Chapter 160
The woman didn’t have a name and everyone who knew her called her Twiggy because she was found
under a tree by a homeless man. She was just a child then and was mentally disabled. If it wasn’t for
the homeless man, she would have been dead.
Twiggy didn’t speak in the foreign environment until she suddenly saw Hesper at the door, her support
system.
“You… you’re awake!”
Hesper nodded, then walked slowly over to her bed and sat down.
She overestimated her own condition. Her back didn’t hurt when she was just lying in bed because her
wound wasn’t moved. However, just walking that short distance gave her immense pain.
Twiggy was supposed to be around Hesper’s age, but her IQ was of a child.
Hesper took some time to rest, so her wound stopped hurting.
After consoling Twiggy, she started getting to the point and asked, “On the day that you saved me, did
you see someone push me?”
Twiggy blinked a few times, as if she was thinking, then nodded very hard.
“That man was young, skinny, tall.” It was difficult for Twiggy to describe someone. “He wore a mask,
was a man, couldn’t see the face but he had a mole.”

“A mole? Where?”
That was a key feature. Twiggy raised her hand and tapped under Hesper’s right eye. “Here.”
Meanwhile, Juniper got the news that Hesper woke up and grabbed tightly onto her sheets.
How could she be so lucky?
She logged onto the dark web and opened the black chatbox as her face twisted in anger.
Memory: What the hell did you do? Hesper, someone so weak, managed to survive. What did I pay you
for?
The reply usually took a long time, but this time, Juniper got an immediate reply.
013: I can give you a refund.
The calm reply mocked Juniper for her anger.
Memory: That’s how you speak to a client? I’m going to lodge a complaint against you.
This time the person didn’t reply as quickly, but instead took some time.
013: Do you think this is an online shopping platform?
That woke Juniper up. She stared at her phone and started being careful. Yes, this was the dark web
and she was dealing with an assassin!
013: It was my fault for failing the mission, but you didn’t say that this involved the Lanes.
013: That’s a problem.
When 013 asked Juniper about Hesper, she remembered telling him that Hesper was the ex-wife of Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
Rickard, an orphan. She forgot that Hesper was now Ms. Lane!
Memory: You dare offend the Duvals but not the Lanes?
013 stopped replying. Juniper couldn’t rush him even when she was anxious. These people ran a
business that revolved around taking lives. Even though she was hiring them, she wouldn’t dare anger
these bunch
of crazies.
013: It’s just troublesome, but I’ll still do it. Just wait for it.
Memory: Alright, I’m looking forward to your update.
