"But at least with the police involved, Wayne and his cousin wouldn't dare act recklessly. Why take the risk of confronting them?"
I shook my head, closing my eyes to recall their actions in the previous life. Would they not dare to act recklessly? No.
"Krystal, you don't know about Wayne. He's a vindictive and ruthless person. If he gets away with it, he'll come back for his revenge. He's like a ticking time bomb!"
"He'll stop at nothing to get what he wants. Do you know why he wasn't caught for twenty years in his previous life? Because he had exceptional counter-surveillance skills and had prepared thoroughly."
"Krystal, our only way out is to fight back. It's the only path we can take."
Krystal wiped away her tears and replied, "I was confused. I'll take Shawn and Maryann away."
She wanted to take me with her as well, but after I reassured her multiple times that I had figured out how to deal with them, she reluctantly gave up the idea.
After lunch, Krystal made an excuse about missing grandma and took our siblings out. Mom gave her a strange look.
"You, grown up as you are, believe Larry's nonsense."
