Day Sixty-Three…

~~*****~~

Bam!

Karina wasn't prepared for that punch. She was about to fight back but Jane swiftly threw another punch, hitting Karina's nose. 

Karina's nose bled almost instantly as she fell back. Jane stepped forward, grabbing her by her collar.

"Damn you, bitch! Let go!" Karina snarled at her, holding Jane's hand. She was trying to remove Jane's grip on her collar.

Using her free hand, Karina also threw an uppercut. She was enraged because Jane already hit her twice. She needed to get even with her. She was confused and wondered who this attacker was.

Before her fist hit Jane's jaw, her left arm captured Karina's wrist, twisting it with force. 

"Argh!!" Karina winced in pain. She didn't expect that her opponent was stronger than her. From her figure, she could already tell that her opponent was also a woman.

Jane pushed her to the wall, placing her elbow against Karina's neck. She pressed her with force, immobilizing her.

"W-Who are you?" Karina asked her again. She wanted to know Jane's identity. She was wearing a mask so Karina could only see her emerald eyes.

"The devil whom you shouldn't have messed with," Jane replied sarcastically. 

Thud!

Jane gave Karina another punch in her stomach.

Karina couldn't believe that a trained police officer like her couldn't fight back. She was helpless against this woman. She was a professional killer. She started to feel anxious. "Where is Tom? What did you do to him? Is he the one who hired you?"

"What do you want from me?" Karina tried to struggle against her. "If you want money, I'll give you money!" Karina began to negotiate with her. She was clueless about her mistake. Hurting Abigail's feelings was her fatal mistake that brought her to this predicament.

Without further ado, Jane picked something from her pocket. It was a small syringe. She injected it into Karina's neck, making her weak. This serum was not a sedative because she needed Karina to stay awake. But it could only numb her body.

In just a few seconds, Karina already felt her body weakening. Jane dragged Karina to the sofa, making her sit. She didn't need to be violent anymore. But her hatred toward this woman was still there. Three punches were not enough to pacify her anger.

Jane fixed Karina's position on the chair and she stood before her. She fished out another serum from her pocket. Jane smiled inwardly as she recalled how she managed to get this truth serum.

Chantha was the one who gave her this truth serum. Chantha owed her. She lost a bet so Chantha was obliged to do and fulfill her request. One of her requests was to have truth serum which was manufactured by Nathan's medical facility. 

Chantha secretly took this supply and gave it to Jane. Jane owned five sets of truth serum. Now, she was going to use one now. 'This is worth a million. Sigh. Sorry, Nate, for wasting this one for this bitch.'

Then Jane smirked as she recalled that Karina brought some money for Tom. She would take it as compensation for using this truth serum. This was the fastest way of making her talk. This apartment was not her hideout so doing a bloody torture would take time to clean her mess.

She had the remaining four truth serums left. She planned on using one for Vincent, one for the leader of King Stallion Mafia, and one for Monica if ever she would be able to find her. One was reserved for her extra use.

Jane used the truth serum and injected it into Karina's neck once more. She glanced at her wristwatch, waiting for the serum to take effect. After calculating the time, Jane began her interrogation.

ραΠdαsΝοvεl.cοm "The plan of breaking Abigail and Dave… did you do it alone?" Jane asked her.

Karina's focus was gone. Jane could tell that Karina was now under the influence of the truth serum.

Karina shook her head. "No," she shortly responded.

"Who devised this plan?" Jane threw a follow-up question.

"Miss Helena Carlsen. She approached me first. She's the one who offered me this plan." Karina confessed.

Jane clenched her fists. Her suspicion was now confirmed. She had an intuition that Helena had something to do with this evil scheme.I think you should take a look at ραΠdαsnovel.cοm

'So she is the mastermind. She keeps hurting my sister. She touched my bottom line. I will not let her slide this time. I will make her pay!' Jane swore to herself. She was already imagining different ways of having her revenge against Helena Carlsen.

'I must know what is her weakness!' Jane became more motivated and determined to punish Helena Carlsen. She already set her next target. After Karina, Jane decided to confront Helena. 

