Chapter 668: Surprised, Aren't You?

Lysander quietly opened the door to the hospital room and entered with Stephanie. Natalie lay on the bed, her breathing steady, with various medical devices attached to her showing no signs of abnormality. Lysander tiptoed over, followed closely by Stephanie. Approaching the bed, Stephanie pulled out a photograph to compare, "It's her, what should we do? Take her with us?"

Lysander nodded, "Yes, I'll disconnect the equipment. Get ready to lift her; I'm taking her to the Emerson family to force out who she really is."

"Aren't we going to deal with her?" Stephanie paused, puzzled.

Big brother, if you don't kill her, I can't complete my mission!

"It's illegal to kill her!" Lysander replied matter-of-factly.

Stephanie was furious, thankful she had come along, or she would have failed the mission herself. While Lysander was busy with the equipment, Stephanie stealthily drew a knife from her pocket. She held the knife over Natalie's chest, swallowing nervously. Killing was new to her; she hadn't even killed a chicken before, how could she possibly go through with it? But if Natalie lived, Stephanie would die.

Lysander, this fool, unwilling to do the deed, was useless. It was so dark, Lysander wouldn't see; by the time he noticed, she would have been gone. Even if things went south, their master would handle it. Stephanie bolstered her courage internally, eyes closed, ready to plunge the knife.

Just as she steeled herself to strike, her wrist was caught in a grip as tight as a vice. Already on edge, this sudden grab nearly scared her soul away. Stephanie let out a piercing scream, "Ah!" Her scream lit up the room as the lights flickered on. Stephanie stepped back, unable to move further because her wrist was still held. She looked around.

The room wasn't empty as expected. Tina and Jared were there, along with a woman gripping her wrist with a stern face. Several unfamiliar men glared at her.

And her ally Lysander? He stood among them, smiling at her!

"You... you..."

Overwhelmed, Stephanie's vision darkened, and she fainted.
