Chapter 813 Not a Bad Ending

Meanwhile, in a warehouse behind the hospital. The lighting was dim, and the area was littered with trash and waste. It also smelled of rot. James worked his way through the mess. Vanessa was tied up in a wedding gown in the warehouse’s corner. Her mouth was taped shut. When she saw James, she started sobbing miserably. James came up to her. He grabbed her chin and glared darkly at her. “Why did you wear the wedding dress? Don’t you know I’ve prepared it specifically for Tamara?” Vanessa felt shivers down her spine. Fear gripped her entire being as she shook her head wildly and sobbed. James tightened his grip on her chin. “Do you think I’m dumb? That I wouldn’t know you like me?” Vanessa continued to shake her head wildly. She begged for mercy with her eyes. “You don’t like me?” James tightened his hold on her chin. Vanessa stopped. She slowly nodded, and her eyes glistened with newfound hope. She had accompanied James to his ward but lost consciousness upon arrival. When she came to, she was horrified as she realized her location and found herself wearing the wedding dress from earlier. James must be the person behind this! He must be furious that Vanessa had put on Tamara’s dress! Vanessa started to regret following Tamara’s request after the realization. She had looked into James. She knew James was the person behind Jessica’s death. Since then, some of her love for the man had been replaced by fear. Vanessa knew the man was punishing her. James smirked, “Very well. You do like me. Answer my question. You have to be honest with me.” Vanessa nodded hesitantly. James took out a knife and toyed with it slowly. “Will you die for me?” Vanessa’s eyes flew open at this. She struggled against her restraint and tried to scream, but all her words came out muffled. He wanted her dead! He was going to kill her! How could he do this? Vanessa’s fear only further infuriated James. He rested the knife against her face. “But you like me, don’t you? Since you do, wouldn’t it be normal for you to die for me?” Tears rolled down Vanessa’s cheeks. Her entire body tensed from the fear, and she kept shaking her head. James pressed the knife into her skin. Pain immediately shot through her. Vanessa screamed. Still, the tape was preventing her from forming coherent words. James stopped. He observed Vanessa’s frightened look and smiled, “You know too many of my secrets. Tell me, what should I do with you?” Vanessa shook her head. She wouldn’t tell anyone anything! “Don’t you know how the saying goes? Dead man tells no tale,” muttered James gently. His honeyed words were laced with poison. James straightened up slowly. He looked down at Vanessa. “A woman fell in love with another woman. But one day, she found out that the woman she loved was in love with another man. The woman was jealous and decided to imprison the other woman. She hurt and tortured the other woman. In the end, she even allowed the man to fuck the other woman until she died. Isn’t that a fascinating story?” Vanessa was alarmed by the calmness in James’ gaze. It was as calm as the darkest of nights. It messed with her mind and left her in a trance. James continued, “Vanessa killed Jessica. The killer grew fearful and ran away. But she was caught in the end and was sentenced to death. Hmm. Not a bad ending.”
