Chapter 567 Keh’s Voice?
The incident happened so unexpectedly that Elise didn’te to her senses until a dozen secondster.
She quickly ran to Faye’s side in an attempt to give her first aid, but the instant she touched Faye’s wrist,
she immediately gave up trying to rescue her. She has no pulse anymore, she thought.
While Elise was distracted, the car that had knocked Faye dead swiftly made a U-turn and disappeared
from the nearest intersection.
Elise looked at Faye, who died with her eyes open. Wait a minute. Technically, it’s “me” who died with my
eyes open. At the thought of this, she suddenly realized that the perpetrator wasing at her. Holding
Faye in her arms, she quickly scanned her surroundings with her eyes before quickly focusing her gaze
on the surveince camera on the other side of the street. With the surveince camera, everything
would be easy, she thought.
Having called the ambnce, Elise hurriedly left the scene. Before leaving, she took off the mask on
Faye’s face.
Half an hourter, photos of a car ident at the back alley of Sierra Hotel quickly went viral on the
inte. Elise purposely edited the surveince video, removing the second half of it so that the video
received by reporters only showed Faye lying in a pool of blood while sporting her face. As a result, the
victim of the car ident became “Elise.”
…
Meanwhile, Keh was leisurely sitting on the couch in his vi while chatting with La.
Engrossed in the conversation, La produced photos of herself when she was younger, asking Keh
toment on them.
Taking the cell phone from her, Keh pretended to take a look at the photo before giving her a look of
amazement. “This is clearly an angel that came down from heaven!”
“Hehe!” Pleased, La giggled with a double chin while not forgetting to take a dig at Quentin. “Aw, you
speak so sweetly as if your lips have been coated with honey! Some people simply wouldn’t learn from
this.”
Quentin was dismayed by La’s sudden criticism as he sat across from them. He smacked his lips, but
he dared not interrupt La in the end.
After a brief pause, La let out a sigh and startedmenting, “Sigh, what’s the use of being good-
looking in the past? Now I’m just a fat and old woman who’s despised by everyone…”
“Don’t use me of that! I’ve never despised you.” Quentin weakly defended himself. “And besides,
what’s so bad about being chubby? Chubby people bring good fortune; a family will only prosper if the
lady of the house is chubby!”
“Shut up!” La rolled her eyes. “You know nothing about women!”
“Can’t I evenpliment you?” Quentin looked depressed. Isn’t Keh a man as well? Why doesn’t
she say the same thing about him? What’s so good about him except that he’s younger, more
handsome, and more muscr? Women are all creatures who judge men based on their looks! After
patting his butt, he put aside the iPad he had used to read the news and stood up. Walking up to the
French window, he had a stretch to let the sun make his helplessness go away.
Keh unconsciouslypressed his lips into a faint smile as he watched the couple argue. They
squabble sometimes and care about each other, but they’ve never let each other go. I guess this is what
it means to be together until the very end of their lives. After a moment of silence, he crept to La’s side
and whispered, “I have a female assistant who looked about as chubby as you are when she was at her
fattest. In just two years, she’s be a lovable stunner. I’ll have herpile the process into a detailed
n and bring it to you personallyter.”
La’s eyes crinkled in a smile. “Haha! That’d be great! You and Elise really have the same idea, huh?
With her conditioning my body and you helping me search for ways to lose weight, I’m definitely gonna
be able to slim down!”
Just then, Joey, who had been ying with her phone the whole time, suddenly whispered in a grave
voice, “Oh, no! Sis had an ident.”
Upon hearing her words, Keh, who had been talking cheerfully just now, instantly became
expressionless. He stood up and walked up to Joey in a big stride before reaching out his hand to her
with a stony expression. “Give it to me.”
Joey was startled with fright when she looked up and met the man’s stern gaze. Aftering to her
senses, she slowly put her phone in his hand.
Lowering his head in silence, Keh quietly read the news reports of the car ident. The instant he
saw the side of Elise’s face in the photo, he held his breath at once. Clenching his teeth, he gulped a
mouthful of saliva before shoving the phone back in Joey’s hand. Then, he swiftly took out his cell phone
and pressed the speed dial button.
Thomas answered the phone immediately. “What’s the matter?”
“I don’t care where you are. Text me your location now; I’ll have someone pick you up right away!”
Keh said before hanging up.
After a brief deliberation, the man finally turned to look at the Fassbenders, who had no idea what was
going on. “Please stay here and don’t make Elise worried. I’ll bring her back safe and sound,” he said
before leaving in a hurry without even realizing he had been speaking in Alexander’s original voice.
It wasn’t until the door was banged shut that everyone gradually came to their senses.
La sensed that something was amiss. “Keh’s voice…”
Quentin had always been a little displeased with Alexander, so he didn’t think much about it either.
Taking the phone from Joey, he said with a sigh, “Let’s wish that the victim only resembled her…”

When Elise finished dealing with the surveince video and arrived at the hospital, the doctor had issued
the death certificate. Holding the thin sheet of paper between her fingers, she sat in the car and hesitated
for a long time, wondering if she should tell Austin about it. After all, he had doted on Faye so much.
Actually, now that I think about it with a calm mind, Faye died because of me. I’d say she got her just
deserts, but if I hadn’t put the mask on her face today, she would probably have been able to live a few
days longer. In that sense, I’m really sorry for what happened to her. Now that she’s dead, let’s write off
all the old scores between us.
Just as she was about to leave, an ostentatious sports car suddenly charged through the entrance
beforeing to a stop in front of the steps leading to the hospital. When the car door swung open, she
saw Keh’s familiar figure running into the building like crazy.
Could Keh have something to do with this? No, it wouldn’t be his doing. He had countless
opportunities to kill me, so he didn’t have to wait until now. Before Elise realized it, she had unfastened
her seat belt and gotten out of the car to follow the man.
From a distance, she saw Keh asking the medical staff some questions in a fluster before running all
the way to the morgue. The morgue’s door was locked. As the man couldn’t wait for someone to unlock
the door, he smashed the door open right away.
Covered with white cloth, Faye’s body was ced right opposite the door.
The instant Keh entered the morgue, he fell to his knees, looking as though he had lost his soul. For
some reason, Elise’s heart clenched and ached terribly as she watched the scene. She slowly walked up
to the man and called out to him in a soft voice. “Keh?”
The voice seemed to connect Keh’s world to reality. His dark eyes shone instantly, and his listless
body straightened up all of a sudden as if he was alive again. The instant he looked back and met Elise’s
eyes, he quickly got up, ran out of the morgue, and sped her in his arms, holding her so tightly as
though he wanted to blend her into his life.
This was the first time she was being hugged in such a rough and domineering way by someone other
than Alexander. Elise’s heart thumped wildly and was somewhat out of control. Her reason tried to
remind her to keep her distance from Keh, only to vanish without a trace after crossing her mind for
only a second.
