Suddenly, Emily recalled what happened before she lost consciousness. At that time, she saw a stranger in the ward, and right after she said something, the stranger knocked her out and brought her here.
Slowly, Emily propped herself up with the support of the wall and walked over to Kevin, who was sitting on a chair. "Kobi, where are we?"
Annoyed, Kevin stared at her. As soon as Kevin thought of what Kobi had done to him, he wanted to stab a few holes in Emily's body!
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
However, Emily felt that Kevin's gaze was very strange. "What are you thinking, Kobi?"
At that moment, Kevin was staring at her without moving an inch, and his gaze made Emily a little scared.
"Come over here." Suddenly, Kevin grinned and spoke to Emily. Meanwhile, Emily hesitated for a moment before she slowly walked over.
"Slap!"
Caught off guard, Emily almost fell to the ground when Kevin gave her the tight slap.
Shocked, Emily's eyes widened as she exclaimed, "Kobi..."
Why did Kobi hit her? In fact, he was even looking at her with such cold eyes.
"You dumb woman, haven't you noticed that I'm not Kobi?"
"W-Wat are you saying?"
How could he not be Kobi? Clearly, he had the same face as Kobi.
Slowly, Kevin removed his disguise. Half of his face seemed normal, but the other half of his face was filled with scars in a criss-cross pattern, and it was exceptionally terrifying.
Ah...
When Emily witnessed how Kobi suddenly turned into another person with her own eyes, she was so terrified that she screamed and retreated.
Coldly, Kevin looked at her and smiled, "Oh, so now you're scared? It's too late!"
Stunned, Emily stared at him and stuttered, "W-Who are you?"
"You don't have the right to know who I am."
"Then what are you trying to do?" With her body against the wall, Emily stared at Kevin. "Do you know Kobi? No, wait. I'm sure you know him.
Otherwise, you wouldn't have disguised yourself as him. What about Kobi? What have you done to him?"
With a sneer, Kevin uttered, "I didn't expect that such stupid woman like you could even come to think of this. Well, I wish I knew where Kobi is too. In fact, the reason I brought you with me is to lure Kobi here. You'd better pray that you still could be used to lure him over. Otherwise, the only thing that awaits you is death!"
Only then did Emily understand what Kevin wanted to do. Then, she suddenly turned around and ran toward the exit.
"What a fool!"
Meanwhile, Kevin snorted and sat still.
Just as Emily's hand had touched the door handle, a wave of energy hit her from behind. Right after, she fell to the floor, and the pain nearly caused her tears to fall.
With a frown, Darren looked at Kevin, "Why didn't you tie her up? What if she ran away?"
As Darren spoke, he ignored Emily's struggle and found a rope to tie her hands and feet together.
With a glance at Darren, Kevin said, "I know you would not let her escape from this place." Then Kevin changed the topic and asked, "Who called you just now? What did the person call you for?"
Earlier, when Darren answered the phone, Kevin vaguely heard Darren mention Kobi's name.
