Liam frowned, confused. He and Ariel have been in love for many years but have never heard that she still has an older sister, why suddenly a sister appears now.
“Have you asked carefully? Find someone to investigate her true identity! I didn’t know Ariel had an older sister.”
“Yes, I haven’t turned her over to the police, still in custody in Darkside.”
“Okay, let’s keep her for a while, see if we can find a way to detoxify Sylvia?”
“Yes, she refused to give the antidote. Very stubborn.”
Liam thought thoughtfully.
“It’s not easy for her to agree, having such a killing intent!”
Liam looked at the screen with a second phone call – Henris.
“Well, you go do your own business, I have other things to do.”
Ryan knew what he meant, and immediately said hello and hung up the phone.
“I’m listening, Henris!”
“Give you some good news, Liam. The scientific research institute I contacted has reported that there is an antidote to Tenula… but the quantity is very small, it is also very expensive, even more expensive than gold! I called to ask if you’d like to buy.”
Liam answered without hesitation.
“You bought it for me right away! I will transfer the money to your account.”
Henris was surprised, could Liam have found the love of his life?
“Wait a minute, I will tell you the exact amount. The scientific institute will coordinate with the hospital to transfer treatment and detoxification techniques immediately. But there will be an additional fee for the support specialist.”
“It’s okay, whatever you need to do, just give me the money you need. She must not die!”
“Okay, you wait for my good news.”
Liam breathed a sigh of relief, turned to the door to see Viola bringing in breakfast.
“Sir, please have breakfast.”
“Leave it alone, I have business to return to the Darkside for a bit! You take care of Sylvia, tell me anything, call me directly, no need to call Ryan.”
“Yes, boss.”
Liam finished his instructions and quickly left. He is anxious to know the true identity of the person who claims to be Ariel’s older sister, who is she?
Ryan couldn’t ask for any more information from Aria’s mouth. The information stored on the Carter family’s network also does not contain information about her, like an invisible ghost.
“Ryan, what’s up?”
Hearing the call, Ryan turned around startled. It’s Liam.
“I am investigating sir, no positive information yet. The Carters’ files also don’t have her name on them. But I found this note in Aria’s pocket, this is the security signature for Miss Airel before. Does the owner look familiar or not?” Ryan took from his pocket a crumpled, yellowed piece of paper.
Liam frowned slightly, examining it carefully. The letters are crooked and distorted. But the person who signed the warrant for Ariel’s surgery before was him, in an emergency that Ariel’s parents did not come in time, Liam used the identity of Ariel’s fiancé, asking to save the mother and daughter.
“This paper is a fake! Take me to her, see what she’s up to?”
Liam angrily crumples the paper in his hand.
Aria was tied with her hands behind her back, but her mouth was not covered, she sat on the ground, and when she saw someone entering, she looked up.
“Are you here, Liam?”
“Who are you, why did you infiltrate the Darkside, and dare to kill?”
“I’m Ariel’s older sister, to betray her, you and your dirty mistress deserve to die!” Aria half-smiled, her eyes ferocious like a wild animal.
“Ariel has no sisters, she is an only child. You’re a fake.”
Liam stared at Aria.
She didn’t seem normal, like a madman with jumbled words.
“I thought Ariel trusted you, but I didn’t expect things to turn out the way I imagined. It never even told you of my presence. Then you have to see this, untie me!” Aria smiled evilly.
Liam hesitated for a moment, he didn’t believe she dared to do something like that in front of so many people.
“Ryan, untie. Be a little careful.”
Ryan and a few others surrounded Aria, preventing her from playing tricks.
As soon as Aria was untied, she stretched her shoulders in delight. She leisurely pulled out an old purse from her pocket, took a photo from inside, and gave it to Liam.
“Look, who is this?”
Ryan took the picture of Aria and gave it to Liam, to avoid the boss getting too close to a dangerous person like her.
The photo is quite blurry but it can be seen that it was taken only a few years ago, when Ariel was a student, it was on the university campus. Ariel and Aria can be seen very close to each other, smiling happily.
“What, believe it?”
Seeing Liam’s half-believing half-doubt, Aria was extremely pleased.
“This photo doesn’t prove anything, you might as well be Ariel’s friend. The two of you don’t look alike at all.” Liam smiled, mocking.
“Look at the back, there are both of our names. This isn’t my real face either, just a fake skin.” Aria smiled bitterly. She reached out and took off her mask. The face behind makes the opposite person feel terrible, it is distorted, ragged, eyes are pulled up, no nose and lips.
Liam was also surprised. He looked at the back of the photo, and was amazed to see the words Aria Carter and Ariel Carter on the back, written in blue ink, the kind Ariel usually uses.
“You… why did your face become like that? You and Ariel are really sisters, why isn’t your name in the Carter family?”
The smile on Aria’s face distorted, as if she was about to cry.
“I never want to go back to that damn house. They don’t see me as a girl, for them only Ariel is beautiful and talented. But in the end, Ariel left them too. Deserved!”
Mentioning Ariel makes Liam feel unhappy, he feels Aria is jealous of his own sister.
“You haven’t said why your face is disfigured.”
“When we were on vacation in the mountains, that bungalow caught on fire. I was badly burned because I saved Ariel. After seeing my monster-like appearance, they decided to abandon me, their biological daughter. Looks like I’m dead! But luckily for me, there was a nurse who was merciful to my fate who brought me into her care. Thanks to her, I miraculously survived. I couldn’t go to school, but thanks to her teaching, I knew how to make a silicone mask, make myself a fake face.”
“You use your talent to impersonate people and kill people?”
Liam sarcastically.
“If you don’t live in my dire situation, you can’t understand how miserable I’ve been.”
