Now that things had reached this point, Amelie stopped denying it.


    She suddenly broke intoughter.


    Yes! Its all because of me! Wace has been ignoring me ever since you returned.


    Its all because youre the daughter of that vile woman! Amelies jaw tightened as she glowered at her murderously.


    I killed her, but I failed to kill you! Its my biggest failure! Hannahs eyes hardened, a chilling re directed at Amelie.


    Now you admit that you killed my mother! Yeah? So? With vacant eyes, Amelie pointed at Hannah and said, You think you can escape this? As long as you both die, I can get the Compton family and revive the Chadwich family! Hannah maintained her indifference, her expression unwavering.


    You did it to acquire the Compton familys wealth. She sneered.


    Do you really have the guts to act here? Gazing at Hannahs fearless expression, Amelie frowned.


    After a tense moment, she slowly lowered her gun and took a cautious step back.


    Observing Amelies retreat, Hannah sneered and turned to Wilfred with a mocking grin.


    If you kill me, you wont get a single asset from the Compton family! A glint of cruelty flickered in Wilfreds eyes as he turned to Hannah.


    He raised his hand andmanded Amelie, Tie her up first! We cant kill her! Then he nced at Wace, whoy motionless on the bed.


    ..


    Library He let out a sigh of relief and said to Amelie, We need to focus on Wace now. Thats our priority.


    Well have plenty of chances to handle Hannahter.


    Gritting her teeth, Amelie red at Hannah and warned, I suggest you behave yourself; otherwise… Otherwise, Ill turn your life into living hell! Hannahs eyes remained fearless.


    At Amelies threat, she couldnt help but smile contemptuously.


    Im afraid youck the ability to make that happen.


    Fuming with anger, Amelie had no choice but to approach Hannah and tie her up as Wilfredmanded.


    But as she approached the bed, Amelie suddenly saw Wace open his eyes. Startled, she stumbled back a few steps, her face going pale.


    He… He is… Wilfred cast a quizzical look at her.


    He was oblivious to what was happening.


    What are you doing? Go tie her up and get rid of Wace! Wace… Wace has opened his eyes! He is awake! Wilfred snorted and turned to look at the bed.


    What? I think youre imagining things… Ah! Wilfred shouted in horror.


    The man on the bed had propped himself up, his pale face fixed on Wilfred with an intense gaze.


    Startled, Amelie stumbled back several steps.


    Wilfreds legs felt weak, and he stammered, You… how are you awake?
