Chapter 375: Justice Kelvin had known that Cheyenne was bold, but he never expected her to openly challenge TWILIGHT head-on. At this moment, he truly felt that Cheyenne was incredibly beautiful, with her silver hair shining brightly in the darkness, akin to a star in the night sky. Like the countless stars, she was radiant.
After witnessing so many bloody and dark scenes, an ordinary woman would have been scared witless. But Cheyenne remained calm and stood up to speak. She truly lived up to his expectations. In the past, he was the one who couldn't recognize her worth, mistaking her for a good-for-nothing and neglecting her for so many years.
Sensing the atmosphere in the hall becoming tense and oppressive, Kelvin was afraid that Cheyenne's shining presence would attract unwanted attention. So, he stood up as well, reached out, and embraced Cheyenne's shoulder, pulling her into his arms. In silence, he declared his dominance.
His tall and imposing figure blocked many people's lecherous gazes. His eyes gazed at the person on the stage, and Kelvin's lips parted, his voice filled with magnetism. “Sorry, my girlfriend was just too worried about my illness and lost her temper for a moment." Cheyenne quickly realized that he was helping her. After regaining her composure, she explained, “It's like this, my boyfriend has a rare disease and needs fresh human blood as a catalyst. Ahem... I was just too anxious." Kelvin felt a moment of joy when she introduced him as her "boyfriend." But as he heard the second half of her statement, his handsface darkened. What kind of bizarre disease was she talking about? Couldn't she cup with a better excuse? Even he felt guilty just listening to it. Would these people believe them? To appear more convincing as a "sick" person, he deliberately suppressed his aura, becoming a gentle and weak beautiful man who relied on his wife.
So, this was the ingredient they needed! Fresh human blood? This was truly an unheard-of prescription...
Jonathan's eyes misted over, his true emotions now hidden behind his disheveled grey hair. How did Cheyenne and Mr. Foley end up here? These two idiots should have stayed out of TWILIGHT if they wanted to leave unscathed. With their interference, the suspicion might have already begun.
He was already in his sixties this year and should have retired two years ago. It was just that Cheyenne had always refused to work at the hospital.
He was worried that Eddie's gentle personality would make it difficult for him to control the group of old folks working for him, so he reluctantly served as the director for another two years. He could die, but Cheyenne couldn't.
Jonathan used his gaze to signal Cheyenne to leave quickly, but she didn't budge.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe man on the stage, his face behind the mask, grew serious. He seemed reluctant to make this deal. "Dear guests, I'm sorry... we do have living people here, right above your heads." Kelvin didn't even bother to look up, his gaze fixed on the man. They were mutually testing each other.
"What if we only want him? I'll pay ten million! I only need a little blood, it won't affect your executions.” Ten million! Just for sblood, it seemed like a guaranteed profitable deal.
Even if a healthy adult male sold all their organs, it would only be worth two or three million.
Kelvin was certainly generous.
The man in black hesitated for a moment, and a warning cfrom above. He rejected Kelvin's offer. "Sorry, sir..." "What about twenty million? I really need this blood..." Kelvin raised his offer to twenty million.
The whole room fell silent, everyone holding their breath, waiting for the judgment from the man in black. Tpassed slowly, and it was evident that the judge was tempted, but he hesitated.
Suddenly, another man in black walked out from behind the stage curtain. It was unclear what he said to the judge's ear.
After the judge listened, he rejected Kelvin's twenty million and apologized, saying that Jonathan had been reserved by someone else and couldn't be executed for now.
This was the first tsince TWILIGHT was established that a “criminal” on the execution platform could live.
As they were about to take Mr. Owen away, Cheyenne grew even more anxious, her gaze following that figure... "Kelvin, what should we do now?" She instinctively asked the man beside her.
"Wait." The situation had changed so suddenly, there must be strickery or perhaps another trap? But the people from TWILIGHT should not have known about their presence here. A realization gradually formed in Kelvin's mind.
Perhaps they had fallen into a trap from the very beginning.
From discovering the pattern to finding the Bible, and witnessing the cruel punishments at TWILIGHT, it seemed as though there was an invisible hand pushing them forward.
And it all started with that symbol.
Both Kelvin and Cheyenne had the sfeeling.
The fact that she felt like a clown infuriated herself.
Cheyenne had slightly more information than Kelvin. She knew that Datura stramonium was found in both Misty Forest and the driver Konner involved in the car accident, and it was related to the Todd family. Second, Soar Casino was likely TWILIGHT's money-making industry.
Third, Cheyenne now doubted whether Sam... knew about the business card that appeared in his Bible.
The man appeared elegant and gentle. He didn't seem like someone involved with darkness. Hopefully, he didn't know the origin of the business card.
The "execution" ended prematurely and entered the phase of free trade... Turns out, the so-called "ingredients" were organs! Among them were metal craftsmen who needed nails or bones for their perfect works of art.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThere were also painters fascinated by the philosophy of life and death, seeking the most perfect body...
Scto TWILIGHT because of illness, their organs failing or damaged, and they had to find substitutes.
Regardless of the reasons, they made a deal with TWILIGHT, and in this lifetime, they would never escape TWILIGHT'S control! Cheyenne suddenly remembered a comment she read on the website: "Never make a deal with the devil easily!" So that's what it meant.
The devil they mentioned was TWILIGHT.
Only when twilight cdid life truly begin.
e The meaning being expressed was that only when darkness descended did someone could see the true face of the world. The sunlight outside was always false. It could not reach the corners of darkness or the evil within human hearts! That's why TWILIGHT was needed, with its judges and executors walking in the darkness.
They were servants of God's loyal subjects, representing the "justice" of the Almighty in upholding the entire world.
Kelvin also observed everything coldly. He held Cheyenne's hand firmly, his lips sealed, not uttering a word.
After a while, he suddenly reachedout and embraced Cheyenne whispering in her ear with a hoarse and deep voice. "Cheyenne, justice will never be late." At that time, everything here would be overturned! X
