Chapter 390 Interloper

Elspeth swiftly turned around and saw a man pouncing at her. She moved away quickly, but the man kept his eyes on her, his gaze filled with murder.

"That's him. He tried to kill me."

He seems familiar. Elspeth frowned. He looks like someone I know. "Who are you?"

The killer ignored her question and charged at her, holding his bloody knife. Guess we'll be doing this the hard way. Elspeth kicked his knife away and twisted his arm to his back. The man roared in pain from having his arm turned. Then, Elspeth slammed her foot into him again. "Answer me. What are you trying to do?"

"I'll kill you!"

She shot him an icy glare. "Why? I don't remember doing anything to you."

The man looked at the dying woman coldly. "Because you saw me killing her, so I have to get rid of you, too."

"Then, tell me. Why did you want to kill her?"

The man spat before hissing, "My boss' orders. None of your business."

"Is that so?" Elspeth tightened her grip, and the man cried out in pain.
