Chapter 260

"Susanne, you need to stop with these jokes," Summer said. Despite her words, her body gave away her fear; she stepped back, visibly terrified.

Just as she had retreated around ten feet, Susanne reached out and grabbed her.

"Summer, where do you think you're going? Weren't you giving me an opportunity when you brought me out to a place like this?

"Now that I have you here, once I take care of you, James will be mine." Susanne's gaze sharpened as she spoke.

Simultaneously, she slipped her hand into her coat, as if reaching for something.

What was she reaching for?

A knife? Or perhaps a hammer?

As that thought occurred to her, she wondered if Susanne had been prepared for this.

At that moment, Summer's mind raced with countless possibilities. Had Susanne learned about her invitation and seen it as the perfect opportunity to carry out a murderous plan?

Or was this a collaboration between Howe and Susanne, a trap within a trap? Had they planned to eliminate her there?
