Esther gritted her teeth and finally realized how negligent she was.
Niamh was fine and not injured, so she should let those two men deal with her.
She should be looking for Ava, who was beaten so badly that she could not even walk on her own.
Esther was also a little aware of the reason why Niamh would take the initiative to show up here. Clearly, she was doing this on purpose.
“Eveline, you’re smart, but I’m not stupid. Since you ran out on purpose, it proves that b*tch Ava is in this building. Well, since you can run so fast, go ahead. I’d like to see where that b*tch Ava can run to now.”
Esther’s gloomy eyes narrowed fiercely before she turned around and walked upstairs. She looked for Ava from room to room.
Outside the building, Niamh was running along the damaged and bumpy road. She glanced back from time to time, making sure that the two men were still desperately chasing after her.
The sky was getting darker and darker, she could not feel any warmth in the light from the sunset when it hither.
After running for a distance, Niamh slowed down a little as she was running out of strength. Then, she saw the two men who were chasing after her get closer and closer.
The two men also saw that Niamh was a little tired now. They both had smug smiles on their faces.
At this moment, Niamh tripped over a sharp stone under her feet, she immediately lost her balance and fell to the ground.
When she tried to stand up, she found that her ankle was twisted and she could not stand up at all.
Seeing this situation, the two men stopped abruptly and started to guffaw loudly.
“Mrs. Waldburg, do you still wish to run?” one of the men asked with a wretched smile.
“Mrs. Waldburg, you are really good at tricking people. You attacked US with pepper spray just now and we couldn’t even open our eyes. Then, you deliberately showed up to distract us. You have a lot of ideas.”
“We initially had tender, protective feelings for women like you, but since you’ve tricked us twice, don’t blame US for being ruthless.”
After the man said that, he showed a sinister look on his face.
“Wait!”
Niamh cried out to stop them.
The two men were slightly stunned. Then, more evil and prouder smiles appeared on their faces.
“Mr. Waldburg, are you going to beg US for mercy?” 3
Niamh lifted her eyes, not panicking even when she was in the face of danger. “I want to talk terms with you.”
“Terms? what terms?” The man was curious.
“Whatever Esther is giving you, I ’ll give you double, ” Niamh answered straightforwardly.
When the two men heard that, they seemed to fall into deep thought before bursting into laughter a few seconds later. “Mrs. whitman, you’re overthinking. People like US are extremely vengeful. You can’t use money to settle this matter anymore after how you tricked US just now.”
Niamh furrowed her brows, “what do you want?”
“What do we want?” The two men lifted their heads to look at each other, their eyes filled with evil. “Mrs. Waldburg, you’re so pretty, what do you think we want? Since you were so disobedient just now, we shall teach you a lesson.”
Niamh’s eyes were filled with terror after she heard that. She tried to stand up to back away, but her ankle was in so much pain that she could not stand no matter what.
Seeing this, the two men rubbed their hands and walked toward Niamh.
However, Niamh suddenly shouted, “Be careful, there’s a snake under your feet! ”
The two men paused subconsciously when they heard that, but soon, they realized that Niamh might be fooling them again.
The weather had not turned warm, so how could there be snakes?
“Stop talking nonsense with this woman, she has too many tricks up her sleeves. Just grab her and drag her into the house to teach her a lesson. Let’s see if she still dares to fool US again after that.” One of the men was already agitated after being fooled so many times. He could not hold himself back anymore.
The other man also agreed, so he stopped talking nonsense. Then, the two of them rushed toward Niamh without saying a word.
However, just as they were about to walk in front of Niamh, the two suddenly stepped on air as the feeling of weightlessness immediately overcame them.
“Ah!”
Thud! Thud!
After the scream, Niamh heard two muffled falls in succession.
Even though it was dark, Niamh could see a thin layer of dirt floating up from the pit in front of her.
“Damn, why is there such a big hole here?”
“Hurry up! otherwise, we’ll ruin this!”
“It’s so high! How should I get up there?”
“You can’t get up here, of course,” Niamh’s sweet voice came from above the heads of the two men.
The two men raised their heads and looked over at the same time, only to see Niamh giving them a proud and deep smile.
“I reminded you just now that there was danger. You were the ones who insisted on walking forward.”
When they heard what Niamh said, the men realized that they had been tricked by Niamh again. “Damn it!”
The men were not reconciled and could not accept this, but right now, they could only watch as Niamh laughed at them.
Niamh did not want to waste time either. She turned around and ran without saying a word.
The men finally understood that Niamh did not twist her ankle at all and had faked her fall, she was just pretending so that they would put their guard down!
How clever.
The two men had no choice but to admire her, but at the same time, they did not want to stay in this pit and wait for their deaths. Hence, they tried to get up. However, after a while, they really could not come up with a way to climb up. The pit was at least two meters tall. 1
Esther did not know what was going on outside, she searched for Ava’s whereabouts from room to room, but after searching for so long, she still could not find any trace of Ava.
Esther wondered where could a living and breathing person like Ava hide, which safe place would Niamh hide her now that she was covered in injuries and had no strength to walk?
As she wondered about it, Esther suddenly thought of something.
Was the most dangerous place not the safest place? 1
Ava was on the third floor where she was originally held in!
Esther immediately walked back, when she entered the room, she heard the two men shouting from outside the balcony.
It was only then Esther realized that the two men had fallen into a pit. she immediately guessed that it was Niamh’s idea.
“Eveline, you have so many tricks up your sleeves. Since you dare to play me a fool like this, then I won’t have mercy on you anymore.” “You’ve never been merciful since the beginning.”
Esther turned around sharply when she heard the statement from behind her.
“Eveline, even two big men can’t handle you. I really underestimated you.” Esther’s words were full of irony, but her eyes were full of deep resentment.
Niamh approached her with an indifferent smile. “ It’s not that you underestimated me, but since I’ve died once, I’ll always be cautious no matter what I do.”
Esther frowned. She had heard about Niamh’s past.
She chuckled coldly. “Eveline, where’s Ava?”
“Do you think I’ll tell you?” Niamh’s eyes grew colder. “Esther, this is not how you should love your child as a mother. You’ll soon pay the price for your crimes.”
“Hmph.” Esther chuckled again, “The price? Yes, it seems that I can’t win against you, Eveline. But since things have come to this point, I don’t want to deal with you anymore. I don’t want to waste any more time either.”
As she said that. Esther suddenly pulled out a switchblade from her pocket.
“You and Ava have ruined Naya’s life anyway. I can’t win this game for Naya. Since I’m going to prison no matter what, then why don’t I drag both of you down with me? We’ll all be losers in this game! ”
Esther clenched the handle of the switchblade and charged straight toward Niamh. Niamh swiftly avoided the attack and slapped the switchblade out of Esther’s hand.
Esther widened her eyes in astonishment. She did not expect Niamh to not only have such quick reflexes but also the ability to easily subdue her.
Esther was furious. She pushed Niamh away to pick up the switchblade. Then, Niamh raised her foot and kicked the switchblade to the side.
“Eveline, I’ll kill you!” Esther was instantly annoyed and angry. At this moment, she was not behaving like a normal person at all, let alone a rich lady, when she grabbed Niamh’s clothes, she started tugging on them.
Niamh did not want to entangle herself with Esther too much. She wanted to break free from Esther.
However, Esther was not only unwilling to let go but she also reached out to grab Niamh’s hair like a shrew.
Niamh was caught off guard. Esther seemed to have caught Niamh’s weakness, she then raised his foot and kicked Niamh’ s knee. 1
“Kneel! Eveline, kneel!”
