After a torrent of emotions, Katies expression settled into one that was as gray and lifeless as ashes.
Exhausted, Katie slumped against the wall, repeating under her breath, Mitchel, you are absolutely insane!
Katie, this is the price you have to pay, Mitchel taunted her without mercy.
Katie felt as though her world had crumbled. Everything was finished, completely finished. She wasnt ready to die, yet the idea that she wouldnt be alone in death brought her a strange comfort. Mitchel, do you really think youve won?
Katie scoffed. You havent. Youve shown everyone that Im the woman you love most. Youve completely shattered Raegans heart!
Her words transformed Mitchels usually expressionless face into a frosty visage. His face turned stone-cold as he declared, You might want to think about whats coming for you!
I dont care anymore, Katie said faintly. Just moments ago, she was trembling with fear. Her sudden shift in demeanor seemed fishy.

Then it hit her. Mitchel, you dont actually want me dead!

You want me to kill Lorenzo, and then live the rest of my days like a fugitive, always terrified, pursued by the entire Maxwell family, right?
A fierce look sparked in Mitchels eyes. Im merely delaying your end. Do you really think you can evade the entire Maxwell family indefinitely?
Just thinking about the Maxwell family chasing her made Katie shiver from head to toe. The Maxwells wouldnt chase her indefinitely. If they decided to finish her, they would swiftly accomplish their task.
If the target didnt die quickly, the full might of the Maxwell family would ensure success.
