NovelEnglish"Christopher and Taylor are both dead. Who else could be after her?" A sudden realization hit Justin. His eyes grew wide. "Grant and... Clarice?" He recalled how Grant had stayed up late in the living room instead of going to bed.
It seemed intentional-a calculated move, a silent challenge! "It has to be them. I can't think of anyone else who would want to harm Yvonne," Justin said.
Bella's voice quivered as she said, "Yvonne had been working for Christopher for years and probably went to Meridan multiple times to meet up with the Boss, who's actually Grant.
"Grant refused to see anyone besides Christopher. But after all those encounters, ssigns would inevitably be left behind. Yvonne likely figured out that Grant is the Boss, and Grant probably recognized Yvonne despite her changed appearance from plastic surgery." Justin's expression darkened as he said, "So, to get rid of any risks, he decided to silence her and wipe out all evidence." Bella's eyes glistened with tears as she spoke, “But we've already seen through his facade and the shady things he's done. Why would he still go after Yvonne?" Justin's expression grew cold. "Because Drew cares deeply for Yvonne. She has becpart of the Thompson family, like one of your own." Bella froze in shock.

"This is exactly like my elder brother. Back then, he played the hero card to guilt-tripfor over 20 years. Now, he's trying to exploit someone else's vulnerability all over again. After all, it's a trick that has always worked for him." Bella grew anxious and clutched his hands. “But... Do you think she will be alive? If Yvonne is valuable to them, maybe they wouldn't hurt her!" Her tiny hands were cold yet so soft. Justin instinctively squeezed her hands, holding them firmly.
Suddenly, a phone rang and ruined the tension.
Bella picked it up and looked at the screen. Her heart immediately sank.
"Who's on the line?" Justin asked, his gaze locked onto her.
"It's Drew..." Bella's voice cracked, tears about to roll down her cheeks.
Justin looked away and said, "Answer it. This isn't something that can be hidden. You know that better than I do." Bella rubbed her eyes, her hands trembling as she answered the call. "Drew..." "Bella! Why did Yvonne drive out alone in the middle of the night? Kve been trying to reach her, but her phone can't be reached. Can you get in touch with her?!" Content belongs to en.kikistoriesDrew was usually calm and composed, even in the face of disaster. But now he sounded furious and worried that he could not reach Yvonne.
"Drew, how did you know she went out?" "I installed a tracking device in her car. If she leaves Hatchbay, I get a notification immediately!" Drew sounded more anxious. "I saw her car heading toward Savrow, in the direction of the mountains. Why would she go there?!" Content belongs to en.kikistories'The mountains?' The couple exchanged a look, speaking in unison, "Pivotage?!" After Yvonne was knocked unconscious, she was carried to a car by two men and brought away.
Clarice hopped into her luxury sedan, the warm air blasting as she settled in.
"Ugh, gross! What rotten luck!" Clarice scowled as she wiped the blood off her fingers with disinfectant wipes.

"Do you want to die?!" Clarice shouted furiously.
The driver stammered, "S-sorry, sorry, Ms. Amaryllis!" "What happened?!" "T-There's a car in front blocking us!" Clarice rubbed her nose and looked out the windshield. Her expression immediately froze.
Under the blinding brightness of the headlights, Jace stepped out of his car.
His face was set in a stern expression as he made his way toward the front of her car.
