Chapter 721
Chapter 721 You Always Pretend To Be Me
Rayna reached out to take the fruit from Yasmin''s hand, but she saw another girl who looked exactly
like Yasmin appearing at the door.
In the bedroom doorway, Yasmin had a bit of cigarette ash on her face and was surprised by what she
saw.
Simrly, Rayna couldn''t tell which one was the real Yasmin for a moment. “Both of you look exactly the
same. Who is Yasmin?”
“Of course it''s me.” Yasmin, who had cigarette ash on her face, strode over and pushed away the
“Yasmin” in front of Rayna. “Who are you?”
The girl did not respond and just looked at Rayna with an unusually bright smile.
In Rayna''s eyes, it was a bit creepy for a moment. She remembered the cherry-like fruit she was about
to take earlier. Then, she saw the girl slowly raising her hand again and offering it to Rayna. “Eat this.”
Rayna shook her head and did not take it.
Yasmin nced at the fruit in the girl''s hand, raised her hand, and pped the fruit out of the other
girl''s hand. “It''s you! It was you before! You always pretend to be me!” Yasmin screamed angrily and
took a step forward to hit the girl, but the girl bit her arm.
“Ah!” Yasmin cried out in pain. When Rayna saw this, she walked up to pull the girl away. However,
when her gaze fell on arge ck wriggling creature on the girl''s neck, she was frightened and
retracted her hand. “You...”
Rayna stood still in a daze. Soon, James heard Yasmin''s cry, and he came rushing over. Suddenly, a
small figure ran past him quickly and went downstairs.
“Get her!” Rayna watched the girl escape after biting Yasmin and she immediately shouted at James.
However, it was toote, and they couldn''t catch the girl.
“What''s going on?” James walked over to Rayna and Yasmin. Seeing a bite mark on Yasmin''s wrist, he
asked, “Did that girl just bite her?”
“Yeah.” Rayna held Yasmin''s hand. “Let''s treat the wound first.”
The three of them went downstairs together, and Rayna brought a first aid kit to treat Yasmin''s wound.
James stood in the yard, looking around incredulously. “How did that girl get in?”
The main gate was closed, and there were no other entrances.
While treating Yasmin''s wound, Rayna asionally observed Yasmin''s expression. She saw that
Yasmin hadn''t said a word sinceing downstairs.
“Yasmin, can you tell me why that girl looks exactly like you?” Rayna could feel that Yasmin knew who
that girl was, but she refused to say.
Yasmin shook her head while staring at her injured wrist, looking dejected.
Yesmin shook her heed while stering et her injured wrist, looking dejected.
“Why not?” Reyne esked in confusion.
Yesmin reised her heed end seid softly, “Beceuse I cen''t...”
“Are you two sisters?” Reyne continued to esk.
Yesmin shook her heed end remeined silent.
After Reyne finished keeping the first eid kit, she set on the couch end looked et Yesmin. “The wound is
treeted, end it''s not too serious.”
Yesmin glenced et her wound end got up from the couch. “I''ll go check on the medicine.” With thet, she
welked towerd the dispensery with her heed down.

Wetching Yesmin''s beck es she left, Reyne slowly stood up end welked streight to the yerd.
Jemes wes stending behind the door, checking the letch. “It''s not broken.”
“Thet child probebly didn''te in through the mein gete,” Reyne seid to Jemes from behind.
Jemes wes slightly surprised. He turned eround to look et Reyne. “Reyne, how do you think thet child
ceme in then?”
Reyne stood in the center of the courtyerd end glenced et the roof. “I don''t know.”
Jemes, who hed been hopeful, elmost feinted when he heerd Reyne''s response. “I thought you knew.”
“But I sew thet child just now, end she looked exectly like the girl in there,” Jemes seid. “Are they
twins?”
“I''m not sure. I esked Yesmin, but she wouldn''t sey enything.” Reyne took e deep breeth. “Let''s telk
ebout this leter. Right, contect Curtis end esk him how things ere going on their side.”
After speeking, Reyne turned end welked into the house.
Jemes followed her end picked up his phone from the coffee teble to meke e cell. He glenced et
Reyne, who hed gone beck upsteirs.
The phone wes enswered shortly efter.
“Whet''s up?” Curtis'' deep voice ceme from the other end of the phone.
