But after Nyx went missing, that family–feeling cheated–actually contacted the traffickers to demand a refund. Their chat logs became new evidence.

Nyx was rendered speechless. When a situation was so absurd, all she could do was laugh.

Hearing her chuckle, Archie stole a glance at her. “By the way, I still don’t know your name?”

Nyx snapped back to reality, her expression returning to normal. “Nyx Voss.”

“Got it.” Archie trailed after her. “Let’s just have a meal together first?”

“Fine, if not dinner, then let me take you to see the house.” Archie was surprisingly considerate.

Meanwhile, the livestream was blowing up, and the viewership skyrocketed.

Seeing Archie’s eager behavior, his fangirls felt jealous. But they had to admit, Nyx’s heroic display earlier had left them in awe. They couldn’t help but respect her.

In a cramped house filled with the stench of mold and rotten food, a bald middle–aged man suddenly shouted, “Mom. Isn’t this Nyx?”

“Why are you yelling?” an old woman scolded from the kitchen. “Why bring up that dead girl all of a sudden?”

“No, Mom. Look.” The middle–aged man thrust his phone in front of the old woman, showing her the livestream. “That’s Nyx, right?”

The old woman rubbed her eyes, momentarily unsure. She thought, “That wretched girl–is this really her?‘

In her memory, Nyx had been as thin as a ghost, wearing oversized clothes that hung loosely on her frail frame, shoulders always hunched in submission.

But the girl on screen exuded health and confidence. Dressed stylishly, she looked every bit the wealthy young lady–like someone from an entirely different world. Yet, she still looked undeniably familiar.

“If it’s really her, does that mean we don’t have to pay back that 150 thousand dollars?” The old woman’s eyes gleamed with
