She was so scared that her eyes blurred.

As Willie unscrewed the Lid of the bottle slowly, he explained, "This is sulfuric acid. I'll pour it on your wound to help you heal faster." “Hmmm Hmmm."

Audrey's screams of horror were all muffled. Tears streamed down her cheeks Like a never-ending stream.

Wiilie didn't sympathize with her. She didn't deserve any form of sympathy from anyone. She wanted to get everything from the Johnston family, and to get that, she poisoned Isaac's parents and tried to kill Isaac the day he was burying them. There probably existed no one crueller than her.

She deserved everything that was happening to her and would happen to her.

“Just hold still. I'11 be done soon," Willie said in a gentle tone that only scared her more. Drop by drop, he slowly dripped the liquid into the gash on her shoulder.

Audrey's eyes went so wide and round.

As the liquid touched her skin, the room filled with the smell of burned skin.

"Ouch!" Audrey screamed out in pain.

It was so painful that a few minutes Later, she passed out.

Willie wasn't having it. As soon as this happened, he poured the hot tea that was on the table on her face to wake her up.

Then, he tortured her over and over again, repeating the process until he was satisfied.

Finally, he stopped and put his things away as if nothing happened.

He looked at her with an intense stare and said, “Know this.. No one will take care of your injuries in there.“

Isaac's face remained unreadable. No matter how much Audrey suffered, it would never be enough to heal the pain he felt in his heart.

No pain could surpass the one of his parents’ death.

That was more painful than being pushed into water and almost drowning. After one last glance at Audrey, he walked out the room, but met Robin outside.

Robin's face was void of any emotion.

There was no warmth in his eyes as he looked at Isaac.

"Can we talk?" Robin asked.

Isaac didn't agree, but he didn't refuse either.

Robin and Stevie looked at each other meaningfully, and sighed in relief at the same time.

At least Isaac was willing to listen and maybe talk. Did that mean there was still hope for him to help them out?

Robin had renewed hope.

He held Stevie's hand and tried to catch up with Isaac who was walking without a care in the world.
