Chapter 867 The Identity of the Woman at Jack’s Side

Under the cover of night.

The whole city fell silent.

Only a few places were still vigorous.

By the river.

The surface of the river was sparkling and the wind was extremely wet and cold.

Wrapped tightly on her overcoat, Amber Knight stood shivering on the bank of the river.

Her hands were gloved in front of her mouth, and from time to time, she frowned and looked impatiently

at the road under the river embankment.

Finally, a pair of headlights came over.

The car drove to the road under the river embankment that Amber was facing and stopped.

Seeing the car headlights off, the impatience on Amber’s face finally disappeared.

The door opened.

After getting off the car, the Mysterious Man walked up the river embankment without any hurry.

“Why did you arrive at this time? Do you want me to freeze to death?” Amber complained.

And yet.

Slap!

The Mysterious Man raised his hand and slapped Amber’s face.

Amber screamed in pain, staggered to fall on the ground and, covering her face, looked at the

Mysterious Man horrified, “You…you hit me?”

“Are you impatient or what? If it weren’t for me, you would be already dead. Could a little cold kill you?”

The Mysterious Man stood in front of Amber and, looking down at her, said with a hoarse and arrogant

voice, “For them, you are Amber. But for me, you are that one I dug out of the ground…Shirley Lynn.”

As he said it out.

The river embankment seemed as if it fell into a dead silence.

Even the wind stopped.

The light was dim and it drew the figures of the Mysterious Man and “Amber” very long.

Amber’s expression changed dramatically, and her look showed mixed feelings.

There was resentment, hatred, and also a strong unwillingness…

Even her hands were clenched into fists, and made a faint sound.

The Mysterious Man squatted in front of “Amber” without any pity for her, lifted his hand and grabbed

the corner of “Amber’s” clothes, pulling it brutally to his face. Then he said with a harsh and cold tone,

“Shirley, I can dig you out of the ground. I can transform you and give you a new glorious life. But

remember, I can also tear off your face skin and bury you again in the ground!”

“No, I don’t want to!”

Shirley trembled with fear, raised her hand in panic and covered her face, “Please don’t do it. Yes, I’m

sorry. I’m wrong.”

Her tone of voice was tremulous and her body was shivering.

At that moment, Shirley was scared by the Mysterious Man’s words.

She deserved to die!

But God didn’t let her die, and when she was thrown away in the all black pit and the lack of air was

about to suffocate her, the grave was opened.novelbin

The man in front of her pulled her out of the pit and saved her life.

Then, he took three days to change her aspect and make her memorize all the details about Amber. In

just three days, he gave her the life she was having now.

She couldn’t be Shirley, but she didn’t mind to live in the skin of Amber now.

A glorious and luxurious life.

That was what Shirley had been longing for and pursuing unremittingly.

And she also targeted Jack as her first “prey”, but at the beginning, she had been ruthlessly played by

Jack as a pawn against the Parry Family.

That time, with the help of the Mysterious Man, she finally succeeded!

After going round and round, she finally got to Jack.

She wanted to take revenge, not now, but in the future.

Because the Mysterious Man told her that, in the future, after Jack would become the next Master of

the Hughes Family, she would get more prestige and glory and be at the head above all the wealthy

families of the world.

If the Mysterious Man torn off her face skin, all that she owned now and in the future would vanish in an

instant!

Shirley didn’t want it to happen!

She wanted all that!

“You are really wrong!”

The Mysterious Man released Shirley, stood up, his hands were behind him, and he faced the sparkling

surface of the river. His voice was very deep.

“Put away your stirrings of love. Don’t forget you are Amber now, you are replacing Amber at Jack’s

side. You can’t’ wait to sleep with Jack repeatedly. I know you want Jack’s bloodline to confirm your

identity. After all, if you get an offspring from him, even if your identity is revealed and the plan fails, he

will spare your life for the sake of his own offspring.”

Shirley looked flustered, and at that moment, her expression was completely different from that of

Amber.

She whispered and tried to explain.

But when she was on the point of opening her mouth, she realized that every organized single word

looked powerless in front of the Mysterious Man’s debunking words.

She wanted to sleep with Jack many times just because she wanted an offspring from him!

Once she got it, whether it was now or in the future, she would not only be free from worries, but she

would also get rid of the Mysterious Man’s manipulation.

Unfortunately, Jack’s repeated refusals made her mad and full of resentment.

Click!

The Mysterious Man lit a cigarette and exhaled a puff of smoke, then said solemnly, “You must

remember that you are Amber, you just had a miscarriage, and you are still a girl who just aborted. No

man who is a bit responsible would sleep with you at this time, not to mention Jack!”

As he spoke.

The Mysterious Man turned round and his pair of eyes burst out a sharp ray of light.

“You are too horny and impatient, you will gradually make Jack suspicious. Even me, I have to be

careful in dealing with his astuteness and shrewdness. How can you be so confident with a man who

buried you “dead” and expose your mind to him so…obviously?”

“If you act like this, you won’t get an offspring from him and you are not considering your future stability.

You are killing yourself step by step with your own hands, and you are making Jack feel suspicious.

You know…how stupid you are?”

“I…”

Shirley was completely stunned, her eyes moved swiftly, and said in panic, “You, you mean, I have

been discovered?”

“I’m not sure!” the Mysterious Man said.

He frowned and exhaled a thick smoke. “It’s still too soon for Jack to react. However, it’s only a matter

of time before you are exposed. Why do you think I let him go to the Dragon Cavalry? To keep him

away from you!”

“Didn’t you say that you can’t protect him in the current situation?” Shirley asked terrified.

“You are so foolish!”

The Mysterious Man chuckled, flicked his cigarette into the river, and waited for the spark to turn into a

parabola and disappear in the darkness, and then he said, “I know better than any of you the Bloody

Trap affair, if we want to protect Jack, with our current power, and if we put to good use our abilities, we

actually can do it!”

“The main purpose of sending him to the Dragon Cavalry was to keep him away from you and contain

your lust!”

At that moment.

Facing the Mysterious Man’s cold gaze, Shirley was suddenly exposed to the sunlight and, under

everyone’s eyes, she felt so ashamed that her body seemed to be on fire.

The Mysterious Man stepped forward, without any mercy, lifted a foot, and kicked Shirley on the

ground.

“Remember! You are Amber now, not Shirley. Shirley…is dead!”

“Everything you hope to get will be yours within three months, when Jack will be designed as the next

Master of the Hughes Family, but until then, a single slip from you will be enough to ruin everything.”

“Play well the role of Amber, and if you have time, go to Shirley and put incense on her grave!”
