For most people, a night passed in the blink of an eye.
But for Nelson and Logan, it had been a torturous and seemingly endless ordeal.
Finally, they waited until morning.
The first person to discover the bruised and trembling Nelson and Logan was the equipment room teacher.
“Why is this baseball bat on the door?” the teacher muttered as he removed the baseball bat wedged against t he opened it, light flooded in, revealing two boys huddled together in the corner, fast asleep.
The teacher shouted, “Hey, what class are you from? Wake up!”
door. When
A couple of light nudges stirred the brothers awake. As soon as they saw the teacher and the sunlight streaming through the window, they burst into tears and ran out of the equipment room.
Their first stop was to confront Elmer.
“Why didn’t you come to save us? We were locked in the equipment room all night!”
“Ungrateful traitor! You abandoned us!”
Facing their fury, Elmer blinked nonchalantly and replied, “Why didn’t you just call me? I didn’t check my phone after going home yesterday.”
The Durham brothers thought it was an excuse.
“Your phone is connected to the equipment room’s camera! Don’t tell come!”
us you
see the footage! You just didn’t dare to
“We trusted you, and you left us behind. Fine! From now on, we’re done with you!”
With that, Nel
and Logan stormed off.
They cleaned themselves up and changed into fresh clothes.
Tiffany had just stepped onto the campus when she found her path blocked by two well–groomed young men.
They said, “We lost the bet, and we accept the consequences.”
Since the Durham brothers weren’t in the same class as Tiffany, they hadn’t interacted much before.
Tiffany raised an eyebrow, apparently surprised that the two bumbling fools from last night’s prank looked somewhat presentable.
She didn’t say anything, so the brothers asked again, “We lost. What do you want us to do
Tiffany replied, “Be decent human beings.”
The Durham brothers were stunned. Their first reaction was to feel insulted.
Tiffany arched her brow and said plainly, “Elmer’s character is retten. You’d do well not to follow in his footsteps.”
In other words, she was telling them to act like decent people and stop resorting to bullying.
Thinking back to their stunt last night, it had been dangerously realistic.

Chapter 600.
The surround sound effects, chilling audio, and a perfectly creepy atmosphere were unsettling. If someone with a weaker heart or nerves had encountered it, things could have gone terribly wrong.
Nelson and Logan never expected Tiffany to let them off so easily.
They had prepared themselves for mockery and revenge, convinced that acknowledging the bet would lead to Tiffany’s relentless ridicule. But it didn’t happen.
The brothers exchanged glances, both seeing the same look of embarrassment and shame reflected in each other’s eyes.
In the past two days, Melody had been driven to the brink of insanity.
Since the day her Obedience Poison was destroyed by Elmer, she had caused a commotion at school and ended up being taken to the police station by the security guards.
From there, the police contacted the husband of the body she currently inhabited. What awaited her was a relentless series of beatings from him and her in–laws.
Beaten into submission, she had moments where she entertained thoughts of taking everyone down with her.
But now wasn’t the time. Melody had to endure, pretending to be insane day by day.
Until today, when she finally managed to escape that miserable cage. Her first move was to find Lorenzo.
With her Obedience Poison gone, if Lorenzo didn’t help her soon, her life would be
as good as over.
After considerable effort, she finally met Lorenzo. Tears brimming in her eyes, Melody pleaded, “Lorenzo, please help me! If you’re willing to help me this time, I’ll do anything for you once I’m back in my body!”
He said, “Even sleep with me?”
His voice was lecherous, but Melody could only nod. “Yes!”
Lorenzo replied, “Alright.”
His voice lowered. “The boss has been busy lately, so I’m taking a risk to help you. But remember, once you’re back in your body, you’d better take good care of me.”
Melody nodded. “Yes, thank you, Lorenzo.”
Sniffling, Melody clenched her fists and said, “I can’t wait two more weeks. I want to switch back now! Lorenzo, I beg you. Help me catch that bitch who stole my body!”
Wilma had been living the good life these past few days.
She had luxurious skincare products that she could have only dreamed of before. Just touching her face felt like a treat.
Though her bank account had been drained, the villa was filled with valuables. She had already sold off a few items, easily pocketing thousands of dollars.
That evening, humming a tune, she was about to step into the bathroom for a bath when the sound of the door unlocking caught her attention.
The door opened, and Elmer entered her bedroom, his face alig it with excitement.

Being summoned by his crush to her home, he was so thrilled he didn’t know what to do. “Is it true? Can I stay tonight?”
Earlier that day, “Melody” had thrown him a flirtatious glance, her intentions unmistakable.
So, here he was. Pushing open the unlocked door, he found “Melody” about to take a bath.
Wilma, in her thirties, had her own intentions. Without overthinking, she gave him a sultry look and said, “Join me?”
Elmer was overjoyed. “Yes!”
The two of them entered the bathroom, sparks flying.
Just as things were heating up, the bathroom door was suddenly pushed open, and two men in black stood there, staring at them with expressionless faces.

Wilma woke up groggily to the sensation of being thrown into a vehicle.
She didn’t know who these men were, but her instincts screamed danger. While pretending to be asleep, she overheard one of the men in black said, “Don’t worry, Lorenzo. We’ve got her. We’re on our way back now.”
That name rang a bell. It was the man Melody had pinned her hopes on the day of the body swap.
‘Shit!‘ Wilma instantly realized what was happening, and a sense of dread and fear began to consume her.
She hadn’t enjoyed this new life enough. She couldn’t accept being forced back.
At that moment, a fiery determination lit up in her eyes. She suddenly shot up from the back seat, flung the car door open, and jumped out.

Meanwhile, at Luna Villa. June handed Tiffany a cup of coffee and asked, “Miss, Wilma is a piece of work. Shouldn’t we do something about her?”
Tiffany replied, “No rush. She’ll come to us on her own.”
June was increasingly baffled by Tiffany’s thought process. Just as she was about to express her confusion, the doorbell rang. A servant came over to report, “Miss Kelley, there’s someone at the door. It looks like Wilma!”
