Chapter 193: Chapter 193: CBack to Life.
The official personnel always act with extrcaution, only making a move when fully confident, but he cannot
wait another minute.
Daisy Ginger is here; his intuition tells him that lan Linton has run out of places to hide her, and except for this
small island in the sea, he has no other place to conceal Daisy Ginger.
Edward Stephens went ashore and walked straight towards the villa door.
The luxurious and exquisite villa hall unfolded before him.
The air was filled with a faint scent of roses, the perfDaisy Ginger regularly uses. He narrowed his eyes
slightly and looked at the entrance for a few seconds before stepping into the hall.
The villas interior was warmly decorated, even faintly styled like Daisy Ginger's villa; on the crystal coffee table,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇta few fresh purple roses were placed in an Italian-style vase. Edward Stephens raised his hand to gently touch
the petals, noticeably feeling that they had just been picked.
Someone lives here.
He looked around but saw no one, so he calmly withdrew his gaze and headed to the villa’s second floor.
He wasn’t afraid of lan Linton laying a trap here, or perhaps he even hoped lan would make a move on him. He
couldnt wait to beat this guy to a pulp.
As various bloody scenes swirled in his mind, he cautiously walked upstairs, his footsteps so light that barely any
sound was made.
Quickly, he reached the second floor.
Standing at the stairway, he looked forward to see several guest rooms; he furrowed his brow, not in the mood to
search each one. So, he stood at the opening and spoke: "lan Linton, stop hiding. Your actions have been
exposed, the police will soon surround this island. Don’t waste tplaying hide and seek, it's too tedious."
The villa was too quiet, and with his words, the wind seemed to carry them through the entire building instantly.
It was silent, even creating echoes.
Edward Stephens paused for a moment, not hearing any response, clicked his tongue lightly, took out a cigarette
and was about to light it when he heard faint human sounds coming from the bedroom three meters away.
The man froze momentarily, quickly sprinting towards the bedroom; he pushed the door open and his pupils
contracted violently for a moment upon seeing the woman on the bed: "Daisy Ginger!"
Daisy Ginger was tied up on the bed, completely disheveled, the broken leg twisted at an odd angle with blood
seeping through the white bandage wrapped around it. Her mouth was covered with transparent tape and her
eyes were blindfolded, making muffled sounds of agony.
He hadn't seen her for four whole days; previously, he didn’t think four days were long, but seeing her alive in
front of him now, Edward Stephens felt a wave of unprecedented relief spreading from his limbs and bones, all
the fatigue, muscle soreness, heart malaise, and nerve pains he had been enduring seemed to return to him all
at once.
He's alive.
He took a breath, quickly walked in, lifted her from the bed, and held her in his arms as he removed her
blindfold.
Daisy Ginger was covered in cold sweat; upon seeing the light again and Edward Stephens, her eyes were full of
terror, making muffled noises from her mouth. Edward, noticing her strange demeanor, thought she had been
psychologically tormented by lan Linton’s abuse these days. As he was about to tear off the tape over her lips,
he suddenly sensed something, blocking her carotid artery with his fingers. His palm cooled, a sharp blade sliced
through his flesh, and blood splattered instantly.
