Winner Takes All novel Chapter 815

Hopelessness, horror…

At that moment, Amber was confused as she wailed uncontrollably.

She felt as if her surroundings were spinning, her vision blacking out and the ground falling away from under her. She felt as if she was falling into a dark abyss.

The mysterious man’s words cut through her like a blade and mercilessly dashed all hopes that she had harbored.

Yes! It had already been three days and she should have been discovered long ago. But now?

Jack and her parents had already gone back… Where was her final hope?

All was quiet inside the room. Amber bit her lips until they bled. She continued to cry pitifully and hopelessly. She felt surreal and could not tell if this was really happening. Everything happened too quickly. It was so fast that she could not mentally process it.

Who could have thought… that the mysterious man who had been protecting them had been scheming all this time? Now he turned around and staged a plot right under their noses!

“Why are you … what’s the reason for doing this?” Amber begged and asked, “Who is that woman beside my husband?” Amber had never felt so terrified and hopeless. Now she felt absolutely lost and desperate as if she had fallen into hell.

“Of course she’s there to replace you.” The mysterious man shrugged and scoffed. His frostiness pierced Amber straight into her bones. Amber felt as if the mysterious man had turned into the devil.

“It’s about time for me to go back.” The mysterious man rubbed his hands and stood up. He looked down at Amber and said, “No one noticed that I took you away from Jack. Perhaps now I am the greatest devil to you but when I return to Jack and the others, I will still be their most trusted guardian angel. Isn’t that ironic?”

After saying, he did not bother with Amber who remained in the bed. He rubbed his chin and then mumbled, “Hmm… in order for me to have a more secure place in their hearts, I will still have to do something more convincing.”

After he said, whoosh, something flickered brightly in the air. Amber shuddered and was gripped with terror. Death seemed to engulf her.

But… stab… and blood splattered! Amber looked in terror as the long blade missed her and plunged into the mysterious man’s body.

“Mmph!” The mysterious man grunted in pain inside the patient’s room. But he started to grin sinisterly as he raised his head to look at Amber and said, “Look, am I more convincing with a deep stab in my thigh?”

Amber was stunned. Madness! Devilish! Perverse! Instantly she revised her attitude towards the mysterious man. He was a man who was devoid of principles, who was able to scheme with unscrupulously, and who now resorted to self-harm… was this even humanly possible?

“But, this doesn’t seem enough. I should have another wound.” The mysterious man said confidently and looked like a madman.
