Chapter 1383

She'd just barely escaped Zane with her life, and now...

All of Zane's crimes were out in the open for the world to see, but somehow, she still hadn't managed to dodge the fate of being killed by him.

If that wasn't fate, what was?

If the universe had decided that she was doomed to die at Zane's hands in this lifetime, well... what could she do but accept it?

Seeing Elysia's worried face, Winona just grinned, brushing it off with a shrug.

"Relax. I was just talking about the absolute worst-case scenario. Trust me, Zane's not going to take me out that easily!"

"I'm not exactly a pushover, you know? He can't just walk in here and squash me like a grape."

"Yeah, him being on the run could be dangerous for me, but hey, maybe it's not all bad news."

"Maybe it's the universe giving me a shot at taking him down myself, ever think about that?"

"Last time, if I'd killed him, I'd have been the one going to jail. I'd have had to make it quick-one clean shot, settle the score and move on."

"But this time? It's different. He's a wanted criminal now, all over the news. If he dares to show up and tries to kill me, and I take him out? That's self-defense. Hell, I'd be doing the world a favor!"

"Honestly, I think the universe is handing me an opportunity—maybe it wants me to finish what he started and finally get my revenge!"
