And there, in the corner, she spotted a familiar doll. Steeling herself, she feigned composure. “Is that doll part of Marley's belongings?”
As expected, Helen was drawn to her words. Athought crossed her mind, and a wicked smile crept across her face. She rose to her feet, clutching the doll.
Simultaneously, Ariana took the opportunity to gather pieces of rubble nearby and surreptitiously ground the rope in her hand, keeping a vigilant eye on Helen’s every move.
Ariana noticed Helen picking up the doll, fiddling with its arm and staring at it. Helen smiled. “You even recognize this. Yes, this one is true.”
“It's just a doll, so why go to the trouble of using a fake one to deceive him? What did Marley say before she passed away?” Ariana strained to maintain a calm voice, inadvertently quickening her rope-cutting actions.
Helen gazed at the doll fora moment and then broke into a smile. “Why? No reason at all. | won’t give Theodore anything he desires, and | won't utter a word that he wishes to hear. | want to keep him hanging like this. | relish seeing him struggling in a sea of misery with no chance of redemption!”
Hearing those words, anger surged within Ariana, yet she hesitated before severing the rope. She couldn't help but inquire, “Do you hate him?”
“Hate? No! No! | love him, I’m infatuated with him!” Helen’s face contorted into a sinister grin. “But it’s when he writhes in pain, torn within himself, longing but never obtaining, eternally filled with regret and brokenness, that Theodore becomes the most captivating, the one | love the mos’
Helen was completely off her bearings!
Ariana cursed inwardly at Helen’s madness. Since she hadn’t finished cutting the rope, she had to continue the conversation with Helen and buy some time. She Looked at Helen and continued, “Doesn't he treat you well?”
“He does,” Helen replied absentmindedly, “But in the past, he cared the most about Marley, never sparing a glance for me. Even though | saw him as my everything, his gaze was always fixed on Marley. He poured all his efforts into protecting her. Why couldn’t he just look at me? Even in these past few years, his care for me was merely an act of charity he bestowed upon me because of Marley!”
Helen’s tone abruptly turned venomous. “But Marley was just a bastard, a wretched being born out of rape. She certainly didn’t deserve to live!”
Hearing the unexpected revelation, Ariana was shocked and furious. She blurted out, “Wasn’t Marley your best friend?! How can you say such things about her!”
Helen appeared to find it amusing as she turned her head and smirked sinisterly at Ariana. “Yes, we were best friends, which is why | personally pushed her down the building to help her put an end to her fucking miserable life! She should be grateful to me even in the afterlife!”
Ariana stood frozen for a moment, her heart sinking Like a stone as she unraveled the truth: Marley's tragic fate had been sealed by the hands of Helen!
Rage engulfed her, and her breath came in furious gasps.
For years, Theodore carried the burden of guilt over Marley’s demise unaware that the malevolent deceiver was always at his side, reaping undeserved rewards.
In the heat of the moment, Helen’s patience wore thin, and she discarded the facade of civility. Tossing aside the doll, she brandished a gleaming knife, advancing menacingly towards Ariana, poised to strike.
Suddenly, the distant sound of a car’s engine echoed, interrupting her sinister approach.
Confusion clouded her eyes with fear as she peered out the window.
How could a car find its way to this desolate place?
Her heart pounding, Helen cautiously Looked outside, only to recognize Theodore’s familiar vehicle parked below!
Frustration gnawed at her, furious that Theodore had located Ariana so effortlessly. “How did Theodore find this place? You must have a tracker on you!”
