“Oh? You think I love you?” Hades sneered. This is quite a good joke!
“Of course. Do you not love me? If you truly have no feelings for me, why did you choose me from among so many people back then?” Linda was convinced that she’d become his woman sooner or later as long as she loved him as well.
“Do you want to know the reason?”
Linda nodded tremblingly. “Yes.”
“Okay. I’ll grant your dying wish. Why did I choose you from among so many people? It was because I saw something in your gaze.”
“What was it?”
Then, Hades leaned down and whispered in her ear, “The desire to die. You were the one who desired to die most among them all, and only people who had lost all hope are of use to me.”
At that moment, Linda could hear her heart shattering, and she stared at him speechlessly.
Bang! A gunshot echoed in the castle.
Meanwhile, Selena returned to the hospital. She’d asked Melissa and Joshua to take care of Juniper here since she went to cook for Hades. Standing by the door, she stared at Melissa and Joshua, the two ‘buddies’ who’d been with her through thick and thin. All of a sudden, incredulity flooded her. Who else can I trust when even Linda was a spy Hades planted by my side?
Pushing open the door, she walked in. “Mel, Josh, thank you so much for today. I’m back, so you guys can go back and rest.”
Upon hearing Selena’s voice, Melissa looked at her with a smile. Her black clothes and pitch-black pupils made her appear cool and unapproachable, but she was actually an affable girl who was merely pretending to be cool. “Actually, you didn’t have to come back so early. You could’ve spent a little more time getting to know him.” She blinked suggestively.
