Chapter 158

Hearing this, Mark suddenly had a brainwave and blurted out, “Yes, yes, you’re absolutely right, it was all my idea! Mr. Ramirez, it was me who had Shela take over, don’t blame her, it’s all on me!”

Even now, Mark was deluding himself, thinking he could still save Shela.

But it was no use.

Elgin was as cold as ice, “So keen to admit your mistakes? I’ll grant you that.”

“Mr. Ramirez…”

“Go back to the psych ward, but forget about your title as director.” Elgin curled his lips up cruelly, “You’ll be staying as a patient.”

Mark bulged his eyes!

They had never told anyone! How could Mr. Ramirez and Letitia suddenly know?

It was supposed to be a secret!

Letitia replied, “That’s none of your business, Shela… Evil will eventually destroy itself.”

Her gaze lightly brushed over Shela’s ring.

Greed was Shela’s biggest weakness.

This wedding ring, designed to step on her dignity and wounds, was crafted for Shela by Elgin at great
