Chapter 441
Bride Behind The Mask
Meanwhile, the half-dead Hammond was tossed into the middle of nowhere by his bodyguards.
With his last ounce of energy, he dialed Yunaâs number, âMaurice has found out that Hayes is Margueriteâs son. You better watch your back.â
At this moment, Yuna was on her way to Frederickâs study. She intended to apologize to him for the morningâs mishap.
Dressed in a breezy outfit and carrying a plate of homemade cookies, she was startled by Hammondâs words and dropped the cookies on the floor.
Without cleaning up, she ran back to her room, fuming, âYou said you would help me. What the hell happened?â
Hammondâs voice was very weak, âDonât worry, I know Maurice. He wonât tell Marguerite until the last minute. You better prepare yourself. And after this, donât come looking for me anymore. Because of you, Iâm now a broken man. The only thing I regret in this life, is siding with you!â
As he spoke, Hammondâs words grew increasingly resentful.
He now knew very well that being close to Yuna would bring misfortune! He himself was the living proof! Unfortunately, he realized this too late!
In these desolate outskirts, he had no idea whether he would survive.
Even if he did manage to hang on, there would be no place for him in Stonebridge City!
What hurt him the most was that Janie, in order to interrogate him, had castrated him. Looking down at his mutilated genital, Hammond was filled with regret.
Ignoring Yunaâs screams on the phone, he coldly hung up and began to drag his battered body around, aimlessly looking for signs of life.
On the other end, Yuna was frantically pacing her room.
Maurice knew that Hayes was Margueriteâs child! And what was worse, they were now living under the same roof!
With them bumping into each other constantly, it was only a matter of time before Maurice spilled the truth to Marguerite!
âWould I still be able to enjoy my luxurious life then?!â Yuna worried.
In her desperation, Yuna thought of Barnes. Even though the man posed a great threat to her, she had no other choice but to turn to him!
She immediately dialed Barnesâ number, who picked up almost instantly, âWell, have you come to your senses?â
âGet rid of Hayes. Name your price!â
Barnes laughed, his laughter wicked and chilling, âMoney? Iâve got plenty of it now. What I really want, is you.â
Yuna gritted her teeth in anger, âHow dare you!â
âSweetheart, third timeâs the charm! Next time you come to me, I might not be so accommodating!â
Yunaâs face turned red with rage. But then, a more meticulous plan began to form in her mind.
Perfect! Barnes liked to threaten her, right? Then she would let him taste the consequences of threatening her!
In an instant, a sinister and ruthless light shone in Yunaâs eyes.
She took a deep breath, and said calmly, âGive me your location. Iâll be there soon.â
Hayes, Barnes⦠those who threaten her position, she would make sure they pay dearly, and no one could escape! Especially Hayes, she would make him disappear from Margueriteâs life in the most brutal way imaginable!