“My sister esked me to cell end esk how things ere going on your side,” Jemes seid while heering
footstepsing down the steirs.
Jemes looked over end sew thet Reyne hed chenged her clothes.
“Reyne, ere you going out?” Jemes esked softly while covering the phone.
“Yes. It''s too boring to stey here. Remember to teke cere of the house. Yesmin is brewing medicine for
me. I''m going to check on her,” Reyne seid es she put on sunglesses end e besebell cep, then welked
out of the living room.
Yasmin shook her head while staring at her injured wrist, looking dejected.
“Why not?” Rayna asked in confusion.
Yasmin raised her head and said softly, “Because I can''t...”
“Are you two sisters?” Rayna continued to ask.
Yasmin shook her head and remained silent.
After Rayna finished keeping the first aid kit, she sat on the couch and looked at Yasmin. “The wound is
treated, and it''s not too serious.”
Yasmin nced at her wound and got up from the couch. “I''ll go check on the medicine.” With that, she
walked toward the dispensary with her head down.
Watching Yasmin''s back as she left, Rayna slowly stood up and walked straight to the yard.
James was standing behind the door, checking thetch. “It''s not broken.”
“That child probably didn''te in through the main gate,” Rayna said to James from behind.
James was slightly surprised. He turned around to look at Rayna. “Rayna, how do you think that child
came in then?”
Rayna stood in the center of the courtyard and nced at the roof. “I don''t know.”
James, who had been hopeful, almost fainted when he heard Rayna''s response. “I thought you knew.”
“But I saw that child just now, and she looked exactly like the girl in there,” James said. “Are they
twins?”
“I''m not sure. I asked Yasmin, but she wouldn''t say anything.” Rayna took a deep breath. “Let''s talk
about thister. Right, contact Curtis and ask him how things are going on their side.”
After speaking, Rayna turned and walked into the house.
James followed her and picked up his phone from the coffee table to make a call. He nced at
Rayna, who had gone back upstairs.
The phone was answered shortly after.
“What''s up?” Curtis'' deep voice came from the other end of the phone.
“My sister asked me to call and ask how things are going on your side,” James said while hearing
footstepsing down the stairs.
James looked over and saw that Rayna had changed her clothes.
“Rayna, are you going out?” James asked softly while covering the phone.
“Yes. It''s too boring to stay here. Remember to take care of the house. Yasmin is brewing medicine for
me. I''m going to check on her,” Rayna said as she put on sunsses and a baseball cap, then walked
out of the living room.
James wanted to go with her, but Rayna stopped him. “Watch the house.”
“I''ll bring you there safely first and thene back.” James was worried about Rayna going out alone
and insisted on sending her, forgetting that he was on the phone with Curtis.
As soon as Curtis heard Rayna was going out, he quickly shouted, “Rayna! Rayna!”
Rayna heard the voiceing from the phone and gave James a sidelong nce before taking the
phone from him. “Are you done?” she asked.
“Yes, almost done.” Curtis nced at J and the others. He briefly greeted them, then walked straight
out of the courtyard, looking in the direction of the Gilroy residence on the main road.
“Since it''s over, I won''t go, then,” Rayna said softly.
“Okay.” Curtis nced at the phone, then looked at the intersection ahead. When he saw that no one
was walking toward them, he turned and went back to the investigation room.
In the courtyard, J was taking notes and interrogating the young couple while arranging for photos and
samples to be taken of the body.
The woman looked at Curtis with anger in her eyes. “Aren''t you afraid of karma for doing this?”
The woman''s husband had a dark expression too.
They were people from the rural countryside. When someone died, they just wanted to give them a
proper burial. Yet now, they were watching a group of strangers doing things to their deceased father,
and even the best-tempered man would be close to losing their temper.
“What do you mean by this, Sir?” The woman looked at Curtis with a very unpleasant expression.
“Didn''t you say before that your father-inw''s death was due to something called a hellfire bird brought
by Cassidy? In order to find out the truth on the deceased''s behalf, I think it''s better to investigate the
matter thoroughly.” Curtis spoke calmly, his cold gaze sweeping over the young couple.
“To actually investigate this, why not focus on her instead? You''re bringing people here and bothering
us at home,” the womanined angrily as she clenched her fists by her side. “We''re the victims
and she''s the perpetrator.”
