Married by Accident Taming the Billionaire (Cecilia) novel Chapter 301

Chapter 301 The Reaper is Closing in on Her 

"That's because she has something on me." 

That something, or more accurately, someone was no one else but Esmee Nelson, who was in the hands of Cecelia Linsey, thus becoming a threat against Maggie. 

"That's just an excuse!" 

"I know I'm incompetent compared to her, but this sudden explosion did keep her hands away from the secret collection." 

"It seems that someone else, just like us, wants to obtain the Collection of Fragrant Clothes. You don't need to be worried. As long as you keep an eye on Linsey, she'll find a way to get it." 

"Understood, Master." 

In the president's office of the Taylor Group. 

After ending the call, Maggie Taylor felt the pressure in her chest growing stronger. 

She wouldn't feel any relief until she got her hands on the Collection of Fragrant Clothes. 

This was her punishment for betraying the sect leader all those years ago! 

But no matter what, she had to deal with the troublesome Esmee Nelson first; she couldn't stand it for another day!

In the secret underground chamber in Center City. 

Jersey Bowman returned here, opened the network marked with the venomous spider logo, and saw that someone had placed an order on the Bidder-Spidernet. 

He pressed a button, and before long, two sisters with identical appearances appeared before him. 

"Young Master!" 

Jessica and Kara bowed respectfully. 

These two sisters had always been Jersey Bowman's right-hand assistants, completely obedient to him alone. 

"I have a mission for you two." 

Jersey tapped on the desk with his slender fingers, and Kara picked up a piece of paper, quickly read it, and swallowed it. 

"Understood, Young Master. We will take action immediately!" 

The two sisters were about to leave, but Jersey stopped them. 

"Do you have any other instructions, Young Master?" 

"After the task is completed, find Cecelia Linsey. You need to find a way to stay with her, and, protect her." 

He deliberately paused on the words "protect her" and emphasized them. 

"Understood!" 

"Protection" meant focused surveillance. 

After receiving their orders, Jessica and Kara left the underground chamber. 

* 

In a secluded residence with an independent courtyard. 

The gate was locked, and the resident received her daily food through delivery. 

A large bag of food fell from the sky, and the sound drove Esmee Nelson to rush out of the house. 

Esmee had been confined here for quite some time. No one had physically abused her, and there were no loan sharks coming after her. Apart from being unable to contact the outside world and leave this place, she found it relatively comfortable here. 

She picked up the bag from the ground and opened it, finding plenty of food inside. 

She thought that Remington and Cecelia were not too bad. They didn't leave her here to die. 

Little did she know that the Reaper was closing in on her! 

While Esmee was eating, a figure slowly emerged from the shadows behind her. Kara, with her face covered, held a thin steel wire in her hand. 

Taking advantage of Esmee's unguarded moment, she suddenly tightened the wire around Esmee's neck and pulled it backward. 

Esmee suddenly felt it was hard to breathe, and her hands instinctively reached for the thing strangling her neck. 

She could feel someone strangling her from behind, but she didn't know who it was. 

Soon, another woman appeared in front of her, her face filled with fear. 

"Who are you..."
