The Wife You Buried Is Back from Hell novel Chapter 1243

“Have someone follow her. Don’t let her out of your sight,” Sammie ordered, sending a voice message to his assistant under the pretext of going to the restroom. His voice was as hard as ice. “Report any developments immediately.”

“And run a background check on those armed men she hired.”

After hanging up, he stood before the restroom mirror. The man staring back had a grim, stormy expression.

He knew Rebecca’s personality all too well. She seemed gentle, but she was incredibly stubborn underneath. Once she set her mind to something, nothing could change it.

Her insistence on going to the Antarctic interior was undoubtedly for Danielle and Alexander, but she had no idea she was walking right into a trap.

The next morning, at the crack of dawn, the transfer base near Antarctica was already bustling with activity.

Rebecca, dressed in a heavy-duty polar expedition suit and goggles, stood beside a modified snow-terrain SUV, checking her equipment.

Behind her stood a dozen armed men in camouflage uniforms. They were all tall and stern-faced, with guns holstered at their waists, looking quite formidable.

“Miss Rebecca, all the equipment is ready, and we’ve found a guide. We can leave whenever you’re ready,” said the leader, a man named Kane. He was a locally known militia captain who had accepted a large deposit from Rebecca, confidently assuring her of her safety.

Rebecca nodded and pulled a thick wad of cash from her backpack, handing it to Kane. “This is the rest of the payment. When we reach the destination, I’ll give you a bonus.”

Kane weighed the money in his hand and grinned. “Don’t you worry, Miss Rebecca. You’ll be more than satisfied with our work.”

The group set off with a great sense of purpose.

The snow-terrain vehicle sped across the vast, white expanse, its wheels churning up clouds of powder as it crushed the thick snow beneath.

Outside the window was an endless sea of white. The fierce, cold wind howled, making the vehicle’s frame groan.

Rebecca sat in the passenger seat, watching the scenery fly by, her heart a tangle of emotions.

Rebecca’s heart sank. She instinctively took a step back, her eyes wary. “What are you trying to do? I can give you more money.”

“More money?” Kane laughed as if he’d heard the funniest joke in the world. “Miss Rebecca, do you take us for fools?”

“A rich lady like you must have plenty of other valuables on you. Why don’t you just hand them all over?”

With a wave of his hand, the men behind him closed in, their guns all aimed directly at Rebecca.

A cold sweat broke out on Rebecca’s back. Looking at the vicious faces surrounding her, she finally understood that she had invited a pack of wolves into her own home.

These men weren’t legitimate armed guards at all; they were just a band of greedy bandits.

“If you dare touch me, Sammie won’t let you get away with it!” Rebecca said, forcing a calm she didn’t feel, hoping his name would be enough to intimidate them.
