Chapter 523 

I kept my eyes on her, but suddenly, Sasha’s face started to blur. I shook my head, about to say something, when she spoke first. 

“It wasn’t his wife’s dream this time. He said he wanted to meet you.” 

“What?” The word barely left my lips before everything went completely fuzzy. 

Next thing I knew, I felt Sasha’s arm around me, her voice soft. “Just rest for a bit.” 

Rest? 

A little voice inside me questioned, but I couldn’t even open my mouth to respond. My eyelids felt heavy as lead, and I couldn’t speak. I felt myself being lifted, then placed in a car, though where they were taking me, I had no idea. 

At some point, someone held a cup of water to my lips. I drank, blinking my eyes open to see a tall, unfamiliar man. But I knew him–one of Thorsten’s bodyguards. 

Remembering Sasha’s last words before I blacked out, everything started to click 

1 shifted groggily and asked the man, “Where’s Thorsten?” 

He ignored me, turning to leave. 

That’s when I realized my hands and feet were bound, leaving me pretty much stuck. I glanced around, trying to get my bearings. The place looked like an old, abandoned repair shop, with stacks of worn–out tires piled nearby. 

It wasn’t hard to piece together why Thorsten had me here. He didn’t want me digging around in his past. 

Whatever he had planned, it wasn’t good. 

Panic washed over me. I wasn’t some fearless hero; the thought of death scared me, and my heart hammered with dread. 

But I forced myself to breathe. There was a reason they’d just tied me up instead of going further. The bodyguard had even given me water, which meant Thorsten likely wanted to talk first, 

Sure enough, a few minutes later, I heard a car engine outside, followed by the bodyguard’s respectful greeting: “Boss.” 

The door creaked open, and Thorsten stepped in, dressed head to toe in white. 

“Keira, we meet again,” he said with a smile. 

I didn’t flinch. “This isn’t exactly my idea of a pleasant reunion.” 

He chuckled, stepping closer. “Then why’d you insist on provoking me, hmm?” He settled into a chair his bodyguard brought over, his eyes locked on mine. 

“If you hadn’t harmed my family first, why would I ever need to provoke you?” I shot back, Sasha’s warnings echoing in my mind. 

Thorsten just smiled, calm as ever. “So, you finally figured it out. Doesn’t matter now, though.”

He looked totally unfazed, like this whole situation was just a small inconvenience. 

“What do you mean, it doesn’t matter?” My voice shook. “Are you admitting you paid someone to commit 

murder?” 

“Of course,” he said casually, like he was talking about the weather. “I paid off your parents‘ driver. He tampered with the brakes.” 

A chill shot through me. The way he spoke, so cold and detached–like those three lives meant absolutely nothing to him.
