Briar sneered. "Oh, I forgot. You''re blind now, and I''m wearing a mask. You don''t know who I am."


    Renee clenched her fists, her lips tightly pursed. She knew she had guessed right, and she had no


    choice but to face her, no matter how afraid she was to do it.

    "You remember?” Briar saw Renee’s expression, and her gaze slowly turned fierce and hateful. "You


    pushed me down the cliff, and I was crushed. I was in so much pain that I wanted to die, but I managed


    to crawl out of that hell because I told myself that I shouldn''t be defeated that easily. No matter what, I


    had to take you down with me. Well, it certainly looks like I made the right choice." Briar sized Renee


    up, smirking when she saw Renee''s empty and scarred eye sockets. "If I didn''t hold on back then, I


    wouldn''t have been able to see you turn this ugly and miserable! Not so smug now, are we?" "Ms.


    Desrosiers, watch your tongue." Jovan shot Briar a cold nce and warned her. "I didn''t bring you here


    to hurt her." "It''s okay." Renee took a deep breath, her expression calm. "I did mistreat her, so it''s okay


    if she hates me. But I want to say that I didn''t push you off that cliff on purpose-it was an ident


    because I was trying to protect myself." She could still remember that scene vividly. Briar had


    aggressively forced Renee to the edge of the cliff, and if Renee hadn''t fought back, she would have


    fallen off it. Even if she could reverse time, Renee would still make the same choice because she


    couldn''t bear to leave behind all the people she loved.


    "See-you admitted you pushed me down the cliff! You admitted that you''re a murderer!"


    Briar fiercely used Renee.


    Jovan stood in front of Renee protectively and snapped at Briar, "You''re the one who provoked her, so


    you''ve got no right to me her. She did it in selfdefense because you were trying to kill her; I don''t


    think she''s done anything wrong." "Hmph! Yeah, it might have been self-defense... but why didn''t she


    come and save me after she pushed me down the cliff? Why didn''t she get help for me? She just let me


    die, so how can you say she''s not wicked?" Briar had hated Renee before this, but her hatred for her


    had intensified while she was recovering from falling off the cliff. Even if she had poisoned Renee and


    gotten her revenge, she still could not let go of her hatred.


    "I don''t know if she''s wicked or not, but you certainly are," Jovan scoffed.


    "Well, I don''t deny that. If I wasn''t, I wouldn''t be working with you," Briar calmed herself down and said


    meaningfully.


    Renee immediately tensed. "What do you mean? What are you both nning?" "Calm down. Jovan


    and I are just taking what we need," Briar said smugly.


    Jovan looked at Renee and sighed. "Stop overthinking. I''ll never harm you no matter what I do."


    "Jovan, don''t get close to Briar..." Renee clenched her fists and said sharply, "You might seem wicked


    sometimes, but you can still change. She, however, is a thoroughly vicious person."
