Chasing the Unexpected

Chapter 203

“I know I was wrong. I’ll go to the police and turn myself in. Will you let me go?” Jacqueline pleaded.

Nyla shook her head. “I’m afraid that won’t work. Even if you turn yourself in, the Rainfords could still bail you out.

“What I want is for you to experience the same pain and fear that Valarie went through. Only then will you understand what she endured.

Jacqueline felt a wave of despair. She hadn’t expected Nyla to be so ruthless. She started to regret listening to Erin and taking action against Valarie. If she had just listened to her parents and apologized to Nyla, she wouldn’t be in this desperate. situation now.

Wait… Erin was the one who had instigated her. If she could just shift the blame onto Erin, maybe she could save herself!

At that thought, she looked up at Nyla.

“Ms. Jayston, Erin was the one who directed me,” she revealed.

Nyla frowned and looked at her coldly. “Erin has no grievance with Valarie. What could she gain from having you harm Valarie?”

Jacqueline shook her head, her voice trembling. “I–I don’t know, but she told me that if I ruined Valarie, Tom would be with me and save the Rainfords… Ir–really didn’t mean to harm Valarie Please, s–spare me!”

“So it was Erin who instructed you to take compromising photos of Valarie and to force her to jump?” Nyla asked.

“Yes! She made me do it all!” Jacqueline confirmed.

After the recording ended, there was a brief silence before Erin’s voice, now cold, came through. “Ms. Nyla, do you believe Jacqueline’s claims?”

Nyla lowered her gaze and said slowly, “I didn’t want to believe it, but Jacqueline’s accusations seemed serious, so I wanted to ask you, Ms. Hulle.”

“She says it was my Instructions. Does she have any proof?” Erin asked.

Before Nyla could respond, Jacqueline, sitting on the floor, snarled, “Erin, don’t deny it! You were the one who directed me when we went shopping that day!”

“Jacqueline, you need evidence to make such claims. If you don’t have proof, keep quiet. If you continue to slander me, not just me, but the Hulles won’t let you off either!” Erin warned.

With that, she hung up.

Nyla looked at Jacqueline with indifference. Do you have any evidence?”

Jacqueline was frozen in place. How could she have any evidence? She had never expected things to escalate this far.

Seeing her silence, Nyla said coldly, “Since you don’t have evidence, stop wasting

time.”

“No, I don’t want to jump! I’ll die if I jump!” Jacqueline cried.

Nyla didn’t respond, but the two men beside her moved toward Jacqueline.

She frantically backed away, but the room was too small, and within a minute, she was caught.

The men held her arms and legs and began to lift her toward the window.

Jacqueline was filled with terror as she struggled desperately. “No, please! I beg you! Let me go! I truly understand my mistake!”

Just as the men were about to throw her out of the window, a cold, angry voice echoed from the doorway. “Stop!”
