Chapter 471

471 Plot Twist
“My sister was suffering in the washing machine,” Lana hissed, sounding unhinged as she looked down
at her hands. “I screamed and screamed, but no one came to save us!”

“If they wanted us dead, why give birth to us in the first place?” Her voice was frighteningly low as she
demanded, “Why? Tell mel”
The hospital building quaked like it was about to collapse as Lana tossed Lucy aside.
The dark shadows looming up behind Lana were a maelstrom of hatred. Even though there were no
openings, a bone–chilling draft blew into the room. It was as if some evil force was trying to swallow
everyone present.
Yvonne and Cecilia had passed out from fear. Zane and Oliver wanted to bolt, but when they opened
the door, they were greeted by a dark abyss instead of a corridor.
“What the hell is this?” They spied a black river filled with writhing shadows flowing past their feet.
Zane staggered back and fell on his backside. Fear registered in his eyes as he realized there was no
escape from this room.
At that moment, Wynter bit her fingertip until it bled and cast her purple sugilite pendant into the river.
The shadows fell back as if they had been scorched and disappeared into the black river once more.
Before long, the hospital walls appeared again.
Lana regarded Wynter with surprise. “You know the Arcane Way?”
“Yes,” Wynter answered. With no cameras on her, she could do what she needed to placate the
tortured spirits here.
“This isn’t fair!” Lana shrieked. “Why are you helping them and not us?”
“How is it fair if you kill these people?” Wynter countered patiently. “If you love your sister as much as
you claim, you should know that your souls will be eternally damned if you kill.
“If you and your sister keep reliving the same day, her soul won’t be able to take it.”
Wynter looked at Lana and asked, “Are you going to let your sister’s soul be trapped in darkness and
be used as a tool forever?”
Lana faltered and clutched her hards nervously. “I… I was told by a man that if I did as he asked, he
would help avenge my sister and me.”
“I can help you with that right now.” Wynter raised her gaze to meet Lana’s. “Have you forgotten what
the person who killed you looks like?”
Lana looked puzzled. “Killed us?”
“I can help you remember. But first, you have to restore these cameras and stop interfering with the
reception,” Wynter explained as she pointed at the cameras. “If we’re going to expose a criminal, we

should do it with an audience.”

Hesitation colored Lana’s expression, and the shadows behind her swirled in an Invisible breeze as
they muttered softly, “Let’s do as she says.”
“You trust her?” The reflection in the window made Lana look like she was conversing with herself. A
beat
later, she said under her breath, “Fine.”
With a wave of her hand, the cameras were brought back to life, and the footage on the audience’s
screens was restored.
Given the interruption earlier, the audience had no idea why Zane and Oliver looked like they had seen
death.
The only one with any composure was Wynter, who pinned a newspaper article on the table and said,”
There’s another story we need to piece together.”
The audience gasped.
“Another story?” one of them commented in disbelief.
The production crew hurried to reassure the audience once they saw that the reception was restored.
Images of Wynter’s flawless face had been screenshotted and circulated across the web.
Back in the hospital, she launched into a retelling of the so–called second story.
“Three years ago, a couple made a report claiming that their twin daughters had fallen into a washing
machine when they weren’t looking.
“According to the wife, she was busy looking after her newborn son, the twin daughters‘ younger
brother The husband, on the other hand, was cooking in the kitchen.
“However, something about this narrative doesn’t quite add up.”
Lana froze when she heard this. She mumbled to herself as she stood in place, “My sister and I fell into
the washing machine?”
“According to the police statement, yes, Wynter confirmed. She pointed at the words “newborn son” in
the article and mused, “There is another presumption here. Would you like to hear it?”
