Chapter 550 Cut Your Face
Cecilia saw Jonathan's small body tied up with ropes, hanging off the bridge, looking like he could fall into the river at any second.
In an instant, she found herself unable to utter a single word.
“Ms. Smith, our client said, if you leave Tudela, we'll let the child go. But if you insist on staying, then the boy dies.”
Cecilia didn't even hesitate. “Fine, I'll leave. Just let him go.”
Scarface, however, didn't release Jonathan. Instead, following Cassandra's instructions, he added, “I don't believe you.”
As Cecilia rushed toward the river in her car, she asked, “Then what do you want me to do?”
“Do you have a knife on you?”
Cecilia looked around. “No.”
“Then find something sharp and cut your face.”
Scarface had worked under Queenie for half his life, but this was the first time he used a child to force a woman to disfigure herself.
Deep down, he sighed heavily.
He had assumed she wouldn't agree so easily, but in the next moment, he heard a shriek from the other end of the phone line.
Cecilia removed the earring she was wearing and harshly scratched her right cheek, causing blood to pour out profusely.
“I-I've done it. Please, let my son go. I'm begging you!”
She didn't know what kind of grudge these people held against her, but all she cared about now was keeping Jonathan alive.
She didn't mind disfiguring herself or even giving her life, as long as her son lived.
This was the instinct of a mother. For her child, she feared nothing.
“How do I know you really cut your face? Send me a video.”
Cecilia, still driving, managed to send the video.
When Scarface opened it and saw her resolute actions, he couldn't help but admire her.
He immediately forwarded the video to Cassandra.
Seeing it, Cassandra was overjoyed. “Mom, with a scar like that on her face, how's she ever going to seduce Nicholas again?”
