Falling for a Lie: My Stepbrother's Hidden Revenge

Chapter 155

“Ah! What is this…”

Inside the sack was a woman, unconscious and with disheveled hair that covered her face, emitting a sour smell. Her arms and legs were covered in bruises, indicating that she had been subjected to abuse.

Jade looked up at the man with a bewildered expression. The man remained silent, only smiling.

But that smile carried a profound meaning.

She covered her mouth and nose, suppressing the urge to vomit, and pushed aside the woman’s tangled hair.

“This… is Nancy?”

Wasn’t she sent to prison by Sylvia? Didn’t she receive a ten–year sentence? How could she be out so soon?

“She was abandoned by the Fallen Family and severed ties with the Mellis family. She’s nothing now, just a useless person. What use could she have?”

The man still had a smile at the corner of his mouth. “You’ll find out soon enough.”

In the past few days, Edgar had been recuperating, while Sylvia was busy at the company.

Despite living in the same villa, the two of them rarely crossed paths. The next day, as Sylvia finished washing up and headed downstairs, she caught a whiff of a delicious aroma coming from the dining room. The breakfast was neatly laid out and still steaming hot, indicating that it had just been prepared.

A smile formed at the corner of Sylvia’s mouth. In such a short time, someone’s cooking skills had improved significantly. She walked over to the dining room but found the kitchen empty and quiet.

So she called out to Eleven, “Where is Edgar?”

“Miss, Mr. Fallen woke up early this morning and prepared breakfast for you before going to work at the Fallen Family’s company.”

This guy must have realized that he was still recovering from his illness and that she might pick a fight with him, so he decided to avoid her altogether.

Sylvia chuckled and shook her head. She had a few bites of breakfast and headed to work at the

company. Just as she sat down at her desk, Fifteen knocked on the door and reported the investigation
