lody Thorne casually brushed the hair behind her as frost began to form in her clear eyes. "Where’s Timmy?"
"I didn’t expect you to co and rescue Timmy yourself just to curry favor with Jared Quinn. I really don’t know if you’re stupid or just naturally brainless," Ivy pointed in a direction. "He’s over there, but whether you can take him back depends on your abilities."
Originally, she didn’t plan to kidnap Timmy, but when she couldn’t find lody Thorne and Timmy happened to be in the villa, she tricked him out by saying lody Thorne was hit by a car and was in the hospital. She didn’t expect him to believe it and co running out.
lody Thorne looked over in the direction Ivy pointed, seeing a man holding a child on the other side of the scenic bridge.
"Did you knock him out?" lody Thorne’s clear eyes looked like they held a blade of ice.
"Didn’t knocking him out save him from fidgeting around?" Ivy walked toward her, patting her shoulder dismissively. "Since you’re dressed so beautifully to send yourself to death today, I’d feel guilty not sending you off. Go on, step over there, and when I leave, you jump. I guarantee Timmy will be returned safely. If you don’t jump, then it’ll be him who falls."
"Even if I’m dead, I won’t let you go," lody Thorne lifted her lips. "Even in a dream, I would kill you."
"Then I’ll be waiting," Ivy took out a pair of handcuffs and cuffed her hands. "You’ve been making headlines for so long, don’t worry, in the coming days you still will. An unknown actress feeling guilty for causing Ivy’s death jumps into the sea to commit suicide. How’s that for a headline?"
lody Thorne’s gaze swept the surroundings. This was the ocean. As long as she could stay afloat for a few seconds after falling, she wouldn’t die.
"Oh, are you scared?" Ivy’s hand brushed her forehead, covered in sweat. "I didn’t expect you to be so afraid of the sea. Looks like I’ve chosen a good place for you today!"
lody Thorne worked hard to calm the terror pounding in her chest. She wouldn’t die, she definitely wouldn’t die.
Ivy pushed her forward; she had checked that no one would swim here, and hardly anyone ca because the water wasn’t deep, but the seaweed was especially dense. Falling down with her hands locked was harder than climbing to the sky.
She pushed lody Thorne to the edge. "I’ll count to three. If you don’t jump, it’ll be Timmy who falls."
Will he co?
lody Thorne glanced down at the sea. When she called Jared Quinn the first ti, the call connected. The second ti, it didn’t go through. The third ti, she sent a ssage with the address.
She wasn’t foolish enough to co alone, but she didn’t know if Jared Quinn would see her ssage.
And Caleb...
Would that guy save her?
Just as lody Thorne was thinking, her phone started vibrating...
Ivy had already distanced herself, so she didn’t notice. All she felt was that lody Thorne was going to die, and lody Thorne would soon disappear from Jared Quinn’s side. The position of Mrs. Quinn was still hers.
It was always supposed to be hers. Why, after liking Jared Quinn for so many years, did she just end up marrying him because the Thorne Family had troubles and she had nowhere else to go?
Hers, all of it was hers...
"Three," Ivy raised her sinister red lips, retreating step by step.
"Two," she was already off the shore.
"One," the last word was almost shouted, bellowed with her voice full of hatred.
