After saying that, Essie's eyes turned red.

Then, she stood up.

She slowly ran her fingers along the man's face.

The man's face was bluish-gray, like a zombie right out of the grave.

Essie murmured, "I know you miss your sister, but I can't take you to her. If they catch you, they will destroy you. Lothar, they will most definitely destroy you,"

Selina had slept for a very long time during the day, so she couldn't sleep at night.

Fortunately, Matthew was there to keep her company.

Unfortunately, she couldn't eat a lot of things because she was in confinement.

Matthew heated up some milk for her.

After drinking a lot of warm milk, she felt full.

Now that she had time, she started to think about what had happened that night.

She seemed to be asking both Matthew and herself, "Matthew, do you think I was hallucinating or did I really see Essie and Lothar that night?"

She then shook her head, "No, even if Essie wasn't a hallucination, Lothar couldn't have been real,"

Matthew didn't reply.

He only stared at her with his deep eyes.

He was certain that neither Selina nor Yesseca were having any illusions.

If Essie was real, then what about Lothar?

Lothar was dead.

He had given his heart to Selina through a transplant.

How could a person survive without a heart?

It was impossible for Lothar to be human if he did.

If he wasn't human, what was he?
