A Cue for Love novel Chapter 1107

Chapter 1107 A Psychological Battle

Zophie brought Natalie to the container where Yumi was at. It was humid in the container, and there was a lightbulb illuminating the inside. However, it was dim, and it could not light up all the corners of the container.

Natalie still caught sight of Yumi, who was curled up in the corner. She was tied up with nylon ropes, and she had duct tape over her mouth. The moment she locked eyes with Yumi, tears welled up in Natalie’s eyes.

Yumi was younger than her four biological children, but because she was the last member of the Jankovich family, she had to be far more mature than someone her age should be.

Yumi saw Natalie, too, and for a moment, she stiffened. She then began shaking her body like a frustrated tiger cub, seemingly trying to free herself from the ropes that were restraining her.

“Mm… Mm…”

Zophie knew Yumi was trying to tell Natalie to leave the place immediately. It was at that moment she felt glad that she had taped the girl’s mouth before leaving. Otherwise, the girl would have ruined her plan.

Zophie angled her body a little and said nonchalantly, “Natalie, I’ve brought you here, so can you give me the jade key now?”

“Zophie, do I look like someone you can easily fool?” Natalie questioned as she continued to keep the gun trained on the back of Zophie’s head. She made no move to shift it away.

“You’re… breaking your promise!”

“How can I not when I’m up against a woman like you?” Natalie retorted. “Get over and untie Yumi right now.”

“Natalie, do you think I’m stupid?” Zophie did not move. “You’ll pull the trigger on me once she’s free! Yes, I’ve underestimated you, but I hope you don’t underestimate me either. Don’t you dare assume that I’m helpless just because you’re pointing a gun at me! Push me any further, and I won’t mind for all three of us to die tonight!”

Natalie did not expect Zophie to keep her cool even in a situation like this. Even so, she said calmly, “Tell me what you want, then.”

“My life, or the jade key. One of these has to be mine!”

“Okay.” Natalie pursed her lips. “Zophie, which one do you want first?”
