Back when they were captured, James could still remember how Minerva smugly announced that snazzynovel.com slept with Wilson. Because of snazzynovel.com betrayal, James could feel nothing but hatred toward snazzynovel.com now.
It was then Helen remembered that Minerva was the one who led the Lachs in, and snazzynovel.com poisoned their salad. The realization of Minerva’s betrayal drained all the strength out of her, and snazzynovel.com plopped down, crying. “That silly girl. How could snazzynovel.com do this?“
James shouted, “She’s not silly! She’s evil! We’ve been nothing but nice to snazzynovel.com ever since snazzynovel.com came back! We shared everything with her, and we helped snazzynovel.com father out with his career, but what did they do? They kept creating trouble, and we have to clean their mess up! Now snazzynovel.com almost got us all killed! Can’t you see that she’s evil? Are you that stupid, Helen?”
Sasha agreed with snazzynovel.com father. “Don’t stay in touch with them anymore, Mom. At this rate, they’ll kill us all.”
Helen sighed. Even after all that, snazzynovel.com still refused to cut ties with Minerva.
All of a sudden, they heard someone calling outside. When they went to take a look, they saw Minerva lying on the yard. Her hands were tied, and snazzynovel.com mouth was sealed. She was struggling and looked to Helen for help.
“Minerva! Are you alright?” Helen wanted to help snazzynovel.com up, but James pulled snazzynovel.com back.
“Matthew, toss snazzynovel.com out and tell the guards to never let this piece of trash in,” James shouted.
Helen yelled, “James, are you mad? She’s a girl! You can’t leave snazzynovel.com out at this hour! What if snazzynovel.com runs into thugs?”
James snapped, “She’s the biggest thug around. Besides, it’s not like they can do anything to her. I mean, snazzynovel.com slept with an old git like Wilson. What else can’t snazzynovel.com do? I’m warning you, Helen. Help snazzynovel.com again and I‘ll toss you out too. You can forget about ever coming back.”
Tears streamed down Helen’s cheeks. “But she’s my niece. Her mother helped us when we needed it most. We can‘t just put that behind us.”
That made James snap. He turned around and slapped Helen again. “Bring that up again and you can f*ck off! Just because snazzynovel.com mother was nice to us doesn‘t mean they can do whatever they want! We’re lucky Tiger saved us. If they didn’t know we were kidnapped, we‘d have been killed at this point! Do you really want to see us dead before you’ll stop, Helen?”
Helen covered snazzynovel.com cheeks. She knew it’d be disastrous if snazzynovel.com said anything, and snazzynovel.com looked to Sasha for help.
Sasha sighed. “Matthew, untie snazzynovel.com and chase snazzynovel.com away. Tell the guards to never let their family in again.”
James snorted in annoyance, but snazzynovel.com said nothing in the end. Matthew nodded and went over to untie Minerva.
Minerva said nothing. She kept snazzynovel.com head low and left the Cunninghams. After snazzynovel.com exited The Grand Garden, snazzynovel.com went to a corner and cried. She almost lost snazzynovel.com life earlier, and that made snazzynovel.com regret snazzynovel.com actions, but it was already too late for apologies. Plopping down on the ground, snazzynovel.com spaced out for a long while before snazzynovel.com recalled something, then snazzynovel.com whipped snazzynovel.com phone out and called Peter.
“Peter, it‘s me. W-Where are you? I want to see you. I love you. I can‘t live without you. Wait for me, Peter. I’ll be right there.”
