“Our lady is someone who can’t stand to see the Hunt sisters doing whatever they want.”
Jessica blinked. It was someone that the Hunt sisters had offended?
What did that person want her for?
She did not have the ability to suppress and retaliate against the Hunt sisters.
“You’ll know once you come with us, Ms. Yates.”
Jessica said, “I don’t even know who you are. Who knows what you’ll do to me if I follow you? You’re still wearing masks, so I can’t see what you look like. However, I’ll go with you if you take off your masks and let me take a photo to send to my husband.
“That way, you guys won’t get away with it if anything happens to me.”
Enter title…
“Our apologies, Ms. Yates, but we can’t take off our masks. If you don’t come with us, our lady will come over to invite you personally. You won’t like it if that happens. Our lady has a bad temper.”
“Save your breath and just knock her out,” the other man said impatiently.
When Jessica heard this, she immediately turned around and tried to run. However, just after taking two steps, she felt pain in the back of her neck and lost consciousness. She did not even have the opportunity to cry for help.
The man who knocked Jessica out tossed her into the black sedan, got into the car with his companion, and drove off.
Their car had no license plate.
However, after driving some distance away, they stopped at the side of the road, reattached the license plate they removed, and continued driving.
Jessica was knocked unconscious but soon woke up.
She immediately pounded the car door and demanded to be let out.
The man in the passenger seat turned his head to warn her, “You’d better behave, Ms.
Yates. You’ll die a miserable death if you make us angry.”
“W-What do you want with me?” she asked in a trembling voice.
Her trembling hands reached for her phone. Fortunately, it was still with her.
“Don’t think about calling the police or asking anyone for help. We can end your life at any time. Like I said, our lady just wants to see you. If you’re obedient and follow us to see her, I assure you that you’ll return to the Brown residence in one piece.
“Otherwise, we can kill off your whole family, both the Brown and the Yates families!”
That threat frightened Jessica, and she did not dare call the police or Hank. She said with a pale face, “I-I’ll go with you.”
When the man saw that she was afraid, he turned his head bad with satisfaction and said, “You just had to learn it the hard way.”
Jessica was silent.
The two men took her to an unfinished building on the outskirts, where weeds were overgrown, and rubbish littered the ground. All kinds of stench were mixed together, making her want to vomit.
Jessica really threw up.
One of the men waited for her to finish throwing up and handed her a mask.
Jessica hurriedly put on the mask, but she could still smell the stench through it. She quickly used her hand to cover her mouth and nose, then followed the two men into the incomplete building.
It was only after entering the building and away from the garbage dumps did she lower her hand from her mouth and nose. She looked around to survey the surrounding environment. There was no one living nearby. No one would find out even if she met with misfortune here and her body decomposed.
That thought caused another shudder to run down her spine.
She did not know who these men were. Since it was the Hunt sisters who offended them, they should find the Hunt sisters instead. Why did they come to her?
Enter title…
She was also enemies with the Hunt sisters.
“Don’t be afraid, Ms. Yates. I told them to bring you here because I wanted to talk to you about a deal. Let’s work together to get back at Mrs. York.”
An unfamiliar woman’s voice sounded from a room on the first floor, but her figure could not be seen.
Jessica did not dare walk into the room because the two men who brought her here were still staring at her.
She was slightly relieved upon hearing those words. It seemed like the other woman was targeting Serena.
“How should I address you, miss? What kind of deal are you talking about? I’m just a housewife who doesn’t have a job. My maiden family and my husband’s family don’t have social status, so I’m afraid I can’t help you.”
The woman chuckled. “There’s no need to be modest, Ms. Yates. I did my homework before deciding to work with you. You have a problem with Mrs. York too, right? It so happens that I also have a grudge against her. Since we both have a common enemy, why not work together?”
Jessica calmed her mind and asked, “What do you want me to do? Serena is the eldest missus of the York family now. Her man isn’t someone easy to mess with. My legs grow weak at the sight of him, and I don’t even dare talk to him. Asking me to do something to
Serena is the same as asking me to die.”
“I’m not telling you to go after Serena directly. You can start with Sonny.”
“Sonny?”
Jessica suddenly thought of Hank and Liberty’s son. Her heart trembled as she asked,
“You… want me to kill Sonny?”
After Hank and Liberty divorced, the Brown family’s attention to Sonny continued to grow. Olivia repeatedly called Sonny the only one who could continue the Brown family line, saying that he was precious to the family. In fact, she was just mocking Jessica for not getting pregnant despite being with Hank for so long.
Jessica hated it and was thankful that she helped Liberty by persuading Hank to give up custody of Sonny. Otherwise, she would die of anger if she saw the Brown family spoiling Sonny all day.
However, no matter how upset Jessica was at how well the Brown family treated Sonny, she never thought about harming the child before.
“I didn’t tell you to kill him. Listen and I’ll tell you my plan. Don’t you in-laws want to take
Sonny back from Liberty? What you have to do is convince your husband and mother-inlaw to take Sonny back to your family, 1
“Then, you and Hank can take Sonny out to a crowded place like a zoo or an amusement park. It’s easy for children to get lost there. I’ll arrange for someone to take
Sonny away. That way, it’ll just seem like you lost him by accident. No one will suspect that you deliberately harmed him.”
“You want to kidnap Sonny? If you want to get back at Serena, then go after her. Why would you kidnap Sonny? He’s an innocent child who doesn’t know anything. If your men are rough and end up killing him…”
“Wouldn’t that be better? Without Sonny, the son you give birth to in the future will be the only one carrying on the Brown family line, and all the assets of the Brown family will belong to your son. Although you don’t have many assets now, as long as you agree to cooperate with me, I’ll arrange for your husband to join a large company outside the city as a manager. He’ll have an annual salary of more than a million.
“As long as your husband does a good job for a decade or two, your family will have a fortune left for your son to inherit. There’ll be no need to share the inheritance with
Sonny. How great is that?”
Jessica was pale. Who was the woman in that room and how could she treat human life so flippantly? Was she from the underworld?
“Sonny… Sonny is still a child. Besides, his custody was given to Liberty. Hank only needs to pay three thousand a month for child support, which will end when Sonny turns eighteen. Hank won’t need to pay if Sonny wants to buy a house or car in the future. He has no way of fighting for the family assets.”
“People’s hearts change. The only way you’ll be sure that he won’t compete with your son for the family fortune is if he’s dead.”
“But I don’t have a son… I don’t even have a daughter.”
