Chapter 2025 I Will Outlive You
- The moment Talia saw Mia—just as Marcus had done—hope and desperation flared in her eyes. She reached toward the glass and pleaded in a trembling voice, “Mimi, you came to get me out, didn’t you? This place isn’t fit for human beings. Please hurry and take me away from here!”
- Mia’s expression stayed as cold as ice. “And why, exactly, should I help you walk free? Yes, the detention center is frightening, but even the bleakest cell can’t compare with the terror of death. You conspired to kill me. Tell me, Talia, what reason could I possibly have to rescue you now?”
- Tears spilled down Talia’s cheeks; remorse twisted her features. “Mimi, I know I was wrong. I never meant for it to go that far. I was... I was out of my mind, but I’ve come to my senses now. From this moment on, I’ll never plot against you again! You were nursed on my mother’s milk; we grew up like sisters. How can you bear to see me behind bars? Please, forgive me. I’ll spend my whole life repaying you—I’ll work tirelessly for you!”
