    Chapter 1353


    ‘Five million dors?’ Walter’s expression twisted in anger. He raised his hand and pped Hylda


    across the face, sending her sprawling to the ground. The force of the blow left her with a swollen


    bump on her forehead.


    Her vision became blurry. The next thing she knew, Walter was yanking her up off the floor by her hair.


    “You bastard! Is there a shred of truth in anything you say? You even deceived Albert. How am I


    supposed to believe you?”


    Hylda cried out in agony. She gripped Walter’s hand and begged, “Walter, Walter! I swear I had nothing


    to do with it. We can go to the bank and check the withdrawal records. I had no idea your money was


    stolen. I- Ah-“


    Before she couldplete her sentence, Walter pped her once more. “You despicable bitch. You’ve


    manipted everyone, and now you expect me to believe you?”


    Hylda clutched her throbbing face and sobbed, “No. I—”


    Walter had no patience for her protests. He tossed her phone back to her and, with a cold expression,


    he ordered,” Transfer the five million to my ount right now. Don’t you dare try anything else, or I


    swear I’ll end you!”


    He then thrust the knife into the couch, making Hylda tremble in fear.


    Hylda did not have five million dors. Even if she did, transferring such an amount would leave her


    with nothing.


    Moreover, Walter knew too many of her secrets and could easily use them as leverage whenever he


    needed more money. ‘Over the years, he had continuously treated me like an ATM. I would never find


    peace unless he is dealt with.’

    Determined, Hylda began to think calmly. “What’s your bank ount number? I’ll transfer the money to


    you,” she sobbed.


    Walter let his guard down when he saw that she had given up resisting. He ced the knife on the


    coffee table and pulled out his wallet.


    ‘Now’s my chance,’ thought Hylda. As Walter was looking for his card, she suddenly grabbed the knife


    and stabbed him.


    Walter tried to snatch the knife away, but it was already toote.


    Hylda cut through his hand with immense strength, piercing the de directly into his chest.


    Walter’s face turned ashen, and his eyes were filled with disbelief. “You wretched-” He tried to reach for


    Hylda’s neck, but she withdrew the knife and stabbed him again. This time, it went straight into his


    heart.


    Walter convulsed and copsed on the floor. His eyes stared nkly ahead.


    Although Hylda’s hand was trembling, her mind was surprisingly clear. She pulled out the weapon,


    wrapped it in a stic bag, and began to clean the scene.


    At the same time, a pair of unflinching eyes had observed everything.


    Meanwhile, Felicity was feeding her cat in apartment 902 of Clouditude International. The kitten had


    grown a lot in the two weeks since she brought it home. It had noticeably increased in size and


    alternated between ying, eating, and napping. It was living the life.


    “That stinky cucumber has beening home reallyte these days, huh, Sewyn?” Felicity gently


    stroked the kitten’s head and said softly. It was as if she was talking to herself rather than the cat.


    After returning from Onsen Vi, Vermont had be increasingly distant. He no longer initiated video


    game sessions with Felicity or yfully requested that she replicate dishes from certain online


    influencers. Felicity hardly ever saw him at night, and she only crossed paths with him once when he


    got up to drink some water in the morning. They exchanged a brief greeting, and Vermont returned to


    his room.


    She did not run into him anymore after that. At times, Felicity would notice that his shoes were still on


    the shoe rack and assume that he was still asleep.
