Amber took a deep breath to brace herself up. She suppressed the feeling of nausea and leaned toward the computer screen, carefully observing the person in the photo.
Although the person was disfigured, she could still tell that he was a man.
The longer she observed it, the more familiar it was. She should have seen it before.
Where was it?
Amber bit her nails and pondered.
Suddenly, an attractive face flashed across her mind.
Amber was startled as she shouted out a name instinctively. "Talon Rylands!"
"Bingo," Jeremiah heard the name and the smile on his face became wide. "You're smart. I didn't expect you can be so quick."
Amber's heart palpitated. "What did you do to his face?"
"No, no, no!" Jeremiah waved his index finger in the air. "Not only his face. Do you want to see his limbs?"
Jeremiah was almost whispering as if it was a normal thing. This sent a chill down Amber's spine.
People who did the evil deed but acted like nothing were horrible.
Jeremiah was simply a devil who disfigured and crippled others.
The rest photos were probably Talon's crippled limbs.
At the thought of this, Amber's stomach started to churn.
She quickly turned off the mailbox and lay at the corner of the table, retching again.
She threw up so violently that her entire face was flushed red from the discomfort. The redness started to spread towards her eyes.
Jeremiah got excited when he listened to Amber's retching sound. It was nothing happier than this.
He sent Amber these photos on purpose.
Jeremiah punished her for the obvious difference between her attitude towards Jeremy and him.
"Are you alright?" Jeremiah pretended to be concerned while looking at the bustling city in the dark.
Amber panted heavily. "You're a monster!"
Jeremy narrowed his eyes suspiciously. "Oh? I'm taking revenge for you! How am I a monster? How can you say that to me?"
As expected, she was biased.
She wouldn't have said this if Jeremy did this.
"Aren't you a monster?" Amber bit her lip angrily. "Look at his face! What do you want?"
"I told you! I'm taking revenge for you." Jeremy blinked innocently. "Have you forgotten what Talon did to you? He pushed you off the cliff."
"That's my business. I'll do it myself. Stay out of it." Amber clutched her phone tightly and shouted, "You could have handed him over to the cops and let the law do justice. Why did you put him to lynch?"
Did he know it was against the law?
Amber didn't care about him, but he had taken Jeremy's body. If he broke the law, Jeremy wouldn't escape it.
After all, the law didn't exempt dissociative identity disorder from crime.
"Why should I hand it over to the cops?" Jeremy smiled disdainfully. "Isn't that too good for Talon?"
