Chapter 305
“What use is there checking up on him? It solves nothing.”
Margot returned to the sofa and sat down. “Right now, other than Josiah, no one can help us.”
“But Josiah has said, only if you two die will he let the Leightons go.”
“How is this letting us go? He clearly wants us dead.” “Exactly, so we don’t have to waste our time pleading with him,” Ysabelle said while rubbing her hungry tummy. She said, “Mom, I’m hungry, can you go make me something to eat?” Ever since the fall of the Leightons, all their servants have left. Their lavish lifestyles instantly vanished too.
Margot glanced at Ysabelle and reprimanded, “Now, do you know the importance of learning how to cook? Come here, I’ll teach you.”
“I’m not learning.” Ysabelle did not feel that she would one day stoop so low as to have to make food on her own.
“What are you going to do if you don’t learn how to cook? The chefs are all gone. Are you going to starve to death?” Margot dragged Ysabelle into the kitchen, forcing her to learn how to cook
Once they finished cooking, the doorbell rang. Ysabelle ran to open the gate. When she saw police in uniforms outside, she instantly panicked. She instinctively ran and hid.
Outside the gate, the police said sternly, “Miss, we have been ordered to arrest Marvin Leighton. Please open up, if not we will consider it as an obstruction of justice.”
Ysabelle was frightened half to death. She immediately ran in and asked her mother for help.
