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!”

“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.”

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

Her gaze lightly brushed over Shela’s ring.

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

expense.
