Chapter 760 It’s Not an Illusion!

Elise’s eyes seemed to brighten the moment she stopped in her tracks.

It was no wonder a second bomb suddenly detonated when she was dived into the water.

They didn’t know that Anastasia had taken her life due to a broken heart. In order to prevent her from coming back and ruining their “happy wedding”, they did not hesitate to take the lives of everyone on the boat.

Only the truly cruel at heart could do something like this, and the woman with such a heart just so happened to be Anastasia’s stepsister, Adelpha White.

It was also because of them that Elise was disfigured.

As she thought about this, she suddenly felt compelled to bend down and get close to Adelpha. She then suppressed her own voice, making it as disembodied as she could, and moaned, “I… want you to pay for my life with yours…”

“What? Ah!”

Adelpha let out a shriek as her eyes rolled back, and she fell to the floor with a thud as she fell unconscious.

 

A look of annoyance immediately appeared on Elise’s face when she saw this. What is someone so timid trying to contract a killer for? she thought.

It suddenly seemed baffling how Anastasia was successfully forced into a dead-end by people like them.

Still, now wasn’t the time to be thinking about this. It was late. She should be resting now.

Turning her head, Elise called out to outside the door. “Come on in.”

As soon as she said that, Jacob, who had a different face on, came walking in while carrying various bags of all sizes.

Adelpha was shaken awake after an hour.

“Adelpha! Why are you sleeping on the floor, Adelpha? Get up! You are going to catch a cold!”

Adelpha was greeted by the sight of her mother, Lyra Syren kneeling beside her, looking at her with a caring expression.

“Momma!” Adelpha quickly sat up and grabbed Lyra by the wrist. The former was a bundle of nerves as she exclaimed in a horrified voice, “I saw Anastasia! She is going to kill me! She said she wants me to pay with my life. You have to help me, Momma!”
