On the eve of her wedding, Whitney Valentine and her younger stepsister were kidnapped, but her fiancé only
rescued her sister.
The kidnapper lunged at her with a sneer, tearing at her clothes with a vicious rip.
Still in disbelief. Whitney waited foolishly, yelling, “No! Please wait more… Simon Perlman said he’d pay the ransom.”
With a mocking laugh, the kidnapper dialed a number and barked, “Monica Valentine, your elder sister sure is a fool!”
Whitney froze.
Her sister’s mocking voice came through the phone. “You really believed that knight–in–shining–armor crap? Let me tell you the truth: I’m carrying Simon’s baby!”
Whitney’s face turned ashen. “When… When did you two get together?”
“Simon’s always loved me. He only used you to start his business! Now that he’s CEO, guess why you’re the one kidnapped?”
Chills crawled up Whitney’s arms as she shook her head in disbelief. “I don’t believe it. Put Simon on the phone!”
Then a man’s voice that came through was cold and remorseless. “Whitney, you’re no longer of any value to me. Take care on your ‘journey.”
Boom!
Whitney’s world collapsed into a pallor of despair.
Eight years of love, all just a ploy? He wanted her dead so he could take over the company!
Whitney’s tears fell down her cheeks.
Monica’s twisted laugh cut through. “He wanted to leave you a pretty corpse, but I’ll make sure you die ugly. Have your fun with her, then leave her to the wolves!”
“Monica, I treated you like my own sister. Why are you doing this? Mom and Dad won’t let you get away with
this!”
“Do you think Mom and Dad really loved you?” Monica sneered coldly.
