Jennifer hurriedly grabbed Vicky's arm, shaking her head vehemently. "Vicky, don't."
Vicky gave Jennifer a reassuring look and then turned her gaze toward Bella.
"It seems we won't be able to reach an agreement today, Miss Thompson," Vicky said calmly. "I have some other matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave."
She refused to succumb to Bella's threats.
Bella's purpose was to target her. Even if she complied, it would only make things more interesting for Bella. Vicky knew she had no intention of setting Willow free at all.
Seeing Vicky's resistance, a sinister glint flashed in Bella's eyes.
She had harbored resentment toward Vicky for years. If Vicky's life took a turn for the worse, she might have found satisfaction to a degree. However, Vicky's life had only improved over the years, and her career soared.
Bella's hatred for her had reached an unbearable level, especially after her recent confession to Harvey, which he rejected. Bella wanted nothing more than to kill Vicky.
With her arch-nemesis standing right in front of her, Bella's hatred reached its peak at the realization that she was unable to exact revenge.
If she could not have peace, neither could Vicky.
With that in mind, Bella grabbed the scalding hot tea kettle from the table and viciously hurled it toward Vicky's face.
Vicky and Jennifer had already turned away and did not notice Bella's actions. However, the man who had silently stood behind Vicky the whole time, Tyler, observed the scene.
