Chapter 1435 Murderer

Name:The Substitute Bride Author:Mi Lu
Felix took a deep breath to calm himself down. He willed himself to focus on the task at hand.

He poured the bag of drugs in the glass. He waited for the powder to dissolve in the water so that it wouldn't look any different.

He looked back the living room for one last time and there Lillian was sitting in silence. He felt sorry for her as she had no idea that she would be dead soon.

'Sorry. I hope you don't get mad at me. I don't have a choice. Someone has to do it. Let's just consider this as a testament of your love to me. The ultimate sacrifice, '

he thought to himself.

He gazed at the glass in his quivering hand. He knew that there was no going back once he did it.

Suddenly, Lillian called, "Honey, is everything okay over there?"

He told her that he was getting her water and it was taking an unusually long time. She couldn't help but worry. Did he have trouble finding where everything was because it was dark? She was so anxious. She would only feel better if he was by her side again.

"Don't worry. I'm going back now!" he answered from the kitchen.

He calmed himself down and acted like he normally would as he took the glass and walked back to the living room.

When he came back to the living room, he placed the glass on the table lightly. She threw herself into his arms and whined, "What took you so long? I was waiting for you!"

He covered her mouth with his rather passionately.

They separated a few minutes later. They were both breathless after.

He had already made up his mind

thump. She had lost consciousness.

She couldn't believe what was happening till the moment she fell. She had no time to feel anything else. The last thing she felt was regret.

When Lillian fell, Felix placed a finger under her nose—there was no air. He had to confirm if she was truly gone. He had to confirm if the only person who'd known his secret was gone.

He was scared. He was trembling from head to toe. Fear was stamped on his face. He'd never killed a human being before. He never expected that he could ever do this.

He was so scared. He stared at his hands in disbelief. He would do anything to forget everything that transpired that night.

But soon, he came back to his senses. He snapped out of his fear. He grabbed the envelope he had brought and put it next to her body.

After, he started cleaning the place for any fingerprints or anything that could implicate him. He had to make sure there was no trace of him left there. When he was done, he took one last look around the house and left.
