Chapter 474
Ysabelle was simmering in anger and she taunted Meredith, “Let me remind you something, Meredith. If you choose not to believe me today, you‘ll regret it for the rest of
your life!”
“Edith, you know better how I feel for you, do you not? Why would you allow some abductor to tell you how you should feel?” Josial stared coldly at Ysabelle and said, “The one
who really wanted to hurt you is the one who forced you to drink the drug and who is holding a knife to your neck, do you understand me?”
Meredith was once again convinced by Josiah.
She knew how well Josiah had treated her and as for Ysabelle…
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMeredith took a glance at the knife on her neck and asked nonchalantly, “Can you let go of me now?’ I want to go home.”
Ysabelle was silent.
Ysabelle wondered if Meredith was really as mentally unstable as she claimed to be. Since Meredith chose to not believe her, Ysabelle decided that she did not have to waste
any more time to convince her.
Ysabelle pressed the knife closer to Meredith’s neck and cackled, “Meredith Leighton, do you really think that I brought you here just to tell you things?”
Josial was getting anxious and nervous, but he did not dare to act recklessly.
Holding back the pain, Meredith replied, “I know. Not only did you want to ruin my relationship with Joe, but you also want to
get rid of our baby.” “Is that all?” Ysabelle scoffed and added, “Would you like me to tell you what‘s the last one?”
“I am going to kill you and drag you into hell with me!” Ysabelle laughed sinisterly and seethed, “In any case, I won‘t be able to get out of this alive! Do you really think that I‘ll le
away alive?”
The wound on Meredith‘s neck was getting deeper and the pain was slowly getting unbearable.
Gnawing on her lips, Meredith tried to get a look at Josiah who was downstairs.
Ysabelle looked at Meredith then looked at Josiah and asked, “What‘s wrong? Do you
want dear Joe to save you? Sure, but he would first have to crawl over here, and then I‘ll let him take
you.”
Ysabelle pointed toward a dark and narrow corridor.
The narrow corridor was built using wooden plates, joining the opposite building with the building that Meredith and Ysabelle were at. Because the place was long abandoned
and not maintained, the wooden corridor was shaking and looked like it was about to crumble any time.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt would be dangerous for even a small and light-weighted woman like Meredith to walk on it, let alone a man like Josiah.
Especially when Josiah looked up at the corridor from where he stood, under the dim lights, the corridor looked extremely dangerous.
Looking at Josiah‘s expression, Ysabelle pulled into a smug smile. “What‘s wrong? I thought you
loved Edith a lot? Are you planning to give up on saving her now?” Josiah turned and looked at Ysabelle. With a cold expression, he asked, “Are you really going to let Edith go
if I walk over the corridor?”
“Well, of course. Why would I let such a courageous man die? I would surely respect and admire you a lot to let you die just like that.” “How can I trust you?”
“Mister Josiah…” Ysabelle scoffed, “are you trying to negotiate with me? Do you even have the right to do so?”
“So, you have no plans on keeping your word.”
“You‘re right. I was just messing with you. So what? What can you do about it?” “You–” Josiah felt rage thrumming in his veins.
Ysabelle felt exhilarated to see how Josiah wanted to kill her but could not.
She then scoffed coldly at Meredith, “See that? The man you trust the most is worried that he‘s going to fall over from the corridor and he‘s not willing to save you.“
