Chapter 507
In Morwen’s view, the thought of Tiffany dancing was absurd. If she went up there, it would only lead to embarrassment. With this comparison in mind, she wondered if Jeremy would still consider her unattractive.
Morwen gritted her teeth, nearly losing her composure under the intense urge to compete.
Tiffany found it somewhat amusing and asked, “Why should I agree?” Asking her to dance like that made it seem as if she were far too easy to dismiss.
“You…” Morwen was momentarily at a loss for words. Fortunately, she hadn’t forgotten her purpose for the evening: she held back her anger, choosing not to walk away. Instead, she reached out and grabbed Tiffany’s hand.
At that moment, the lights on the cruise went out. Darkness enveloped everything, so dense that even outstretched hands were invisible.
One of the guests erupted in a startled scream. Jeremy reacted instantly, reaching out to grab Tiffany beside him, but his hand met only empty air.
Two minutes later, the lights came back on. The server remained unfazed, carrying trays and moving through the crowd as if nothing bad happened. The atmosphere gradually revived, and the room soon returned to its lively buzz.
Tiffany and Morwen were nowhere to be seen. Jeremy’s expression turned grim as he immediately searched for them.
At that moment, Tiffany was in a secret room. The space was cramped and empty on all sides, but it was stocked with various tools of the trade associated with control and compliance in intense situations.
Tiffany couldn’t help but find it amusing, clicking her tongue in surprise. “You’re tough on yourself indeed, preparing all these things?” She said, casually picking up a stun device before turning to Morwell
Just before the power went out, Morwen had grabbed Tiffany’s hand. In an instant, the room plunged into complete darkness; a hidden passage opened beneath their feet, and both fell into the room below.
Morwen had planned it carefully, intending to make her move as soon as they landed. However, Tiffany quickly turned the tables, overpowering her in a single move,
After subduing Morwen, Tiffany immediately removed the bracelet from her wrist. With a gentle pull, it transformed into a whip, and she had bound Morwen tightly in no time.
The bracelet was a gift from Ged. It appeared to be merely an accessory to the untrained eye, but it was a handy weapon when needed.
Tiffany lazily sat in the chair, looking down at Morwen, pinned to the floor. She sneered and asked, “Is this all that Miss Xanthus is capable of?”
Morwen’s face alternated between pale and flushed, but she was confident enough to fire back coldly, “Tiffany Kelley, what are you so proud of? Do you think you won’t be begging me later?”
“Oh! So confident!” Tiffany asked.
“Of course!” Morwen replied with a sneer. “Everyone on this cruise is under my command. Do you think you can escape? Just one word from me, the ship will be set on fire. If you want to die, we can both go together!” She spoke with a face full of certainty.
Morwen acknowledged that she wasn’t a match for Tiffany regarding physical strength, but she had come fully prepared for this moment. When the ship caught fire, a helicopter would rescue her.
However, Tillany would have only two choices–either stay in the flames and burn to death or push through the fire and

jump into the river.
However, for someone like Tiffany, who couldn’t swim, jumping in would be as good as seeking death. Dare to threaten me?‘ Morwen though, smiling smugly.
“I suggest you release me now,” Morwen said. “As long as I’m in a good mood, I won’t hold it against you. Who knows, I might even be willing to spare your life.”
“It seems I overestimated you, Tiffany said indifferently. “Turns out you’re not just acting smart, but completely foolish!– Fine, since you’re so confident, go ahead and have someone start the fire. With that, Tiffany opened the door.
As expected, several of Morwen’s subordinates were waiting outde, having been strategically placed in advance. The moment the door opened, they rushed forward at the sight of Tiffany, only to be knocked back with a punch from her. In a matter of seconds, she sent several of them flying
Seizing the opportunity, Morwen immediately shouted, “Set the fire! Make the ship burn, hurry!”
One of the subordinates immediately rushed off to carry out the order. However, a few minutes later, the subordinate returned with a long face, shouting, “Miss Xanthus, it’s bad! For some unknown reason, the gasoline was sabotaged and leaked out. There’s only one barrel left!”
Morwen was speechless, her face turning ashen. She shouted, no longer caring about anything else, “One barrel is enough set it on fire!
“What are you standing there for? Go!” Morwen yelled, and the subordinate, not daring to delay any longer, gritted his teeth and hurriedly went to carry out the order.
She swiftly dodged, and in a fluid motion, her dagger flew from her hand, striking the arm of the subordinate with pinpoint accuracy. A scream of agony echoed through the room.
