The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 1515

Suffering from so much pain, Lancy was panicking and wanted to cry out for help. But what she could only do at the moment was watch the man unlock the iron gate and enter.

As the man got closer to her, she sensed the change in the atmosphere. Chilled to the bones, she could smell death.

Realization hit her—she would die soon! She would be lucky to live for an hour more. At most, she only had minutes to go.

"So, are you here to kill me?" Lancy blurted out. Despite the trembling and the pain she felt in her body, she exuded composure. And, as seconds passed by, her body and her will united as one. Thus, what she felt slowly disappeared and was replaced by acceptance of the fate awaiting her.

Dressed in black and the face covered in mask, the man stayed silent and stared at her indifferently. In his opinion, the woman in front of him was already a dead person.

Suddenly, Lancy burst into laughter. Mocking the man before her, she said, "Do you really think you can get away with murder? You are so stupid! Nobody gets away!"

Shocked from hearing her words, the man suddenly felt confused. Lancy saw hesitation fleetingly cross his face. But in the end, she failed. The man quickly ignored what she said and concentrated on her. He was looking for that perfect timing.

Not really expecting any answer, Lancy just continued to talk. "In fact, I already knew that I would end up like this. But I don't have any regrets. I know karma. And, I know I did something bad, so I am prepared to take responsibility for my actions."

Finishing her words, she raised her eyes and stared into the man's eyes. "But," she continued, "now that I am about to die, there's no need for you to be so cautious. Why don't you take off your mask and let me know who you are? I'll die in your hands anyway."

"What's the point of knowing who I am? As you said, you are going to die anyway," he responded in a deep, low voice. Finally, the man was willing to talk.

"Ha, indeed, you are right! What's the point of knowing who you are? I am dead anyway! That's no point. That's no point, indeed! That's no…" Lancy repeated with a sad smile.

Tears started to well up in her eyes. After several moments, she forced herself to calm her emotions and spoke. "I am ready. Do it now! Kill me!"

"I guarantee you this will be very quick. You will feel no pain." The man's eyes were flickering with joy. He was just thinking that it would be better off if Lancy cooperated. And, he was gratified for his patience. Not long, Lancy completely surrendered in her own volition. This was the perfect timing he was waiting for.

Not saying a word anymore, Lancy closed her eyes for the last time and quietly waited for her death.

'Jarvis, I am leaving you now. Don't forget me!

If there is afterlife, I will stay by your side, and we will never ever part again!

Jarvis, I promise! I will wait for you in the afterlife. I will always look out for you there. I will find you!'

In the dark, the blade of a knife glinted. Then, a thud was heard. Lancy fell down to the floor. A long deep red gash was visible in her neck.

Everything happened in a flash! The man cut Lancy's throat which ended her life. Blood splattered everywhere, but there was not a stain, even a single drop, on the man's hand.

From where he was standing, he sized up the woman on the floor. He double checked the body for any sign of life. When satisfied with his latest work, he mumbled to himself, "What a shame! What a waste of a beautiful body!"
