Chapter 1537

However, Renee knew that something must be troubling Tess, so she didn't want to ask her anythingfurther.

In the afternoon, Margaret came home with the two children, and Tess clocked out of work. Tesscarried her bag and walked on the empty street with a troubled mind. Every step she took felt heavy.When she reached the door of her house, someone blocked her way.

"Did you do what I asked you to?” The woman wore black clothes and a large hat that hid more thanhalf of her scarred face.

"I did what you asked. When are you going to let my mother go?” Tess sobbed as she begged thewoman.

"Keep doing it. I'll let your mother go in ten days.” The woman grabbed Tess’ collar and threatened her,"Don't you dare play any tricks, you hear? Your mother is doomed if you miss a day or add a lowerdosage. Do you understand?"

"Y-Yes." Tess swallowed and dared not disobey her. Only then did the woman let her go, and turned toleave.

"Wait!" Tess stopped her.

"What do you want?”

"I want to ask what kind of grudge you hold against Ms. Everheart. She looks very kind, and she's blindnow. She's very pitiful, so why... do you want to do that to her?" Tess summoned her courage andasked the woman. She felt guilty since she was technically helping the woman harm Renee. If shedidn't even know why she was doing it, she was afraid it would be too much for her one day.

"Hmph! Kind?" The woman stopped, and her eyes gleamed with malice. "Do you think she's a goodperson? You can't even imagine the bad things she did and the people she harmed.”

“That's impossible. She didn't look like a bad person. Is there a misunderstanding between you two? Ifthere is, why don't you resolve it with her face-to-face? You'll be implicated too if you take revenge onher like this, don't you think?" Tess tried to persuade the woman so she could save her, Renee, andherself.novelbin

"I'm fine with it. After all, I died once. My only wish now is to see Renee fall into hell even if I go downwith her." The woman said and laughed bitterly. She took off her hat and pointed at the scars on herface.

"Look at my scars—it’s all because of her. Do you know what it feels like to fall off a hundred-meter cliffand get internal bleeding and bone fractures?” She pointed at her crippled left leg and her right handwhich was also scarred.

Coldly, she elaborated, "I experienced it once. It was very painful, both body and soul. I even wanted tokill myself... but I soldiered through it. I won't let her have it easy. If I die, I would've suffered fornothing.”

Briar's eyes were bloodshot as she recalled those painful memories. She had wanted to push Reneeoff the cliff, but Renee had accidentally pushed her off the cliff instead. She thought she was doomed,but a fisherman had come along and saved her. After that, she had to stay in bed for half a year to lether body recover.

She didn't know if that made her lucky or not.

During that half a year, she bided her time until she could finally make Renee experience hell.
