431 Willingly Disappear
The police opened the laptop on the table and clicked on one of the videos before facing the screen toward Donald.
Donald initially scoffed at the video but his expression gradually sank as it continued to play.
He was very familiar with the scene in the video, for it was the inner room of the funeral parlor which he had just left.
However, he was in a hypnotized state.
He confessed the fact that he instigated Barry to murder Timothy’s family of three.
The person who hypnotized him was Theodore!
His face was ashen as soon as he finished watching!
It was no surprise that the inside of the room was filled with a strong and eerie fragrance of lilies. The sll left him in a daze.
Theodore used that split second to hypnotize him!
He never imagined that Theodore would actually betray him!
That was why his lawyer never ca even though Theodore had been told to get the lawyer...
Donald’s hands clenched into fists and his eyes were full of viciousness.
He then suppressed his anger and sneered. “Fair enough. This barely counts as material evidence even though you obtained it illegally. What about a witness?”
“This evidence is circumstantial. I was hypnotized to say such things when I was unconscious. This is what the hypnotist tricked into saying and they’re not true!”
Timothy’s family were all dead anyway, and dead people could not testify!
The evidence at hand was not enough to sue him!
After all, he had the Barkers behind him as support!
The police seed to have expected him to say that and laughed. “Oh, but we do have witnesses.”
Donald frowned.
The policeman pressed the intercom and said, “Let him in.”
A minute later, the door was pushed open.
Donald looked over subconsciously, only to see a man’s dark black eyes and a cold smirk on the corner of the man’s lips.
Donald’s expression did not waver even with the evidence earlier, but it changed dramatically the second he saw the man walking in.
It was Timothy!
How could he be...alive?
Timothy sneered when he saw Donald’s expression. He walked up to Donald, pulled out a chair, and sat opposite Donald.
“Surprised?” Timothy was the first to speak.
Donald restrained his expressions imdiately. “This is all your ga then?”
He instigated the whole charade to incriminate Donald.
Timothy smiled, “This was your ga, Donald. All I did was destroy it.”
It was only a matter of beating Donald at his own ga.
“You...” Donald frowned.
The man in front of him was the main personality, not the second personality.
“When did you wake up?”
Timothy replied without hesitation. “I’ve been awake all this ti ever since Sammy woke up.”
“How?!” Donald had an incredulous look on his face. “It couldn’t’ve been you in front of !”
He had been with the second personality for so long that he could even be said to have created that second personality. The main personality could never escape his scrutiny if it ever showed up in front of him!
“The person in front of you is naturally the second personality.” Timothy glanced at him. “I was awake, but I never showed up.”
“...So, it was the second personality who has been awake all this ti. You...and him...”
“Yes. We made a deal.”
Timothy smiled contemptuously. “I might be incompatible with the second personality, but we’re still the sa person after all. Even though you chose him, he was the one who chose .”
When the main personality awakened, the ti it had was relatively short and he decided to communicate with the second personality through letters.
It felt weird at first because they were competing for control of the body and yet were perfectly agreeable with each other.
They were like twin brothers.
The second personality did not want to yield and so fought for the right to live.
On the other hand, the main personality could not give up.
He had Sammy and Matthew, which beca the driving force for him to live. He could then take good care of them and make it up to them for everything he did.
The two personalities eventually entered a gentleman’s agreent.
He allowed the second personality to experience the main personality’s life. If that second personality could deceive the whole world and make Samantha choose it, then the main personality would agree to disappear.
If the opposite happened, the second personality would have to be the one that disappeared.
He was confident that even the emotional bond between himself and Samantha would never change regardless of all the misunderstandings he had with her.
Samantha would never choose the second personality and he was sure of it.
He had all his plans in place but left out...the one aspect that he did not consider-that the second personality would develop feelings for Samantha.
He thought that the second personality only had the desire to win, but he did not expect that the second personality would fall for Samantha.
...
The second personality willingly risked his life for Samantha during the explosion. After Timothy was rescued by soone whom the main personality had prepared in advance, he woke up with the second personality vanishing completely.
The only personality left in Timothy was the main one.
He would soon let Donald-the man who planned everything-suffer retribution!
Donald had a terrible expression after hearing that. A few seconds later, he laughed angrily and said, “Well, I didn’t expect...to end up falling for your trick!”
The second personality might be ruthless, but it was never as adept as the main personality in terms of strategy.
Donald resented the fact that one single blunder made all his years of hard work go down the drain, and to make things worse, he was deceived by soone younger than him!
Timothy savored every single bit of Donald’s reaction and said curtly, “I’ve never had an interest in the Barkers, but after you go to prison, I’ll be the new generation’s family head. The Barkers need soone legitimate, and I am that soone. I am legitimate!”
Blood gushed up Donald’s throat all of a sudden and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Despite his unwillingness and anger, there was nothing he could do about it because he was already defeated.
After Timothy said that, he got up without looking at Donald again and stretched his legs to leave.
Donald looked at Timothy’s rear figure and smiled evilly. In a last-ditch effort, he said, “You’re amazing, Timothy. You truly are. But I suppose there’s still one thing that you don’t know about.”
...
“Since you were the bearer of bad news for , I’m going to be the bearer of bad news for you too!”
