How did you find her?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could Mystical Sect’s abilities truly be that immense?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could one photograph reveal so much?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could this be possible?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That person clearly said this method wouldn’t be easily discovered…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wyatt, however, had no time to pay attention to her reaction; he shakily clung to his tablet and fervently asked,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Master Jennings, where is Elsa now? Is she okay?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Scarlett Jennings, hearing this, just looked down and opened an interface.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone saw that it was a very blank chat interface, from which they couldn’t even discern what kind of software it was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, an address appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Scarlett Jennings said, “She is at this address now; you can go there.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a pause, she added, “The police should also be on their way now.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wyatt didn’t have the time to ask why the police were involved; upon seeing the address, he swiftly grabbed his car keys and headed for the door with his tablet in hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, as he was about to leave, he seemed to think of something and turned to look at Clara.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clara felt uneasy, “What are you doing?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, she knew what Wyatt intended to do.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wyatt tied her tightly in the room and locked the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he found Elsa, he would also have to find a way to ask Master Jennings to help swap their souls back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, until he returned, she had to stay put.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wyatt’s actions were not hidden from the viewers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many in the livestream couldn’t help but laugh at his caution, calling him prudent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If TV drama protagonists had this level of meticulousness, those villains clinging to life wouldn’t have the chance to escape and return to cause trouble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wyatt didn’t have the mood to interact with netizens; after ensuring she wouldn’t escape, he hurriedly drove towards the upscale neighborhood where Elsa was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Along the way, he followed the requests of viewers and the production team by keeping the livestream open, just switching it from the tablet to his phone for convenience.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The car sped to the entrance of the neighborhood; usually, neighborhoods with such high security were hard to enter without the owner’s permission, and Wyatt hadn’t yet thought of an excuse to get in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, he saw the gate slowly open.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wyatt turned his head to see a young man waving at him enthusiastically from inside the guardroom, holding his phone up,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is it Mr. A from ‘Inspiration’?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wyatt then noted the screen on the other man’s phone displayed the split-screen of the ‘Inspiration’ livestream, and he immediately felt a surge of joy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The security officer jogged over, gesturing for him to drive in and whispered,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The household you’re looking for is straight ahead, then turn right, but there’s a security door downstairs. I can’t open that with my clearance.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He even seemed a bit apologetic as he said this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wyatt was just about to ask if there was a way to have someone else open the door when he heard Scarlett Jennings’ voice on his phone,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Just go ahead; someone will open the door for you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wyatt assumed she meant Elsa, and his heart leapt with joy; he thanked Scarlett Jennings and the security for letting him through and quickly drove inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reaching the building, the lobby’s security door opened automatically, just as Scarlett had mentioned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He got in the elevator and went up to the address he was given.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a single-unit apartment building, and outside the elevator was just one large door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wyatt quickly stepped forward; before he could knock, the door clicked open from the inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He entered with his phone and found the lavishly decorated flat eerily silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cautiously, he made his way through and finally found the woman from the photograph in a closed room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the sight of him, the woman seemed unable to believe it, staring blankly at him without daring to make a sound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Until Wyatt called her hoarsely, “Elsa?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman’s eyes immediately reddened, and tears flowed down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like a dam bursting, all the anguish and sorrow she had endured spilled out in that moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wyatt! I’m Elsa… sob… I’m Elsa…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wyatt practically sprinted over to her, pulling her into a fierce embrace as she shuddered in his arms, not giving him time to think.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the woman crying hoarsely in his arms, he felt both heartbroken and relieved, and could only keep comforting her,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Elsa, don’t be afraid. I’m here, I’m here, don’t be scared… Elsa, I’ve found a skilled master; she’ll definitely help you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elsa’s tears fell more fiercely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She hadn’t expected that he would actually come to find her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though she had turned into another person’s appearance, even when she herself didn’t know who she was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All this time, she tried to explain to whomever she could that she wasn’t Gaia Dixon; she begged them, hoping they would help her escape.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But no one believed her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one was willing to help.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They treated her like a mental patient; the look in their eyes was full of nothing but sympathy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before this, Elsa had nearly reached the point of despair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if recalling something, Elsa hurriedly stopped crying, sniffling as she reminded,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wyatt, it was Seth Houghton, Seth Houghton who locked me up here. He says I am his wife, that he has gone mad… You must call the police…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wyatt’s eyes trembled, “Seth Houghton?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wyatt knew Seth Houghton.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among Elsa’s many suitors, Seth Houghton was the most obsessed and unreasonable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He pursued Elsa for two years, not giving up even when he knew she had a boyfriend.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had tried every way to reject him, but he never relented.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not until she married Wyatt did Seth finally disappear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elsa thought he had finally given up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But upon seeing him again, she found herself turned into his wife!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And legally married at that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And she hadn’t expected Seth’s seemingly gentle demeanor to hide such a demonic heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“He used some method to swap me into his wife’s body, kept me imprisoned, demanded that I never leave his side.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elsa said, tears falling once more, then gently pulled up her sleeve.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wyatt’s pupils contracted sharply upon seeing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her thin arms were riddled with purple bruises, shocking to the eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elsa’s voice, choked with despair,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I wanted him to let me go, he refused, instead beating me… He wouldn’t let me reject him, nor let me escape… He even… broke my leg.”\u003C\u002Fp>",1186,"2026-06-10T07:18:23.777Z",1,"novelbin.me","55ce1cf8061cf4882ef4c54cf80b87203b1eac87ca96c4fcb2e1a4fbc64350a5","the-fake-heiress-turns-out-to-be-a-true-tycoon-chapter-253","the-fake-heiress-turns-out-to-be-a-true-tycoon-chapter-251",1286,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-fake-heiress-turns-out-to-be-a-true-tycoon-cover.jpg"]
