For an international brand, even the dressing room was huge at more than ten square feet large.
Andrea was expressionless at this time, and standing across from her was a man.
The man wore a silver mask on his face, so his features were hidden, but his stature was slender and thin, and his voice was cold and low.
“We’ve already given you many opportunities and you clearly had many chances to do it, so why didn’t you?”
Andrea looked at him coldly. At this moment, her face no longer had that uncomfortable and earthy smile she had outside. There was just icy coldness. She looked at the man and said coldly, “How can I know that you’ll leave my family alone when I finish the job for you?”
The man sneered and walked forward slowly.
When he was right in front of her, he suddenly reached out and gripped her chin. His voice was as light as a ghost’s. “You think that we won’t let go of your family, but what’s the point of keeping them anyway? Make them do manual labor? Hahahaha…Amber, you should understand that once we get Vickie Thomas, you’ll be of no use, and your family will naturally be of no use to us as well. Why should we bother to keep them?”
The girl he called Amber, also known as Andrea, did not react to his words. She said gravely, “If you want me to help you, you need to let my family go first, or at least, let me know that they’re safe. Otherwise, I won’t help you even if I die!”
Her eyes were fierce and sharp.
The man narrowed his eyes at her. “In other words, you won’t listen to me, hm?”
Andrea remained silent.
The man suddenly laughed wickedly.
The laughter was like venom spit out from a viper, causing chills to run down one’s spine. He suddenly leaned over close to her and whispered, “The call you received earlier wasn’t actually from home, but from Shimon Flinders, wasn’t it?
Andrea shuddered violently. She looked at him in disbelief.
The man continued, “Shimon Flinders raised an illegitimate daughter outside, who’s already 18 years old now. You’re a member of the Flinders family, yet you had to live in an orphanage. It was hard to grow up there peacefully, and you were full of hope that you would be recognized by your father, but not only did he not do that. Instead, he even ordered you to go to Gregory Graham and lurk here as a little maid at his disposal. Aren’t you even the slightest bit resentful?
The expression in Andrea’s eyes could no longer be described as simply shocked. She glared viciously at the man and gritted her teeth. “I don’t know what you’re talking about!”
“Oh, you won’t admit it. Tsk, tsk, well, it doesn’t matter. In any case, the old woman in that orphanage of yours won’t live much longer. If you don’t help us, why don’t I kill her first? Besides having to send someone to take care of her, we have to listen to her curse and swear every single day. It’s really quite annoying.”
Andrea immediately shot to her feet.
“Don’t you dare touch my grandma!”
However, her shoulders were soon pressed back down by the man.
He seemed gentle, but his strength was actually very heavy, pressing her so that she sat back down in the chair again. He said airily, “Be a good girl and listen to me, and I won’t kill her, okay?”
Andrea’s eyes turned red.
The man took out a packet of medicine from his clothes. “How many times have you used the essential oil you were given before?”
Andrea glared at him coldly. Her eyes showed that she did not want to answer, but when she remembered her grandma’s humiliated appearance in the back of her mind, she answered with red-rimmed eyes, “Four times.”
“That’s enough. Find another chance today and put this into her drinking water. I’ll be watching you in the dark. After you succeed, I’ll give you another signal which you’ll follow. Understand?”
Jonathan was immediately stunned.
Andrea did not expect Jonathan to be there and she froze at first. Then, her entire face turned red. She looked at him nervously before turning to Vickie. “Sister Vickie, does it look nice?”
Vickie smiled and nodded. “Yep, it’s nice.”
Then, she turned and nudged Jonathan with her arm. “What do you think?”
Jonathan snapped back to reality. His handsome and fair face suddenly grew a brilliant red, and all of a sudden, he did not even know where to focus his eyes at all. He nodded his head in panic. “I-ot’s nice.”
Vickie could not help but giggle.
As Andrea also turned red, Vickie looked at the two of them and sighed in her heart.
‘My heart is already broken, so I can only help you guys so far.’
Before, she was unable to determine Jonathan’s thoughts about Andrea, but now, it looked like he cared about her. Neither of them said anything simply because they were both introverted.
At this time, Jonathan finally understood the reason why Vickie had dragged him in. It was not to check her out but Andrea...
It was unknown what came to his mind, but the blush on his face deepened even more. His eyes did not dare to land on Andrea as if that fresh and beautiful person would immediately become contaminated once his gaze touched her.
He stammered out a whisper, “M-Miss Thomas, I’ve looked at the dress. I’ll go out first.”
