Chapter 1381
"Shut up!" Elysia finally snapped, cutting him off mid-sentence.
"| told you everything at the hospital last time, remember? You say you're doing this for me? No-you're doing it
for yourself!"
"Don't pretend you're skind of martyr, doing dirty things for others’ sake, just to excuse your own mess!"
"You keep saying you love me. What exactly do you love about me?"
"If you'd ever thought aboutfor even a second, you wouldn't have done any of those disgusting things!"
"Lying to women, stealing the Newsom family fortune, human trafficking, plotting to poison people and then
selling the antidote "
"One after another, these things prove just how rotten you are!"
"Your cover's blown. No one believes your act anymore. Just face it."
"All those horrible things you did? It's because you're vile, cruel, and selfish. Don't blanyone else!"
"I'll say this one last time: stop saying you love me. It makessick!"
Without another word, Elysia hung up.
She didn't give Zane a chance to call back-she blocked his number instantly. But almost immediately, a text
cin from an unknown number.
It was Zane again, trying with a new phone.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt[Elysia, | know you're angry atright now. | get it. You don't want to hearout, but please, wait for me. I'm
coming to find you.]
[I really do love you. I'll explain everything in person. I'll confess my feelings, I'll propose, just givea little
more time. | swear | can give you the future you deserve!]
Elysia stared at the message, gagging.
She'd barely caught her breath before she decided to call Tarquin. Why could Zane still call and text her?
Tarquin had left for work that morning, promising police would arrest Zane today.
But before she could dial, Tarquin's nflashed on her screen.
She answered in a hurry. "lI was just about to call you. What's going on with Zane?"
Tarquin sounded tense. "What happened?"
"He just called and textedfrom a random number, spouting his crazy crap. Didn't the police catch him?"
"...He got away."
Elysia's eyes widened. "He what?!"
"Yeah. | just got the news."
"How the hell did that happen?!"
She couldn't wrap her head around it. Tarquin's guys had been watching Zane,
the cops had been onto him for ages-how did he just disappear?
Tarquin explained, "There's a mole in the department. Zane got tipped off early. He took a hostage and with
the mole's help, escaped in a police car." s
Elysia's stomach twisted.
"The people he hates most are you and Winona. He can't get to you-do you think he'll go after Winona?"
Tarquin's jaw clenched. He didn't answer right away, but the answer was obvious.
Winona had destroyed Zane's last chance at power. Tarquin and Elysia had gotten involved because of her. To
Zane, Winona was enemy number one.
If he got the chance, he'd go after her-no question.
Zane on the run meant Winona was in real danger.
Tarquin tried

to let his worry show, not wanting to
stress Elysia out even more. "Don't
panic. The police haye(put Gif oh’

dead too. He'll be hiding out, keeping
his head down for a while." The
