Nobody had told Alix that auntie Mo had a bit of an overly dramatic nature, even more than she had portrayed so far. She was like an actress in a tv drama.
At the police station, when Alix arrived to give her statement as a witness, she found her auntie Mo with her left hand in a cast. Her face was pale, eyes had bags beneath and she looked sickly, in a way. One could only imagine the kind of suffering she had endured all this time.
Alix couldn't help wondering if this was the same woman that had planted flowers with her the day before.
While Auntie Mo looked sickly, Jing Hee was seething. Her eyes were narrowed and her lips tightly drawn. She was glaring at auntie Mo as if they were enemy soldiers from different states.
Both women were not alone and they were accompanied by lawyers and family members. On auntie Mo's side was her husband, chairman Heng, Tai Change and grandma Tai.
