Chapter 531:

Marissa reveled in the awkward and flustered look on Burnet’s face, deriving a wicked pleasure from his discomfort. She was fully aware of his burning curiosity about the identity of Silver Fox, yet she relished delaying her response. She teased him instead of giving a straight answer.

“Why are you still asking about her identity? You’ve offended her deeply, and she’s not going to assist you now. What good does knowing her name do you? She’s quick-tempered and not one to mince words. Approaching her would only invite more insults. You’re barely hanging on as it is; one sharp word from her might just finish you off early.”

She checked the clock and added with a click of her tongue, “Look, you’ve got only forty minutes left. Forget these futile hopes. Better call Xander to get your remaining affairs done, or you might not even manage to draft a will. I’m keeping her identity from you for your sake.

Otherwise, you might obsess over her even in the afterlife, blaming her for not saving you. Imagine becoming a vengeful spirit, haunting her out of spite? Wouldn’t that just compound your sins? So, the wisest thing for you now is to settle your remaining matters and meet your end calmly.

Make sure Xander commits some good deeds on your behalf. It might make your time in the afterlife a bit easier and support a better reincarnation.”
