Chapter 930: All or nothing
"So, what do you say?"
Ivy observed Katherine attentively. The latter’s shoulder lowered, relaxing as she pondered about Ivy’s offer. Katherine leaned back, keeping her eyes fixed on Ivy.
"Hah!" A short chuckle escaped Katherine. "Miss Ivy Wei, you surely are gutsy. Did you seriously think I’d bite that offer? That’s tempting to you? Oh, I must have overestimated you."
The corner of her lips curled up into a smirk, eyes glinting malevolently. "Let me tell you something, Miss Ivy Wei. I can get you out of the picture without angering Dimitri. One of them is the one I mentioned a while ago. If you go out, there were at least three dead bodies from the earlier attack."
"Dying during times like this is normal," she continued. "So, if you are found dead and mutilated, it would surprise no one. All I have to do is injure myself a little, and they would have believed the intruders attacked me and killed you."
Katherine paused, leaning her face forward. "Why would I let you go when I can just kill you so you won’t bother him permanently? Do you think if you escape, he won’t bring you back again?"
This time, the cocky smirk on Ivy’s expression slowly vanished. Meanwhile, Katherine’s eyes were glinting.
"Your life right now is in the palm of my hands," Katherine remarked with certainty. "Do you think just because I am indulging with you in a conversation, I won’t know you’re waiting for a chance to snatch a weapon from this table?"
Ivy froze as her shoulder tensed up while Katherine laughed.
