    “What do you want?”


    Lucinda shed a charming smile.


    She raised her hand slowly and the group of bodyguards took a step forward.


    Tess turned pale and took a step back.


    She gritted her teeth as she confronted Lucinda.


    “Cadiered is a country bound by the adequate Law system.


    You can’t kill me and get away with it.


    And besides, I haven’t done anything wrong.


    Since you have no evidence, how can you just take my life?”


    “I don’t n on killing you.


    That wouldn’t be fun.


    But I will find the evidence eventually.


    For now, you’ll have to pay for what you’ve done.

    Lucinda’s smile vanished and was reced by a cold,manding tone.


    “Get her.

    The bodyguards immediately sprang into action.


    They rushed forward to get Tess.


    She couldn’t fight them off.


    Tess felt helpless and afraid.


    Memories of thest time when Lucinda’s bodyguards had pped her flooded back, causing her to tremble uncontrobly.


    Alvina reacted fast and yelled at their own bodyguards, “Why are you just standing there? Call out all the bodyguards and servants to protect Tess!”


    The bodyguards of the Green family rallied around immediately.


    But they were no match for Lucinda’s well-trained team.


    Within minutes, everyone in the Green family vi had been apprehended.


    Tess saw how everything was turning out.


    She attempted to flee, but before she could take a step, she was grabbed by the shoulders.


    Lucinda’s bodyguards showed no mercy as they forced her to kneel.


    Tess grimaced in pain and shouted, “You witch! If youy a hand on me, I’ll make you pay! I will ensure that you die a miserable death!Belongs to ? n0velDrama.Org.


    Ah! Let me go!”


    “You’ve crossed the line!” Alvina protested.
