He looked at me with a vicious stare. "Wanda Lane, what did I do to make you plot against me?"
I chuckled. "It’s simple. First, I have a grudge against Grayson Louis. Second, I'm helping Heidi get rid of a jerk like you. Given that you're not the type who listens, I had no choice but to take things this far."
"You have some guts!" Benny was so pissed that his eyes grew bloodshot.
Since things have turned out this way, he might as well go all out. Benny pulled his necktie off and walked toward me. "No way. She has to die today. If she's dead, I'll have a way out."
"You're crazy.” Lawrence looked at him with frustration.
I did not panic when Benny was approaching me. I was counting silently in my heart.
When I counted to ten, loud noises came from outside.
Lawrence shot me a glance. "Miss Lane, I just did as I was ordered to. I didn’t want to hurt you. You know that as well."
After he said that, he dashed into the bathroom.
I saw him stick his head into the bathtub filled with
water. I secretly sighed while looking at this brilliant man.
Benny realized that he had been betrayed. He cursed," Lawrence Ray, you son of a b*tch!"
The police officers rushed in and instantly held him down on the floor. Theo walked toward me and covered me with a jacket. His expression was frighteningly gloomy. Carlson and Tyler came in after that, both with terrible expressions on their faces. They let out soft sighs. "I'm fine."
When Chief Ford saw me in such a terrible state, he almost had a stroke and died on the spot. He looked at Benny who was being held down on the floor with a hateful gaze. He kicked him forcefully. "F*cking animal!"
I was sent to the hospital. Theo left after the wounds o n my body were treated and dressed. Tyler kept me company in the ward.
