The Girl in the Shadows Novel Chapter 25

Loomwood Galleries Framed Pilgrim Murals by Iris Vaughn 25

Chapter 25 

For some reason, seeing Nina like this made Jessica’s heart twist with a dull ache. 

“I trust you.” 

Nina smiled slightly. “If I cut the wrong one, I’ll give you my life.” 

This was the first time Nina had called herself her big sister. 

From Jessica’s angle, she could even see the beads of sweat on Nina’s forehead. 

She gently wiped the sweat from Nina’s forehead, then closed her eyes. 

Snip! 

The wire was cut. 

The explosion they expected never came. Jessica opened her eyes, and they looked at each other. 

The next moment, they hugged each other tightly, crying their eyes out. 

Nina was terrified. She was afraid of losing her sister, afraid that she would be the cause of her death. 

Jessica, on the other hand, felt like she had just survived a disaster. She kept stroking Nina’s head, “It’s okay now.” 

At that moment, their bond as sisters became stronger than ever. 

In the end, Isabelle was arrested. 

As she was being arrested, she was still struggling frantically. 

She pointed at Nina and screamed, “It’s all your fault! 

It’s you, you bitch, you made me lose everything!” 

Nina just watched her coolly, her face expressionless. 

She softly spoke a few words. “Isabelle, you brought all of this on yourself.” 

Isabelle was taken away, and the evidence used for her bail was overturned. 

It was forged. 

She was sentenced to death. 

Before the execution could be carried out, it was discovered that Isabelle was three months pregnant.

So, her sentence was changed to a suspended death sentence, to be carried out after the child was born. 

When Isabelle found out she was pregnant, she was stunned for a long time. 

Then she collapsed to the floor, laughing and crying, murmuring, “It’s karma. This is all karma!” 

She stole someone’s heart, and now heaven was punishing her like this. 

Making her carry that old man’s child! 

In the end, Isabelle killed herself in prison. 

She was four months pregnant at the time. 

She didn’t leave a single word behind.

Sean stared at his bandaged reflection in the mirror, lost in a daze. 

He never regretted taking that bottle of acid for Nina. If it happened again, he would do the same thing. 

Because he couldn’t bear to see Nina suffer anymore. 

But Sean couldn’t accept the person he was now. He could already imagine how horrifying, how disgusting his face would be once the bandages came off. 

He couldn’t even accept it himself. 

Let alone Nina. 

Sean wanted to forever be the dashing, spirited Sean in Nina’s eyes, not this. 

Standing on the window ledge, the last thing Sean thought about was the first time he met Nina. 

He had been heartbroken, drinking himself into a stupor on a rooftop. 

And Nina had been standing on a rooftop, wanting to end her own life. 

Looking down at the view below, Sean smiled. 

So this is what it feels like to stand here? 

Sean felt like he could finally understand how Nina felt back then. 

She had been abandoned by the whole world, just like he was now. 

Nina, I’m sorry. 

I owe you too much in this life. If there’s a next life, I want to make it all up to you. I’ll make you the happiest little girl in the world. 

You’ll live a life free of worries, without any hardship.

I’ll be leaving first in this life. 

Sean leaped, and the moment his body hit the ground, pain instantly consumed his entire body. 

But he quickly lost consciousness, blood flowing endlessly from the corner of his mouth. 

Sean struggled to force a smile, not wanting to scare his girl. 

His dropped phone was still open to the last message.
