When she heard Annalise Barton’s question, the woman in the black butterfly mask looked at Annalise. “It doesn’t matter who I am. What’s important is that I’ll only give you five seconds to exchange hostages. Five, four…” “Trevor! Save me!” When she received an eye signal from the woman in the black butterfly mask, Layla Cory called out to Trevor Stinson for help. Now that Trevor had seen Layla Cory, he was extremely annoyed. Wasn’t she causing trouble? Elusive love? Julian’s savior?
In his mind, Trevor only acknowledged Julian’s wife, Annalise. He was so indifferent that there was no emotion on his face at all. He approached Annalise and whispered in her ear, “Annalise, let’s exchange hostages. After we get Old Mr. Parks back, we’ll leave.” As long as the hostages were successfully swapped, he would leave with Annalise first together with Old Mr. Parks. When they had been safely taken away, Trevor would come charging back on a killing spree. Previously, he was worried about
Annalise’s safety and was somewhat distracted. He could not go all out to attack them. Once Annalise and Old Mr. Parks were safe, he would make life a living hell for all these people. While Trevor was whispering in Annalise’s ear, the woman in the black butterfly mask was waiting for an opportunity to hit Annalise in the chest with her elbow to break free. Pow! Trevor unceremoniously punched the woman’s bent arm. She gasped as she felt the excruciating pain. She gritted her teeth so hard that grinding sounds could be heard in the air. Before the woman could speak, Trevor spoke first. “I haté despicable low-life the most in my life!”
The woman wailed, “… Trevor, I’m your senior!” “Hmph…” Trevor gave a scornful sneer. That sneer represented his whole attitude. “Release Old Mr. Parks. I’ll count to three. Release them together! One, two, three!” Trevor was looking at the two men holding Old Mr. Parks when he started counting. In the end, after he finished counting, the two men made a deceptive move. Annalise had just lowered the dagger a little when the woman in the black butterfly mask tried to find an opportunity to break free from her grasp. Annalise pressed the dagger against the
woman’s neck again. She gave a scornful laugh. “Do you think I will trust someone like you?” The woman in the black butterfly mask was subdued again and was very angry. “I’m warning you to let me go immediately. Otherwise, my men will stab the old man once every second,” the woman in the black butterfly mask threatened. Following that, she signaled to the two men holding Old Mr. Parks with her eye. The two men immediately nodded, indicating that they understood the order.
