Chapter 303: Confrontation
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Lauren stared at Ruby for a few moments before she spoke. “Ruby? Maybe I should call you... Auntie Greta?”
This was the second time Lauren had seen such a surprised expression on Ruby’s face.
Greta did not expect Lauren to know that she was not Ruby but Greta.
How did a little girl like her know about all this?
However, this fake Ruby did not speak. She merely looked at Lauren silently.
Lauren did not get angry. She first walked over to Ruby, undid her handcuffs, and set her free.
Lauren knew that Greta had no intention of hurting her. After all, she always took good care of Lauren.
Greta was just doing this for her own reasons.
“Auntie Greta, you don’t need to be surprised. It may be your misfortune to run into me. I already know all your plans.”
Lauren took out the suicide note from Ruby’s room today.
“The truth is...you planned everything, from the day you approached me at the beginning till the day you wrote this suicide note. Don’t you think you’ve become the kind of person you used to hate the most?”
Greta did not want to hide anymore when she heard what Lauren said.
Although she was in Ruby’s body, Greta’s personality completely took over. Even her tone of voice was Greta’s. Lauren felt that Greta was a very good actress.
Although her hands were untied, she did not stand up. Instead, she sat on a chair with a graceful posture. She crossed one leg on top of the other in a casual yet elegant manner.
This posture would look elegant and charming if a mature woman performed this. However, there was a sense of strangeness to it when it was performed by Ruby.
“That’s right. What you said just now was almost correct. I didn’t expect that you would be so intelligent.”
Lauren did not say anything. She continued to wait for Greta to continue.
“However, it’s wrong to say that I approached you from the beginning. You are the one who approached me first. I didn’t want to use you at first. However, I realized that your courageous and helpful character was very helpful to me. That’s why I took advantage of you slightly.”
Lauren stood rooted to the ground. In that instant, she felt as if she had been cheated by a scumbag. She felt a little sad.
Lauren could not hear any trace of the elegant pianist from earlier in Greta’s current words.
“So, now that my plan has been seen through by you, what are you going to do now?”
Lauren looked up at Ruby. Her eyes were no longer as innocent and friendly as when she first met Ruby. Instead, her eyes were ice-cold.
“I’m going to extract you from Ruby’s body now! I can’t let you continue to harm more people!”
Lauren’s movements were so swift that no one could see her movements clearly.
She immediately took out two pieces of talisman paper from her pocket dimension.
These two pieces of talisman paper were specially cultivated by her spiritual consciousness last night. Their attack power was much stronger than the previous ones, but it also consumed a lot of her energy.
Lauren threw one of the talisman papers into the air, then took out a sword and pointed it at the talisman paper. When the talisman paper fell, it was pierced by the sharp sword.
In an instant, Greta felt a force resisting her.
To be more precise, this force was the power of Ruby’s soul.
Lauren’s talisman paper shattered the stability of Greta’s ghost in Ruby’s body. At the same time, Ruby’s own soul was awakened.
In Ruby’s body, the two souls were colliding with each other.
During this period of time, Ruby’s soul had been suppressed by Greta.
At this moment, Lauren was trying to extract Greta’s soul. However, Greta’s willpower was too strong and was on par with Lauren’s strength. Hence, the two souls were pulling at each other.
Although Ruby, who was sitting on the chair, had always been the same person, from the changes in her expression, it was still possible to tell that sometimes it was the real Ruby and sometimes it was the fake Ruby.
Lauren looked at the situation with a frown. This soul fight would cause great harm to Ruby’s physical body.
Therefore, Lauren immediately took out a second talisman.
This talisman was a little more detailed than the previous one.. Greta’s birth date and chart were written on it.
