Chapter 2976
After the bodyguard handed her some food, he yelled, "Hurry up and finish it up if you wish to live!"
Joan felt a strong urge to devour the scrumptious- looking meal she had been served, yet she pushed it aside and asserted with a determined look, "No! I'm not hungry!"
I'd rather starve myself to death than be poisoned to death.
Irritated by her response, the man delivered a powerful kick to Joan before making his way out of the room.
The bodyguard outside asked, "How did it go? Did she consume anything?"
"No! We'll just let her starve to death then!"
Joan could hear the conversation between the vicious bodyguards at the entrance.
Della, since you want me dead, why bother hiding behind the scene? When will Larry return? Can I survive until the day he's back? As she thought about it, her eyes flickered in disappointment.
After she gathered her thoughts, she got increasingly melancholic as she surveyed the surroundings.
Having gone through countless mishaps in her life, she could no longer stand it.She wondered how long she would be able to survive if this went on.
Can I even make it out alive? Once Larry showed up, he asked in an icy tone, "Nancy, have you checked the surveillance system?"
He had no time to reprimand anyone because Joan's safety was his sole priority.
Nancy looked elsewhere and replied apologetically, "Yes, but we couldn't see their faces because the surveillance cameras around the entrance were broken."
She felt guilty because Larry had entrusted Joan in her care, but the woman ended up getting abducted.
"Larry!"
Caspian and Jessica came rushing into the villa after a short while.
Jessica sprinted over to Nancy's side and grasped her hand, asking anxiously, "Have you guys found Joan?"
Nancy shook her head in silence while Jessica stomped her feet in anger and blamed herself, "I shouldn't have made the trip!"
