Chapter 968

Vivian's chest heaved violently, her nails digging deep into her palms. "You're lying! Master Zero only feels hatred for you—he'd kill you with his own hands if he could!"

A shadow flickered through Vivian's eyes, yet her lips curled into a sweet smile. "How adorable you look when lying. Did you see him take a bullet for me? Stay up all night brewing medicine?"

"All lies!" Annika slammed her palm against the glass partition. "He's wanted you dead since your Shadow days!"

Isabella gasped, instinctively clutching Vivian's arm.

Vivian gently stroked her abdomen, her smile widening. "Such a pity. This child inside me will have to call him Daddy."

"Shut up!" Annika's eyes burned crimson. "He'll never claim that bastard! Getting close to you was just part of the kill mission! That failed operation? His design!"

The glass reflected Vivian's suddenly pale face.

"The Dark Web incident was another trap." Annika laughed hysterically. "He let himself get captured, waiting for you to rescue him! Vivian, you've been his pawn from the beginning!"

Isabella felt Vivian's hand tremble.

"You thought he was still that Zero who protected you in training camp?" Annika's voice dripped venom. "The top-ranked agent on the leaderboard fed his heart to dogs years ago!"

Vivian's nails pierced her palms, blood trickling between her fingers.

Ethan's warning echoed in her ears. The boy who once wiped blood from her face had died in the passage of time.
