The Substitute Bride: Idiot Or Not? novel Chapter 48

“Mr. Fairchild,” said Yulissa to Zyon. “She's the one who wanted to pick the stars tonight. No one forced her to. The road's slippery at night, and the mountainous path is fraught with danger. If she falls and dies, no one will suspect us.”

“You want to kill her?” Zyon stroked his chin and glanced at Winnie's face. He had not slept with her yet, so he was quite reluctant to let her go.

After thinking about it, he said, “We're still in Old Mr. Fairchild's territory. Don't be so certain yet. Why don't we do this? I'll lock her up in a place and ensure that she'll never meet Xavier again. How's that?”

Yulissa knew what Zyon was thinking about the moment she saw the lecherous look in his eyes.

She was in disbelief. Are men so foolish that they can't think straight upon seeing a beautiful woman? He even wants a dumbass for himself!

“I think that it's better to deal with her on the spot. She'll come back to bite us in the ass if we let her live.”

Zyon laughed. “Do you think that I'll be scared of a dumbass?”

“Mr. Fairchild!” Deliberately trying to provoke him, Yulissa revealed a look of disdain. “You can have all the women you want. Why are you so attached to a dumbass? You're so blinded by lust that I can't blame Old Mr. Fairchild for looking down on you.”

“What did you say?” Yulissa's words hit the bullseye for Zyon. “Do you want to die?”

“Of course not, Mr. Fairchild! But if we want to survive, we must kill that dumbass!”

“Fine! Fine! Fine! Do it elsewhere. Don't taint my eyes.” Zyon waved his hands, lowered his head, and lit a cigarette.

In this battle, Winnie had been at a disadvantage right from the start. Now that she was being held down by two burly men, she could barely move.

D*mn it! She was extremely frustrated. When she went down earlier, she should have paid more attention to what was in front of her. Otherwise, she would not have let someone kick her knees.

Soon, Yulissa instructed the men to move Winnie to the cliff.

Upon thinking that this dumbass, who managed to catch Xavier's fancy and kept overpowering her, was going to die, Yulissa could not help but feel excited.

“Here! Gag her before you throw her down.”

“Okay!” When a man heard the orders, he immediately ripped out a part of his sleeve, preparing to use it to gag Winnie.

At the moment when the man loosened his grip, Winnie found the opportunity.

The only principle of dealing with an enemy was to attack the critical spot. Knowing that very clearly, Winnie bent her knees and kicked the man at the spot where it hurt the most.

He curled up into a ball in pain. Naturally, he also released his grip on Winnie.

Having regained her freedom, Winnie quickly lifted her leg and aimed a kick at the other man, who was still standing there. As he was caught off guard, he bore the full brunt of the attack.

“You useless sh*ts!”

Yulissa did not expect Zyon's two bodyguards to be so horrible at fighting. However, afraid that Winnie would run away, she pushed Winnie forcefully without a second thought.

Expecting that Yulissa would not just stand idly by, Winnie had already prepared for her sneak attack.

Hence, when Yulissa attacked her, Winnie cleverly turned the attack against Yulissa. Not only did Yulissa fail to push her over, but she also pulled Yulissa toward her.

She had never wanted to harm anyone on her own accord. However, since Yulissa was the one who tried to kill her, she had dug her own grave. If she fell from the cliff, it was her own fault, regardless of whether she died.
