Chapter 210 Bring You Down With Me
Emelie looked up calmly and responded, “Mr. Juste, you’ve mistaken me for someone else. I’m not the Emily you’re referring to.”
“Oh, I see. My mistake,” Reggie said, feigning sudden realization and giving her a sarcastic thumbs–up
“Ms, Hoven, you’re correct. You’re not Emily. You’re a good citizen who provided the police with valuable information. Thanks to you, my bar is still shut down for inspection.”
Emelie’s expression remained unchanged, unaffected by Reggie’s attempt to intimidate her. With a cold smile, he addressed William, “Mr. Middleton, now that you’re here, allow me to be your guide I know this place better than anyone.”
“Sure,” William replied. Seeing no surprise or wariness on William’s face, Reggie felt once again dismissed.
After encountering two dead ends consecutively, he turned his head and snapped, “Go away, you dogs! You’re scaring the guests!”
The dogs, initially ready to attack, Immediately lowered their cars and barked a couple of times. They retracted their fangs and claws but didn’t leave; instead, they continued to circle around them.
Reggie guided them around the village, offering a tour and introducing them to the community.
As Emelie and Samuel walked side by side, Samuel suddenly asked, “Was this the man who orchestrated the abduction at the bar that night?”
Emelle pursed her Eps. “Yes,”
Samuel adjusted his glasses. However, even through the lenses, the cold, murderous glint in his eyes was unmistakable,
The village roads were rough and uneven, dotted with wild grasses and buzzing mosquitoes. Melante, wearing a short skirt that exposed her legs, had been bitten by mosquitoes several times, resulting in large wees.
Unable to bear it any longer, she tagged on William’s sleeve. ‘Will, have you seen enough? There’s nothing here but a rural village. Let’s leave now.”
William had never paid much attention to Melanie He found her habit of constantly grabbing his hand annoying.
In the past, he had indulged her somewhat, partly out of respect for the Swanson family and partly because she was the woman Emelie had arranged for him.
He wanted to see how long Emelie could maintain her calm and composed demeanor. But now, he grew irritated every time he came across members of the Swanson family and had no desire to be courteous.
He withdrew his arm, his tone indifferent. “Ms. Swanson, your place isn’t beside me. If you’re unwilling to work,
rk, report to your supervisor. You’re free to leave whenever you wish
Melanie pouted. “Will, you weren’t this distant with me before”
William chuckled. “You weren’t this disrespectful before, either.”
“I’m not being disrespectful.” Melanie felt a pang of guilt and bat her lip. “Did Frielle say something to you?”
William remained silent, and Melanie took his silence as confirmation. She stomped her foot in anger. “I knew she was a manipulative woman!”
With that, she stormed over to Emelie and shoved her without warning, “I already apologized to you, and you still went and talked badly about me to will! How could you be so
Emelle staggered back a few steps and inadvertently stepped on something soft and unfamiliar in the thicket. Without looking back, she retorted, “Ms. Swanson, you apologized to me? When? I don’t recall receiving any apology”
Melanie’s anger intensified, pointing accusingly at her. “You!”
Samuel’s expression darkened “Melanie!
Before Melanie could respond, the dogs circling around them suddenly barked fiercely Without giving anyone a chance to react, the dogs turned aggressive and hinged at the group.
The group consisted of more than a dozen people, with Jaxon leading the villagers, totaling around twenty to thirty individuals crowded onto a narrow path that was barely six feet
wide
As the village dogs attacked, chans erupted, and everyone scrambled for cover. The bodyguards reacted immediately. Amidst the chaos, Emelie glanced back at the thicket where she had stepped earlier.
To her horror, she discovered it was a bruised human band!
Her eyes widened, and she couldn’t help but let out a startled exclamation, “Ah!”
She took a sudden step back and bumped into someone. When she turned around in panic, she found herself face–to–face with
William, who had been at the front of the group with the bodyguards, was now beside her.
Trading with fear, she pointed urgently toward the thicket “William! Look over there!”
William sepointed and noticed it as well
th William. There was no time to question why
Just thien, a shout rang out, “Now that you’ve caught me red–handed, there’s no point in hiding anymore! I’ll make sure to bring you down with me, even if it’s the last thing bil- Emelie turned abruptly and found herself staring directly into Jack’s menacing face.
