't want your reputation and career to get ruined. What a scum," Diamond scoffed. "Now I understand why you overreacted when I told the story of my deceased brother. It's because you have the sa sin as Carter Fallingham."
"You may not know about Carter personally, but damn, you're basically the female version of him, hahahahaha!" Diamond laughed heartily for a while before her laugh suddenly stopped abruptly. Her gaze got colder, and her lips thinned. "And I hate everyone who acts just like Carter Fallingham. It makes want to kill them just like my father did to that bastard."
"No!" Shailene started shaking her head like a madwoman. The image of herself getting shot repeatedly because of what she did was utterly terrifying. "NO! NO! I'M NOT EVIL! I DIDN'T KILL THAT KID! HE KILLED HIMSELF!" Shailene yelled as she didn't want to die.
Diamond crouched in front of Shailene until they were at the sa eye level, then she put her finger gun on Shailene's chin, "I could kill you with one shot from this spot. I guarantee that your head will explode with your brains bursting out like a horrible pinata."
"Or do you want to shoot you in here?" Diamond moved his finger gun to the spot between Shailene's eyebrows, then she scoffed, "Heheh, it doesn't matter, in the end, you will die a grueso death, and you will probably et with Carter Fallingham in hell. You two can get to know each other, and maybe you can date him in hell!"
Shailene imagined all the grueso stuff that Diamond would do to her, and her stomach turned out of fear and disgust.
"Urp— uupp— URK!" Shailene retched a few tis, and Diamond quickly retreated by getting up and taking a step back. She watched as Shailene puked her guts on the floor.
Diamond grinned in satisfaction. Watching soone who acted like Carter Fallingham puke her guts out of fear was amusing and satisfying.
