Arsen felt like he was watching a thriller right now. Without realizing it, he held his breath when all that could be heard was silence. His eyes remained fixed on the computer screen, which showed nothing but a highway with many vehicles passing by.

Then a woman’s slightly hoarse laugh rang out. Arsen and Freddy got goosebumps hearing that chilling laugh.

“You want to play games with me?”

Thud!

That accent! Arsen had heard it before. The British accent that had come from Claire’s mouth when

    “Rose? How is that possible? Were you the one who tortured Emily too?” Josh asked, confused, his face still facing forward, not daring to turn his head to the side. "Nothing is impossible in this world, honey. As long as God never sleeps, your eyeballs could even move to your feet if He wanted them to." Rose giggled for a moment, making the silence of that night feel strange. "Oh, actually, I really hate torture. But since I found this weapon in the seat crease, I want to mess with you." She laughed happily at having succeeded in scaring Josh. “You’re a total psychopath!” Josh hissed angrily.“Ugh, don’t call me a psychopath. I’d rather spend my time at the salon or sunbathing on the beach than seeing blood. Eww, blood makes me sick,” Rose replied, shuddering. Josh tried to process what Rose had said. This girl’s personality was completely different from the one who had tortured Emily. He saw an opening here to take her down. After gauging the right moment, he grabbed Rose’s han

  • His Broken Angel    38. The Plan Succeeded

    "Are you ready to carry out our plan? I’ve already told Leo and Chloe to set a trap for Arsen tonight," Sergio said, watching Claire as she walked toward the lockers."Yep! I’m going over there first. You should leave if you don’t want Claire to get suspicious about us being together," Josh replied, then walked toward the lockers where Claire was standing. Josh approached Claire with a single rose in his right hand. Once he was right behind her, he held the rose up in front of Claire’s face, startling her so much that she immediately turned around to face Josh.“Josh?” Claire said, furrowing her brow. “A beautiful flower for a very beautiful girl,” Josh said, then winked at Claire.“What’s wrong with you? Why are you flirting with me?” Claire asked, playfully hitting Josh’s arm.He laughed at Claire’s reaction, which still looked startled. “I’ve told you that I love you, Claire. Can’t you tell from the way my eyes always look at you with so much love?” Claire immediately grew som

    The anger that had nearly boiled over, slowly subsided and vanished completely after hearing that confession.[There are so many things I want to tell you, son. Can we set aside some time together to share stories? I really miss those days.] Arsen couldn’t hold back his smile this time, not caring that his vision was starting to blur. “Of course! I’ll take a week off and we can tour Portland. I’ll show you the beauty of autumn along the Willamette River. You’ll definitely love it—the air here is so clean and cool.” A chuckle sounded on the other end of the line. [Dad can’t wait to see it. Alright, son. I’m heading out now. The sooner the better, right? See you.] After that, the call ended.“So? What’s up? You look happy,” Leo asked as soon as Arsen moved the phone away from his ear with a broad smile. “Turns out Claire was right. Forgiving and letting go really is very difficult. But once I was able to do it, my heart felt truly at peace,” Arsen replied, his face beaming.Leo gentl

  • His Broken Angel    36. The Phone Call

    Leo clenched his jaw and balled his fists. “You’re a total asshole! You were pretending to be Rose?” James just gave a wry smile. “I could have killed you while you were asleep. Even that guy named Jack.”Leo didn’t know what to say. He couldn’t act rashly when facing James, because it would surely affect Claire. He couldn’t use a weapon. So the only option that crossed his mind was to handcuff James’s hands to stop him from going any further. After a brief scuffle, Leo finally managed to subdue James, though his arm and forehead were slashed by a knife. He was panting as if he’d just run a marathon. It turned out James was getting stronger. James had cursed him with the harshest words, but then lost consciousness after Claire took over. He hurriedly called Paul on his cell phone. “Paul, we’ve got a big problem now.”***Arsen was lost in thought near the glass wall of his apartment. After James had suddenly attacked Andreo by pretending to be Rose earlier, they agreed to give Clai

    “Claire, calm down. Don’t force yourself to dwell on the past. Take a deep breath, and exhale slowly. Come on, you can do it,” Paul said, giving her instructions to help her regain her composure.Claire followed the doctor’s advice, just as she had done when she was with Arsen. “Do you feel calmer now?” Paul asked.“My head is spinning so badly,” Claire complained, holding the side of her head.“Alright, you should rest for now. We’ll resume the therapy tomorrow,” Paul said as he took a small syringe filled with clear liquid and injected it into Claire’s arm. “Now we should all leave this room so Claire can rest and clear her mind,” Paul suggested as he packed up his equipment. Leo smiled at Claire briefly, then left the room, followed by Andreo.“You have to be strong, Claire. You have to believe that you can control your alter egos so the therapy process succeeds quickly. The most important thing is to confront James, and you’ll find peace within your heart. Be certain that you a

  • His Broken Angel    34. The Dream

    “Emily! How dare you, James!” Leo shouted as he lunged at James, but he was too slow—James immediately parried Leo’s attack. Andreo hugged James from behind and locked his arms, but James was so strong that Andreo’s energy was immediately drained. Meanwhile, the blond man quickly found the crook of James’s arm and jabbed the syringe there, causing James to curse angrily and rail against the blond man. “Leo, help me! I can’t take it anymore!” Andreo’s muffled scream left Leo momentarily torn between choosing Emily or helping the man. But in the end, he chose to help Andreo. “Paul, please take Emily to the hospital,” Leo pleaded as he helped Andreo restrain James’s thrashing. “No, you’re the one who has to take her. That way I can treat Claire as soon as possible,” Paul replied, holding back James’s increasingly frantic movements.Leo finally obeyed Paul’s words. He hurried over to Emily and untied the rope binding her body. He didn’t dare pull out the knife—it would only make thi

    Leo stared at Arsen for a moment before setting the can down on the table. “Rose. She’s Dutch, 24 years old, does whatever she wants, flirty, and she’s the one keeping James from wreaking havoc everywhere. She’s like the one who keeps all of Claire’s alter egos in check so they don’t cross the line

    Finally, after spending a day and a night at the hospital, Arsen took Claire back to his apartment. After giving it some more thought, he decided to pretend he knew nothing. After all, it wouldn’t be fair to Claire if he suddenly distanced himself from her. They needed to sort out all these issues

    “This little bitch hit me with that lamppost,” Claire said, nodding toward the lamppost lying near the sofa. “So a few scrapes aren’t a big deal, right?” she continued, pressing the blade against Emily’s neck, causing the girl to scream in terror and beg the two men for help. “Claire! Claire, lis

    Once again, Claire was taken aback by Emily’s words. She had no idea that Josh was Emily’s older brother. All this time, she’d only known that Josh lived alone because both his parents had passed away. It turned out there were many things she didn’t know about her best friend. Well, of course. They
