"Open the door."
"It’s too late. Let’s just talk like this."
William Guillen stared at her expressionless face without blinking, then suddenly laughed. "Do you really plan to talk to like this?"
"What’s wrong with that?"
Of course not. He had to get her out before Thomas Shannon arrived. Otherwise, if she got scared, how would he explain it to her parents? After all, it was a fact that she was harboring the maniac. If she stayed here and Thomas Shannon ca later, she’d just beco cannon fodder. He understood Thomas Shannon’s temper; the reason he’d called him was to give her a chance. This was her only chance. If she missed it, even he couldn’t guarantee what would happen next.
"Fluffy, open the door."
Fluffy Zane hugged her arms, her patience reaching its limit. "If you’re not going to say anything, then forget it."
As she turned to leave, William Guillen called after her, "Fluffy..."
When he didn’t say anything more for a long mont, Fluffy Zane turned around doubtfully, only to see William Guillen crouched down in pain, one hand clutching his stomach, looking extrely uncomfortable.
Her heart skipped a beat. She walked to the door, sowhat dazed. "You... Are you okay?"
"Stomachache..."
"Do you have any dicine?"
William Guillen struggled to shake his head. Fluffy Zane’s face paled. "Then what should we do?"
"Take to the hospital."
Fluffy Zane nodded, the realization dawning on her slowly. "Right, the hospital. Let’s go to the hospital imdiately."
She opened the door and was about to help him stand up when William Guillen grabbed her hand and pushed her into the car.
He walked around the front of the car and got into the driver’s seat. He quickly engaged the central lock, turned the car around, and drove off.
Fluffy Zane slowly ca to her senses, only then realizing he had tricked her!
She glared at William Guillen angrily. "What on earth are you doing?"
"Is the maniac at your house?" William Guillen countered, ignoring her question.
"How do you know?"
"It’s not who knows; it’s Thomas Shannon. He’ll be here soon to get her. If you don’t want him to take his anger out on you, you’d better leave with first."
Fluffy Zane wasn’t worried about herself; her only concern was for Sophie Sullivan. What will happen to Sophie? She’s still resting, completely unaware. If Thomas Shannon takes her away later, will she be in danger?
Thinking of this, Fluffy Zane imdiately leaned over, trying to grab the steering wheel. "Go back! Take back quickly!"
William Guillen slamd on the brakes. He turned his head and growled, "Are you trying to get yourself killed?"
"I can’t let the maniac be caught! Take back now!"
William Guillen sneered, grabbing her jaw with one hand. "Tell , when did you beco so close with the maniac, huh?"
Fluffy Zane clenched her teeth. "It’s none of your business."
"None of my business?" William Guillen laughed coldly. "If it were none of my business, do you know what kind of state you’d be in by now, after being whipped?"
"..."
"Do you think Thomas Shannon would have spared you if it weren’t for my sake?"
"..."
"The maniac escaped, and by helping her, you beca an accomplice, compounding your offense. Do you really think you can get away with it?"
"Stop it! Don’t say any more!" Fluffy Zane covered her ears, not wanting to listen any longer.
William Guillen rolled down the car window and lit a cigarette. Glancing at her sideways, he said, "Don’t even think about helping the maniac. By helping her escape, you’re making an enemy of Thomas Shannon. There’s no good outco in this for you, understand?"
Fluffy Zane closed her eyes. She had no ti to worry about herself right now; she was more concerned about Sophie getting into trouble...
「Outside the Zane Family’s villa」
More than a dozen black Lincolns pulled up, their headlights illuminating the entrance as if it were dayti.
The n in black moved with precision and uniformity, surrounding the villa so tightly that no one could get through.
