Bye-bye Trash! Hello Queen! novel Chapter 458

Marico was taken aback. "What are you talking about? Why would I be with Rachel?"

The junior disciple looked surprised. "Haven't you always been in love with Rachel? You killed our master for her sake."

"No, I haven't. I've always seen her as a sister. She was kind to me when we were young, so I thought of her as family. I wanted to avenge her because I thought she was dead. What do you mean, she's not dead?"

Marico brandished his sword, still dripping with Crystal's crimson blood.

"Haha... Marico, you are truly a fool. Rachel spun a few lies, set up a few traps for your master, and you let yourself be completely fooled. You blindly trusted her and killed the master who cherished you more than her own life."

This was Crystal's senior, Zebulon.

His words were overheard by Rachel, who had just arrived.

She froze, her face instantly turning pale.

Marico looked at Crystal's body on the ground, refusing to believe Zebulon. "Zebulon, you're one of them. You and she have been the ones hurting Rachel and me all along."

Zebulon let out a wicked laugh, twisting the knife. "I schemed to have Crystal save you without telling her the truth. I let Rachel frame Crystal, all leading up to this day, waiting for you to hate Crystal to your very core. Because only you could kill her. Hahaha..."

Zebulon roared with laughter.

The truth was out. Even through the screen, Natalie could feel Marico's heart shattering.

It was... so tragic.

It was so similar to her own past life.

Crystal was as foolish as she had been, always prioritizing so-called family ties, only to bring about her own demise.

Marico went mad, completely descending into the demonic path and embarking on a rampage.

Her own tear-filled eyes sparkled like a star-dusted sky, breathtakingly bright.

The boy's eyes lit up. "Wow, you're gorgeous. Is your husband blind?"

"Pfft..." The comment made Natalie burst out laughing, chasing away some of her sadness.

She chuckled, "Maybe. Here, have some of my popcorn."

They both kept their voices low.

"Sure. You look really young," the boy said, smiling at her.

"I'm twenty-three. Still young, I guess."

The boy's smile widened. "We're the same age, then. You got married so young? Well, you can still have fun even if you're married. How about we exchange numbers? Maybe it's fate."
