Chapter 161 Birthday Banquet (3)
Rylan stood by the window, smoking, his back to the camera, his expression unclear.
But he exuded a dark and sharp aura all over him.
Perhaps hearing the sound of footsteps, he slowly turned around, looking at the woman who walked into the bedroom.
His face was as cold as frost, his features sharp as if carved by a knife. He wasn’t wearing glasses, and there was a faint, indifferent chill in his
eyes. He squinted slightly, as if shrouded in a layer of black mist.
He usually wore glasses, giving off a gentle and refined impression, but in the video, he seemed like a completely different person, fierce. and gloomy, sending chills down one’s spine.
Elise walked up to him and took the cigarette from his fingertips.
She tiptoed and whispered a few words into his ear.
The man’s slender hand suddenly gripped her jaw, his eyes coldly scrutinizing her face. “Aurora, you're back!”
Amoment of stiffness flashed across Elise’s face, but quickly, she nodded with a sorrowful smile, “Rylan, if you think | am her, then | am her, as long as it makes you happy.”Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
He lowered his head to look at the woman who was close at hand, the O DOL 13 10
dim yellow light in the bedroom illuminating her delicate and beautiful face. His expression was slightly dazed, as if it overlapped with the woman in his memory.
Elise raised her hand, caressing the man’s handsome face as if it were carved from stone, “Rylan, | can’t understand why you still can’t forget her even though she betrayed you. Where do | fall short compared to her...”
Before Elise could finish her words, she was forcefully pushed onto the bed.
The man loomed over, his eyes dark and menacing, like the King of Hell himself. His large hand, strong as an iron clamp, gripped Elise’s neck, his muscles bulging. “Tell me,” he demanded, “why did you betray Rylan? Wasn’t he good enough for you?”
Elise was choked to the point of gasping for air, her face flushed red, turning a purplish hue. She desperately tried to pry the man’s arms off with her hands, pleading in terror, “Rylan, it’s me, Elise...”
“Wretch!” He didn’t listen to a word she said at all, and raised his hand to slap her hard.
Elise’s lip was split, blood seeping out. He extended his finger, dabbed it in the blood at the corner of her mouth, and tasted it on the tip of his tongue.
Adeep crimson stained the depths of his eyes, as if he was bewitched.
He knelt on one knee by the bed, pulled out his belt, and harshly whipped her several times. The harsher Elise yelled, the more excited he seemed to become.

Elise curled up in the corner of the bed, tears streaming down her face as she begged him to spare her. He stared at her tears for a few seconds, then suddenly pushed her down onto the bed with a cruel force.
Then, it pounced on her, biting her neck.
The scene, abruptly ended.
Everyone in the banquet hall was stunned by the footage in the video.
Rylan frowned, his expression slightly dazed.
He knew he had multiple personality disorder, but it rarely manifested. He didn’t know what he was like when it did, and how dark and ruthless his alter ego could be.
He wasn't particularly shocked, or perhaps, he had a dark side deep within him, which was merely concealed by his gentle and modest demeanor.
Faced with the surprised, panicked. contemptuous, or angry gazes of the crowd. Rylan immediately looked for Danna and Audrey's reactions.
Danna didn’t know that Rylan had dissociative identity disorder. Her face was full of worry and heartache. As for Audrey, apart from a somewhat complex look in her eyes, her expression was not much different from Danna’s.
Audrey nodded at Rylan. “Dad, no matter what you are like, you are the dearest person to me and grandma!”
Rylan’s taut nerves relaxed slightly. Faced with the tidal wave of questions and accusations from the crowd, he picked up the 63.70%
