    His expression froze for a moment before he exined, “How could I not think about them? I’m here


    today precisely because I’ve considered them.


    —


    You don’t know what ra promised me if Iplete this task, hand over the photos and videos to her,


    N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner.


    I can get a cool eighty grand in one shot!”


    He gestured with his fingers, “Do you have any idea how long that money can support us? Of course,


    you celebrities with your thousand-dor outfits wouldn’t understand the struggles of us regr folks.


    But no matter, once I get this done, I’ll have that money. And believe me, my wife will be over the moon


    when I bring that cash home.”


    Ellis reached out and grabbed the rope binding lvy, intending to haul her over, but Ivy mustered all her


    strength andnded a fierce kick to his belly when he got close.


    However, her restraints made the kickcked its full force.


    “Hey, don’t bite the hand that feeds you, alright? I’ve been nice because you’re one of my favorite


    actresses, but don’t go thinking I won’t get tough.


    Damn, you’ve gone and bruised my belly. Now I’m gonna have to teach you a lesson.”


    ra had already given Ivy a beating before, so Ellis had no qualms about kicking Ivy in the stomach


    again.


    Ivy curled up in pain, unable to even scream for help.


    Even as shey there unable to lift her head, she preferred being beaten to being disgraced.


    She knew what ra had in mind, how she had always plotted to hurt her with such


    malicious schemes.


    Back in the day, Ivy had been bullied by ra relentlessly, but all she wanted was to leave the Dunhill


    family, never once stooping to their level of malice.


    Why couldn’t ra let go of her?


    Ivy couldn’t understand it, and the pain and humiliation were unbearable. She was thinking about


    Balfour, whether he woulde to rescue her.


    \Meanwhile, Balfour’s brow was furrowed with concern. Despite the vigers and the


    others urging him not to go in himself – what if there was an ambush waiting?


    His role as CEO of the Howard Group was tomand from the rear, to stabilize morale, but Balfour


    refused without a second thought,


    “Move quickly, the longer we wait, the more chance there, is for something to go wrong.”

    A squad scaled the wall on the outside, while Balfour approached cautiously from above the staircase.


    They had already scoped out the ce. ra and Ivy were on the second floor. Before even reaching


    the staircase, Balfour could hear thuds of fists hitting flesh from above.


    “You little wretch, not giving in, huh? I’m gonna beat you until you do!”


    Just as Ellis was loosening the rope on Ivy’s upper body and leaning in with the intention of assaulting


    her, Ivy took her chance. She bit down hard on his ear, not letting go even as. she tasted blood in her


    mouth. It wasn’t until Ellis hit her head several times that she finally released him. As she fell back onto


    the bed, Ellis kicked her repeatedly.


    Angered and embarrassed, Ellis had thought this woman would be easy to handle.


    ra had been gone for a good ten minutes, and he hadn’t been able to get close to her. He felt his


    pride as a man had been deeply insulted by Ivy, and now his blows were merciless, no longer caring


    that she was once an actress he admired.


    Balfour clenched his fists so tight his knuckles whitened, each sound felt like a blow to his own chest.


    Knowing he could not remain calm and not wanting to alert the enemy, he waited for the signal from the


    other team’s captain before charging in.


    Ellis was startled when a flood of people suddenly rushed in.
