After Gregory headed up, the rest of the crew followed suit.
Christine was still donned in her evening gown. It was fine on land, but once the boat started moving, the chilly sea breeze mixed with rain made her shiver. Dailey offered his jacket, but she refused.
"Gregory." Lucius approached, handing over a cell phone, "It's Samuel on the line." A flash of murderous intent crossed Gregory's eyes as he took the call, yet remained silent.
Samuel, however, seemed to enjoy Gregory's demeanor, full of attitude.
"Let her go. Just cto me, be one of mine, and I assure you, your lady won't be harmed.” It was indeed related to him.
He knew it; how could Mark cup with such a flawless plan alone.
He had been careless not to deal with Summer sooner.
Thinking that without Mark, that usurper wouldn't have the means to stir up trouble.
Gregory's voice, cold as the sea wind, broke the silence, “Since you're so eager to meet your Maker, I'll be generous and send you on your way to meet God." Samuel laughed as if he heard the joke of the century, unable to stop.
"Gregory, you might be a big deal in Vista Town, but you can't just killwhenever you wish." "I'm giving you ten minutes. If you keep up this tough act, you'll never see her again in your life." Gregory hung up.
On the other end, Samuel was baffled, turning to Josiah and asked, "Didn't you say capturing her would make him fall in line?" Josiah was equally puzzled.
He knew how much Gregory cared for Jane.
And from what he'd learned from Mark, Jane was pregnant.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtUnder such circumstances, why wouldn't Gregory compromise? "Mark was your man?" This was news to Josiah; Mark had been in cahoots with Samuel all along. The escape plan had been concocted knowing about Jane's pregnancy.
Even drawing Gregory into Samuel's territory was part of Mark's plan.
He had thought Mark lost his mind over love, self-destructing for Jane. Little did he realize, Mark had a backup plan.
This scheming was on par with Gregory's.
But they couldn't underestimate Gregory.
Even with Jane taken, his arrogance was unusual.
Josiah suggested, "Maybe have Mark send a short video to Gregory." Samuel caught on, dialing Mark.
Mark thought, for the baby's sake, Jane would eat something.
But she refused.
He waited a long time, reheating the food over and over, even making new dishes, but she never begged him.
As midnight approached, he saw through the surveillance that she hadn't even had a sip of water.
Earlier, she had been so ill.
Her face was devoid of color, looking as if she might pass away any moment.
In the end, he couldn't bear it, unable to watch her suffer.
But just as he was about to serve the food, his phone rang.
During the pregnancy, Zoe had taken care ofmeticulously, meals served on the dot.
After going without food for so long, I was starving.
If this continued, even if the baby was fine, I might not last.
I wondered if Gregory had found any trace ofyet.
I couldn't just sit and wait; I had to think of something.
Suddenly, the door to the room was pushed open from the outside.
I didn't need to look to know it was Mark.
I didn't want to speak, only to curse him. But that would only provoke him.
He was a complete lunatic.
"Jane." I pretended not to hear, my gaze fixed outside the window.
Mark grabbed my arm, pinningto the bed.
I shielded my belly with my other hand, trying to break free from his grasp.
Realizing it was futile, I pleaded, "Please, don't hurt my child..." "If you don't harm it, I'll do anything you say." Force wouldn't work; I had to try a softer approach.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTo buy as much tas possible.
Gregory must be on his way to rescue me.
"You'd do anything?" A chill ran down my spine; this was beyond my control.
Mark tightened his grip on my arm, "Jane, you're lying." If it weren't for the baby, I would have fought back.
Even if it meant both of us getting hurt, at least no one would get what they wanted.
But now, I couldn't gamble with my child's life.
"My instincts might be Controllable, but I'm sincere.
s you don't harm my chiet listen to you." "If that's pulling case." Mark letgoet Swake a pulling out his phone. "Let's video." I was wary, not understanding his intention.
"What kind of video?"

But showing Gregory... It might be an opportunity.
"Okay." I agreed.
Mark seemed surprised by my quick agreement.

It looked like excitement beyond control.
