Rachel chuckled, a visceral satisfaction gleaming in her eyes. "We'll take away what she cares most about. It would be a great sight when she embarrasses herself publicly."

Elisa snapped her fingers, equally delighted that she shared the same thought with Rachel.

On the other end, Linda was struggling with her allergies.

She had stepped away from the table to take Norman's call and quickly swallowed two allergy medication tablets.

While she was "dead," Mrs. Garner trained her to change many of her previous habits. Unfortunately, she was born with a mango allergy that could not be altered.

In case of emergencies, she carried around her allergy medication, which proved useful at this moment.

It seemed that Elisa had not intentionally ordered a glass of mango juice.

Linda was no longer the same person as she changed her habits and facial features. Furthermore, Elisa had never caught her interacting with anyone using her true identity before.

Therefore, Elisa wouldn't be able to uncover her secret.


Nonetheless, she was very cautious in protecting her real identity. "You don't have to call me every time," she advised Norman with a hint of frustration. "If you want to inform me anything, just text me. I'll reply to you right away."

Norman's forehead creased into a deep scowl when he heard Linda's indifferent response to his call.

She had never spoken to him in this manner before, and he knew immediately that something was wrong. "Your voice sounds hoarse. Did something happen?"

"I'm getting an allergic reaction," Linda responded with strain, her lips pressed together in a tight line.

Norman knew of Linda's allergies to mangoes. Why would she eat mangoes of her own will?

Unless…

"Was Elisa trying to test you?" Norman asked through gritted teeth.

He immediately suspected Elisa to be the one behind this.

Although he wasn't present at the Garner family's banquet, he constantly watched what was happening. He knew that Elisa and Linda got closely acquainted during the banquet.

He also noticed that Elisa was with Rachel a little while ago.

Linda shook her head in denial. "There's no way Elisa did this purposely. She's not God. How could she know about my real identity?"

The incident with the mango juice was simply a coincidence.

However, Norman suspected that it wasn't as simple as Linda believed. He pursed his lips as he reminded, "Elisa is not an easy target. You should be careful of her. Also… your mom called me… she said she really misses you..."

Linda held her tongue as the silence hung heavy in the call.

She couldn't do anything about it as she was already "dead." Despite her mom's longing for her, she couldn't even call or meet her.
