Even after Her Death (Chloe and Luke) novel Chapter 473

Chapter 473 Wisteria Still Alive? 

I had a strange and unsettling nightmare. 

Finisherf 

Ethan and Jake, who had already passed away, appeared before me with lifeless expressions and rigid movements, resembling the undead. 

A sinister voice, chilling like something from a horror film, echoed from their mouths.“Chloe, why didn’t you help me?” 

“Ethan, it wasn’t my fault, I swear it wasn’t!” 

I tried to run, but just as I moved, my body crumbled into pieces. 

Then, a head materialized–a bespectacled man I’d seen only once–now a disembodied head, floating eerily around me. 

“Chloe, my death was so tragic–return my life to me!” 

“No!” I screamed. 

The nightmare ended as I jolted awake, and Carter, who had been dozing off beside the bed, instantly turned his gaze to me. 

“Chloe, it’s okay. Don’t be scared. I’m right here,” he said gently. 

It took a moment for me to fully come back to reality, and then I threw myself into Carter’s arms. 

Cold sweat drenched my back as I clung tightly to Carter’s arm. “Carl, there was … a head.” 

He softly ran his hand over my hair. “It’s all right, it’s all taken care of. Captain Tucker has handled everything. Don’t worry.” 

“Who was behind it?” I asked, my voice trembling. 

“Damian apprehended a guy disguised as a delivery worker,” he explained. “The man admitted someone hired him to drop off the package at our house. I’ve already told the property management to handle all deliveries from now on.” 

Just the thought of packages made me terrified to even glance at another cardboard box. 

Each time I shut my eyes, that image of the bloodied head with its gaping wounds would flash before me. “Ugh…” 

Shoving Carter aside, I bolted to the bathroom, where I doubled over and vomited violently. 

All I had eaten earlier was a small bowl of cereal, so nothing but remnants of it came up. 

The sensation of dry heaving when your stomach is empty–desperately trying to vomit but unable to–is absolutely unbearable. 

I sat on the floor, retching repeatedly until I was spitting up bile. 

Carter knelt beside me, gently patting my back and offering a cup of warm water to rinse my mouth.

Chapter 423. Wisteria Still Alive? 

My stomach twisted painfully, and tears blurred my vision, leaving me feeling utterly miserable. 

Chloe, are you all right?” 

Whitney stood in the doorway, and a wave of exhaustion washed over me–I didn’t have the energy to engage with her. 

After a few moments, I managed to pull myself up and ask, “I’m fine. What are you doing here?” 

“Carter brought me over,” she replied. 

Carter scooped me up, carrying me back to the bed. Sitting beside me, he held my hand and gently asked, “Do you feel like eating something?” 

I knew I must’ve looked frail and drained. “I don’t want to eat,” I murmured weakly. 

“Chloe, you have to eat something–you’ve got a baby in your belly, remember?” 

Carter carefully wiped the cold sweat from my forehead with a warm towel. “You two have a talk; I’ll go whip up something for you to eat.” 

“Alright,” I replied softly. 

Worried I might refuse food made by anyone else, he headed to the kitchen himself, determined to prepare something that would tempt me into eating. 

Whitney handed me a cup of warm water. “Chloe, take a sip first,” she said. “On the way here, I heard we still don’t know if the target is me or the Sanders, so Carter brought me over for safety.” 

I grasped the cup of water, my mind in a daze. “When I first heard about that person’s death, I even thought it could be Taylor…”

Before I could finish, Whitney cut me off. “It’s not him. 

She must’ve realized her tone had come across too sharply to defend Taylor, so she quickly added, “Actually, he’s not as we thought. He doesn’t harbor such a deep grudge against the Sanders. Yes, he sees the Sanders‘ actions as wrong, but that’s all in the past now!” 

“But Mr. Carlyn’s obsession is overwhelming. From a young age, he was taught that revenge was his only you path. He had no power to stop what was unfolding. Even if my heart had been fine that night, Chloe, would still have died. 

“Wisteria seems to have an intense, obsessivę need for revenge against you. Though Taylor didn’t directly participate, he was fully aware of everything that was going on. When my resistance became stronger, he came up with the idea of using your heart for me. 

“Once you were reborn, Taylor had no intention of hurting you again. He let you go several times, hoping you’d distance yourself from them. He was exhausted by the hatred that had consumed him, but he couldn’t escape his past. Things had already gone wrong, and all he could do was keep making mistakes. He admitted that he couldn’t go back, which is why he became so fixated on marrying me. Deep down, he knew his future was doomed. 

“How could someone like that come after you again? If he wanted to kill you, he would have done it on Rosbel Island.”

Chapter 473 Wisteria Still Alive? 

Finished 

I understood all of the reasons behind it. I just didn’t expect Whitney to defend him, which confirmed that my earlier suspicion was right. 

“You still care about him.” I said plainly. 

Whitney paused briefly before speaking. “Chloe, we cant be together, especially with him gone now. Besides, the death of that individual has no connection to the Carlyns. They wouldn’t take someone’s life just because that person tried to reach out to them.” 

“Then who do you believe the murderer is? Someone killing at random and delivering the head to me?” 

Whitney shook her head slowly. “It just seems that the gruesome way they killed matches someone from that organization. But Taylor always shielded me and kept me out of their affairs, so I don’t know the details. Once, I accidentally walked into a room and saw someone cutting apart a body. It frightened me so badly I couldn’t sleep for three days, and I still can’t eat meat because of it.” 

“Have you ever met this Luther you mentioned?”
