Paid For My Twin Sister's Crimes

chapter 282

👼 MY ANGEL 👼

Elsa received a visitor first thing in the morning.

She walked into the visiting room thinking it could be Lui, but Bruno was the one waiting for her. This took Elsa by surprise. She didn't expect him to come see her. They were friends, but still, she didn't expect it.

Elsa walked over to the table and sat on the chair opposite him.

"Are you okay?" Bruno asked, the first thing he said.

Elsa just nodded as she sank into the chair.

Bruno looked at her, noticing how disconnected she seemed. "Elsa, is something going on with you?"

Elsa tilted her head to the side and smiled lightly. "What gave it away?"

Bruno was slightly afraid of Elsa, so he answered carefully. "You just don't seem like yourself right now."

Elsa nodded. "Yeah, something is going on."

Before he could respond, Elsa continued talking. "I am now just as strong as her when it comes to the mind. Maybe I am even a little stronger, strong enough to stay in control. I can feel Elsa trying to fight now and take back control. But deep down, she knows this is for the best."

Those confusing words made Bruno's face turn complicated. "Elsa is trying to fight you? I don't understand, you're Elsa, right?"

"Technically, that's accurate. But at the moment, I may not be the Elsa you know."

"So you are Gwen? Did you use a double identity and commit fraud like they claimed?"

"No, I didn't. I am not Gwen... I am Elsa. But, I am not Elsa either."

Bruno looked at Elsa, confused. "What does even that mean?"

Elsa chuckled and leaned on the table. "You could have been on my hit list, by the way... You should have been one of the people I took revenge on. But you just had to be nice to me and save my life, didn't you?"

Elsa was scaring Bruno. He was wondering if something was going on with her mental health.

Bruno was unsure of how to respond to that, so he asked, "Elsa, who is Gwen to you?"

"My twin sister."

"But why does the government database say you are Gwen?"

"Someone did that. They turned me into Gwen. And the fact that she is dead makes it hard to prove we are two different people."

Elsa explained to him how she suddenly turned into Gwen overnight.

"If that's the case, we can prove it. Prove that," Bruno said.

Elsa looked at Bruno with interest. "So you believe me? You believe I am Elsa?"

"I do... I just believe you, I don't know why." He then took Elsa's hand into his. "Do you have a lawyer?"

"A friend is working on it."

"With your pregnancy, you won't be tried immediately. So we have time to prove that you are not what the database says you are." Bruno had faith in the system.

"Hopefully," Elsa shrugged.

There was a brief silence before Bruno said, "Elsa, after we get you out of here, let me take you to my place, okay?"

"You want me to stay at your house?"

"Yes."

Elsa narrowed her eyes and asked, "Why?"

He answered in a low voice, "I am starting to think that being around Jeremy is not good for you."

Dark Elsa didn't want to be taken care of by a man. Elsa was taken care of with Lui that week she stayed with him, maybe she would have agreed to stay with Bruno. But she wasn't Elsa now, was she?

Elsa whispered playfully, "What if he comes looking for me? What will you tell him?"

"I won't let him take you if you don't want to go with him."

Elsa held his hand back and said with a smile, "I'll think about it."

She won't really, her mind was already made up to NO. She didn't understand or see the need to stay with another man. But let him think she might.

"That's all I ask," Bruno smiled.

They talked a little more before Bruno bid her goodbye.

Elsa was just about to go back to her cell when she was informed she had another visitor.

This time, the person seated on the other side of the table was Jeremy Callahan.
