Chapter 689
Jessica was overjoyed. She had finally managed to escape.
She glanced around cautiously. Everything was quiet–completely still. No one knew she had slipped away from the Larson family’s estate under the cover of night. Now, she could move about freely and carry out whatever plans she had, without anyone suspecting a thing.
A cold, bitter smile curled on her lips. She was going to turn all the trouble Wendy had caused her over the past few days into punishment for Bella.
Without another word, she immed and walked away.
Jessic soon arrived at the kidnappers‘ hideout.
The man in black opened the door to let her in. “About time you showed up!”

Without hesitation, Jessica slapped him hard across the face. “How dare you talk to me with that attitude on the phone? Is that how you treat your boss?”
The man clutched his cheek and forced a sheepish smile. “Sorry. We were just worried you wouldn’t come. We’re all on the same side now. Please calm down, and let’s take care of those two hot potatoes.”
Even the kidnappers knew it was only a matter of time before this dragged on too long. They didn’t want to keep Bella and Angela any longer than necessary.
Jessica asked, “Are they still locked up in the room?”
“Yes, we didn’t let them out at all.”
Jessica picked up a mask and slipped it over her face. Then she changed into all black, disguising herself completely. “Let’s go see them.”
“Alright.”
The man in black pushed open the door to the small, dark room, and Jessica stepped inside.
Inside, Angela and Bella were already asleep. But at the sound of the door, they woke instantly. Angela immediately wrapped her arms protectively around Bella and glared at Jessica.
“Who are you? Are you the one behind our kidnapping?”
Jessica’s voice came out distorted through a voice changer, cold and commanding as she looked down at them. “You’re right. I
am.”
Angela’s voice trembled with anger. “What did Bella and I ever do to you? Why would you kidnap us? Don’t you know that’s against the law?”
Jessica sneered, “You’re sure talkative for someone who’s been kidnapped.”
Angela stood her ground. “Do you even know who I am? I’m Angela Hawk! If you hurt me, you’re in big trouble.”
Bella and Angela had been held captive for days. Their hair was messy and unkempt, but their spirits were surprisingly intact.
Jessica hesitated for a moment–she really didn’t want to hurt Angela.
Then Bella, in a childish voice, yelled, “You’re a bad person! You’d better let us go! My mommy will come and save us soon!”
The mention of Wendy infuriated Jessica. “You little brat, how dare you talk to me like that!” She turned to the kidnappers.”

Bring her to me. I’ll deal with her first!”
The men in black immediately moved to grab Bella.
But Angela threw herself in front of Bella.
“What are you doing? Stop!” Angela snarled.
Jessica stared at Angela in shock. Angela was standing up–her legs were healed!
“You can walk now?” Jessica asked, disbelief flooding her voice.

“Wendy healed me. She’s a wonder doctor, and she’s Bella’s mother. So I suggest you think twice before you act,” Angela warned.
What? Wendy had actually healed Angela’s legs?
Angela’s legs had been paralyzed for years, and famous doctors had declared it hopeless. Yet, Wendy had somehow healed them.
Over the past three years, Jessica had worked hard to win Angela’s favor, finally convincing the latter to side with her. But now, hearing Angela defend and voice her admiration for Wendy, Jessica felt her heart sink deep into the pit of despair.
