Chapter 915
Nevertheless, Wendy could not hear anything Daniel said after that as she slowly backed away with a pale face.
It was only after her back collided with the drawer did she mutter, “Doomed… I’m doomed.”
If Arielle escapes, she’ll surely tell Vinson about this. Then, Vinson will be prepared. How are we going to get rid of Arielle now? The best opportunity has slipped by us. It’s unlikely we’ll ever get another chance to end her life now.
When Cecilia walked out of the kitchen to see Wendy’s disheveled state, she hastily put down the plate and grabbed her daughter’s shaking shoulders. Then, in a worried tone, she asked, “What’s the matter, Wendy? What’s going on with Wendy, Daniel?”
Daniel gritted his teeth as he responded, “I accidentally let that girl escape.”
“What?” Cecilia shrieked as her eyes went wide. “You brought three mercenaries with you, but you couldn’t even handle one girl?”
Already frustrated by things not going his way, an annoyed look crept onto Daniel’s face when he heard Cecilia’s question,
“Stop kicking up a fuss! I’ll send more people after her tonight. What’s there to scream about when her fate is certain? I’m tired. I’m going back to my room to rest first.” With that said, Daniel went back to his room.
Cecilia bit down on her lower lip before turning to the trembling Wendy. “Don’t worry, Wendy. Your dad will be going out again tonight. I’ll ask him to bring that minx to you so that you can torment that girl yourself. How does that sound?”
“It’ll be impossible.” Wendy tightened her fists. “Arielle’s a crafty b*tch. If you go after her again, you’ll step right into her trap. She’ll be fine, but we’ll be doomed. She’ll screw us over!”
At that, Cecilia began mulling over her words.
Indeed, if they had gotten rid of Arielle immediately, Vinson would not have held the Greene family accountable. However, that was not the case as they had not succeeded. Furthermore, Vinson was at the peak of his prime, where emotions ruled alongside rationality. Perhaps a few words from Arielle would make him go up against the Greenes.
