The next morning, Kelsey was already dressed and out of her room before the rest of the mansion fully woke up.

    Ruby left Mary sitting alone in the dining room before quietly walking out. She didn't look back or care to see her reaction. There was nothing more to say.Mary's words had only confirmed what Ruby and Kelsey had already suspected. It was better to warn her and let her know that she understood the game she was playing.As Ruby made her way toward the staircase, planning to look for Jason upstairs, she suddenly saw him coming downstairs. She stopped where she was, not wanting to meet him halfway, especially since his mother was walking down beside him."There you are," Jason said, his eyes lighting up the moment he saw her. "You were taking too long. I was just coming to look for you.""I didn't think I took that long," Ruby replied, trying to remember how long she had actually been talking to Mary.Their conversation had been very brief, so she didn't think she had stayed long enough for him to come looking for her."I want to freshen up and change out of these clothes," Jason said,

    Meanwhile... After dinner, Jason's mother looked at the clock on the wall before turning to the two of them. "It's already getting late." She smiled gently. "You two should just stay the night." Ruby was about to politely refuse when Jason's father spoke as well. "It's not safe driving this late." Jason looked at Ruby. "What do you think?" Ruby hesitated for a second before nodding. "If it's not too much trouble..." Jason's mother immediately interrupted. "What trouble? This house has more rooms than people. Even if you don't want to sleep in the same room as Jason—" Jason instantly turned to his mother. "We will sleep in the same room, Mum," he said as soon as she finished. "I find it hard to sleep without her." Silence filled the room. Ruby lowered her head, feeling embarrassed by the way Jason's parents were looking at her now. She didn't know why he had to say that in front of them. "Ohh." Mrs. Peterson let out an amused sound, her eyes filled with interest

    Kelsey fell silent for a few seconds before speaking. "You really had many grudges against my mother.""I do." Savannah answered immediately. "Why did she always have everything?""Maybe because the universe knew her heart was pure..." Kelsey replied calmly. "...while yours was full of jealousy, competition, and manipulation.""You..." Savannah was left speechless.The warehouse fell silent once again.Laura's body shook badly. She hoped that Kelsey would just shut up before things got bloody. At least until she left the warehouse safely. After a long moment, Savannah finally spoke."Aren't you afraid I'll put a bullet through your head?" She asked coldly.Kelsey smiled."I already know you won't let me leave here alive."Savannah gritted her teeth. "And you didn't think it would be better to beg for your life?""Would you spare me?" Kelsey asked quietly.Savannah shook her head. "Of course not.""Then there's no point in begging," Kelsey replied. "Just let me hear the full story behi

    Savannah didn't answer Kelsey's question immediately.Instead, she looked at her as though she had just heard the funniest joke in the world.A soft laugh escaped her lips. "You really don't know."Kelsey held her gaze. "I wouldn't ask if I did."Savannah slowly began walking around the chair. The sound of her heels echoed through the silent warehouse."You look just like her." She stopped behind Kelsey. "The same eyes. The same calm expression. The same irritating confidence."Kelsey frowned. "Those have nothing to do with the question I asked."Savannah smiled."Margret." She said the name as though it left a bitter taste in her mouth. "I hated her."The warehouse became quiet again.Laura looked from one woman to the other, hardly daring to breathe.Kelsey spoke after a moment. "You hated my mother.""Yes.""But that doesn't explain why you want me dead."Savannah slowly walked back until she stood directly in front of Kelsey. "It explains everything.""No." Kelsey calmly shook her

    Laura lowered her head the moment the elegantly dressed woman walked into the warehouse. Even after six years of taking orders from her, fear still settled deep in her bones. The woman stopped a few steps away. Her sharp eyes swept across the warehouse before settling on Laura. "So..." Her voice was calm. "You've finally grown bold enough to summon me." Laura's heart pounded, but she forced herself to remain calm. "You said you wanted Kelsey dead. I thought you would want to see it happen with your own eyes." The woman let out a cold laugh. "You don't get to decide what I want." Laura clenched her fists. "I only..." Before she could finish, the woman suddenly pulled out a small pistol and pointed it directly at her. The warehouse fell silent. "You've become very courageous." Her voice remained frighteningly calm. "You dared to question me over the phone." Laura almost lost control of her bladder. "I... I wasn't questioning you." "You were." The woman took anothe

    Kelsey stepped out of her room after changing into the dress. The soft fabric brushed gently against her skin as she carefully held the side of the gown, afraid she might accidentally step on it.