"Payback time," Jane mumbled, a cold glint flashing through her eyes.

"Why? What was her motive? What did she tell you?" Jane continued interrogating her.

"She wanted to break Abigail's heart. She told me that she hated her. She told me that Abigail didn't deserve Dave. She told me that Abigail betrayed Dave once and cheated on him. She chose a rich man over him. I got angry when I heard that. I can't accept that Dave just allowed Abigail to cheat on him."

Jane found out that Helena manipulated Karina as well. She knew that the man Helena was referring to was Nathan. It only meant Helena used this story to urge and manipulate Karina to cooperate with her plan. She made him believe that Dave was a victim and Abigail was cheating on him.

'She is one cunning woman! She is like a puppet master!' Jane thought to herself. She could finally grasp Helena's traits and behavior.

"I thought Abigail was her friend. Why does he hate her?" Jane was curious about it. Abigail told her that Helena and she got along really well in Country R. They were friends. But it turned out Helena was just pretending in front of Abigail, acting as if she was a real friend.

"I don't know. I can't understand her sometimes. She is weird for hating women with emerald eyes. She mentioned it once to me." Karina spoke again.

Jane frowned when she heard that. 'She is indeed weird. So she will definitely hate me. My presence alone will annoy her.' She got an idea about how she would piss Helena off. She had so many scores to settle with her. She couldn't wait to achieve her goal. Jane's hatred shifted back to Helena.

"It's your fault for allowing that woman to use you for her scheme." Jane shook her head as she watched Karina helplessly. Karina was a pathetic woman who was longing for Dave's love. But she couldn't pity her. After all, this woman was responsible for hurting her sister. She might not be the mastermind but she was an accomplice.

She recorded this conversation again so that Abigail would finally realize that Helena was fake. She was not a true friend.

'What should I do to her?' Jane asked herself. She watched Karina. It won't take long before the truth serum wore off. She wouldn't remember this conversation once she sobered up. 

Jane hit her neck using the side of her palm to knock her unconscious. Now she had to leave the place. But before she could do that, Jane heard the loud crashing sound from the front door.

'Who is that?' Jane was in the bedroom so she failed to notice someone's else presence. She made sure to lock the door. Who the hell broke the door this time?

Jane quietly stepped forward, trying to find out who was the intruder. She held her dagger, getting ready to attack whoever person she would encounter in that house. She moved closer to the door, listening to the footsteps.

Jane tightened her grip on the dagger when the footsteps were inching closer and closer to her spot. She waited for someone to open the door. A few seconds later, someone pulled the door open and entered the room. Jane raised her arm to hit the person but she stopped the moment she recognized him.

'Nate?' Jane didn't expect to see him. 'What is he doing here?'

Sensing the danger, Nathan grabbed Jane's wrist and pulled her. At first, he didn't recognize her because of her mask. He was going counter her and snatched the dagger away from her hand when Jane maneuvered and moved behind him, capturing his hands.

"Nate! Why are you here?" Jane finally spoke up. 

Nathan was surprised when he heard her voice. "Phantomflake?" No wonder he felt some familiarity when he saw her. And her scent was the same as Jane's.

"Did you follow me again?" Jane questioned him, not letting his hands free.

"No! I'm here to see Dave. Why are you here?" Nathan spat back at her. Then he narrowed his eyes when he noticed Karina's unconscious body. "Did you kill her? Are you back to killing someone again?" Nathan said in a cold tone, accusing her.

Jane rolled her eyes skyward. "Here we go again, Nate! You are jumping to conclusions again. You only see my bad side."

Jane let him go and pushed him away in disappointment. "Don't worry. I didn't kill her. I'm just here to seek the truth. I'm doing this for my sister. The woman you like!" Jane sounded sarcastic. 

Nathan was about to argue with her when they both heard Abigail's voice. "Nate? Have you seen Dave?"

Jane and Nathan exchanged glances with one another. They both realized that Abigail shouldn't see Jane in this attire. Nathan reflexively turned around, closing the door before Abigail could see them.
