Chapter 1232 Now It’s Fair
"I finally regained my original face after numerous skin grafts. Do you know how painful
skin grafting is?" Jewel's voice was hauntingly soft, like the call of a ghost from hell,
scaring Phantom into desperately hiding. She was almost lying on the ground, her heart
shrinking into a tight knot.
At this moment, she had to make a harsh threat. "If you dare to lay your hands on me,
Jonathan and Joseph won't let you off."
Jewel felt as if she had heard the most hilarious joke. "There are so many car accident
deaths these days. You had your face disfigured by an exploding car on your way to work.
Even if they intervene, they can only bid you farewell. What else can they do?"
Hearing that, Phantom was momentarily speechless, and after a long pause, she said,
"They've been searching for you for so many years. If they find out that you're alive and
well, how do you think they will punish you? Have you considered that?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWith a smile, Jewel looked at her and asked, "Are you going to report me? How will you
explain my sudden resurrection? Say you wanted to burn me to death, but I survived and
came for revenge? Then who do you think will be punished? Jewel Fenton from the Double
Dragon Court died in that fire. The one alive now is Jean Louis, someone who can take
your life at any moment."
Her dagger remained threateningly close to Phantom's face. Terrified, Phantom flipped
over and crawled forward as if trying to escape, but her hand reached into her pocket.
Just as Jewel leaned down to grab her back, she suddenly pulled out a dart and slashed it
toward Jewel's arm.
Luckily, Jewel reacted quickly and instinctively dodged, but the blade still grazed her
sleeve. She felt relieved inside, fortunate that she wore multiple layers and had been on
guard against Phantom. If her skin had been grazed, she wouldn't know if she had come
for revenge or to meet her demise.
With narrowed eyes, she quickly bent down to grip the wound on Phantom's arm.
In pain, Phantom dropped the dart in her hand. Phantom had put all her strength into that
strike and now had no more room to retaliate.
Jewel was not one to hesitate, either. She snatched the dart up without a second thought
and swiftly slashed it across her face.
Accompanied by Phantom's horrified and agonized screams, Jewel uttered her words in a
chilling tone, "Since you want to die so badly, I'll grant your wish."
Shrouded in blood, Phantom's trembling hands cradled her face, resembling a bloody
gourd. "My face… My face…" she murmured in despair.
Yet, Jewel remained indifferent. "Now it's fair. I don't believe you can watch your face
slowly rot and perish."
After saying that, she noticed a roll of tape on the coffee table.
She picked it up and first tied Phantom's hands and feet, then used the tape to seal her
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmmouth. Then, she sat on the ground, locked in a stalemate with Phantom. However, her
eyes kept scanning the surroundings, as she thought that maybe she could search for the
antidote.
Though the chances were slim, she had rummaged through everything on Phantom's body
and in her house. She had thoroughly searched any place where she thought the antidote
could be hidden but hadn't found anything resembling an antidote.
Growing impatient with her search, she interrogated Phantom, "Where is the antidote?"
Phantom sneered and remained silent.
Seeing that, Jewel became infuriated and slapped her, causing fresh blood to flow from her
face. "Speak!"
Only after she finished shouting did she realize that she had taped her mouth shut. So,
she reached out and ripped the tape off. "Where is the antidote?"
Phantom looked at her with a scornful smile. "Didn't you find Doctor Bailey, the genius
doctor? Go and ask her for it. You want me to give you the antidote? In your dreams!"
