Secretary’s Secret Lover by Zayla Quinn novel Chapter 237

Chapter 237 Last Words

Jamie's handsome face went icy. He had never expected Ellen to hold Fiona hostage after injuring her hand.

Sure enough, he had underestimated the cunning woman. He should not have let down his guard against her.

"Ellen, I won't say it again. Let go of Fifi right away."

Jamie fixed his dark, bottomless eyes on Ellen's face. His eyes were like poisonous arrows that tried to thud into Ellen's heart.

Anyone would flinch when they met his eyes. Ellen was no exception.

It was not the first time she had seen Jamie angry, but today he was extremely angry as if he wished to crush her the next second.

Jamie was enraged because Ellen caught the wrong person. It was Fiona, the apple in Jamie's eyes.

Elie wouldn't take such a risk if she had another way. She knew she couldn't afford to offend him.

However, Ellen threw all her caution to the wind. She could not let the crazy man continue to threaten her father.

Her father would go to jail if Jamie was in a bad mood or Ellen wasn't compliant one day.

A healthy man would be half dead after going into that place, let alone her father, who was an old man in bad health.

If her father went to jail, she might never see him again.

Ellen had to take the risk.

Ellen pressed the fork hard against Fiona's neck and stared fearlessly at

Jamie, saying calmly, "Jamie, I will only give you 20 minutes. If you can't bring the contract and the materials here, I will kill her."

This was the time limit Ellen set for herself. She was injured and weak, so she couldn't hold out for too long. She had to solve it quickly.

A storm was gathering in Jamie's eyes. He narrowed his eyes and said slowly, "Ellen, you are killing yourself."

His voice was more terrified than hell and made her hair stand on end.

Ellen was not frightened. She looked at the clock on the wall and calmly said, "Mr. McBride, you have nineteen minutes and thirty seconds left."

Bang!

Jamie man waved his hand fiercely, and the vase that cost millions abruptly fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.

Jamie gritted his teeth ferociously. "Ellen, I don't think you have thought about the consequence."

’I have, but do I have another choice?" Ellen's eyes were not wavering.

The consequence would be more misery. It didn’t make much difference.

She'd better grasp the opportunity and put the fate of the Robbins family in her own hands.

Fiona had never imagined that Ellen dared to use her and threaten Jamie even though the latter was about to die of illness.

However, it could be seen that Ellen resorted to the worst method because she failed to get what she wanted from Jamie.

At this critical moment, Fiona wouldn’t be a useless fool. She thought, "If Ellen has her own way, how can I deal with her later?"

Fiona moved her wrist secretly, thinking she might be able to attack Ellen, who was sick and weak.

However, before Fiona raised her elbow, she felt a sharp pain in her neck.

"Ouch..."

Fiona let out a muffled groan as she felt a sticky liquid flowing down.

Pitter, patter...

A drop of blood fell onto the ground.

Her fingers touching the pulsing blood vessel, Ellen sneered, "Fiona, if you move again, I'll stab you.’

Only then did Fiona realize that the blood was her own blood.

"Ah!"

Fiona cried hysterically, "Save me, save me. Jamie, save me! This crazy woman wants to kill me..."

Jamie frowned at Fiona's frightened voice. The coldness in his black eyes could almost instantly freeze people around him.

It was easy to deal with Ellen, but Jamie couldn't take the risk with Fiona.

Jamie dialed a number and ordered coldly, "Bring me the whole set of A7E8 contracts. Now."

After he hung up, Jamie glanced at Ellen with his dark eyes and said sarcastically, "I hope you have thought of your last words.'

To his surprise, Ellen was unprecedentedly calm.
