However, now it seemed to her that it was far from a misunderstanding. �That woman is nothing but a vicious viper!�

�If that�s so, I won�t be showing any mercy either. Have them take action!� Francine said with an expressionless face, her eyes frosty.

This order was basically sentencing Renee to death.

As Renee headed towards the parking lot, she found her head heavy, and she was feeling more disoriented the more she walked.

�Alright, everyone, get in position! And� action!�

Behind her was the director giving orders, followed by the sound of the clapperboard.

Shirley had already left the waiting area by then, and she now stood by the cliff for yet another shoot.

Amongst her dizziness, she noticed Shirley�s long hair and white dress. It was rather odd, but she found her looking quite similar to Briar, who she accidentally pushed down this cliff three months ago.

Shirley and Briar�s faces started merging into one, passing through the group of staff with an eerie smile. She was staring straight at her as blood started dripping out of the corners of her eyes and mouth�

�Ah! No! Don�t come near me!� Renee screamed as she blacked out, falling straight to the ground.

After some time, as she regained consciousness slightly, she felt a bucket of ice-cold water poured onto her face.

She opened her eyes in an instant, realizing she was currently lying in a dark, moist warehouse. She had a leash connected to a metal chain that left a red sore mark around her neck, as if she were a dog.

�So you�ve finally woken up, witch!� A cold voice came from somewhere higher within the warehouse.

Francine soon appeared in her field of vision, with Seraphina right by her side. Their eyes were filled with strong hatred as if they could shoot poisonous venom at any given time.

�Miss Francine, now that this wench has woken up, let�s just get this over with,� Seraphina persuaded the old woman, wishing she could cut Renee into thousands of pieces.

She couldn�t forget the pain she felt when the group of men assaulted her. Hence, as Quinton�s sister, she thought Renee should naturally be the first to experience karma and retribution for their sins.

Francine, on the other hand, was holding onto the metal railing in front of her. She stared at the woman with a scowl, her voice filled with disappointment as she questioned. �What do you have to say for yourself, Renee Everheart?�

She was actually quite conflicted when it came to her opinion of Renee. She disapproved of her at the start but slowly grew fond of her with time.

Yet now, she was consumed by resentment, unable to accept that the woman her son loved so deeply was such a vile, manipulative person.

Despite having �evidence� on Renee�s �crimes,� she still hoped that there was a chance that they could be wrong. JrNovels.com
