"I believe so," he said in a somber voice.th.
Damn it! The man must have come here to exact his vendetta against Elizabeth.
Elizabeth was in danger! The moment she realized this, Janet gripped the banister and made to race back upstairs.She needed to prevent another sordid tragedy from happening.
Brandon acted quickly, his arm reaching out to stop Janet in her tracks and pull her back, "Take her away," he instructed the female bodyguard.

"Just stay away.I'll take care of it."
Brandon took off his coat and unbuttoned his cuffs.He tossed the coat over to Janet and addressed the bodyguard.
"It will be dangerous upstairs.Take her to the car and wait for me there."

With a sullen expression, Janet tried to rush forward and run upstairs again.

If Janet persisted on staying, he just might forget about helping Elizabeth altogether.

Once everything was in order, the men started to leave the unit.
Elizabeth's aunt stood at the door to thank them one by one and send them off.
Elizabeth was not good with this sort of thing, so she only offered them a smile and a nod, and then went on to organize her design drafts.
Jorge hovered behind the cabinet he had just put down and glared viciously in her direction.He waited until she was distracted and decided it was time.He pulled out his knife and lunged toward her.
"You bitch! You made me like this! I will kill you for all you did to me!"
Elizabeth's aunt whirled around at the sound of a man's roar, and she saw one of the workers trying to attack her niece with a blade.
In a panic, she rushed over without thinking.
"You bastard! What do you think you're doing?" Elizabeth looked up just then. novelbin

Shocked out of her wits, she could only freeze and stare.
Who was he? A terrifying thought flashed in her mind.
In an instant, she knew the answer to her question.It was Jorge! He had come to her for revenge.
Elizabeth finally sprang into action.She tried to dodge him, but she was trembling so much that she ended up backing herself up to a corner.Her fear was obvious and palpable, and Jorge took great satisfaction in that.

"Auntie!"

"Jorge!" she screamed in rage.
"Have you lost your mind? You can't just go around, killing people! It's against the law!"
But Jorge didn't seem to care about any of that at all.
"Get out of my way!" he snarled, pushing Elizabeth's aunt to the side.

"Now, you're going to hell, bitch!"
