After the conversation, Orion returned back to his room. He sat on the bed and reached out for his phone before also placing a call. The person he was trying to call was Abigail, a friend to Clara who had also betrayed her because she doesn't matter to him anymore.The truth was that the insider who had helped Orion pull off the scam that had been the beginning of Clara’s downfall was Abigail. He had found a way to manipulate Abigail, and with that, he used her to his advantage and pulled the strings. This was perfectly pulled off so that no suspicion was traced back to him or Abigail.When the call went through, there was a reply from the other end of the phone. "Hey sweet boy, it's been long since you've called me. Why calling me now?"She sounded so surprised when she spoke, and Orion, knowing she was just a fool looking for attention, replied, "Yeah, it has been long. I just want to ask you some few questions, and I want you to answer me."Abigail chuckled from the other end of th

Amelia stood up, her hands crossed over her chest. "I'm so desperate to see the crowd. Why did Lucas suddenly change his mind on not letting us out?"When Amelia asked that question, Clara was lost in thought, and when Amelia spoke for the second time by calling out Clara's name loud, Clara immediately snapped out of her thoughts as she replied. "Oh, sorry, I wasn't listening to you earlier. What did you say?"Amelia narrowed her eyes; she had thought that Clara had been listening to her, unknown to her she was just so stuck in another of her thoughts, making her words just blabs.Amelia took a deep breath before dropping the hands wrapped on her chest. "Here is the thing, I don't know why you always get lost in your thoughts—oh gosh—and secondly, why the hell is he giving us a tough time in this mansion? I'm sick and tired, though we have food on the steady and all we want, but freedom is restricted from us."Clara could clearly relate to what Amelia was saying, thus she only smiled

The moment the toxin passed through the woman’s body, she immediately fell asleep. She gently fell into Shinda’s arms, and so she was now in a deep sleep; if he hadn't recalled that he was with the tools, he would have killed her at that instant.He had brought the tools for cases where it wasn't necessary to kill his victims, thus he is a brilliant killer; but in some cases, killing would only make his mission difficult."Don't worry, this is the best time to have a good nap with your stinky shit." Shinda sneered darkly; he wanted her to have a piece of her own cake.Shinda left the woman in the toilet and was about to go out when, all of a sudden, two men stepped into the passage. They were the private security of the woman, and they had noticed that she had taken too long in the toilet; with that, they had come to check on her.The moment they saw Shinda coming out from the restroom which they had suspected their mistress had gone into, they froze in that instant."Fuck, this will

Thomas was the one driving; he took in a deep breath before shifting his gaze to Shinda. “You could have been caught. What the hell are you thinking?”“It isn’t my fault, it’s just that I can’t identify your car, and additionally you know I can’t just go to the mansion without authentication, which means if I had taken the other path I could have still been caught.” Shinda defended himself with a brief explanation.What he had said was the truth; if he had used the previous plans he had in mind—which was using another entrance into the mansion—he could have been caught on HD, and with that, things could have been game over for him.Shinda sneered, “You know I never lose. Here is the sample you asked for.”Shinda brought out the glass object and handed it over to Thomas.Thomas took it, then dropped it beside him. “You’ve done a good job. If you had messed things up, then you would have been messed up, and your family could have paid the price.”Shinda gritted his teeth, but this time

Shinda’s fists clenched. He wished he could stop the car at this instant, or perhaps rush to the airport, or call to confirm if his wife and daughter are truly fine, but he couldn’t. He was just so lost in his thoughts that everything felt like he was hallucinating.“You don’t have to panic, and I know you are thinking of if you should kill me here or not. Anyways, I’m not here to fight you, and if you really want to get to the airport in time to save your family, you have to make me live so I can take you there. If you kill me here, this car will detonate and we’re both gonna die,” the man explained, sneering like a devil.He then continued. “My body is connected to a pressure detector detonator, whereby once my heart stops beating, it will activate the boom. So which do you choose? Do you want to save your family, or want to die alongside me?”The man’s eyes were staring at the upper mirror above his aura as he gazed at Shinda from the back seat. Shinda didn’t know what to do, and h
