Chapter 2349: Chapter 2563

“I don’t understand.

You’re acting strange.

I want to leave.”

She attempted to stand, but Nathan seized her neck, forcing her back down.

At close range, the woman saw Nathan’s eyes, burning with a murderous fury more terrifying than the instruments of torture adorning the walls.

“I’m not a patient man.

If you don’t answer, I’ll make you wish for death.”

He would show no leniency to such a deceitful woman.

Terrified by Nathan, the woman struggled frantically, attempting to break free from his grip on her neck, but her efforts were in vain.

“When did you… realize I wasn’t Lucinda?” The woman gasped, tears streaming as the pain in her neck intensified.

Her anguished expression mirrored Lucinda’s perfectly.

Nathan’s hand trembled.

He loosened his grip, and the woman collapsed to the floor.

Turning away, hands clasped behind his back, Nathan avoided Looking at her face which clouded his thoughts.

He said, “I suspected you the day I took you from Hilldale.”

The woman was stunned.

“How could you? I look exactly like her.

Even though my voice is slightly different, I’ve made it sound hoarse.”

To complete her mission, she had painstakingly studied Lucinda’s mannerisms, expressions, and subtle movements for a long time.

Yet this man saw through her disguise on the first day.

Nathan, eyes lowered, didn’t look back at her.

He said composedly, “Lucinda has worn a red jade ring on her left ring finger for five years, and it can’t be removed.

Even if she cut the ring off, her finger would bear the mark.”

The woman was taken aback.

She instinctively touched her left hand.

“To confirm your identity, I secretly did a DNA test using your hair and my children’s.

To ensure accuracy, I went to ten military hospitals and got the same result each time.”

As Nathan spoke, he walked to the small table in the corner, picked up a stack of reports, and tossed them in front of the woman.

“See for yourself.”

The papers scattered on the floor.

The woman knew their contents without needing to look.

“You were in the back seat of Lucinda’s car on the day of the accident at Bay Tunnel, weren’t you?”

The woman grew anxious.

She hadn’t anticipated Nathan piecing it all together.

“You deliberately approached Lucinda.

Cory orchestrated the Bay Tunnel accident to capture her.

To evade the truck attack, Lucinda drove the car down the valley and vanished.

Cory replaced Lucinda with you.

What is his ultimate goal?”

Nathan bent down, pinched the woman’s chin with cold fingers, and scrutinized her face.

“You must’ve undergone a lot of plastic procedures to resemble Lucinda.

Surely, you know Cory’s plan.

If you divulge it, I might consider letting you go.”

The woman sneered, her eyes filling with tears.
