The Billionaire's Cursed Heiress -
Chapter 202: THE BOOK OF DEATH
Chapter 202: Chapter 202: THE BOOK OF DEATH
Two hours later, everyone was back at the mansion and all eyes were once again on Diamond.
When they arrived, they were all dying of curiosity, wanting to ask Diamond about the book. But when she alighted the car, they saw her holding the black book which emitted an ominous feeling which made everyone fear getting anywhere closer to her.
And now that they were inside, Diamond was standing while the rest of them were sitting and a mischievous smile was on her face as she held the book.
"As you can see, I returned the book. Unfortunately, you can’t touch it. Those who come into contact with it, your lives will be forfeit!" Diamond explained to the family, not lying to them at all.
There was a reason why the book was called the Book of Death. Of course, it wasn’t the legendary book of death that was talked about in the legends and myths, but rather a replica the dark faction put so much effort into making.
And all the effort put in so that they may take down Zara’s first incarnation.
Just how powerful was she to have made these people put so much effort and resources into this project?
No wonder the system was also interested.
When the family members heard that, they all looked at the book with dread and fear.
The book might be important, but not that important for them to sacrifice their lives.
"Child, now that you find the book. How are we going to deliver it?"
"Yes. Even if we use a fast jet, we will still be too late!"
Everyone once again descends into a moment of worry, recalling the issue of delivering the book. And who would dare carry that book with him or her when their lives were at risk?
Diamond smiled mysteriously upon hearing that.
"Don’t worry. I will deliver it shortly. Which leads me to the second issue I want to talk about!" she said mysteriously, as her gaze swept over the family members in her presence.
"Tell us whatever you need, we will give our all."
"Just say a word, and it shall be done!"
Diamond beamed upon hearing that.
"Perfect. I just need you to hold your horses for a brief moment. Whatever happens, you are not allowed to freak out. And in the process, wait for me patiently until I arrive!" she squinted her eyes, speaking encrypted words which made the others wonder what she was talking about.
"D_" However before Erica could ask Diamond, to let her elaborate further on what she meant, "Ah~~~~", a scream filled the room, and "thud" some people fainted as something extraordinary happened in front of her eyes.
"W-what, what just happened?" Erica mumbled a question as she patted her chest with shock while looking at the place where Diamond was standing a while ago and now no longer there.
Erica wasn’t the only one in shock. Even Donald was sweating buckets as he recalled how Diamond vanished from the spot a while earlier, without warning, nearly sending his poor soul out of his body.
Didn’t she know that they were old and could kick the bucket at any time?
As for the weak-hearted, they had fainted already.
Bradley, Mitchel and Raize all looked at each other, their bodies trembling, and fear coursing through their bodies.
They couldn’t help but recall Cecilia’s words at this moment. "Don’t mess with her. She is someone that we mustn’t offend!"
And her words were finally making sense, especially after seeing this spectacular scene.
While they were in the middle of collecting their thoughts, Diamond appeared once again in the same spot, but this time without the book in her hand.
"Ah~~~~~" shocking those who were still holding on to their sanity into screaming or fainting, adding the number of people who would need to be treated later.
Looking a bit fatigued, Diamond said to the startled people, uncaring of those who were unconscious on the floor and tiredly said, "The book has been delivered. Zara will live to see another day!"
Upon saying those words, Erica, who was feeling as if her soul was about to leave her body, pulled herself together as she looked at Diamond with a blooming smile on her face, happy with the news she had just received.
"Child, this ..... is what you said true?" the old lady’s voice trembled as she asked Diamond.
Diamond smiled at Erica and nodded. "Um. It is true. So, you can all rest now. I will be going upstairs. Don’t disturb me. I need to rest!" she added, her tone more of a statement, leaving no room for any negotiations before leaving.
If she waited for longer, who knows what these people would continue to ask? She had expended too much energy and needed to collect herself.
She couldn’t die just because she was feeling nosy. There were still people waiting for her out there. With that attitude, Diamond took the elevator upstairs and went to retire in her room.
As for the shenanigans outside, it was time for the family to step up. She can’t help them with everything.
After Diamond left, the Hansleys all looked at each other and, as if they could communicate using telepathy, they hurriedly took out their phones and started making calls.
It was a busy day and one that had everyone smiling. With all the worry and anxiety gone.

Meanwhile, in Rozinya, Lena and Cade paced up and down outside Zara’s room at the temple, waiting for news from Zara.
The appearance of Diamond with the book was already shocking, however when recalling everything that had happened so far, the shock didn’t last for long before all the worry veered towards her daughter.
She just wanted to hear from Zara if everything was fine now. And if they could remove the curse now.
She just wanted the curse to be gone as soon as possible.
And all she could do now was wait patiently for Zara to open that door and announce the next steps given to her.
There was never a day of rest in life.
