Chapter 115 Chapter 115 So That's It "No, you're not a stand-in." At that moment, my brain was racing. If Lily was just a stand-in, the realwas as good as dead.

"You should know after I married Leonard, the women around him kept changing. But you..." "But I was the one who looked the most like you, right? Luca said the sthing." Lily walked aroundin circles, her eyes glinting with madness. My hands were bound, my head was spinning, and I felt completely powerless.

"I used to be a hostess at a karaoke bar. After I gave birth to my baby, I couldn't find any decent job, so I went back to working as a hostess.

"Luca, with his hypocritical righteousness, had a thing for innocent college girls. He laid eyes onright away. At spoint, she pulled out a switchblade, which she casually waved in front of me, the sharp edge glinting ominously.

"Luca then arranged forto get close to Leonard. At that time, I thought Leonard had fallen for me. You have no idea. I was almost dying from happiness "I thought the whole Harmon family adored me. Leonard was head over heels for me. He kept buyingthings I never dreamed of, like sandals costing thousands of dollars.

She went on and on, tellinghow Leonard had showered her with affection, how she had gone from a hostess to being treated like a princess.

I knew that Leonard was the type of person who'd give you the world if he loved you.

But it was clear his affection for Lily hadn't lasted long, especially since he never actually slept with her.

"At first, I thought he was so pure, so different. We had this spiritual connection, you know? Because he was married.

"But then you showed up at the company. The first tI saw you, I nearly threw up!" Lily pressed the blade against my neck, dragging it slowly back and forth.

"You've gotten so skinny, I can totally see it. You and look alike, especially after I put on makeup-we're even more similar then.

"That's why Luca was so confident Leonard would fall for me. That's why he picked me. I see it all so clearly now! "I was wearing a white dress and looked just like you. He showeda picture, and we really do look alike. "Leonard never touched me. I drugged him twice, but both times, he called out your name. Eva!" I felt the sharp edge of the knife cutting into my neck, a thin line of blood trickling down.

My nerves were shot, and I knew that in my weakened state, any infection would be fatal. Lily was losin losing her grip on reality. She babbled on about her love for Leonard and then, just as quickly, switched to how he didn't love her at all. Then she looked at me, her eyes wild. "I was pregnant with Luca's baby. He toldto pin it on Leonard." Chap 11596 TIGERİL "My baby... My baby was just like me. Unwanted. Unloved. And now he's dead!" This was probably the first tI saw her genuinely sad, either overwhelmed by grief or heartbreak.

I closed my eyes. "You know I didn't kill your baby." She knew it, too. If the child was Luca's, there was no way the baby would be allowed to survive.

Luca's wife was ruthless. There was no chance she'd tolerate the existence of an illegitimate child.

Moreover, the illegitimate child was even more unlikely to be born with Mr. Harmon Senior and Leonard in the picture. "I know the baby was part of the Harmon family. But what does that matter?"

She wiped away her tears, "Leonard wantsdead. The, The cops are after me. All want how is just money so I can flee the country." She yanked on my collar, pullingclose. "You're my bargaining chip." In her frenzy, she must have tugged too hard. A button popped off my shirt, revealing a scar beneath.

She ripped my clothes further open without hesitation, exposing the surgical marks.

She screamed in shock. "What is this? Is this a surgical scar?" The fear in her eyes quickly morphed into twisted amusement.

Holding the knife, Lily began laughing, a wild, crazed laugh that echoed through the room. Then she cutched her stomach, Yooking atwith a room.

manic grin. "So, that's it. That's what this is all about. Now, it all makes sense!"
