Everyone heard that James had suffered a heart attack and had to be hospitalized. His condition worsened every time he realized that Zia would never appear before him again. His body refused to accept the reality, causing him to react painfully.

No one could help, including Edward. After spending a whole week in New York and preparing to return to Singapore, Edward made time to visit James, regardless of what James had done to Zia. Whatever it was, at a time when Zia had no one left, James had once been a home for her.

“Edward...” James called out with a heavy voice, struggling to breathe.

Edward smiled slightly in response. Honestly, he was angry at James but also furious at himself. If he had chosen to bring Zia with him from the beginning and not let her be cared for by others, maybe Zia’s fate wouldn’t have been so tragic.

“I’m sorry,” James said.

“I'm not someone who easily forgets the kindness of others when they make mistakes,” Edward replied. “You were the only place Zia could

  • Love Makes Me Wanna Be a Killer   17 - Beautiful Eyes

    Eric noticed Hazel, who had been staring across the street, not far from where they were standing. She looked expressionless but seemed to be focusing intently on something. She didn't even notice the coffee in her hand.“What's wrong?” Eric asked.Hazel pointed directly at someone walking unsteady steps along the sidewalk. Eric was sure the man was drunk.“He looks like James,” Hazel said.Instantly, Eric also focused his gaze and realized she was right. The man walking in a daze was indeed James. His appearance was disheveled, and his face looked sad.He didn't say it, but Eric knew from Hazel's gaze that she was worried about James. But hearing the story of how Hazel had once loved James so much, three or four years wouldn't be enough to forget him. Even if it was just one, there must be memories of when they were happy together.“Do you want to meet him? I'll watch over you from a distance.” Eric took the coffee from Hazel's hand.“Why would I want to meet him?” Hazel retorted.“Y

  • Love Makes Me Wanna Be a Killer   16 – On the Brink of Destruction

    “BELLA!” James shouted, slamming the door shut, startling everyone in the house with his angry arrival.“What's wrong, sir?” asked the housekeeper.“Where's Bella?”“Mrs. Bella left this morning with her suitcase.”James clenched his fists in anger. “Damn it!” he muttered.James then sat on the sofa, running his hands through his hair, feeling utterly frustrated. Everything was in shambles, destroyed. It was as if his legs could no longer carry him, yet there was no reason to pursue anything in his life.As Bella had said, she was leaving James because she had only stayed for his wealth. And now that his company was on the brink of bankruptcy, Bella had truly gone.The worst part was that Bella had taken all the money from James' safe. It was the only thing left to keep the company afloat when all the investors suddenly withdrew their support.“Sir, please drink this.” The housekeeper handed him a glass of water to calm him down.“I want beer,” James refused the mineral water.“But, s

  • Love Makes Me Wanna Be a Killer   15 - Death Celebration

    #Note: Hazel is Zia#When they arrived in New York, Eric complained, “Hazel, people will think you're my girlfriend."Yes, Edward asked Eric to go with Zia, who is now Hazel, for her safety, because Edward couldn't leave his job. Even though she is now living a new life, the trauma Zia experienced did not disappear just like that.Since leaving Edward's house, Hazel had been walking behind Eric, holding onto the hem of his shirt, refusing to interact with anyone. Even when Edward told her that Eric would be coming with them, Hazel had strongly objected, saying she could go alone.“Just do your job and don't say anything!” Hazel whispered.“Alright. I'll call a taxi.”Hazel stood silently, staring at the snow under her feet. The coldness brought back memories—she was almost dying. The cold, heavy snow fell slowly, covering the ground, and everything repeated. Her hands began to tremble, but she tried hard to stay composed.In truth, their timing to come to New York was wrong. Edward ha

  • Love Makes Me Wanna Be a Killer   14 – A Mysterious Identity

    “I feel like I'll die peacefully if I hear news of James' death.”Edward, who had just arrived home, sighed softly. Those were the words Zia had repeatedly repeated after Edward had given her a little encouragement to seek revenge.Nevertheless, Edward had too many considerations to prevent anything bad from happening to Zia. He had promised Robert that he would protect her.“Zia, I just got home. Can we talk later?” Edward asked, still trying to remain patient.“But you said that my life would be peaceful if...”“ZIA!”Instantly, Zia fell silent and bowed her head upon hearing Edward raise his voice slightly. Zia realized how annoying she had been lately, constantly talking about her desire for revenge against what James had done to her.Guilt pierced Zia's chest. She had been scolded and even fought with Edward worse than this before. But the fact that they hadn't spoken in a long time, not even to ask how each other was doing, made Zia's heart refuse to accept that Edward was her b

  • Love Makes Me Wanna Be a Killer   13 – The Desire to Kill

    Zia threw her antidepressants in the trash, convinced that she had begun to overcome her trauma. Thanks to Eric's help, Zia managed to get through her days fairly well. Eric tried so hard to convince Zia that the things that scared her weren't that scary.Of course, Edward generously paid Eric for his help as a token of gratitude.“What did you throw away, Zia?” asked Edward, patting Zia on the head.“My antidepressants,” Zia replied.“Why did you throw them away?”“Ah, I want to break my dependence on those drugs,” replied Zia confidently.Edward smiled with relief at Zia's significant change. Indeed, Zia had not yet entirely accepted what had happened to her. She also couldn't hear anyone mention James' name in front of her. What Zia had tried so hard to banish from her life came crashing back when she heard that name.That was why Eric had asked Edward not to discuss James with Zia. Zia’s improved condition was also due to Eric convincing her she was now living in a new face full o

  • Love Makes Me Wanna Be a Killer   12 – Removing Hallucinations

    Zia's eyes were fixed on James and Bella, who talked to a nurse. They even laughed as if they had never done anything to make someone's life miserable. Meanwhile, Zia had to fight desperately to recover from her harrowing trauma.“Zia, you're seeing things. We should go.” Edward tried to block Zia's view of James.But it didn't work at all. Zia's body began to react. Her breathing grew heavy, her body trembled, and her lips turned pale. She took a step back, feeling James turn to look at her with the same expression he had when he had drowned her, his small, threatening smile seeming as though he would kill Zia in the most painful way possible.It was just a hallucination that felt so real because of Zia's overwhelming fear. She could see Edward's lips moving as if he were saying something to her, but Zia heard nothing except a prolonged, loud ringing in her ears colliding with the sound of James' angry screams.And worst of all, the laughter of the depraved men who had abused and tort
