    Chapter 661 Chat on the Rooftop


    At night, Elspeth showed up alone, as promised, outside the Alphascape Group


    building. It was already after work hours, so there were hardly any people inside. As


    she entered, the only person present seemed to be the security officer at the


    entrance.


    The security guard, seeing her alone, curiously asked, “Miss, everyone in this building


    has already gone home from work. There are hardly any people inside now. Who are


    you here to see?”


    With a smile, she replied, “I know. I’m here to see someone.”


    Puzzled by her ambiguous answer, the security guard scratched his head in


    confusion. “Weird, but miss, you should leave quickly after you’re done. It’s not safe to


    be alone at night, especially for a young girl like you.”


    Of course, she could protect herself, but since his concern was well-intentioned, she


    didn’t say much to him. She just smiled at him and walked inside.


    Strangely enough, the ce where Yena had asked her to meet this time was not the


    office but the rooftop of thepany building.


    Once inside the elevator, Elspeth pressed the button for the top floor. As the elevator


    ascended, she pondered Yena’s intentions in asking her over. When the elevator


    doors opened, the strong wind on the rooftop gradually brought her back to full


    alertness.


    The rooftop had been designed in a style resembling a small vi. At this moment,


    Yena was sitting at a table with two sses of wine ced in front of her.


    Upon seeing Elspeth approaching, she surprisingly showed a friendly attitude. “Wow,


    you’re here. You’re quite punctual.”


    Elspeth sat down opposite her with an expressionless face, not touching the wine in


    front of her, and directly asked, “So, why did you ask me toe here today?”


    When Yena saw that Elspeth didn’t drink the wine, she didn’t force her either. She


    picked up the ss in front of her and took a sip.


    “I have my reasons for asking you here today, of course, but don’t worry. I’m not here


    to discuss work with you. I just wanted to have a heart-to-heart conversation.”


    Elspeth found her words ironic. “You don’t have to beat around the bush. Just say


    what you want to say.”


    Judging from Yena’s slightly flushed face, she appeared to have already consumed


    several drinks. “I said that I asked you toe here today simply to have a drink and


    chat with you. Why don’t you believe me?”


    “You put something in the wine, right?”


    At her suspicion, Yena suddenly blew a fuse. She directly picked up the ss of wine


    in front of Elspeth and finished it in one gulp. “Why would I put something in your


    drink?”


    After finishing her drink, she turned the ss upside down and smashed it on the


    ground after she confirmed that not a drop was left.


    Crack! The shattering sound made Elspeth instantly alert.


    “If you have nothing special to discuss with me, then I’ll leave now.” She had no


    interest in chatting about life with Yena.


    However, Yena was persistent. “Why don’t you want to chat with me? Didn’t you


    promise me?”


    “What did I promise you?” Elspeth turned around, looking puzzled.


    “You promised toe and chat with me.”


    Elspeth thought she might have had too much to drink, having no interest in her


    nonsense.


    Just as she was about to stand up and leave, Yena’s voice came from behind her. “If


    you take one step away from here today, I will immediately release that mutant virus.”


    At once, Elspeth turned around with an icy gaze. “What do you want from me?” Property ? of N?velDrama.Org.


    “I’ve said it many times already. Just chat with me.”


    Elspeth had no choice but to reluctantly sit back down. “Fine. Speak.”


    A smile tugged on Yena’s lips, and her eyes shone with an unfathomable light. “Do


    you know what I’ve been through all these years?”


    Elspeth naturally had no idea because, in her memory, Yena had died a long time ago.


    At this moment, Yena picked up the nearby wine ss and poured herself another


    drink. “Right. It’s pointless for me to ask you this question. Let me tell you then. Three


    years ago, when I was lying in the hospital bed in a vegetative state, Arthur, the man


    who imed to love me forever, bribed a nurse to remove my oxygen tank.”


    As Elspeth listened to these words, she remained silent.


    “You know what? At that time, I knew nothing. But the reason his n failed was


    because the nurse he bribed happened to be one of my rtives.” Yena spoke, her


    face showing a grateful relief.


    “That nurse would never do anything to harm me, so she secretly saved me behind


    Arthur’s back. Later, when he returned to the country, she diligently took care of me.


    And I miraculously woke up. Don’t you think God was helping me? When I woke up,


    she told me everything about what had happened. I couldn’t believe that Arthur would


    harm me. So, I pondered and figured out that it must have been your doing. He must


    have tried to seek revenge on me on your behalf. Since then, I’ve tried every means


    possible. First, I changed my face and assumed a new identity, as the name Emma


    Walker was already tarnished. Only by changing my name could I do the things I


    wanted to do freely. You can’t even imagine what I’ve done to elevate myself.”


    Those memories were like needles piercing deeply into her heart, and she couldn’t


    even speak of the nauseating things that had gued her sleep countless times.


    “The savior Arthur met back then when he was a child was you. I took over your


    identity, and I’ve done so many terrible things to you. So, you hold a grudge against


    me and devised this n to get back at me.”


    At this moment, Elspeth calmly said, “I don’t know anything about what you just said.”


    “Can’t you stop pretending to be innocent and harmless all the time? Do you know


    that you’re really annoying like this?” When Yena saw Elspeth’s calm expression,


    anger rose inside her for some reason. “It was you who intervened in my rtionship


    with Callum and made me end up like this. How dare you act all holy and noble?”


    Her emotions had be somewhat unstable, and Elspeth was worried that she


    might do something extreme, so she remained vignt. She then asked, “So? Have all


    these actions you’ve taken to seek revenge on me given you the oue you


    wanted?”


    Yenaughed loudly at these words. “You think too highly of yourself, Elspeth. Do you


    actually believe that I came back this time just to take Callum away from you? I’m not


    that obsessed with love.”


    “What do you want then?”


    As Yena met Elspeth’s eyes, she said, word by word, “I want to destroy you, Callum,


    and everyone you care about.”
