61. Chameleon

“My mother is Juan Forbes’s younger sister. A sad coincidence, isn’t it? But in this world, there’s no such thing as coincidence, because God has already planned it all long ago—even before we were born,” Josh replied, then gave a faint smile. “Yeah, you’re right. Only fools are cynical about so-called coincidences. Do they think life has to be entirely planned out and that we get to choose? If that’s the case, I’d choose not to have alter egos and just be born into a different family.” Claire snorted derisively and rolled her eyes, making Josh smile even wider—though the split at the corner of his lip made him wince. “Sergio is like a chameleon. He can change however he pleases, just like an alter ego. The only difference is that you’re unaware when your alter ego emerges, whereas he’s fully aware. In front of Andrey Ivanovic and everyone else, he pretended to know nothing about his mother’s family or that premeditated murder. He acted like an innocent little boy who knew nothing.

62. In Danger

Juan watched Tania, who was laughing happily because Leo had brought her a set of Barbie dolls and accessories. He didn’t want to interfere in their affairs, as that might ruin the mood. The ringing of his cell phone diverted his attention from their interaction, which looked just like that of a couple—it turned out Tania couldn’t resist the man’s charm. Ever since Leo’s arrival yesterday, the girl had been mostly quiet, gazing at him with a shy expression. At least that gave him a moment of relief, since his daughter had stopped whining and begging Arsen to come over. “What’s going on?” he asked as he answered the call from Andreo.[Claire told me that last night she went to Sergio’s apartment in Portland with Arsen. Laura was there with a swollen face, as if she’d just been beaten by Sergio. What’s going on? Should I report this to the police?] Andreo’s voice sounded panicked on the other end of the line. “Are you sure Sergio did it? If we report it to the police now, he might t

63. Sergio's True Color

Laura instinctively stepped back as Sergio approached her, and without realizing it, her hips bumped into the long countertop with two sinks on top. One of her hands fumbled for the wooden drawer beneath the counter just in case, even though a dirty thought had briefly crossed her mind.Sergio kept coming closer until they were finally standing right up against each other. Laura’s heart was beating faster and faster, especially when he leaned down to bring their faces closer. The warm breath brushing against her face made her close her eyes, waiting for what was to come next. A few seconds passed in complete silence, until the loud shatter of glass startled Laura and made her reflexively open her eyes. Sergio’s cold gaze was the first thing she saw, and gradually her heart began to sense that something was off about all of this.“Sergio, I… want to clean the kitchen,” Laura said, her body tense. Her hand immediately pulled open the top drawer closest to her feet, searching for anyth

64. Save Laura Alone

The heavy makeup on the girl’s face looked strange to Claire, but she ignored it. She answered her question with a nod and a smile. “I hate fall. Leaves are scattered everywhere—it’s so dirty and unsanitary,” the blonde girl ranted, clapping her hands as if she’d just touched something filthy. Gradually, Claire began to feel uncomfortable being near her. Suddenly she was reminded of Rose, whom Arsen had described as flirty yet still classy and not tacky. Without realizing it, she turned her head to look at the blonde girl’s appearance. Too short and alluring. She quickly turned her face away and closed her eyes, not wanting to meddle in other people’s business. It was better to recall her reaction after meeting Sergio last night, and the voice she’d heard earlier in her mind.Judging by the way she spoke, it was definitely Rose. She had no idea why that voice had echoed in her mind. She’d tried concentrating and hoping to hear it again countless times, but to no avail. Just like no

65. Lost Her

Arsen had initially estimated that it would take about five or ten minutes to finish his business, but it turned out that one of his professors asked him to speak at an entrepreneurship seminar, since he was already an entrepreneur. He really wanted to refuse the request, but unfortunately he knew the professor well and regarded him as a father figure. An hour later, he finally left the faculty building and hurried toward Park Blocks.Less than five minutes later, he had parked his car on the side of the road near the university sign, then looked for Claire. It was quite difficult to find her, because the park was much more crowded than when he and Claire had first arrived there earlier. “Claire?” Arsen called out to a girl with curly black hair wearing a white jacket who had her back to him. He felt relieved inside, realizing she hadn’t gone anywhere beyond this long stretch of the park. “Sorry, I had to attend an Entrepreneurship seminar for an hour...” His words trailed off as t

