Chapter 1908: You Actually Deceived Me

Athena had gone completely mad.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, there was a rumbling sound at the entrance to the basement, the sound of a secret door being

opened.

Following that, a beam of light from outside shone into the dimly lit basement.

Athena, upon hearing the sound, suddenly stopped, staring nervously and frantically at the doorway.

"Who?! Who opened the door?! It's impossible! Clearly, no one can open this door!! Who is it? Who on earth?!" She stopped

dancing, her expression a mix of horror and disbelief, vehemently shaking her head. "It doesn't matter, even if the door is opened,

you are all doomed! We've been inhaling this poison gas for so long, it's lethal enough, let's die together!"

"What if there is no poison gas in this smoke?"

Luther, who hadn't spoken in a long time, suddenly interjected.

Athena was startled, turning to glare at him, her eyes bulging in disbelief. "What do you mean? What do you mean there is no

poison gas in the smoke?"

"Exactly what | said." Luther smirked faintly. "If you can prepare in advance, why can't I?"

Athena's eyes widened in disbelief, what did he mean? Could it be that he had ruined her perfect plan? It was impossible, she

refused to believe it.

Joyce, too, was stunned, what was going on? She didn't understand Luther's words, what did he mean?

At this moment, Luther gently patted Joyce's arm, giving her a reassuring strength, then lightly clapped his hands.

As the clapping sound faded away, at the end of the basement doorway, two figures, one large and one small, slowly walked in.

When everyone saw the newcomers, they were all shocked.

It was Cecelia and Alisha!

Cecelia held Alisha's little hand as they walked step by step into the basement.

Joyce instinctively wanted to rush forward to protect Alisha. Was there really no poison gas in the smoke? She wasn't sure. How

could she let Alisha cin at such a dangerous moment?

Luther held her back. "There's no poison. Everything is under my control."

Cecelia led Alisha towards them, calmly saying to Joyce, "Just now, Athena admitted that she is not Alisha's mother. She framed

you, instilled wrong thoughts in Alisha, and deliberately tarnished your image. She admitted it herself, we all heard it."

She squatted down until she was the sheight as Alisha, softly asking, "Alisha, you heard it too, right?"

Alisha nodded vigorously, a hint of emptiness in her crystalline eyes.

She was still young, perhaps unable to comprehend the complexities between adults. But even at her young age, she understood

at this moment that Athena was not her mother. Her real mother was standing in front of her, the "enemy" she always thought she

was.

Joyce's lips trembled, her outstretched hands also trembling. Alisha, her Alisha, her daughter, the child she owed the most, was

standing in front of her, looking at her with anticipation.

Her heart softened, almost melting. She trembled as she reached out her hands, wanting to embrace Alisha, but still hesitated.

Alisha looked at Joyce for a moment, then suddenly ran a few steps forward and threw herself into Joyce's arms, sweetly calling,

"Mommy."

As the warm, small body nestled into her embrace, Joyce felt her heart tremble. She could hardly believe it. Alisha had finally called

her mommy. In the few video calls they had, she had been too afraid to show her face, fearing Alisha's aversion. Today, she

thought she was going to die and wouldn't get to hear Alisha call her that.

Unexpectedly, just now, Alisha actually called her "mommy." Alisha knew all the truth, and she finally acknowledged her.

Athena widened her eyes, watching the scene of maternal love and filial piety before her, her anger almost exploding.

"How is this possible? You actually tricked me. How could you?" She raved madly at Luther. "You actually! Actually!"

She couldn't accept it. She had painstakingly planted the seeds of hatred in Alisha's heart, only to have them exposed by him.

After all her efforts, today was supposed to be the day they would all die together, but it failed. How could she accept that?

Luther sneered, "Athena, have you ever thought about why Aldis, who suddenly appeared by your side, couldn't cooperate with

me?"

"What?!" Athena was stunned. She couldn't believe that the helper Clint had sent to her was actually collaborating with Luther

from the beginning to the end. How was that possible? Aldis was a native of the Rohomes people with a military position. She had

never doubted him! If that was the case, it was no wonder all her plans and locations had been exposed a long tago, no

wonder she had failed miserably!

She staggered, her expression crestfallen and defeated, her figure swaying like a withered leaf in the cold wind.

"You are all in cahoots... You actually deceived me..."

Luther sneered, "Only you're allowed to deceive others? I'm just giving you a taste of your own medicine."

He lifted Alisha from Joyce's embrace.

Alisha, who hadn't seen Luther for a long time, obediently hugged his neck and called out in a childish voice, "Daddy, Alisha is here

to see you. | miss you so much. Will you taketo the seaside?"

Luther nodded gently and kissed Alisha on the cheek. "Alright, no problem. I'll take you tomorrow."

Alisha nodded vigorously.

Luther then looked at Joyce, seeing the doubt in her eyes. He explained, "I'm sorry for keeping it from everyone. | was worried that

if we all knew, it would be difficult to act convincingly, and we wouldn't be able to get Athena to reveal the truth. She has deceived

Alisha for so long, the bond runs deep. She must admit it herself. Aldis and | have always been acquainted, and this twe

collaborated. We planned everything, deceiving everyone. The basement wasn't sealed, and there was no poison gas in the smoke;

it was replaced with another gas. Aldis leaked information so that you could bring in a handgun for self-defense. Joyce, how could |

let you fall into danger again? | promised | would always protect you. I'm sorry for startling you."

Upon hearing his explanation, Joyce finally breathed a sigh of relief.

No matter what, as long as everyone was safe, that was what mattered.

Felix also breathed a sigh of relief. He held Vicki's hand even tighter. He didn't care about himself; he just wanted to ensure the

safety of his loved ones.

"Why were you so calm the whole time? Did you know too?" he suddenly asked, "You didn't tell me."

Vicki wanted to pull her hand back, but found she couldn't. She glared at Felix wordlessly. "Knew my foot! Mr. Warner didn't say a

word."

Thankfully, there was no poison gas in the smoke, just a false alarm.

As everyone relaxed, no one noticed the final burst of resentment in Athena's eyes. She suddenly pulled out a bottle filled with

highly concentrated sulfuric acid.

If today she could only kill one person.

Then that person, she chose Luther!!

She wanted Luther to accompany her in death!
