Mag-log inChapter 176: Ann Oliver Had Already Become a MurdererFinn burst into laughter, clearly thrilled by his own idea. I silently watched him revel in his madness, doing everything I could to stop a stream of curses from escaping my lips and ruining his good mood."Calm down. I didn't come here to argue with a lunatic!"I forced myself to suppress my anger, keeping my expression so calm that it bordered on indifference.Fortunately, after everything I had gone through over the course of ten previous lives and this one, I had trained myself to maintain a face as solid as stone no matter how chaotic my thoughts became.Finn Muller was a madman.And for a madman like him, neither the law nor human morality meant anything capable of restraining him. So all I could do now was think of a way to stop this disgusting wild beast.The handgun at my waist might not be able to accomplish what I wanted. Instead, it could very well become something that puts me at a disadvantage.I glanced at Finn. The
Chapter 175: Become Finn Muller's Wife?I let out a mocking laugh. There really was no limit to madness.Finn Muller had spent half his life hiding behind a flawless mask. To the outside world, he was the very image of perfection, refined and every bit the gentleman expected of high society.None of them knew that beneath that polished exterior lurked a rotten, revolting soul.His purpose in life was to steal other people's happiness and everything they cherished. What a twisted obsession.I had always known that beneath the glamorous façade of the upper class lay something vile, but seeing it reach this level was truly eye-opening. It made me wonder if Leo was one of the very few people who had managed to keep himself untainted amidst this chaos of wealthy elites.I glanced at Bianca. She looked so miserable that it was pitiful.She crawled across the floor, wearing nothing but her underwear, with a few torn strips of fabric still clinging to her body. She clutched Finn Muller's leg,
Chapter 174: The Man Who Loved Taking What Belonged to OthersI tilted my head slightly at Finn but didn't return his greeting. My mind was racing with countless possibilities and suspicions. I had no idea just how deranged the man standing before me could truly be.Finn smiled at me, shrugged, then turned around and beckoned me with a wave of his hand."Now that you're here, don't be shy. Come inside and have a look around."I raised an eyebrow, feeling no urge to resist.Well, it was only natural.I'd already come all this way. Running away or refusing to enter now would be meaningless.As I stepped into the mansion, an indescribably strange feeling washed over me. The vast, silent space felt like a bottomless abyss, a grotesque pit that was slowly chewing me apart, swallowing me piece by piece.Instead of getting straight to the point, Finn led me into the dining room, where the floor-to-ceiling windows overlooked the lawn outside the mansion. The dining table had already been prep
Chapter 173: The Suburban MansionI looked at my reflection in the mirror and gently reached out to touch my face.There was a time when I would stare into the mirror and wonder when this unbearably dull life would finally come to an end.That was in my previous life, when I suddenly realized time was slowly wearing me down, little by little, yet there was nothing I could do about it. I wasn't an ambitious person, but I still longed for a peaceful and happy life.Sometimes, I was even surprised by how much I had changed in this lifetime.I thought of Samuel. He had once said that he had lived long enough to remain calm in the face of any storm."I really admire him. If only I could stay as calm as he does."I understood why the Dominic family had grown so powerful. It was probably because the head of the family always remained clear-headed no matter what happened.I let out a sigh, wondering when I would ever become someone that strong.I quietly left the mansion and hailed a taxi. Fi
Chapter 172: Going Alone to NegotiateMy hands trembled as I held the phone, cold sweat running down my back.Who was it?Who had sent me those messages?I clenched my hand tightly, not even knowing what my face looked like right now. The driver glanced at me through the rearview mirror and asked with concern,"Miss Ella, are you alright? You don't look very well. Are you feeling sick?"Startled, I hurriedly touched my face and cleared my throat a few times to calm myself."Oh, I'm fine. Let's head home. I think I just need some rest."I rubbed my forehead, genuinely having no idea what was happening anymore.Even after I got home, I still hadn't calmed down. Sitting on the sofa, I stared silently at the still-lit phone screen.My fingers gently brushed over the message, and I murmured softly,"Is it you? Leo..."I knew that thought was absurd and impossible. Even if Leo were still alive, after disappearing for so long, how could he possibly know everything that was happening here?Af
Chapter 171: "Don't Do Anything. Just Trust Me."Lina grabbed my hand and asked softly,"What should we do? If Bianca has really lost her humanity, she might hurt the children. We have to find them as quickly as possible."I gently patted Lina's hand to comfort her.The truth was, I had no idea what to do next either.When the children from the orphanage had been kidnapped, Anessa and I had spent many days searching for them. If Nolan hadn't been traveling back and forth between the two places, we would never have found even the slightest clue.This time, Bianca had taken the children with her and left behind no trace whatsoever. We couldn't use the same method we had used to find Nolan.To be more precise, we had absolutely no way of finding Bianca unless she chose to reveal herself.By the time we found her, I was afraid it would already be too late.A cold sweat broke out across my back as I thought about Bianca's reckless actions."This is bad..."Jonas, who was standing beside me
Chapter 157: Is Our Father Dead?I sighed. Right now, we had absolutely no way of knowing what was happening over there, so worrying was useless. I could only suppress my anxiety to think of a way to resolve the trouble at hand.Anessa looked at me and asked.“So what do you plan to do now? If need
Chapter 156: He Might Be DeadI closed my eyes and lay still on the sofa for nearly thirty minutes to think. At times like this, losing my composure was the last thing I could afford to do.Nolan demanding one billion dollars was definitely to resolve his company's current situation. There was noth
Chapter 150: AuctionWe played at the amusement park until the afternoon before returning home. Levi had also picked Sumire up from her extra classes. Seeing Lilya and Ryan, Sumire joyfully ran over to hold their hands and jumped with excitement.“Why are you two here? Can you stay and play with me
Chapter 149: Giving Up PaintingLina looked at me with surprise in her eyes, but right after glancing at the two children, she seemed to understand something and immediately nodded.Together, we headed to the biggest amusement park in the city. While Lina went to buy tickets, I held the children's
