Chapter 2

On his way to the bathroom, Ethan met Emily's caregiver, which confused him.

"Mrs. Chen, isn't Emily with you?"

"No, she said she was going to find you this afternoon. I even sent her to the villa gate. I think she brought some kind of gift."

Ethan's heart suddenly skipped a beat. He hadn't seen his sister in the villa just now.

Cold sweat broke out all over his body as alarm bells rang in his head. He hurriedly rushed back to the Thompson house.

It was already late at night. As soon as Ethan entered, he almost bumped into the butler who had just finished cleaning up after the party.

"Ethan, why are you in such a hurry? Did something happen?" The butler steadied Ethan's body, asking with concern.

Ethan was almost in tears with anxiety.

"Mr. Chen, have you seen Emily? When I went to the hospital to find her, the doctor told me Olivia had taken her away."

"This is not good! Come with me!"

Hearing this, the butler immediately realized something was wrong. He had only seen Emily come in, not go out, and quickly led Ethan to search.

The secret room wasn't locked because no one dared to come here except Olivia. The two quickly passed through the dark staircase.

"Emily!"

The scene before his eyes almost made Ethan faint. Under the dim light, Emily's small body was slumped over, lifeless.

The butler's heart sank, and he immediately went forward to check.

His fingers trembled as he placed them under Emily's nose, then he collapsed to the ground in shock.

Emily...... was dead?

2.

Emily's body was covered in bruises, with needle marks left behind. Her face was pale, and her body was cold.

The gift she had brought was carelessly thrown on the ground, trampled and covered in dirt.

"Don't scare me, Emily!"

Ethan immediately rushed over to hug his sister. Seeing the girl's ashen face and rigid body, his heart felt as if it had been buried in an icy wasteland, completely frozen.

"Emily, wake up, open your eyes and look at me. I'm your brother! Who did this to you?"

Ethan's tears fell like broken strings of pearls, rolling down one by one in grief.

He couldn't believe his sister was gone. He called her name over and over, unable to accept this cruel reality.

"Emily, I'll call a doctor. Just wait a little longer, it'll be okay soon."

"Emily, are you in pain? Let brother blow on it, and it won't hurt anymore."

Seeing Ethan about to go mad, the butler quickly had someone hold him back.

"Ethan! Calm down. Emily is gone. Let her rest in peace."

Forced to let go of his sister, Ethan kept mumbling "It's not possible."

He couldn't believe his sister would leave him so easily. Just yesterday she was such a lively little girl, how could she become a cold corpse today? Who had taken her life?

"Mr. Chen, you must know what happened. Tell me who killed her. This is very important to me. She was my only family left!"

Ethan spoke each word with extreme pain, his saliva mixed with tears smeared all over his face. The butler couldn't bear it and had someone retrieve the surveillance footage.

Olivia was crazy. She had specially installed cameras in this secret room just to watch everyone's expressions as they took the drugs.

The course of events was cruelly presented to Ethan. He stared blankly, his eyes filled with despair and numbness, as if struck by lightning.

"Why! Why did you do this to Emily!"

He cried out in anguish, feeling hatred towards Olivia for the first time - extreme hatred.

He had long known about Olivia's bad habits, with drug use being one of them. He had never dared to question it, but that was his sister! How could these people treat a human life as a game!

Divine statues hung on the walls, yet these people were committing demonic acts. How ironic!

He held his sister's lifeless body, his eyes bloodshot, bloodshot veins spreading in his eyes. He had cried for so long that his tears had dried up.

"Revenge! I want revenge! I want these beasts to die a horrible death!"
