Chapter 70: Courting Death
Chapter 70: Courting Death
"Get away from me, you bitch!"
Lyndsy kicked Giselle aside and stared ferociously at Patricia.
She then kicked the young woman in the stomach once again and uttered, "Like mother, like daughter!"
Giselle glared at Lyndsy when she heard her remark.
Struggling, Giselle clambered her way over to Patricia so she could protect her with her own body.
Patricia was her beloved daughter.She had owed her too much.
At that moment, she couldn't bear to watch Yolanda and Lyndsy kill her daughter.
"Yolanda Lin, what do you want?"
Giselle roared.Eyes wide open, she stared at Yolanda.This was the first time in her life that she had shouted in a fit of rage.
"I just want to teach her a lesson, so she'll act accordingly in the future," Yolanda said as she looked down at Giselle arrogantly.
Thinking of all the suffering she had to endure over the past few years made her so angry she gritted her teeth.
She wanted nothing more than to torture Giselle and Patricia and give them agony.Stepping forward, Lyndsy kicked Giselle away.
"Mother, why are you talking to her so much? It's time to take action!" she retorted.
A devious smile formed on her lips after she said that.Lyndsy's expression frightened Yolanda a bit.
As much as she wanted her daughter to be stronger so she wouldn't be bullied by others, she couldn't help but be concerned about the type of person her daughter was becoming.
"Mother, have you forgotten why we're here?"
Lyndsy impatiently glared at Yolanda, showing her no respect.
The only thought on Lyndsy's mind was ruining Patricia's reputation so that she would be forced to leave Zac's side.
‘The sooner she leaves Zac, the quicker he will be mine.And once I become Zac's woman, I'll have endless money and servants.' Yolanda frowned and pursed her lips helplessly.
Then she walked to Lyndsy, and the two of them pulled Patricia up.
Lyndsy stepped hard on Giselle's outstretched hand before striding away along with Yolanda.
Struggling to get up, Giselle could only helplessly watch their receding figures.
She was fraught with concern for Patricia's safety.
However, her next attempt to stand caused her to black out.A long while after that, she was woken up by the sound of a concerned voice.
Slowly opening her eyes, she looked at the man who was shaking her body.
Due to the dazzling sunlight, Giselle felt a little dizzy.She could not clearly see the person's face who was attending to her, but she somehow thought that he seemed familiar.
"Mom, where is Patricia? Do you know where she is?"
Zac shouted anxiously.
He grasped Giselle’s hand tightly.
Upon seeing Giselle in this terrible state, he couldn't help feeling worried about Patricia's safety.
‘Why didn't Patricia tell me what was happening? She is so foolish for running into such a dangerous place alone!’ he thought inwardly.
Giselle felt a tingling pain in her body upon hearing the distress in Zac's voice.
Fully regaining consciousness, she was able to see Zac clearly.
Grabbing him by the arm, she begged, "Zac, you have to go and save Patricia.She...may be in great danger."
Yolanda and Lyndsy were the definitions of evil.
The thought of them torturing Patricia brought tears to Giselle's eyes.
She became heartbroken the more she thought of the suffering Patricia would face at their hands.
"Zac, please save Patricia!"
Pleading, Giselle could do nothing else but put her faith in Zac.
Hearing Giselle begging had stunned him.
Heart in his throat, Zac couldn't help but panic.
He hoped that nothing terrible was happening to Patricia.Drawing shallow breaths, a flash of worry and anger crossed Zac's face.
In his eyes, anyone who dared harm his woman was courting death.
"Mom, don't worry.I will surely save Patricia."
As soon as Zac finished speaking, he supported Giselle, carried her to the nearby pavilion, and told her not to walk around by herself.
He had already informed the Lowell family to pick her up, so she would be okay.
His main priority now was finding Patricia.
From the moment he had heard she was in danger, his heart started pounding in his chest as if he was fearful of something. "Check out all the people and employees who were at the rose garden over the last couple of days,"
Zac shouted to his secretary over the phone.
Hearing this had left his secretary too shocked to say anything.
This left her wondering what had happened to Zac, and what caused him to become so angry.
Zac's behavior, however, didn't come as a surprise to his secretary.
Since Zac's divorce, his secretary found that his behavior had become abnormal.
"Did you not hear what I said?"
Zac roared like a furious lion.Hurriedly, his secretary replied, "I'll check it for you now!"
She immediately hung up the phone.
If she was any slower, she would have been punished by Zac.
Meanwhile, Lyndsy and Yolanda managed to carry Patricia into a small wooden room in the rose garden.
They threw the woman onto the bed and then both patted their clothes in disgust.
"I wouldn't have done such a thing normally.But I need to ruin this bitch's reputation and make her leave Zac!"
Lyndsy pouted and glared at Patricia.
Seeing Patricia sleeping so peacefully annoyed Lyndsy so much she wanted to give her two slaps.
Noticing this, Yolanda quickly stopped her.
After casting a warning glance at her daughter, Yolanda shook her head and said, "My dear daughter, you don't need to act so recklessly.Someone will deal with this bitch later."
Hearing this didn't relieve Lyndsy of her anger.
Glancing at Patricia coldly, she turned to Yolanda and asked suspiciously, "Mom, have you really arranged everything?"
In the past, she had thought that Yolanda was incredible at handling everything.
But now, she had her doubts about Yolanda's ability seeing that Patricia continued to evade her schemes.
This made Lyndsy lose confidence in her mother.
Dotingly reaching out her index finger to touch the tip of Lyndsy's nose, Yolanda responded confidently, "Of course, I've arranged everything! We just need to wait for the good news."
As soon as she finished speaking, Yolanda’s phone rang. Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
She didn't answer the call but immediately called back and then hung up directly.
Lyndsy didn't understand what Yolanda was doing, nor did she care.
She just wanted to see Patricia disappear before her eyes as soon as possible.
After that, Yolanda patted Lyndsy's shoulder and said proudly, "My darling daughter, a good show is about to begin.Let's leave so as not to interrupt."
Then she arched her eyebrows at Lyndsy.
Hearing that, Lyndsy smiled with satisfaction.
She raised her chin proudly and announced, "Patricia, Zac is mine.After this, don't think you'll be able to snatch him away from me again."
After Lyndsy finished speaking, she and Yolanda left arm in arm, merrily talking and laughing.
After a long time, Patricia slowly opened her eyes.
She felt dizzy and a little uncomfortable.
Just as she was about to calm herself down, a pair of meaty hands grabbed her.She awoke suddenly with a start.
"Who are you? What do you want?"
Terrified, she curled up into a ball and stared at the lecherous middle-aged man.
Patricia vaguely recalled who this man was.
He seemed to be a nouveau riche who just started becoming rich this year.
It was said that he was worth hundreds of millions overnight.
"It doesn't matter who I am.The most important thing is that you will become my woman in the future."
The man stared at Patricia lustfully, as if he was watching a naked body.
