Your Uncle’s My Husband Now Back Off, Ex! novel Chapter 152

**Through Unseen Doors We Step Into Untold Worlds Beyond**
by Sage Hunter Lane

“I realize now that I was mistaken… I’ll go to the police and confess. Will you allow me to leave?” Jacqueline’s voice trembled with desperation as she implored Nyla, her eyes wide with a mix of fear and hope.

Nyla, however, merely shook her head, her expression unyielding. “I’m afraid that won’t suffice. Even if you do turn yourself in, the Rainfords have the resources to bail you out.”

“What I truly desire,” Nyla continued, her voice steady and cold, “is for you to endure the same torment and terror that Valarie experienced. Only then will you grasp the depth of her suffering.”

A wave of despair washed over Jacqueline, crashing against her like a relentless tide. She hadn’t anticipated Nyla’s unwavering ruthlessness. Regret gnawed at her insides as she reflected on her choices. If only she had heeded her parents’ warnings and offered a sincere apology to Nyla, she wouldn’t find herself ensnared in this dire predicament now.

But then a thought flickered in her mind like a spark in the darkness. Erin had been the one to provoke her into this mess. If she could just shift the blame onto Erin, perhaps there was still a chance for her to salvage her situation!

With renewed determination, she lifted her gaze to meet Nyla’s steely eyes. “Ms. Jayston, it was Erin who pushed me into this,” she confessed, her voice barely above a whisper.

Nyla’s brow furrowed, and her expression hardened further. “Erin has no vendetta against Valarie. What possible benefit could she gain from you harming her?”

Jacqueline shook her head vigorously, her voice quaking with fear. “I-I don’t know! But she told me that if I ruined Valarie, Tom would be mine, and the Rainfords would be saved… I-I truly didn’t want to hurt Valarie… Please, have mercy on me!”

“So it was Erin who instructed you to take those compromising photos of Valarie and to coerce her into jumping?” Nyla’s voice was sharp, cutting through the tension like a knife.

“Yes! She made me do everything!” Jacqueline affirmed, desperation spilling from her lips as she clung to the hope of absolution.

In her frantic attempt to extricate herself from the situation, Jacqueline poured all the blame onto Erin, hoping that Nyla would believe her.

Nyla regarded her in silence, her expression inscrutable. Just when Jacqueline thought she might have swayed Nyla’s opinion, Nyla unexpectedly dialed a number on her phone.

Moments later, Erin’s gentle voice resonated through the speaker. “Ms. Nyla, how can I assist you today?”
