Regret Came Too Late

Chapter 138

---- Chapter 138 Sloan had always been Alice's lapdog, but how could he continue to act that way after everything that had happened tonight? After tonight, he'd finally see everything for what it was. Selene followed behind Grace as they walked about 300 feet or so. Only then did she ask in her real voice, "Grace, do you have another trick up your sleeve? I'll admit, I underestimated you before.

But after seeing how unhinged Sloan was just now, what if Alice can talk him down with just a few words? Will he really stop acting against you?" Grace removed her hood, her eyes gleaming brighter than the stars in the night sky. "There's no need to worry. I know Alice, and she won't leave herself with any evidence." "What do you mean?" Grace smiled. "She wants to maintain the perfect image.

But now that Sloan knows her true nature, he can't be allowed to live." In short, Alice would take matters into her own hands and frame Sloan's death on the kidnappers from tonight. Everything would go down without a hitch, and she could keep up the act of the sweet, innocent girl. Selene raised an eyebrow, grinning. "You've really thought of everything, huh? So, should we go in and stop her?

Should we save Sloan?" ---- Grace leaned back against the car with a smirk on her face." I've already notified the Sidler family, and someone will be here soon to rescue him.

Alice's face remained pale, her back was straight, and her palms were slick with cold sweat. She never expected things to escalate to this point. She had figured Sloan would be a goner after drinking that water, but now, the tables had turned entirely.

I want your life now, so you just have to give it to me." Her expression was calm even when she killed him like it was ---- only natural for someone to die for her. Sloan's pupils contracted sharply. He could feel the knife twist cruelly inside his chest. How ruthless, how incredibly ruthless.

The door was pushed open just then. The Sidler family had finally arrived. Alice swiftly dropped the knife upon hearing the footsteps outside. She wiped away all traces of her fingerprints with calculated precision. Now, her face was filled with frantic concern as she held Sloan inher arms. "Sloan! Sloan, are you okay? Someone... Someone, help!" Sloan's last shred of awareness slipped away when he saw her sudden change
