Trevor was satisfied with Nancy’s reaction. His lips curled into a mocking smile. “You didn’t expect that, did you?” Nancy’s eyes were full of hatred. Trevor said coldly, “And you didn’t expect her to be so skilled at boxing, too, did you?” Nancy was even more furious. She was the one who wanted Annalise’s life in the first place. But in the end, she was the one who fell into their hands. Trevor continued, “Annalise’s medical skills are brilliant, and her mentor is Joseph Quigley. She had already become a graduate student at 20 years old. Her techniques are even better than yours, the famous boxer. Nancy, how were you so bold to think you’re better than her?”
Nancy was even more indignant. Just wait. After she settled this matter, she would find another opportunity to end Annalise. Annalise was the bane of her existence. “Uh… You…” Suddenly, her throat was slit. She could feel the heat gushing out of her neck. She reached out to cover her neck. Her hands were covered in blood. She felt the strength in her body quickly draining away. Her body could not take it anymore. She went limp. She heard Trevor say, “My technique is not as good as Annalise’s. She can extend someone’s life for an hour. But my knife… will only kill people on the spot.”
“Ugh…” Nancy’s body went limp. She tried to stand up again, and blood instantly gushed down from her neck. Trevor quickly left the scene. About ten minutes after Trevor left the scene, the police siren sounded. A dozen armed cops went upstairs. When they reached the eighteenth floor, they discovered many bloodstains and the corpse of a masked woman. They took the fingerprints from the scene. Then, they removed her mask after swabbing her blood for a DNA sample. Someone recognized her as the eldest daughter of the Zeller family.
Immediately, he contacted Jimmy’s wife, Lily, to come and identify the corpse. After Lily identified the corpse, she hugged Nancy’s body, which had not gone cold. Lily cried so much that she was out of breath. Her heart ached, and she was furious. She gritted her teeth and said, “Please find the murderer and bring them to justice.” She would hire someone to investigate this matter, too. She would never let the murderer off. The police said they would do their utmost.
It was not only because the victim was the Zeller family’s eldest daughter, and her status was extraordinary. But more importantly, someone had been murdered in broad daylight in a place like Jadeborough. That was an utter disregard for the law. It was infuriating. Yechiel also rushed over. He could not believe his eyes. His precious daughter was gone. There were deep stab wounds on her neck, and the stench of blood was everywhere. It had been many years since he saw such a terrifying blood stain.
