Chapter 1017 They’re the Same Matter!
The person paused briefly before answering, "You'll know tomorrow. Don't worry. I won't leave you to
perish. You're useful to me."
The voice was tinged with impatience, but the person did not hang up immediately like before.
Noticing that, Linda quickly asked, "Is there something you need me to do? I'm begging you – can you
please tell me what's going on?"
She suspected that the abnormal behaviors of her parents and the mysterious person were related to
the same matter, yet she was completely clueless!

The person uttered calmly, "If we fail this time, I'll have to get you a new identity more prominent than
your current one, so you can act more proficiently. Are you ready for that?"
There was a sudden change in Linda's expression. No! I don't want to become someone else! I'm
Linda; I just want to be myself!
Nonetheless, she dared not retort to the person or express her feelings. She feared the person would
completely abandon her or even sabotage her tomorrow if she refused to obey.
She inhaled deeply and asked, "What identity will you give me?"
"You'll know later. Just be prepared." With that, the person ended the call.

Linda's expression turned ghastly, but there was nothing she could do. Out of desperation, she secretly
crept to her parent's room, hoping to eavesdrop on their conversation. Little did she know that Norman
and Rose had left the house.
Rose's face was as pale as a sheet as she sat in the car. Norman wore a sullen look too. He turned to
stare at Rose with his eyes filled with remorse. "Dear, I've let you down…"
Rose shook her head with a smile. "It's okay. Given the current situation, the best solution is for me to
go. The family needs you. You used to be reckless; please control yourself when I'm not around. Linda
is not doing well emotionally too. Please keep an eye on her and don't let her stick to her old ways.
Keep a low profile during this period. We can think of a way in the future."
Tears streamed down Norman's face. "I'm such a useless man. How can I let my wife become the

scapegoat… Dear, I've let you down…"
Rose started sobbing uncontrollably too. Shaking her head, she hugged Norman and sighed, "Please
don't say that. This is not the end. I'm just doing so to buy us more time. There are still chances. You
must control yourself and Linda. Be patient and do not easily trust others. We will think of a way to
make a comeback."
The sorrow in Norman's eyes became more intense. "If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't
have laid a finger on Nelson. Then, we wouldn't have lost everything…"
After that, Norman was at a loss for words and could only weep remorsefully in silence.
Rose's voice was cracking. "We reap what we sow, but it's too late to regret it now. We've belittled
Elisa. Little did we expect she would cause such big chaos."
