In Tessa's eyes, Raegan was to meet her demise today. Therefore, Tessa didn't hide the truth from Raegan anymore, wanting Raegan to suffer from the revelation before the final end of her life.

“Back then, Lauren provided me with the money and revealed details about your discharge. Then, I arranged for someone to kidnap you in the underground parking lot. Did you recall Lauren was coincidently kidnapped that day? Well, it was just a staged performance for Mitchel, urging Mitchel to rush over to save her while leaving time for me to end you. But..."

Tessa confessed without a hint of remorse. She then paused for a brief moment and looked down at Raegan with apparent disdain.

“Even if I tell you, what difference does it make? Lauren didn't directly do anything. What can you possibly do to her?"

Raegan felt a surge of fury, which caused her entire body to tremble.

Sure enough, Lauren was undoubtedly involved.

Lauren played her cards right and ensured there would be no direct evidence against her even if the truth came to light. How evil! What a cunning and vicious woman!

The truth was, Tessa, too, resented Lauren. If it hadn't been for Lauren's manipulation, she wouldn't be hunted down by Mitchel like this. Moreover, she wouldn't have met that pervert fisherman and wouldn't have been tortured.

In Tessa's tormented mind, everyone she met was to blame for her misery. The more Tessa dwelled on it, the more her face contorted into a ferocious expression.

"It's all your fault! ALL of you guys! I was a refined young woman.

My face was my fortune!" Tessa spat, her face twisted further into a grotesque appearance.

Tessa had spent millions maintaining her appearance and striving for perfection. With her looks alone, she assumed she could've married into a wealthy family and led a leisurely life. But now, her once flawless face was marred beyond repair.

Medical experts had told Tessa no amount of money could fix her face.

Her body, too, had deteriorated due to neglect.

For Tessa, life had lost its meaning and purpose.

Today, she was prepared to gamble with her life. A win meant escape and riches, while a loss would mean dragging Raegan and Mitchel down with her.

Raegan watched Tessa with alarm. The latter's behavior was erratic and far removed from sanity.

At this moment, Raegan tried to appeal to Tessa's remaining reason and advised, "Tessa, don't make things worse for yourself. Let me go now, and you might still have a chance. But if you cross the line, there will be no turning back."

"Let you go? Keep dreaming!" Tessa laughed terrifyingly, bringing shiver down Raegan's spine.

"Oh, I'll release you. But straight to hell. You and Mitchel can be together there."
