Chapter 1105

Vivienne wasn't quite buying what Carly was selling. After all, she had crossed paths with too many deceivers, each one cloaked in a veneer of sincerity.

Besides, with the eagle eyes of the townsfolk on them, how could they possibly let Carly sneak in messages?

Seeing Vivienne's silence, Carly grew desperate to prove her identity. "Don't you believe me? The guy you're looking to rescue isn't the mayor's son. He's an outsider, just like you!" At Carly's words, the atmosphere around Vivienne shifted dramatically, her hand swiftly moving to Carly's throat.

"Who exactly are you?!"

The tightening grip turned Carly's face pale, her struggles growing weaker.

Just before Carly could pass out, Vivienne released her, causing Carly to collapse on the ground, gasping for air and looking up at Vivienne.

"I know you still, still have your doubts, but I'm really not like them," Carly managed to say with her remaining strength.

Vivienne pondered for a moment before giving Carly a pill. In seconds, the suffocating feeling vanished.

Looking down at Carly, Vivienne said, "Spill everything you know. If you lie, I won't hesitate to kill you."

Carly was visibly shaken by the cold determination in Vivienne's eyes. It took her a moment to nod in agreement.

"I didn't recognize him as not being Sebastian at first..."

Carly had learned the truth three years ago. She had adored Sebastian from a young age, memorizing all his likes and quirks.
