Chapter 1020


    Lucas'' pupils shrank. ''So he''s finallye back to life,'' he thought while looking at Jeremy. ''But


    what does he mean that Rosie doesn''t need to turn herself in?''


    Jeremy lifted his head slightly to look at Rosie. His eyes were hollow, yet the intensity in his eyes


    was enough to kill with just one look. He slowly walked toward Rosie, who was sitting on the floor.


    Once there, he bent down and lifted her by the cor.


    "I''m going to make her pay with her life!" he roared before dragging her to the end of the corridor.


    Anya''s heart nearly jumped out when she saw how terrifying Jeremy was. However, her fright was


    quickly overpowered by relief once she realized she was safe. In fact, Jeremy getting rid of Rosie


    would work out in her favor since that meant she would not have to worry about Rosie testifying


    against her in the future.


    Lucas watched as Jeremy, who was not obviously in his right mind, dragged Rosie away. As much


    as he understood how Jeremy felt at that moment, he could not let himmit a crime. Besides,


    Corinne would not have wanted Jeremy to kill a person because of her either. Thus, Lucas started


    chasing after them.


    ''No, Jeremy. Don''t act rashly. Let thew decide what to do with her!'' he cried internally. He hoped


    to reach them in time to stop Jeremy from killing Rosie.


    Anya smiled in relief when she saw Lucas and Jeremy both gone. She was already in a good mood


    after getting rid of Corinne, but her mood only improved once she knew Rosie would be out of the


    picture, too. After all, she would not have to worry about Rosie taking revenge on her in the future.


    ''Now that they''re all gone, I can finally check on Corinne! I have to admit that b*tch is prettier than


    me even without makeup on, but getting run over by a car should''ve damaged her face, right?'' she


    thought.


    She was about to push the door open when it swung open from the inside. A couple of nurses were


    wheeling a dead body covered in white cloth out of the surgery room.

    One of them frowned when she saw Anya blocking their path. "Excuse me, miss, but could you


    move out of the way? We need to quickly take this deceased patient to the morgue."


    At the words ''deceased patient'', Anya first thought of Corinne. She nced curiously at the dead


    body lying on the gurney, but the white cloth covering it made it impossible for her to tell who it was.


    "Excuse me, nurse, but is the deceased patient you''re wheeling to the morgue called Corinne


    Carew?" she asked.


    The nurse nodded. "Yes. Are you her family?"


    Anya shook her head. "No, but I knew her. Could I have a moment with her? You know, to say my


    goodbyes."


    "Of course. But we can''t let her stay in the surgery room any longer since another patient will need


    to use it soon. Oh, why don''t youe with us to the morgue? If you find that ce too scary, you


    can always say yourst goodbye to her during the funeral."


    Anya shook her head rapidly. "No, the morgue is fine. She was an important person to me, so I want


    to spend what little time we have together before she''s put to the ground."


    The nurse was moved by Anya''s pure-heartedness and bravery. ''They must''ve been really good


    friends,'' she thought.


    "Very well, then. Please follow us this way," she said.


    Thus, the nurses wheeled Corinne''s dead body to the morgue with Anya following from behind.


    It was freezing in the morgue. The air-conditioners were in full st to keep the dead bodies from


    rotting.
