Chapter 670: Grace is Abandoned

Stephanie finally came to, only to find herself still lying on the ground, a look of embarrassment crossing her face. Tina, having just finished checking Natalie's pupils, tossed a cellphone towards her upon hearing Stephanie rise. "You haven't forgotten what we discussed last night, have you?"

Silently standing up, Stephanie asked, "After I help you, will you let bygones be bygones?" Tina laughed softly while continuing her examination of Natalie, "You should realize that you're helping yourself." Stephanie froze, understanding the warning in Tina's words. She suddenly knelt down, pleading, "Tina, please, I'm begging you, save my brother. I'll do anything for you, I was forced into this!"

Tina straightened the blanket on Natalie's bed and sat down beside her, smiling at Stephanie, "What could you possibly do for me?" Stephanie pursed her lips, unable to say a word, feeling utterly powerless compared to Tina. Seeing Stephanie's hesitant demeanor, Tina grew reluctant to speak further, "I'm not interested in your brother. Just keep to yourself from now on, and I promise you'll survive your face treatment." Stephanie bit her lip, tears streaming down her face, "They've left my brother in a sanatorium-it's actually a mental hospital, Tina. For the sake of him never wronging you, please save him! He's the only family I have left in this world!" Tina could only laugh inwardly. How was it her concern? Should she really waste her resources saving someone just because he had never wronged her? It was laughable. Disinterested, Tina's voice turned icy, "Do as I say, or you won't survive either!" With that, she stood and left.

Stephanie sat collapsed on the floor, her eyes filled with despair. If Grace ever found out she had betrayed them, they would surely kill Eric to silence him. If she didn't comply, she wouldn't survive either. Either way, she was trapped. Angela watched coldly from the side, not understanding Stephanie's hesitation. In such a situation, shouldn't one prioritize saving one's own life? Angela thought if it were her, she wouldn't hesitate, even if it meant choosing between herself and Alina.

Meanwhile, Grace was at home waiting for a phone call. With Joshua missing, the master unreachable, and having been expelled from the X Bureau by Linden, she feared becoming expendable. This was unacceptable, as she had not yet avenged herself nor made Jared grovel at her feet. She had endured too much to gain her current status to be discarded midway.

Just then, her phone rang. Grace quickly answered, hoping it was about Joshua.

"It's Stephanie."

Her heart sank.

"Why are you calling?"

"I... I killed someone."
