Summer arrived alone. She stood before Rachel, who was tightly bound, a cold and mocking smile playing on her lips.
"How did you find me?" Rachel asked, fear evident in her eyes.
"I had someone tail Dexter's men for a whole week before finally discovering your location. It was quite troublesome," Summer replied indifferently. She had put in great effort to figure out the bodyguards’ shift patterns. Only when they had all left to eat could she take advantage of the situation.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Why are you here? To take your anger out on me? Where is Josie?" Rachel had waited for Josie for several days, but she had given up hope by then.
"You truly are a fool, unable to escape your poverty-stricken mindset," Summer said, leisurely approaching Rachel. "You nearly got her killed, yet you still hope she will save you?" "That's impossible... She must cand findif she wants to know anything about Paul," Rachel shook her head, unwilling to believe it.
"Don't delude yourself. She has already left." "Where did she go?" "Who knows? All | know is that she's no longer in Wavery." Summer suddenly pulled out a knife from her pocket and pressed it against Rachel's throat. "You know what? Last night, Dexter was speeding on Second Highway and got into an accident. He's still in critical condition." Rachel's eyes widened in shock. "You're here to eliminate me?" "This is a golden opportunity, so naturally, | cto silence you!" Summer pressed the knife harder. "Keep opposing me. I'd like to see if you still have a chance to reveal the truth!" Overwhelmed by fear, Rachel broke out in a cold sweat. "You can't do this! Summer, I've done so much for you! You can't kill me!" "You ruined Josie. Do you really think the Olsen family won't seek revenge? If you betrayat that time, it'll be too late forto kill you!" With a forceful thrust, Summer drove the tip of the knife an inch into Rachel's neck.
"No!" Rachel roared. "Summer, | know where Edward is! You can't kill me!" Summer abruptly stopped. "What did you just say?" "| said... | said | know where Edward is!" Rachel swallowed hard. "Even if you kill me, what good would it do? The Olsen family will never be yours. Even if Josie is gone, do you think Mark would hand the family's assets to you? In the end, everything will still be in Laura's hands. What could you possibly gain?" She spoke rapidly, fearing that Summer would continue exerting force.
Upon hearing that, Summer narrowed her eyes. "Why should | believe you?" "| learned about it from Dexter when | was with him. It's absolutely true!" Rachel looked at her. "Arnold would never abandon his father. As long as you find Edward, you can undoubtedly find him too. At that time, the two of you can still collaborate. There's definitely a chance to turn things around!" Perhaps it was the fear of death that made her mind exceptionally clear.
Summer was skeptical. "If you dare lie to me..." "No, I'm not lying! | swear! As long as you save me, | will tell you the lead. I still have value, don't I? Otherwise, you'll truly be at a dead end. You need me, Summer! Instead of waiting for death, why not trustjust this once?" Rachel gently persuaded.
