Chapter 295
Although Katherine already had a few unproven spections in her mind before she got there, she was
sure her suspicions were correct when she saw Eddie trying to kill Mike.
Nevertheless, Eddie only smiled in a sinister manner without even bothering to deny it. "You know
what? You''re right, but what''re you going to do about it? The Frasers deserve to go to hell, anyway! I''m
just doing what should be done in the name of God!"
"Really?" She snorted with a cold grunt. "Mike might have done something terrible in the past, but his
family is innocent. How dare you go around taking innocent lives in the name of God!" A few seconds
later, she pressed on and questioned Eddie, demanding, "What did Mike do to make you hate him so
much?"
Although Katherine was able to predict Mike''s irredeemable sins, she couldn''t tell what really happened
in the past. However, she was curious to know why Eddie hated Mike to the bones, wondering what
kind of vendetta could motivate Eddie so much that he would hurt the Frasers.
Eddie gritted his teeth, speaking hatefully like a beast grinding its teeth. "What did he do? Do you want
to know? Fine, let me tell you. He killed more than twenty innocent lives back then for the sake of the
Fraser Family''s interest. Can you imagine that? I bet you don''t even know that at all, do you?"
As soon as Katherine and Joaquin heard about Mike''s crime, they exchanged gazes shortly before
Joaquin frowned and replied, "I''m not going to lie. This is the first time I''ve heard about this matter, but
we''re talking about more than twenty lives here. It wasn''t something trivial, so how did whoever was
behind this manage to keep this covered for so many years?"
"What was so difficult about that? The Fraser Family had a part in many intricate connections all over
Kynd, so what do you think those twenty lives were to Mike? To him, their lives didn''t matter, and
pulling a few strings was all he needed to do to get away with it. Furthermore, since the water in
Kynd was always polluted, Mike had nothing to worry about when he covered his tracks, not to
mention the Fraser Family''s power and influence back in the day!"
Katherine squinted and shifted her gaze to Mike, only to see him keeping his head down with a pale
face. At the same time, his forehead was covered in sweat, indicating that he was likely guilty of what
he did back then. A few momentster, he smiled bitterly and murmured, "Y-Yeah, it was all my fault. I
deserve what''sing to me…"
"Haha. What do you think is going to change by admitting your mistakes now?" Eddie fixed his
bloodshot eyes on Mike as if he was trying to drill a hole through his chest. "Do you think those people
who lost their innocent lives back then could juste back to life because of that?"
At that moment, Joaquin noticed something worth asking after hearing Eddie''s words. "So, what does
that have to do with you?" he asked coldly.
As soon as Eddie heard that, his forehead was covered in veins so obvious that he looked like an
angry beast. "My little boy was among the innocent people who lost their lives, and you asked what that
has to do with me?! You have no idea how much I wish I could just skin this man alive and drink his
blood! I pray for him to go to hell, where he will rot for eternity!"
It was then that Katherine finally understood why Eddie had gone into hiding over the years and why he
attacked Mike at the Fraser Residence. "So, the reason you''ve been trying to hurt the Frasers is that
you realized they were responsible for that matter, right?" she asked.
Eddie smashed the ss onto the ground without denying Katherine''s usation. "You''re right! It was
me who hired someone to put the man-faced curse on the Frasers so that they suffered from its effects.
In fact, the five senior officials, who also suffered from this incident, were the ones that protected Mike
despite the crime hemitted back then. They covered his tracks for him, which was the reason that
made me take the opportunity to put the curse on them when they gathered together. Haha! It was a
sight for sore eyes to see them suffering from a fate worse than death, but guess what? Karma didn''t
do me justice when some spoilsport decided to step in and rescue those idiots. Besides, whoever was
behind that even invented an antidote and thwarted my n!"
After hearing Eddie''s story, Katherine blinked in silence, pondering what else to find out. Just when she
was about to ask her questions a few momentster, she suddenly felt dizzy and fatigued. As strange
as the feeling was, it was also apanied by unbearable pain like all her organs were intertwined
together. In that instant, she knitted her eyebrows, sensing something wrong just when she was about
to run a quick diagnosis on herself, only to realize she couldn''t even lift her hand. The moment she
tried to move, she immediately copsed onto the ground,pletely sumbing to the pain that
made her feel as if all her organs were out of ce.
When Joaquin saw that, he quickly crouched down to get a hold of her. "Are you alright, Katherine?
What''s wrong?" he asked with a hoarse voice, his face turning pale.
She was covered in a cold sweat, clenching her jaw in pain while shaking her head. "I don''t know…"
Although she didn''t run a diagnosis on herself, she could tell from the strange feeling she had that she
must have been poisoned, yet the poison was one she had never seen before. The next second, she
gritted her teeth and red at Eddie, questioning, "W-What did you do to me?"
Joaquin radiated a chilly aura when he heard that from Katherine, whereupon he immediately shifted
his attention to Eddie. At the same time, Eddie stood up unconcernedly with a sinister smile on his
face. "You''re smart indeed. It took you sooner than I thought to figure out it was me."
Joaquin''s eyes were filled with rage, his face written with anger like a demon that was crawling out of
hell to wreak havoc. "What! Have! You! Done?!" He gritted his teeth and demanded an answer from
Eddie as if he was about to kill the man standing before him anytime.
However, Eddie only smiled in an unconcerned manner. "Oh, you don''t scare me, Mr. Levisay. I''m the
one who decides whether the woman you love is going to live or die now, so you''d better watch your
tone when you''re talking to me." At the same time, the man produced a little vial from his pocket and
shed it right in front of his eyes. "The poison in Miss Cornell''s body is mytest creation, extracted
from the man-faced curse and refined to be better. It''s about ten thousand times more lethal than the
man-faced curse I spread out earlier. Therefore, the only way for her to get rid of the poison and
survive is to take my antidote pill, or she is going to suffer from excruciating pain as her organs start to
fail one by one from the poison attack until she dies a painful death. So, what do you think, Mr.
Levisay?"

After hearing Eddie''s sinister intention, Joaquin was taken over by his anger, his eyes turning red like a
beast. In the meantime, Katherine was overwhelmed by agony as she began to shiver uncontrobly
from head to toe. However, she clung to her will and restrained herself from crying in pain, staring at
Eddie hatefully. Jeez! I can''t believe I fell for an evil scheme of someone like this man! He must have
intentionally told us the story to buy himself some time for his poison to kick in.
In the meantime, Mike was also stunned by what he saw. "Eddie Scott-Tutton!" The man added while
panting, "I-I don''t care how much you hate me, but why are you hurting these innocent people? Since
I''m the one you want, just direct your anger at me!"
"Shut your mouth up! You, of all the people here, do not get to say that!" Eddie snarled at Mike like a
madman. "When you took my son''s life back then, did you ever spare a thought for him? He was also
innocent!"
