Chapter 553 Phantomflake's Last Mission



Day Sixty-Three...

~~*****~~

A deep crease formed on Jane's forehead when she heard his last remarks. "What do you mean by that?"

"I'm the one who had sex with Karina. You are right. Everything is for show. I pretended to be Dave. She made me wear a hyper-realistic mask so that I will look like Dave. At first, she was supposed to sleep with Dave after drugging him but he was allergic to the drug." The man confessed as he spoke spontaneously.

"So it means Dave didn't have sex with Karina. It was you." Jane questioned him as she paused the recorder. Jane was recording his confession so that she could use this to make Abigail believe that Dave was innocent. Whenever she would speak, Jane was pausing the recorder so that her voice wouldn't be included in the recording.ReAd latest chapters at novelhall.com Only

"Yes. Dave didn't do it. How could he? He was sleeping in Karina's car which was parked inside Dave's garage. I'm the one who entered the house with her. We purposely let Dave's girlfriend catch us in the act."

"When she left, I brought Dave to his room and stripped him naked. Karina wanted him to believe that something happened between them so that he would take responsibility. Karina was obsessed with him."

"That woman was madly in love with that guy that she willingly gave her virginity to me. She wanted Dave to marry her and pressured him using her father's influence. That's all I know. Now, can you let me go? I promise I won't tell anyone about you." The man revealed everything he knew because he was afraid of this woman. She was capable of killing him.

Jane was satisfied to hear this revelation. At least, she could clear Dave's name and he didn't have to blame himself. He was innocent. He didn't touch Karina.

"We need to talk. Come to my apartment by eleven. Don't be late."

"How dare you?! I don't want to see your face ever again!" Karina was truly pissed off.

The man let out a soft chuckle and said, "This will be the last time you will see me. Just meet me. If you won't come, I will reveal to Dave what you've done yesterday." The man resorted to threatening Karina. He knew that she wouldn't come to meet him willingly. He had to force her.

"Fuck You Tom!" Karina cursed him. "Don't you dare reveal the truth to Dave, I will hunt you down and make yourself miserable. You know my father. He is powerful to put you in prison!"

The man whose name was Tom just let out a sarcastic laugh. He knew that Karina could use her father's power and influence to make him suffer if he betrayed her. But at least, he still had the time to escape and flee. But this woman before him would torture him to death if he wouldn't follow her instructions. She was scarier than Karina and her father.

Jane ended the call. Her timing was right. She didn't let Karina speak again. Jane typed a message and sent it to her. [ I need more money. If you are even one minute late, I will tell Dave everything. ]

She knew that Karina would have second thoughts now, thinking that Tom was not bluffing. Also, she just let Karina think that Tom just wanted more money, and that's why he was asking her to meet him again.

"Now... I obeyed you. Can you release me now?" Tom asked her again in his desperate tone.

"I haven't met her yet. You are going to stay here for a while." Jane said with finality.

She stepped out of the torture room and changed her clothes again. This time she used her signature assassin clothes. All black– dress pants, sleeveless top with a hooded faux leather motorbike jacket, leather gloves, mask, and knee-high mid-calf military leather boots. She brought an assassin's blade, dagger, and gun.

Jane felt nostalgic when she saw her reflection in the mirror. It had been so long since the last time she wore this attire. She never regretted becoming an assassin. Because of this, she survived this harsh world and she learned so many skills.

"Sister! Pahntomflake is back!" Cherry was exhilarated seeing her in her usual assassin's clothes.

Jane smiled at her faintly. "Yes. Phantomflake is back. And this might be my last... and final mission." Jane was referring to solving the mysteries surrounding her.
