George’s body convulsed violently, his eyes bulging in sheer terror. It was as if thick black ink had poured into his pupils,
drowning them in fear.
“No–please–I’m begging you, George sobbed uncontrollably. “Tll do anything, anything you want, just don’t kill me…
Ma stood off to the sole, her gaze cold as a frozen lake in the dead of night.
She remembered Lauren lying pale and lifeless on that cold operating table.
“Il spare you, who spared my Lauren?”
“My L
was born into a powerful family. She should’ve grown up in luxury, pampered and loved. But thanks to you two animals, her he was completely destroyed”
Her voice dropped lower, darker. Her knife never stopped moving.
George’s screams tore through the apartment.
Lauren was such a good person, and she’s gone. So why do you two pieces of trash still get to live?”
“You should’ve died. Both of you. You should burn in hell.”
The entire room reeked of blood.
For three full hours, Mia dissected George alive–cut by cut.
And through it all, George remained conscious.
He watched, fully aware, as his own body was carved open. He watched himself die
Sharon witnessed the entire thing, paralyzed by fear. Her whole body was rigid, her eyes dull and lifeless–like a puppet with its soul tom out.
Mia stared at what was left of George’s mangled corpse, her face blank
Then she turned her head toward Sharon. “Your turn.”
Just four words–but they hit Sharon like a thunderclap, snapping her out of her daze.
“No–no” she shook her head frantically, tears pouring down her face like floodwaters.
“Please, I’m begging you.
Mia looked down at her coldly as she wept.
“So the ones who cause pain are scared of death after all. When it comes to survival, you’ll crawl like a dog and beg for your life:
She slid the cold blade across Sharon’s face, and Sharon lost control, wetting herself in terror.
“Don’t be scared. You’ll be seeing your man real soon. He loved you so much–I’m sure he’s already missing you down there.
Mia raised the knife.
Sharon’s pupils dilated in panic. She didn’t want to die.
“You–you
can’t kill me!” Sharon suddenly screamed.

She moved the knife even closer.
Sharon shrieked, her voice cracking “If you don’t kill me–I’ll tell you a secret?
“A secret” Mia spected I don’t care. I want you dead. Even if it costs me my life.”
Her eyes med rest, wild and merciless. She wasn’t about to let Sharon buy time with empty threats.
The blade was just about to sink into Sharon’s eye-
“The secret is about Lauren Sharon shouted with her eyes shut tight.

A heavy, suffocating silence.
Sharon waited. And waited. But the pain never came,
She slowly opened her eyes.
The tip of the knife hovered less than an inch from her pupil.
The
Her eyes widened in terror, and she quickly shut them again.
Mia narrowed her eyes, a dangerous gleam flashing within them. “Speak. Clearly”
But Sharon said nothing. As long as Mia cared about Lauren, this secret could buy her time. Maybe even her life.
“Hah.” Mia let out a chilling Laugh. “Not talking? Fine. I’ll kill you right now. Lauren’s already gone. Whatever secret you’ve got -doesn’t matter anymore.
The blade drove straight into Sharon’s shoulder.
“Ah!” Sharon screamed, eyes snapping wide open in pain.
“Don’t kill me! I’ll talk–I’ll tell you everything!”
Mia yanked the knife tree and gave a cold smile. “Disgusting. You’d better say something worth hearing. If you’re just stalling. I swear your depth will be a hundred times worse than George’s.”
. A demon. That’s what Mia was. A demon
Sharon was drowning in fear. If she’ll known things would turn out like this, she never would’ve touched Lauren–not even for a call from Taylor.
Lauren had already let them go.
If they’d just stayed quiet, none of this would’ve happened.
Now it was too late.
Sharon stared at Mia in horror, her whole body trembling as she stammered out Lauren’s secret.
Mia hadn’t expected much. She only listened because it was about Lauren.
But once Sharon finished, Mia just stood there–completely frozen.