66. Searching for Claire

“Wait a minute! It says here that the receptionist saw a man with mixed American and... I think Spanish or Mexican features, carrying a girl with curly black hair...” “That’s them! They’re Sergio and Claire!” Arsen interrupted. “Was the girl wearing a white jacket and black jeans?” “How can you be sure that girl is the one you were talking about earlier?” the officer asked, furrowing his brow. “Because I was with her before we parted ways on campus; of course I know what she was wearing. So, where are they now?” Arsen asked impatiently. “We’re still investigating that,” the police officer replied, pulling a pen from his uniform pocket. “You said earlier that Sergio’s last name is Garcia, not Ivanovic?”“Yes, because his father isn’t from Russia—he’s from Spain. Now I have to get out of here quickly,” Arsen replied hurriedly. “Garcia? Is he the same person as this man?” the officer asked, holding up a sketch of a man he’d just pulled from the stack of files he was carrying. Arse

67. Under Sergio

"This is bad—Romeo has already managed to get to Claire," Leo reported to Jack and Brandon via video call. "What? How is that possible? Didn’t you say someone was watching Claire?" Jack snapped, his face grim. "They’re focused on the witness’s house, boss. Arsen was supposed to be watching Claire, but he’s busy at the university instead," Leo lamented. "Freddy just pinpointed Romeo’s location. He’s at a hotel near Haystack Rock. I’ll send you the exact coordinates right after this. Make sure we get there on time before it’s too late," Brandon replied hurriedly. "Jack, my team is heading out with just three of your men. Isn’t that too few?" "Leo, send an additional team. Make sure they only incapacitate the target,” Jack ordered as he grabbed his jacket. “Where are you going?” Leo asked as he ran toward his car. “I have to go there too. We don’t have any more time. Brandon, don’t forget to call an ambulance just in case.”After that, their call ended, and Brandon sent them Sergio

68. Rose Facing Sergio

That handsome face now looked up as he ran a finger over her lips, making her feel both sickened and disgusted. Any woman who didn’t know him well would surely fall head over heels and be ensnared by his charm. He was the kind of handsome man adored and fantasized about by most teenage girls—all because of the misleading influence of fictional characters. But if only they all knew that most handsome men actually often have sexual disorders or deviances like Sergio’s, they would surely think twice about fantasizing about men like that. “Do you think I’m stupid enough to untie the ropes on your hands? I don’t want to risk setting a monster free while we’re making love,” he replied with a condescending look. The fear that had completely overwhelmed Claire slowly faded, replaced by hatred and anger that grew with every passing second. Every action that man had taken in the past, every word that came out of his filthy mouth, and every condescending glance he’d directed at her whenever

69. Fight Like Real Men

Her eyes closed for a moment, then Kanzo came to and opened them just as Sergio swung the knife in his hand toward his face. Kanzo deftly dodged and spun, ending up near the bar counter. “A man who squanders his reason because of the shackles of lust that gnaw at his soul. That’s why you’re called insane, young man,” Kanzo said, then smiled as Sergio turned to face him. “You’re the one who’s insane, you bitch! Give Claire back to me!” Sergio snapped as he swung the knife again, but once more Kanzo managed to dodge it.The two continued to grapple, attacking and dodging, until finally Kanzo managed to lock Sergio’s arm and slam him hard onto the cold tile floor. One thing Kanzo didn’t realize was that Sergio immediately pulled his leg back, causing his body to tumble backward, landing on his butt first. Sergio swung his knife again, but Kanzo deftly kicked Sergio's hand, sending the knife flying. There was no time to rest; otherwise, that cold-faced man would slit his throat. Kanzo

70. A Complete Mess

At first, Arsen was really skeptical of Josh’s theory, but he drove on anyway toward Cannon Beach in Clatsop County. Time and again, he argued with Josh and made all sorts of threats, but Josh stood his ground. He called the heavyset police officer named Andrew Bredford, then called Leo to ask about any new leads. Unfortunately, Leo hadn’t found Sergio at any of the places Juan had mentioned, which only added to his anxiety. After all, Claire was just a girl who stood no chance against a burly psychopath like Sergio. “Where should we look for Claire?” Arsen asked as they entered Ecola State Park, which was lined with tall trees on both sides of the road. “That’s what I don’t know. There are plenty of hotels along the coast. We’ll just be wasting our time if we check them all one by one,” Josh replied, rolling down the window on his right side and feeling the cool breeze hit his face. “So what should we do? This isn’t a movie, so we’ll have to look for her the old-fashioned way,”
