Family on Their Knees Heart Turned to Ice novel Chapter 937

Who told her to be so desperate for cash right now?

The moves she had to make were highly volatile. If she didn't act quickly, she'd lose her advantage and things would only spiral further out of control.

Once the funds from the car hit her account, Bella immediately began plotting her late-night operation to extract Debbie Harris.

After midnight, the security detail thinned out significantly, leaving only a skeleton crew on rotation.

They were highly trained professionals, but guarding a hysterical, exhausted woman wasn't exactly a high-alert mission, so they only kept two men stationed at the door.

They had no idea when Sebastian Blake would finally get around to dealing with this woman, but until he did, they were under strict orders to keep her locked down.

It wasn't that Sebastian didn't want to deal with Debbie; he simply hadn't had the time.

With everything exploding over the past few days, he couldn't spare a single thought for her.

Coupled with his deep-seated psychological aversion, he loathed the idea of interacting with Debbie more than necessary.

So, after wallowing in despair for two days to clear his head, he had thrown himself back into corporate matters.

He had planned to check on Debbie the following day and arrange for her to be shipped off, ensuring she could never return to the country.

But that very night, everything went wrong.

Sebastian hadn't had a proper night's sleep in days. He had barely drifted off near midnight when his phone began blaring.

Half-asleep, he answered the call. The moment he heard the report, his eyes snapped open and he bolted upright in bed.

"Say that again? What happened to Debbie?"

"Gone? Someone took her? Who took her?"

Without hesitation, she pulled out her phone and snapped several humiliating photos of Debbie from various angles. Shaking her head, she sneered, "Oh, Debbie, Debbie. How did you give birth to such a ruthless son? I get why he's cruel to me, but how could he be so vicious to his own flesh and blood?"

The affectionate title of 'Ms. Harris' was dead and buried. Now, Bella addressed her with pure venom.

Given her current predicament, Debbie couldn't even express her fury. She just kept whining through the tape, begging Bella to untie her.

Bella simply stared down at her with morbid fascination, not making the slightest move to help.

"What are you whining about? Shut up! If it weren't for you, would I be in this godawful mess right now?

You old hag. You actually dared to scam me out of my money?

You're nothing but a filthy old degenerate gambler, and you actually had the nerve to play the victim in front of me. I can't believe I let you pull one over on me.

Do you have any idea how many of my plans you ruined?"
