Feeling the knife wandering across her face, Joy Quinn was terrified.
She had only just begun to look prettier, and now she was going to be reverted to her old self?
She cried and wailed, trying to dodge the knife.
But Nina Quinn wouldn’t let her go: "Joy, it’s not that I won’t let you go. It’s because the second sister you always trusted the most is ignoring your life for the Quinn Family’s fortune..."
That sinister gaze made Joy Quinn feel at one point that Nina Quinn not only wanted to ruin her face but also her life...
In that moment, Joy Quinn closed her eyes in near despair.
But just then, July Quinn’s voice came through the phone: "Hold on."
"What, changed your mind?" Nina Quinn’s knife was still pointed at Joy, but her face was smiling at July Quinn.
"What will it take for you to let her go?" July Quinn had no time for nonsense.
Because just a moment ago, she saw a glimpse of her past self in Joy Quinn.
"It’s quite simple, don’t sign the contract now and come over to us to pick up Joy."
Nina Quinn then gave an address, which was a warehouse under the Quinn Group. Its location was relatively remote and seldom used.
"I’ll be there right away."
After hanging up the video call, July Quinn immediately turned the car around and sped towards the address Nina had given.
"Don’t you think this woman is clearly setting a trap for you to fall into?"
From the back, Susan Carter rolled her well-restrained eyes.
If there wasn’t a trap, why would the woman arrange a meeting in such a remote location?
Only a fool like July is stupid enough to dive headfirst into a pig pen!
But what frustrated Susan Carter more was that she couldn’t beat this pig and was locked firmly by her.
While Susan Carter was internally cursing, she heard July Quinn ask him:
"Then why do you think I brought you along today?"
Susan Carter was stunned: "..."
How come this is a bit different from the typical romance novel plot?
Usually, when the malicious supporting character sets a trap, the heroine falls for it and cries pitifully.
But with July Quinn —
As soon as the malicious supporting character sets a trap, the heroine executes a counter-trap, leaving the supporting character crying miserably?
He couldn’t help but feel overwhelmed internally.
Suddenly, being locked so tightly by July Quinn didn’t seem as unjustified.
But another issue arose.
If July Quinn is this smart, does he, as the mercenary leader, still have a chance to escape alive?
While Susan Carter was deeply questioning his soul, July Quinn had already stopped the car in front of the remote warehouse gate.
A few minutes later, July Quinn, with Susan Carter, entered the warehouse and reached the innermost end.
Joy Quinn was just as she appeared in the video call, tied to a chair.
But Nina Quinn was nowhere to be seen.
"Joy, don’t be afraid! I’m here..."
July Quinn had no time to think carefully and hurriedly stepped forward to untie the rope on Joy Quinn.
But Joy Quinn shook her head desperately, trying to tell her something.
With a large towel stuffed in her mouth, all that could be heard was muffled wailing.
At this moment, many footsteps approached from behind.
But July Quinn didn’t even look back, continuing to focus on untying the ropes on Joy Quinn.
Soon, the ropes on Joy Quinn’s hands and feet were untied, and the towel in her mouth was pulled out.
"Second sister, run! The eldest sister has brought many people to deal with you. She said she wants you to come today without leaving."
At that moment, Nina Quinn’s voice also came from behind them: "Isn’t it too late to tell her this now?"
July Quinn turned around to see Nina Quinn leading over a dozen goons, their arms covered in tattoos of green dragons and white tigers...
