Chapter 471

There was glass, but because her back was facing it, she couldn’t see clearly, so she could only adjust the angle bit by bit and cut the rope quickly.

However, the hemp rope was more durable than she had imagined.

In the dark night, the sound of the hemp rope being cut was especially clear. Valerie had to stop every once in a while. She observed Ethan and saw that he was snoring loudly and that Ruth was also sleeping soundly. Only then did Valerie speed up.

There was the smell of blood in the air. Valerie’s heart was pounding and her head was dizzy. She bit her lips, the stinging pain on the back of her hand reminding her that she had to move quickly. Otherwise, it would be too late when the sun rose.

Achilly wind blew in from the window. Valerie shivered from the cold. She tiptoed and leaned over forcefully. Standing for an extended period made her legs tremble.

Because of her fever, she could not stand steadily. And not a single piece of rope had been cut through yet, so she was indeed a little anxious.

Hurry. If Ethan discovered her, there was really nothing she could do!

However, no matter how anxious she was, Valerie could not speed up. She did not know how much time had passed before she heard a click and felt her wrists loosen. She finally heaved a sigh of relief. One of the ropes had been cut! Valerie Warren ignored the pain and continued to tiptoe After more than ten minutes, the rope was completely cut. She quickly loosened the ones at her ankles and knees.

Valerie rubbed her arm that was almost numb from being tied up. The back of her hand was still bleeding. She could not care less now. She had to escape as soon as possible.

The good news was that, while she had been trying to break free, the rain had stopped and it was almost dawn.

Valerie rushed to the door. However, just as she cracked open the door slightly, she unexpectedly discovered that a thin wire tied a row of bells to the doorknob and lockt

What!

If she had opened the door and walked out just now, Ethan would definitely have discovered her the moment the bells rang. Valerie was sure that Ruth was not so scheming, so these bells could only be Ethan’s doing. He really made sure to close all the loopholes and was actually so vigilant

Valerie was furious. She could not help but sneer. It seemed like Ethan really wanted to kill her.

Since he didn’t treat her as a human, he couldn’t blame her for no longer playing nice….

Valerie closed the door and looked around for a weapon.

God works in mysterious ways. This dilapidated house used to be a granary warehouse. Now that the granary was no longer in use, there were still some tools remaining. There was a shovel in the comer, just beside Ruth. Valerie took a deep breath and tiptoed over, grabbing the shovel in her

hand

The biggest threat in this house had to be dealt with first.

Valerie went straight to Ethan. She mustered up her courage and licked her lips. She did not want to do this, but once Ethan woke up, she would not

be able to survive!

Oh right, she was also pregnant. For the sake of her child, she could not be soft–hearted!

At the thought of this, she raised the shovel high.

Ethan seemed to have anticipated the danger and suddenly stopped snoring. He squinted and opened his eyes a biule. Looking at the shadow in front of him, he could not react for a moment and asked in surprise. “Who is it?”

Valerie sneered. “The Grim Reaper!”

After saying that, Valerie raised the shovel and hit him with it

There was a loud bang, and Ethan promptly woke up from the pain. However, he did not get knocked out immediately. Blood splattered everywhere as Ethan held his bleeding head. He was first in disbelief before a vicious anger took over. “Valerie, how dare you. How dare you….”

He was actually planning to pounce on Valerie.

Valerie said froudly, “You gave me no choice“:

She was also ruthless. Then, the used the shovel to hit Ethan again and again, knocking him out cold.

The loud sounds woke Ruth up. When she opened her eyes and saw the scene before her, she was instantly scared silly. “Valerie, you’re crazy. He’s

your father. You actually dare do this

Valerie turned around and raised the shovel. With the light from the window, the blood on the shovel could vaguely B

blood even on Valerie’s face. The warm smell of blood was nauseating. Valerie wiped her face and gave Ruth a sinister smile. That’s right. I’m crazy. If you don’t want to die, be obedient and cooperative!”

Ruth immediately cowered. Although she usually threw tantrums, she cherished her life more.

“Don’t kill me, don’t kill me.” Her voice was trembling,

She had never seen Valerie so reckless..
