Trading One Life for Two
Yet, Jewel ignored Phantom’s scream completely. She grabbed her by the hair and slammed her head
onto the table.
With a loud bang, Phantom’s mind momentarily went blank. She swayed unsteadily, and if Jewel hadn’t
been holding onto her, she would have fallen.
As Jewel looked at her, she sneered. “You’re quite skilled at throwing darts, aren’t you?” After she said
that, she swiftly raised her hand and brought the dagger down, piercing Phantom’s right arm.
“Ah! Mmm…”
Jewel was swift. Not giving Phantom a chance to scream, she stuffed a small doll into her wide-open
mouth and kicked her skillfully.
With that, Phantom crashed heavily onto the ground, clutching her bloodied arm. She was also glaring
at Jewel with anger.
Jewel walked over and grabbed her by the collar with a cruel smile on her lips. “You didn’t expect me to
come back alive to seek revenge, did you? Do you know how it feels to call out in vain in a raging fire?
Do you know what it feels like when you can’t utter a word because of a smoke-filled throat? I always
thought we were pitiful people who should support each other, but it turns out that we harm each other.
Did you think only you guys knew how to kill and commit arson?”
Phantom shook her head and quickly took the doll out of her mouth as she explained, “It wasn’t me! It
was Blood Rose’s idea. She never liked you. Every time you were called by Joseph for a talk, she
suspected that you were seducing him. And several times after you came out of Joseph’s room, she
got punished. She thought you were secretly plotting against her. She set the fire. It had nothing to do
with me.”
Hearing that, Jewel sneered. “Don’t make yourself look so innocent. You were the one who closed the
door to that room!”
“I had no choice. We had to listen to her on that mission. You know that. She ordered me to do it, and I
couldn’t disobey,” Phantom explained anxiously.
“Oh, you had no choice?” Jewel laughed. “So, it’s only natural for me to seek revenge on you now,
right?” As she spoke, she raised the dagger and stabbed Phantom’s other arm.
“Mmm…”
Immediately, she used the doll to gag Phantom’s mouth again while a malicious smile appeared on her
lips. “Don’t scream. If you alert the police, how would you explain Damian’s murder?”
Phantom’s forehead creased in pain. Both of her arms were numb from the agony. Although such
injuries were common for her in the past, she hadn’t been on a mission or suffered such wounds for
several years. Today, Jewel stabbed her twice in a row, so the pain was unbearable.
Jewel looked at her but didn’t give her any respite. “Where’s the antidote for your dart?”
Phantom’s forehead was covered in fine beads of sweat. Yet, she looked at Jewel with a smirk and
struggled to raise her hand to remove the doll from her mouth. “So, it was Alex who got hit by my dart,
huh? Haha… Haha…”
Jewel remained expressionless. “As long as you give me the antidote, I can spare your life.”
“Even if you kill me, you won’t get the antidote from me.” Phantom’s eyes glinted with provocation, and
her voice was filled with ruthless determination.
As Jewel squinted her eyes, a storm gathered in her gaze, but her face remained impassive, and only
her voice was chillingly intimidating. “Fine then, let’s drag this out. I want to see how much blood you
can afford to shed.”
Even with her threat, Phantom laughed maniacally. “If I die, Alex won’t survive either. By that time,
Double Dragon Court won’t let you off the hook. I’m trading one life for two. It’s worth it.”
At her words, Jewel lowered her gaze and chuckled lightly, her smile filled with contempt. “Do you think
your poison is unbeatable? Oh, I forgot to tell you. I’ve found the genius doctor, Doctor Bailey. It’s only
a matter of time before she finds the antidote for the poison on your dart. Since you’re so eager to die,
I’ll grant you that wish.” As she spoke, she held the dagger and gradually brought it closer to Phantom’s
face. “I was burned on my face by the fire, right… here.”
Her dagger pressed against Phantom’s left cheek. The icy touch of the metallic coldness made
Phantom instinctively want to dodge. She craned her neck as far away from Jewel as possible, wishing
that she could rotate it 360 degrees.
However, Jewel didn’t give her that chance. Wherever she tried to hide, the dagger followed.
