He knew that she was still alive. Did her father feel ashamed about what he did to her because he
wanted to protect his brother, Chuck? Was that why he grabbed the boiling hot tea?
“Then what about my mom? Does she know?” Esme asked as she stared at Peter.
“Do you think your mother would be crazy like that if she knew you’re still alive?” Peter said icily.
“You monster!” Esme pounced at him and choked him by the neck. “You let my dad know, but why did
you hide it from my mom? How can you just stand by and watch as she gets worse and worse?!”
“If she knew, how can she perfect the act with Conrad’s people?” Peter held her hand and with a simple
press, Esme let go of him because of the pain.
“The crazier she gets, the better.” Peter stood up before giving a bitter smile. “But from the looks of it,
there’s no point in this anymore.”
“What do you mean?” Esme asked.
“Nothing much. However, as you couldn’t keep your temper and kept on provoking Fia, she is now
already sure that you are Esme Manning! Do you think Conrad will let things develop without
interfering?”
“No! He’s seen me! He didn’t believe that I am Esme! He even said that Fia’s crazy and that nothing
she said is trustworthy!” Esme said, trying her best to convince herself.
Peter suddenly felt pity for her. He grabbed Esme by her long hair and dragged her to the front of the
sink.
“Do you know how I did it to Britney without raising her suspicion? Do you know what I injected her
with? That drug would maintain the freshness of the corpse in the beginning. However, in five days’
time, the body would quickly dpose and be bloated. It would look like a body that had been
submerged in water for a very long time. Identification would almost be impossible.”
Esme listened to the horror story that Peter was telling her, and she couldn’t help but let a terrible
picture form in her mind.
Her body slowly trembled, as fear began to overtake her whole body.
Peter began to whisper into her ears as if he was intoxicated. “I spent a lot of effort to take her corpse
back to the country and exchange it with you. But you? You’re so ungrateful! You’ve betrayed me!
What’s the point of letting you live?!”
“No…” Esme could sense Peter’s murderous intent and held his hand with her trembling hands.
Peter looked at the face in the mirror and remembered little Britney who had always followed him since
they were children.
If Sally knew that he had killed Britney, she would never forgive him!
Perhaps it was better for him to end everything like this! To die together with this damnable. Esme
Manning!
“No…” Esme could feel her breathing get shallower as she tried even harder to grab the hand choking
her, but it wasn’t helping.
As she choked, she let down one of her hands and put it on her belly.
“…Pregnant. I’m… pregnant.”
Peter was stunned and regained hisposure. “What did you say?”
When he saw how Esme was almost out of breath from being choked, he quickly let go of her hand.
“What did you say?!”
Esme fell on the floor buttocks first as she coughed. She was worried that Peter would go crazy again.
She coughed and said, “I… Cough! Have your child… Cough!”
“You’re lying!”
“I… Cough! I’m not,” Esme said pitifully as she grabbed Peter’s leg. “You can take me to the hospital
for a checkup.”

Peter stared at her with an icy face. Once he was sure she wasn’t lying, he pulled her up.
He took her to hisboratory and put her down on the examination couch. He confirmed what was
inside her womb very quickly thanks to his tools.
“I didn’t lie, right?” Esme sat up, shuddering. She did her best to do it carefully, trying her best not to
enrage him.
Peter first stared at her and then at her belly before asking gloomily, “Why are you only telling me now?
It has been two months!”
Esme’s heart skipped a beat and quickly said, “You misunderstood me. I wasn’t trying to hide it from
you or do anything behind your back! I only found out the day before yesterday when I wasn’t feeling
well. I haven’t been able to tell you about it because Conrad asked me to go to his ce directly after
that. And then, I got sent to the police station..
