Chapter 770

Evelyn Ross's hand had just touched the girl's shoulder.

The girl flinched violently.

She slipped away like an eel.

Evelyn immediately drew her gun.

The muzzle aimed at the girl's back.

"Stop."

Her voice was icy.

Chloe Raymond's steps halted.

She slowly turned around.

A smile was on her face.

"You wouldn't dare shoot."

Before the words fully left her mouth.

She turned and ran.

Evelyn tightened her grip on the gun.

It was true she had never fired a gun before.

But she had to make a choice now.

Aim.

Pull the trigger.

The bullet grazed the hem of Chloe's clothes.

It missed.

Chloe's figure flashed.

She disappeared around the alley corner.

Evelyn gritted her teeth and gave chase.

But she saw Chloe walking backwards, hands raised.

She was retreating step by step.

Sebastian Truman emerged from the other end of the alley.

A gun was in his hand.

Chloe stared at him.

"You wouldn't dare shoot either."

She suddenly turned.

She tried to break through from the side.

Alexander Vance stood there.

Motionless.

His gaze was frigid.

Chloe froze.

She could sense it.

This man was different.

He carried the scent of blood.

He had truly killed before.

She didn't dare move again.

Evelyn stepped forward.

She twisted Chloe's arms behind her back.

She bound them tightly with rope.

"Who sent you?"

Chloe laughed.

"I'm only targeting the Truman family."

She looked at Sebastian.

"Remember the Raymond family?"

Sebastian's eyes sharpened.

"You're from the Raymond family?"

"Chloe Raymond."

Chloe lifted her chin.

"The Raymond family's illegitimate daughter on the outside."

Sebastian was silent for a moment.

"The Raymond family's affairs have nothing to do with you."

"How can they not?"

Chloe's voice turned shrill.

"My father is still in your hands."

"I want revenge."

Evelyn looked at Sebastian.

Sebastian nodded.

"There's a generational feud between the two families."

Evelyn asked no more.

She stared at Chloe.

"What was your plan?"

"Plan?"

Chloe sneered.

"The Truman family is an iron fortress."

"I couldn't even get through the door."

"I could only start with Mia Truman."

"A woman's revenge."

"Uses a woman's methods."

Sebastian frowned.

"The Raymond family never acknowledged you."

"Why risk your life for them?"

Chloe's eyes dimmed.

"You don't understand."

"An illegitimate child."

"The thing we want most is recognition."

"Even if we trade our life for it."

"It's worth it."

Sebastian said nothing more.

He had seen too many people die for their beliefs.

He could understand.

"Mia Truman's hypnosis."

"Was that you?"

"Yes."

Chloe admitted it readily.

"The Raymond family left me money."

"I hired the best hypnotist."

"All the Truman family members were too hard to approach."

"Only Mia Truman."

"Innocent."

"An easy target."

"I chose Liam Cooper."

"Waited for three years."

"A pity."

"I only got the chance to kill Mia Truman."

"The one I wanted to kill."

"Was you."

She stared at Sebastian.

Her gaze was venomous.

"Kill you."

"Then the Truman family head would truly suffer."

Evelyn suddenly spoke.

"You wanted to kill Sebastian."

"Why tamper with Mia Truman's car?"

"How did you know."

"That the car would crash into Sebastian?"

Chloe's expression stiffened.
