Chapter 332

The three people eavesdropping behind the gate quickly pushed it open and stepped into the courtyard.

Alyce was the first to speak up. “Ms. Rosewood, it’s not my fault. Phoebe was the one who dragged us into this.”

Yuna cleared her throat. “Ms. Rosewood, I can back Alyce up. She’s not lying.”

Phoebe just shook her head. “Elysia, come on. I was just waiting for the right moment. You could’ve handled this on your own. Besides…” She glanced over at the woman in black. “She’s here to help you.”

It was then that Yuna and Alyce noticed the woman controlling Grace. They realized it was Zoe, who they thought had left already. They wondered why she was back.

“Ms. Rosewood…” Yuna began, but Elysia cut her off with a raised hand.

Grace’s mind was spinning. ‘Have I heard correctly? Why was everyone so respectful to Elysia?‘ she wondered.

Suddenly, a terrifying thought hit her, and she felt a wave of panic. She shook her head, trying to dismiss it. “No way, this is impossible!”

“What’s so impossible?” Elysia asked, her voice light and teasing.

Grace stared up at her, her heart racing. “Elysia, who are you really?”

Elysia just smiled. “Who do you think I am?”

Grace’s eyes widened as she noticed the three people who had joined the scene. “Are you… are you the Owner of Arcanum House?” she managed to say, her voice trembling.

She’d never met the Owner of Arcanum House before, but the newcomers‘ attitude toward Elysia said it all. It hit Grace like a punch in the gut–Elysia was the Owner of Arcanum House.

Grace couldn’t stop shaking. She regretted agreeing to Bianca’s plan. The place was deserted–Elysia could do whatever she wanted, and no one would ever find out.
