Bang! The iron door outside was kicked open.
When Chester and Mireya, who barged in, saw the scene in the basement, they felt chills all over.
Especially Mireya. She could not believe that the woman wearing the scary mask was the shining celebrity in her heart, Eliza.
“Eliza, stop.” Mireya rushed over.
Eliza’s hands were trembling. She did not expect that the people who arrived first would be Chester and Mireya. Mireya was her best friend. Moreover, she was wearing a mask but Mireya still recognized her.
She did not wish for Mireya to see her like this. She was born with a grim fate. Her parents were dead, and her siblings who were alive were evil. Friends were everything to her. They were the only sunlight in her life too.
While Eliza was in a daze, Mireya took the opportunity and snatched the knife from her hands. When she saw Sarah lying on the ground, she was stunned.
Was that still Sarah? Dirt stuck to Sarah from head to toe. She was utterly filthy. There were even disgusting maggots wiggling on her head.
That was not the most shocking scene. What surprised Mireya the most was that Sarah’s limbs were smeared with blood…
When Mireya was stunned, Eliza returned to her senses and snatched the knife back.
“Eliza, stop.” At that time, Chester rushed over and restrained her wrists. At the same time, he yanked the mask away and revealed Eliza’s pretty yet cold face.
Eliza’s gaze made Chester’s heart tremble. He had never seen a woman with a gaze so cold as if she was a demon from hell.
“Eliza, it’s really you.” Mireya’s last hope in her heart was gone. However, she was not angry. Seeing Eliza in that state made Mireya feel more sorry for her.
Sarah was already barely alive from being tortured. She lay on the ground like a corpse, and blood had pooled underneath her.
She only had one thought. She would rather die. “Please… I beg you. Kill me…”
Sarah begged in despair.
She regretted it at that moment. She should not have come back after she escaped from Australia back then.
She had been tortured for too long. She could not endure it anymore. She blacked out and fainted.
Eliza looked at the time. It should be daylight outside.
She could not delay any longer. Although she wanted to continue torturing Sarah slowly, she reckoned that with Rodney’s abilities, he would be arriving soon.
It was okay if she was caught. She was already prepared for the worst.
However, she had to take Sarah’s life.
Eliza took out a knife that she had prepared. The gleam of the blade reflected her fierce, reddened eyes that were behind the mask.
If possible, she did not want to go this far either. However, she could not tolerate Sarah going unpunished by the law. She had to resolve some grudges herself.
Eliza closed her eyes with the knife in her hands. She was about to strike.
Bang! The iron door outside was kicked open.
When Chester and Mireya, who barged in, saw the scene in the basement, they felt chills all over.

“Eliza, it’s really you.” Mireya’s last hope in her heart was gone. However, she was not angry. Seeing Eliza in that state made Mireya feel more sorry for her.
“Give me the knife.” Eliza did not want to hide anymore.” I’m doing what I have to do. Let me take Sarah’s life.”
“Eliza, you can’t kill her. You’ll go to jail. Once you’re in prison, the rest of your life will be ruined,” Mireya dissuaded her anxiously. “Sarah is hateful. I desperately want her to die as well.
However, the law will punish her. She’s not worth you using the rest of your life to get revenge on her.”
“I want her to be punished by the law too, but there’s no evidence. If possible, I don’t want to go this far either.” Eliza’s eyes were filled with determination. No one understood her pain.
“We can slowly collect evidence,” Mireya shouted at Eliza. “You’re my best friend. I can’t just stand by and watch as you ruin your life for such a scumbag. C’mon, let’s leave quickly.”
“Leave?” Eliza laughed. Where could she go?
She had nowhere to go. As long as Rodney kept investigating, he would easily find her.
Rather than have that happen, it would be better if she killed Sarah first.
“Even if I leave, I have to kill her before I go.” Eliza tried to escape Chester’s grasp, but that man’s hands were like handcuffs.
She could not hold it in anymore and pushed Chester. “Chester, let go. This is my own business. “
Moreover, if it were not for the man in front of her, she would not have to go that far. Her parents would not have died either.
Chester did not waste any more time talking to Eliza. He raised his hand and knocked her out.
Eliza’s body fell toward the ground. Chester immediately caught her.
Mireya was flustered. “Why did you…”
“Would she leave if we don’t knock her out?” Chester took the car keys from Eliza’s pocket and tossed them to Mireya. “If you want Rodney not to suspect Eliza, remember what I told you before. The car outside is yours, and you were the one who hired the people who kidnapped Sarah. When Rodney comes, you mustn’t let him suspect anything.”
Mireya, who had to bear such a huge crime, panicked. However, looking at Eliza’s pale face, she held it in and clenched the car keys tightly. “I know. Take her and leave.”
Chester carried Eliza. As he left, he glanced at Mireya. “Hang in there. I’ve already contacted Cate and Shaun. They’re on their way here.”
After he spoke, he left with Eliza in his arms.
Mireya stood there alone for a while. She found the surroundings smelly and creepy.
She crept toward Sarah and checked for her breath. Sarah was still breathing. Luckily, she had not died yet.
Mireya was actually very frightened. Chester said Rodney would let her off the hook, but she did not really believe him. Sarah was so important to Rodney. When Rodney saw Sarah’s state later, Mireya did not know whether he would kill her on impulse or not.
However, Mireya did not regret it. If Eliza stayed back, the chance of her dying was 1oo percent. At least, Mireya still had a 50 percent chance of living.
Nevertheless, the other 50 percent made her think of Dani. She became terrified.
At that moment, Mireya’s phone rang. The word ¡® Ryan’ on the screen was like a lifeline in the darkness.
She picked up the call immediately. Her voice was trembling. “R-Ryan…”
“Mireya, where did you go? I’m on the federal highway. Tell me the location.” Ryan’s anxious voice came through the phone.
“What highway?” Mireya reacted half a beat later. She almost cried. “Is it the place that I passed through just now? I’m inside this factory…”
Before Mireya finished speaking, sounds of gunshots came from upstairs.
Mireya was startled, and her hand jolted. The phone fell to the ground.
