Winner Takes All novel Chapter 867

Under the cover of night.

The whole city fell silent.

Only a few places were still vigorous.

By the river.

The surface of the river was sparkling and the wind was extremely wet and cold.

Wrapped tightly on her overcoat, Amber Knight stood shivering on the bank of the river.

Her hands were gloved in front of her mouth, and from time to time, she frowned and looked impatiently at the road under the river embankment.

Finally, a pair of headlights came over.

The car drove to the road under the river embankment that Amber was facing and stopped.

Seeing the car headlights off, the impatience on Amber’s face finally disappeared.

The door opened.

After getting off the car, the Mysterious Man walked up the river embankment without any hurry.

“Why did you arrive at this time? Do you want me to freeze to death?” Amber complained.

And yet.

Slap!

The Mysterious Man raised his hand and slapped Amber’s face.

Amber screamed in pain, staggered to fall on the ground and, covering her face, looked at the Mysterious Man horrified, “You…you hit me?”

“Are you impatient or what? If it weren’t for me, you would be already dead. Could a little cold kill you?”

The Mysterious Man stood in front of Amber and, looking down at her, said with a hoarse and arrogant voice, “For them, you are Amber. But for me, you are that one I dug out of the ground…Shirley Lynn.”

As he said it out.

The river embankment seemed as if it fell into a dead silence.

Even the wind stopped.

The light was dim and it drew the figures of the Mysterious Man and “Amber” very long.

Amber’s expression changed dramatically, and her look showed mixed feelings.

There was resentment, hatred, and also a strong unwillingness…

Even her hands were clenched into fists, and made a faint sound.

The Mysterious Man squatted in front of “Amber” without any pity for her, lifted his hand and grabbed the corner of “Amber’s” clothes, pulling it brutally to his face. Then he said with a harsh and cold tone,

“Shirley, I can dig you out of the ground. I can transform you and give you a new glorious life. But remember, I can also tear off your face skin and bury you again in the ground!”

“No, I don’t want to!”

Shirley trembled with fear, raised her hand in panic and covered her face, “Please don’t do it. Yes, I’m sorry. I’m wrong.”

Her tone of voice was tremulous and her body was shivering.

At that moment, Shirley was scared by the Mysterious Man’s words.

She deserved to die!

But God didn’t let her die, and when she was thrown away in the all black pit and the lack of air was about to suffocate her, the grave was opened.

The man in front of her pulled her out of the pit and saved her life.

Then, he took three days to change her aspect and make her memorize all the details about Amber. In just three days, he gave her the life she was having now.

She couldn’t be Shirley, but she didn’t mind to live in the skin of Amber now.

A glorious and luxurious life.
