Yvette actually turned her head and looked right at Nova!
This single, cowardly gesture made Samuel and Chloe's hearts completely drop.
If the situation weren't so incredibly dangerous, Chloe would have screamed right then and there: "Mr. Wyndham, what is this filthy mistress doing?! Why doesn't she have the guts to admit it now?! Why is she looking at Nova?! Is she trying to signal to these psychos that Nova is the one they want?!"
"Who the hell are you two?!" The man's patience snapped. He violently jerked Nova and Yvette backward.
He pinned them directly against the railing of the cruise ship, ready to shove them over the edge into the abyss at any second.
Yvette's face went completely ashen, and she let out a terrified scream.
Nova closed her eyes for a brief second. When they fluttered open, her gaze was sharp and clear. She didn't let out a single sound of fear, merely asking, "What do you want with Mr. Forrester?"
Her voice was clear, cold, and frighteningly steady.
It caught the kidnapper so off guard that he hauled her back up by the collar. "Are you Mr. Forrester's woman?"
Nova's eyes remained completely deadpan. "No, I am not."
The man looked at Nova, then glanced at Yvette, who was trembling violently, her face ghostly pale with terror. He clearly didn't buy Nova's denial.
"I bet you are! Tristan Forrester is a man of taste. There's no way he'd choose a pathetic, whimpering mess who looks like she's about to die of fright!" The man laughed harshly.
His voice wasn't overly loud, but it was perfectly audible to both Nova and Yvette.
Hearing herself being humiliated like that, Yvette's face turned a sickly shade of green. She bit her lip hard and glared at Nova.
The lighting was too dim for her to truly recognize Nova's face or voice, and in her panicked state, she just assumed this woman was putting on a ridiculous act.
Fear is a primal biological instinct.
What was the point of playing the tough girl right now?
Nova blinked slowly, then turned her gaze to Yvette. "Why don't you ask the lady next to me if she's the one you're looking for."
Yvette pressed her lips tightly together, refusing to say a word.
Tristan still hadn't appeared...
