Chapter 71: The woman who shouldn't exist

The underground garage had gone completely silent.Even the Helios agents seemed uncertain now.Victor Hale stared at the woman standing in front of the armored truck.For the first time that night—His composure cracked.“…Cassandra.”The woman smiled faintly.“So you do remember me.”Elena glanced quickly at Rowan.“Who is she?”Rowan’s voice was low.“I don’t know.”Lucian’s eyes narrowed as he studied Victor’s reaction.“But he does.”Victor slowly stepped forward.His gaze had turned cold.“You died twenty years ago.”Cassandra tilted her head slightly.“That was the official story.”Isabella suddenly sucked in a sharp breath.Lucian looked at her immediately.“You know her.”Isabella whispered,“She was Victor’s younger sister.”Elena blinked in shock.“Another Hale?”Lucian muttered under his breath,“This family tree just keeps getting worse.”Victor’s voice hardened.“You were buried.”Cassandra shrugged casually.“Closed casket.”Lucian smirked.“That should have been suspi
