NovelEnglishChapter 418: Joanna's eyes narrowed as she stepped closer to Kallie. Without a word, she signaled the bodyguards, who immediately forced Kallie to the floor. Joanna then pressed her heel down hard on the back of Kallie's hand, using all her strength.
The pain shot through Kallie like a lightning bolt, causing her whole body to tremble. Her face drained of color, and the searing pain soon turned to numbness as she felt her hand go limp under Joanna's relentless pressure.

She stared down at Kallie and sneered, “Who said anything about calling the police?" Joanna released Kallie's hand, crouched down, and pinched her chin firmly.

With an icy voice, Joanna declared, "You murdered my mother. I can't just let you walk away. You'll never leave the Martel estate alive. Don't worry. Your murder of my mother is safe with me, but this place will be your prison for life. Let's see how you manage to charm anyone now."

Even amidst the clutter of the basement, Kallie's beauty shone through, undiminished. This sparked a deep- seated jealousy in Joanna. Approaching Kallie with a sinister grin, Joanna remarked, "It seems beautiful women are treated differently, aren't they? Men are ready to do whatever it takes for you. Such a shame, really." "What are you getting at?" Kallie responded, her voice rough and hoarse from not having spoken or drunk any water for an extended period.

While confined, Joanna had occasionally sent her food, but the dry cakes provided were accompanied by no water, making them nearly impossible to swallow without hydration.
