Chapter 1546


    "If I''m not human, I wouldn''t have given your mother the honour of taking her own life. If I''m not


    human, I would''ve killed you too, and you wouldn''t even be alive to talk to me now. If I''m not


    human..." Fiona was so worked up that she gave Vanessa another hard p. "Yes, you’ re right. I


    am cruel. I have no conscience, that’s why you’re here now."


    "Fiona, I''ve let you hit me andshed out at me all you want. You''ve also said all you had to say.


    Now, why don''t you tell me your intentions for kidnapping me?" Vanessa''s face was so numb as if it


    wasn''t hers anymore. Not to mention, there was blood on the corner of her mouth. Nevertheless,


    she told herself that she could not copse. She had to hold on for a while more. She believed that


    Julien woulde to rescue her very soon.


    Fiona didn’ t answer Vanessa''s question directly. Instead, she began to narrate about the past.


    "When I met your father, his business was doing well. As a big shot in the industry, he would give


    me whatever I desired. He made me realise that as a woman, I deserved to be happy. I enjoyed


    standing next to him, receiving jealous looks from other women. At that time, I realised I could be


    respectable too."


    "I enjoyed that feeling very much. I liked it when he spent a lot of money on me. Thus, I didn''t care


    whether he was married with a child. I was determined to be with him." At this moment, Fiona


    suddenly paused. Her gaze, which was already softened, became fierce and greedy once again.


    Unfortunately, his business worsened after that. Not only did he have to close down thepany,


    but he had to sell off all our assets. My son and I have suffered a lot for the past few years.


    Vanessa smiled meekly. "If I remember correctly, Marvin''s business took a dive shortly after my


    mother''s death. Eventually, he was left with nothing. It must be karma. Since both of you did all


    kinds of evil and even sacrificed my mom''s life, God had made you pay the price."


    Fiona grabbed hold of Vanessa''s neck and shouted through gritted teeth. "It''s all your fault! You little


    b*tch! If it weren''t for you, Marvin wouldn''t have made the wrong decision. He wouldn''t have lost all


    his fortune. My son and I wouldn''t have suffered this much."


    "Are you putting the me on me now? Hahaha..." Vanessa couldn''t believe that she still had the


    strength tough. How could Fiona be so shameless? "Are you using me because I didn''t give


    you money?"


    "Do you still remember what happened on the night of your graduation party? Not long after that


    night, you found out you were pregnant. Your father wanted you to get rid of the baby, but you


    refused. He was so worried that you would be hurt again, so he went looking for the man from that


    night, but found nothing. He had poured so much effort into the search that he hadn''t rested


    enough. Because of that, he signed on a document which had caused great losses to thepany.


    With that, Love Corp hit rock bottom and never recovered." As she said this, Fiona'' s tone was full


    of contempt. If Marvin had listened to her, they wouldn''t have ended up this way.


    "Come to think of it, Marvin still has a conscience." However, Vanessa didn''t want to listen anymore.


    It was a fact that Marvin had hurt Emily and her. "Fiona, I understand what you want from me is


    money so that you could live a carefree life. Name your price. I''ll give you what I can."

    Fiona admitted, "Yes, I want money, a lot of it. But could a wh*re like you afford it?"


    Vanessa bit her lip and said, "Give me my phone. I''ll call Julien and ask him to bring you money.


    He''ll give you as much as he can, I''m sure of it."


    Fiona sneered, "Do you really believe that he''lle to save you with money?"


    "Yes I believe in him." There was no reason. Vanessa was certain that Julien was willing to pay any


    price in order to save her. Also, it had been quite some time since she had disappeared. Julien must


    be searching high and low for her now.


    "Do you think I''m a fool? Chatterton Town is the Kyle family''s territory. I would be digging my own


    grave if I ask him to send money over." Before deciding to abduct Vanessa, Fiona had thought of all


    the possible oues. She had prepared for the worst.


    The worst oue would be that Julien managed to find out her scheme and send people to hunt


    her down...By that time, however, the money would have been deposited in her bank ount


    overseas. Her son wouldn''t need to worry for the rest of his life.


    Vanessa finally caught on to what she was saying. "So it seems that you never intended to let me


    go alive."


    "What a smart girl! You managed to figure everything out. But can you guess what I n to do


    before I kill you?" Fiona let out an eerie smile. It felt like a dark cloud was looming over Vanessa''s


    head.


    "Fiona, what are you trying to do?" Vanessa asked warily.


    "Do you know what I did for a living before I married your father?"


    "I don''t want to know."


    "I used to be a criminal investigator. Those who work in this field know how to throw our own off the


    track. So I''ming clean by telling you, before I''m done with everything, there''s no way Julien will


    be able to track us down." Fiona waved her hand and summoned the man whose face was filled


    with scars. "Patrick, untie her."


    Without uttering a word, Patrick walked toward Vanessa. He lifted Vanessa off the ground by


    grabbing the rope. Then, he flipped her over and threw her hard onto the ground. It hurt so much


    that Vanessa curled into a ball.


    Patrick unraveled the ropes and set her hands and legs free. Instantly, Vanessa felt more


    comfortable. She instinctively wriggled her body, but Patrick immediately stomped on her body.


    "God d*mn it! Stop moving!"


    Patrick''s footnded right on Vanessa''s chest, making her breathless. She cursed in her heart,


    "These motherf*ckers, they''d better kill me. If they don''t, I swear I''ll teach them a


    lesson."


    "You''re such a b*tch, Vanessa. You were just lucky a few years ago that Julien saved you in time."


    Stroking Vanessa''s face, Fiona smiled gloomily. "Today, we''re in the same situation again. I''d like to


    see if Julien can appear in time like thest time. Let''s see if you''re still as lucky as before."
