Yesanger!
He felt like his greatest masterpiece had been ruined by someone else.
Shane didn’t stay until the end of the funeral. Eventually, people began leaving one by one. Even Wayne, who could barely hold on, had to be helped away. In the end, only Sierra, Mateo, Stone, and a few others remained.
“Sierra!”
Mateo opened his mouth, unsure of what to say.
“Let’s go.”
Sierra took one final look, then turned and left.
News of Johnathan’s death spread far and wide
– even the special hospital caught wind of it.
Quinn had been stable lately, so when the weather was good, she was sometimes brought outside to get
always in handcuffs and shackles, of course.

She overheard people talking about Johnathan being dead.
Her first reaction was: impossible!
Johnathan couldn’t be dead!
This had to be a conspiracy.
Her brother was far too smart. Last time, when he deliberately said those things to her face, it had to be a test. She didn’t believe a single word of it.
Yes, Quinn wasn’t insane. But she had no choice but to pretend to be. That was the only way t She had to wait until they all let their guard down – only then could she find her chance to escape.
– not until she saw the news confirming Johnathan’s death.
vive.
At first, Quinn didn’t believe it Johnathan had a high status in his field. Calling him a titan wasn’t an exaggeration. Of course, the media. reported on it, and there were even photos from the burial. She saw Sierra. She saw Maddox and the others.
Quinn’s expression changed instantly.
Johnathan really was dead.
How could this be possible?
Quinn couldn’t accept it. She didn’t dare show it, but she was in shock the entire day. Eventually, she couldn’t hold back anymore and contacted someone on the outside

and the news she got made her
Chapter 436 The One Who Shouldn’t Have Died
Johnathan really was dead.
That very night, Sierra got word that Quinn had been broken out.
She hung up the phone and looked over at the person slicing fruit. Slowly, she said:
“You were right. Quinn really wasn’t crazy.”
The man slowly looked up. It was Johnathan! 2
Hearing Sierra’s words, he stood up and said, “Let’s hope she doesn’t disappoint us this time.”
Because Quinn was believed to be mad, her security had already been reduced. It had been easy for her to
escape.
The one who picked her up was a member of the organization–Trihands. After giving her a look, he said.
“You’ve really got skills. Fooled everyone. I gotta say – respect. I want to see the boss.”
Quinn said coldly.
“The boss isn’t around.”
The man replied.
“Don’t lie to me. I’m not an idiot.”
Quinn’s face was fierce. “I said, I want to see the boss.”
“What’s the point?” Trihands tried to soothe her. “The guy’s dead. Seeing the boss won’t change that.”
“That’s not true. The boss made a promise.”
Quinn’s face was filled with rage. When she first joined, the condition had been that Johnathan would be hers.
“The boss didn’t expect him to die so soon, either!”
Trihands explained, “This whole thing – it’s Sierra’s fault. We thought she was some kind of genius, but turns out… not so much. In the beginning, we didn’t want things to turn out like this. We just wanted to take Johnathan. The stuff he was working on – our meds were all based on his original formulas. The boss really valued him. But we couldn’t get him out, so the boss decided to go along with it and see what Sierra was made of. If the boss had really wanted him dead, we wouldn’t have sent him the buffer solution. If he’d kept using the buffer, he wouldn’t have died. But he chose to trust Sierra and took some untested compound. His body rejected it hard. Who can you blame for that? We were just as shocked when we got the news.”
“Shut up!”
Quinn didn’t want to hear any of this. Her mind had only one thought: Johnathan was dead. The man she’d been obsessed with for so many years was dead.
Seeing how furious she was, Trihands stopped talking and drove her to a boat.

“You made it out?”
The voice came from a man who was sitting at the bow of the boat, fishing.
“Word’s probably already gotten out that you escaped. Soon, you’ll be leaving on this boat.”
The man instructed calmly.
Quinn didn’t respond to that. She just said, “You promised me. You said you wouldn’t take his life.
“It was an accident. Believe me

are.”
He didn’t finish the sentence. But Quinn could tell – he really hadn’t wanted Johnathan to die.

But it didn’t last long. He soon chose to go out into the world on his own. During those years, they still kept in touch.
When he came back, he started studying biochemistry. Then he planned to go abroad and without hesitation, she went with him.
That was when her pain began. So many people surrounded him, coming and going. He treated her differently, yes – but never in the way she hoped.
When she accidentally expressed her attachment to him, he gently pushed her away.
So she tried testing him, telling him she had a boyfriend at school. He didn’t even bat an eye. He told her to be good to the guy.
That was when her mindset shifted.
She had always believed she and Johnathan were meant to be together – whether as siblings or something more. But his indifference made her realize he could live just fine without her.
That realization broke her completely. And then, by chance, she met certain people.
Looking back, it was likely they had been targeting her from the start- because she was the only one who could still get close to Johnathan.
From there, things spun out of control. She did many things, but all she ever wanted was to be with him.
They were both pitiful souls – unloved, abandoned. She had always believed Johnathan would eventually understand that.
She had waited for that day for years. She had even held back from returning to their home country. That was her biggest regret – because she let her guard down, Sierra was able to enter his world. At first, she thought it was just a passing infatuation. But Johnathan only sank deeper and deeper. By the time she realized it, there was no place left for her in his life.
How could I accept that?
-But even then, she had never thought of taking Johnathan’s life. She certainly never imagined he’d die
from the very drug she had developed.
Yes that drug had been her creation. She had designed it specifically for Johnathan.
–
Even the buffer agent had been made for him. She had wanted to make him addicted, to make him unable to leave her.
But he’d rather die than submit.
She had miscalculated. She’d forgotten how proud he was – and she had tried to control him.
“I was wrong.”
Quinn suddenly said, “How could I forget how proud he was? How could I think he would ever give in just

to stay alive?”
Hearing that, the man furrowed his brows. “So what now? What are you planning to do?”
