Chapter 154 The Mind Game

The voice from the back was too soft.

Faye would have missed it if her hearing wasn't sensitive enough.

When Faye heard someone calling her name, she turned around to look for the source of the sound. She found Nylah who was hiding behind the stone pillar and clutched the corner of her clothes. Nylah looked very nervous. She was trembling when she saw Faye was looking at her.

Faye was rushing. She looked at the watch on her wrist and said softly, "Nylah."

Nylah came out from the pillar and looked around to make sure there was no one. After that, she approached Faye quickly and said, "Faye...Faye, shall we talk in the car?" After hearing that, Faye reached out to open the passenger door and said, "Get into the car."

Nylah made herself inside the car and looked at Faye who was walking to the driver's seat and getting into the car. She pursed her lips and said, "I saw it the other day." Faye asked, "What did you see?"

Nylah looked frightened and said, "That man was beaten to death, his face was scratched with a knife, and he was thrown into the swimming pool in the backyard..." Nylah's speech was stammering, and her body was trembling involuntarily with every word that she said.

After that, she looked at Faye timidly and asked, "That person... What... What is your relationship with that person?"

Faye and Nylah weren't close to each other. They only met each other once or twice before which hardly made them acquaintances, let alone opened up to each other. Faye didn't answer Nylah's question directly. Instead, she asked, "Have you ever told anyone about this?"

Nylah shook her head and said, "No, I didn't tell anyone else except you. I didn't even mention it to Hank."

Faye turned her head and looked at her, "I will pretend that I didn't hear all those from you today. Keep it to yourself and don't tell anyone else!"

As soon as Faye finished her words, Nylah grabbed her arm and said, "But I'm afraid."

Faye looked confused, "Huh?"

Nylah's eyes turned red and said, "Faye, I'm afraid. I'm afraid that I will be the next person to die. I am still very young. I don't want to die..."

Faye had dealt with different kinds of people in the entertainment industry and she could basically tell by a glance whether the person was telling the truth or not.

Faye knew that Nylah wasn't sincere before that and only tried to fawn on her. But now, she could sense that Nylah's fear was real.

After Nylah finished speaking, Faye didn't seem to want to continue the conversation. Nylah pursed her lips and said, "I just want to say that all I want is to live. It isn't my choice to get married to Hank..." Nylah looked extremely frightened. Her speech was incoherent and disoriented.

Nylah kept on talking but Faye remained silent.

Later on, Nylah let go of Faye's hands, covered her face with her hands, and started to cry.

Nylah was crying loudly. Faye handed some tissues to her with an indistinguishable expression.

Nylah took over the tissues and sobbed, "Faye, no one else could help me except you."

Faye leaned her back on the seat and said softly, "Nylah, are you taking a day off to show up today?" Nylah sobbed, "Yes."

Faye continued, "Don't you think that brother will find you suspicious? You have no one in Cocanel but you take a day off to go out despite there being such a big incident just happened to the Farrells." Nylah was startled which caused the tissues torn in her hand.

Faye turned to look at Nylah and smiled lightly, "Nylah, I was raised by the Farrells. I am very grateful to them. I will never betray the Farrells."

Faye was talking gently but Nylah's face was white as a sheet after hearing her words.

As soon as Faye finished speaking, the mobile phone in her pocket rang and broke the deadlock in the car.

Faye took out her mobile phone and pressed the answering button. It was Alexander on the other end, "Faye, where are you? I am freezing at the entrance of the residency."

Faye replied, "I bump into an acquaintance. I'll be right there."

After that, Faye disconnected the call and looked at Nylah, "Nylah, I am sorry. But there is something else waiting for me."

Nylah could sense that Faye was asking her to leave. She pursed her lips and reached out to push the car door.

After Nylah put her hand on the handle, she turned to look at Faye out of a sudden and said, "Could you please don't tell anyone that I come to you today?"

Faye glanced at her and said, "There are two types of people who can survive easily in society. They are either smart people or silly people. If you can't be extremely smart, then you have to learn to act silly." Nylah was speechless.

After Nylah got off the car, Faye pressed the accelerator and left.

The car arrived at the residency where Alexander was living. As soon as Faye stopped the car, she saw that Alexander was squatting next to the stone statue at the entrance of the residency.

Alexander was biting on a cigarette that was almost burnt out and his hands were hidden in his sleeves. He looked like a stupid deer jumping in the snow because of coldness.

Faye wound down the window and honked. Alexander raised his head, spitted out the cigarette from his mouth, and limped into the car.

Faye asked, "Have you waited for long?"

Alexander put his hands on the outlet of the heater to keep himself warm. He replied, "Faye, it isn't just long. It seems that I have waited forever. If you arrive a little longer than this, the residency's staff might have mistaken me as a newly made ice sculpture."

Alexander was young and like to joke. Faye smiled and asked, "Is Mason home?"

Alexander nodded and said, "Yes. She went out half an hour ago to meet someone."

Faye was curious and asked, "Who?"

Alexander answered while rubbing his hands, "Helen Farrell."
