Chapter 813
Burning Passion: Love Never Die
Stepping back from the bedside, Leon compressed his lips tightly.
Lois reminisced about the days Fiona served as a maid in her house, her chest constricting. Had she
denied Fiona those tasks, perhaps she wouldnât have met her demise.
After her classes, Millie hailed a taxi and boarded it. âSir, please halt,â Millie suddenly requested.
In the vehicle, she saw Leon stood by an alley with two individuals carrying a stretcher draped in white
fabric.
âWhoâs that?â Millie disembarked and eyed the stretcher swathed in white.
âItâs Fiona. Sheâs passed away,â Leon disclosed. âHow did she die?â Millie questioned. Hadnât Fiona
been hit by a car the previous day, only to rise and leave in a taxi? How did she suddenly die? Millie
was planning to approach Fiona for confirmation of her suspicions.
âShe sustained injuries from the car collision yesterday. Her body had internal complications,â Leon
clarified. âYesterday, it appeared Fiona fled in a taxi, fearing capture by the two individuals. However,
her injuries from the accident proved fatal.â
Leon loosened his tie, brows furrowed.
Fiona had identified the person he sought.
The cryptic words she managed before her demise, âThe real Aisha is justâ¦â signified that this
individual was someone familiar, someone in proximity.
She had been manipulated into impersonating another, but who had issued that directive?
âShe suffered such severe scalding. Why would she still attempt escape?â

Suddenly, the conversation between the two servants at the entrance of the Raynesâ residence last
night surfaced in Leonâs mind.
Fiona had posed as someone else, with Lois reaping the greatest advantages. Could Lois be the
mastermind behind this elaborate scheme? Fiona had served Lois. A cold sweat broke out on Leonâs
back as he considered the possibility.
Everything had been meticulously orchestrated by the cunning hand of Lois.
Leon found himself unable to escape contemplation regarding the true identity of Aisha. His circle of
acquaintances was limited, and his knowledge of women was even scarcer.
Except for Fiona and Lois, the logical conclusion would beâ¦
In an abrupt twist of fate, Leonâs gaze pivoted towards Millie, a symphony of astonishment dancing in
his eyes.
Ah, yes, it was Millie. A sensation of familiarity had always been an unseen thread connecting them.
âAre you okay?â she queried, her voice a soothing cadence.
Caught within the tangled web of surprise and abstraction, Leonâs countenance was a canvas of
astonishment.
âLeon.â Once more, Millie advanced, extending her hand and gesturing it in front of his gaze.
