Five Years as the Impostor's Lab Rat Chapter 9
Eliza's voice trembled as she looked at the corpse covered by the white cloth.Without waiting for Christopher's reply, she pulled the cloth away. The moment she saw my tightly shut eyes, she could no longer hold back her tears.How could she have done such cruel things to me, her own brother?When she had first found me and brought me back, her heart had ached for me, and all she wanted was to make it up to me.At that thought, Eliza—her eyes bloodshot—flipped open the documents her people had brought over. Each item listed was proof of Christopher's crimes.He had faked mental impairment for five years, all just to frame me. Even the car accident back then had been entirely his own doing.From the very moment I came back, he had used every means possible to frame me. And as though blind, Eliza had believed whatever he said.Perhaps she had her suspicions in the very beginning. But Christopher's relentless manipulations had kept her from ever looking into it, until all that rem

The moment the words registered, Eliza felt every ounce of strength drain from her legs. She collapsed to the ground with a heavy thud.Even though she had been endlessly bracing herself mentally, the news still left her dazed and stricken with anguish.The people she had sent to the basement were absolutely reliable and could not be bought off by anyone.So then, was I really dead?Eliza had always believed that after all these years of entanglement, she had long since come to detest me utterly. Yet, it was only in this moment that she realized she had actually loved me all along.It was just that this love had been buried deep within her heart, hidden and obscured by so many other things."How? How did he die?"She had only sent me to test the drugs and even told Dr. Harding to treat me a little better. It was only because they had promised her there would be no problems that she handed me over to them.At that thought, large teardrops began streaming down Eliza's face. She f

Floating in midair, I reflexively touched my chest at those words. But perhaps because I was already dead, the heart that used to ache dully every time no longer held any sensation of pain.I had to admit that Eliza's punishment for me this time was far lighter than any before. At least she didn't drag me out of the basement and flog me with 99 lashes again.Remembering the agony of those beatings, I smiled with a sense of release.Death was, in its own way, a relief for me.It was only a pity that, in the end, I still couldn't escape the Parker family, nor could I die outside.After Eliza finished speaking, Christopher tugged her away, and they left.Dragging Eliza with him, Christopher headed straight for the upscale shopping mall. He needed to find a way to divert her attention. Only then would he have the chance to dispose of my corpse in the basement.I, hovering in the air, could see through Christopher's thoughts with complete clarity. What surprised me, though, was that

Just as Eliza was about to open the basement door, Christopher came running over and grabbed her hand tightly.A flicker of panic flashed across his face. But when Eliza turned to face him, it quickly turned into a coaxing, spoiled expression."Eliza, what are you going down there for? Didn't you promise me you wouldn't see Sutton?"Eliza took in the familiar look on Christopher's face, yet all she could picture was the gloating expression he'd had in his room earlier.He had said he had been perfectly normal all along and was only pretending to be a fool. Every time he put on that clueless, childlike act, she would agree to anything he wanted and believe everything he said.And he had done all of it just to frame me and drive me out.At that thought, Eliza averted Christopher's gaze and said, her expression complicated, "Jeremy said Sutton died in the basement."After hearing this, Christopher grew even more panicked.Of course he knew I was dead. In fact, he even knew I had d

Eliza's expression froze instantly. She couldn't believe what she had just heard.No longer caring that Christopher had been startled in his room, Eliza stumbled down the stairs and seized Jeremy by the collar."What did you just say?" she asked, a frightening tangle of emotions written across her face. "Did Sutton put you up to this? He's been sickly ever since he came back, sure—but there's no way he would just die so suddenly. He must be faking it. You must've been mistaken. Go back down there right now and check on him again!"Before Jeremy could even answer, Eliza had already talked herself into believing her own words. By the end, she was practically shouting.Jeremy had never imagined that my death would make Eliza lose her composure like this, and for a moment, he stood frozen on the spot.Seeing that Jeremy wasn't replying and was just standing there in a daze only made Eliza angrier."What are you still standing there for? Get down there now!"Jeremy was so frightened

Eliza's expression froze for a moment, and something unreadable flickered in her eyes as she looked at me.But soon, she snapped out of it.She turned her face away and said in a stiff and unnatural voice, "If you hadn't laid a hand on Christopher, I would have treated you like my brother too."I stared blankly at the ground. With my eardrum ruptured, I hadn't heard a single word. The next second, I could hold on no longer and fainted to the ground.Eliza's heart sank, and a look of urgency appeared on her face. She abruptly stepped forward, ready to scoop me up.But just then, Christopher grabbed her arm and whined, "Sutton probably just fell asleep. Eliza, my head hurts so much. Can you please take me to the doctor?"The words had barely left his mouth before he tugged her out of the basement.…No matter the hour I awoke, the basement greeted me with nothing but darkness.Feeling the familiar, unrelenting pain radiating through my body, I opened my eyes.I had a premonitio
