Chapter 240

Emily leaned even closer, her voice laced with sarcasm as she explained, “You thought just because you had dirt on Jeremy, you could just sit back and wait for him to bail you out?

“This whole mess is way too big now. The price to save you is just too high. With how selfish and greedy Jeremy is, do honestly think he’d stick his neck out for you?

“No, for someone like him, silencing you for good and making sure there are no loose ends is the smartest move.

“So, what do you think is going to happen to your dad now that you’re stuck here, unable to say a word?”

Emily didn’t know Jeremy all that well, but Zack had told her that Jeremy was the kind of man who always made sure to tie up every loose end.

She leaned close to Yvonne’s ear, speaking each word slowly and clearly, “You know Jeremy better than I do. Do you think a guy like him would settle for just having you turned into a vegetable?”

Maybe Jeremy’s original plan was to have Yvonne beaten to death, but she was just tough enough to survive. After all, only the dead stay silent, and someone in a vegetative state could wake up at any time.

That was just Emily’s guess. Whether Jeremy thought that way or not, she didn’t know, and she had zero interest in finding

out.

All Emily wanted was for Yvonne to realize that as long as she was still breathing, Jeremy could have her killed at any time. And as for the only person left who could actually back her up, Walter, was in danger.

Emily’s lips curled into a wicked grin. “Yvonne, you managed to survive. But do you think your dad’s luck will hold out like yours?”

The woman on the bed still didn’t move, but Emily felt a rush of satisfaction like never before. She’d said her piece, and her time was up. There was no reason to stick around any longer.
