Allison walked around to show the scenery to Amy.
At that time, daylight revealed all the scenery around.
Amy found that it was splendid here, where the thin mist of morning whirling around the mountain added mystery to it.
There was a deep wood and various mountains of different shapes, which were like humans or animals. Set off by the leaves, they could be like anything.
Although it was splendid here, there were too many trees and very few flowers, which made this place look grim and dreary.
"The scenery here is very beautiful and this place is also extremely gloomy and dark. Amy, you have no idea how many people have died here. After they passed away, their corpses were buried under the trees. That's why these trees are all tall and strong," said Allison. She told Amy the circumstances of this place.
She attempted to describe this horrible place to frighten Amy to beg for her forgiveness and let her go. Actually, even Amy yield, she would show her no mercy.
However, the reaction of Amy disappointed her. There was no fear on Amy's face. Allison thought she was trying to hide her true feelings so she wanted to intimidate her with more horrible description.
"It is cool and gloomy here the whole year because there are many ghosts. Amy, you are going to keep them company forever. How nice it will be! The staving ghosts must be pleased with the company of such a beautiful woman," said Allison. Then she gloated over Amy's misfortune.
"I think this is a good place with beautiful scenery and pleasant weather. Allison, since you are irritable, this place is more suitable for you," said Amy.
Hearing her words, Allison became angry immediately. She hated Amy because she always assumed an air of superiority. She swore she would let Amy know what it was like to be abused.
"Amy, you are trying to get yourself killed. You two push this woman off the cliff." Amy's face was dark with rage. She motioned those men to push Amy off the cliff.
Two men came, grasped Amy and took her to the edge of the cliff.
"Let her appreciate the scenery below the cliff first. It is also very beautiful," said Allison. She ordered the two men to press Amy's head down. Amy took a look at the scenery below, which was extremely deep. One must die without anything left but bones once he fell off the cliff.
"What do you think of it? I think you must like it very much. Amy, beg me for mercy. I will free you if you beg me for mercy," said Allison in a condescending way.
Amy took no notice of her. She was aware that this heinous woman just wanted her to give in but she was too naive. She would never submit herself to Allison.
"Allison, you are thinking too much. It's impossible for me to yield to you. You mean nothing to me. Do you think Philip will let you off if he knows you take me there? You have worked for him for so many years. Aren't you clear what kind of person he is? I'm the bride he chooses. If I die, you won't make it through tomorrow. I'm so glad to leave with you. With your company, I will never feel lonely on the way to death," said Amy to Allison. There was no fear on Amy's face but contempt for Allison.
