Chapter 1359

Lightning flashed and thunder rolled outside the fifth-floor room. It was quite some time before James stumbled in, drenched in blood.

Joseph, staring at the portrait on the wall, asked casually, "Where is she? Did she spill the beans?"

James didn't say a word, prompting Joseph to turn around. James was a mess, blood everywhere. He tossed a blood-stained knife at Joseph's feet, his voice icy. "She's dead."
