Chapter 420

Beep, beep, beep!

Ryan called again.

Bruce and Joanna both rushed to answer the call. Bruce answered the call hastily.

"Hello..."

On the other end of the phone, Ryan said gloomily, "Joanna, come to Newcan Island alone! Don't play any tricks, or your daughter will die a horrible death." Joanna's voice sank. "Alright, don't worry. I'll go alone!"

"If I replace out that you and Bruce are playing any tricks behind the scenes. I'll chop your daughter into pieces and feed her to the dogs."

"Ryan, don't hurt Lilia. Don't worry, I'll go alone."

Crack!

Ryan sneered and hung up.

After hanging up. Bruce's malicious eyes darkened. "Joanna, I won't allow you to go. If somebody has got to go, it would be

1. me.

Joanna's expression was a little unfocused. "Bruce, this is a personal grudge between me and Ryan. Let me settle it alone."

"No, I won't let you go alone to meet your death. Kody, keep an eye on her. Don't let her leave Sherane Bay Villa."

"Yes, Mr. Everett."

Without waiting for the bodyguards to come forward, Joanna rushed to the coffee table and grabbed the fruit knife on the fruit plate. Then, she pointed the sharp blade at her neck.

"Bruce, don't push me any further. If you do this again, I'll kill myself right now."

Bruce was stunned by her unexpected actions. He tried his best to calm her down. "Joanna put the knife down first..."

Hiss!

Seeing Bruce approaching her, Joanna cut her wrist. Bright red blood flowed down her wrist in an instant.

"Don't come over!" Joanna's eyes were fierce as she stopped him from approaching.

Bruce's heart skipped a beat, and his eyes widened. "Joanna, are you crazy? Hurry up and put down the knife."

"Don't come any closer. If you do, I'll kill myself right here."

Joanna's eyes were filled with determination and ruthlessness. The fruit knife deepened on her wrist, and blood flowed more profusely.

Bruce was frightened. He did not dare to take another step, and his breathing quickened. "Joanna, don't be rash. I won't stop you anymore. Put down the knife first."

"Joanna. I can't live without you. You stay, I'll go."

Joanna glared at Bruce fiercely. Her eyes were filled with anxiety and mania. "Give me the car key!"

"Joanna..." Bruce looked at her helplessly.

"Give me the car key right now, Bruce. Don't push me any further," Joanna raised the knife, threatening to make another cut. Bruce didn't dare to hesitate any longer and immediately took a few steps back. "Alright, alright. I'll give you the car key. Don't do anything stupid. I beg you, don't do anything stupid."

"Give me the key right now. Come on."

"Okay, I will get you the car key."

Panicked, Bruce hurried to the basket and grabbed the car key. He shook them in front of Joanna. "Here, take the car key!" As long as she reached out to take the key, he would take the opportunity to snatch the knife from her hand.

Joanna had guessed Bruce's intentions. Her expression became even more anxious. "Put the car keys on the table. Hurry up!" Bruce didn't dare provoke her, fearing she would harm herself further. He placed the car keys on the coffee table,

Joanna grabbed the car key and rushed out of the house.

Chapter 420

"Don't come any closer. Stand back."

Seeing this, the bodyguards did not dare to stop her and could only stand rooted to the ground in a daze.

Joanna rushed into the garage, pressed the unlock button, and got into a Mercedes-Benz.

Afterward, she tore off a cleaning cloth from the car and wrapped it around her bleeding wrist.

Bruce chased after her and banged on the car window with all his might. "Joanna, Joanna..."

Buzz!

Joanna started the car and drove out of the garage.

It only took a minute for Joanne to drive from the garage to the gate.

"Open the gate now!"

...The security guard guarding the gate was stunned.

"Open the gate!" Joanna screamed.

"Oh, oh." The security guard quickly opened the gate.

Joanna stepped on the accelerator, and the car drove out of the courtyard of Sherane Bay Villa. The car went out of sight as it drove away along the driveway.

"Mr. Everett, what should we do? Should we drive and follow Mrs. Everett?"

Bruce took a deep breath. His heart was beating even faster. Joanna's personality was too intense. He did not dare to restrict her anymore.

Moreover, Ryan was extremely crazy. If he knew Joanna was being followed, he might kill both the mother and daughter.

"Mr. Everett, why don't we call the police!"

Bruce didn't say anything. He grabbed the car key and drove away from Sherane Bay Villa.

Joanna drove to Newcan Island.

Newcan Island is located on the outskirts of Greyport and is formed by hundreds of small islands.

It is also the most underdeveloped area of Greyport, surrounded by endless mountains and fishing ports.

The seafront docks are filled with numerous fishing boats. Many residents make a living by selling seafood.

It would take more than three hours to drive here from the city.

Joanna was worried about Lilia. She drove so quickly that it only took two hours to reach Newcan Island. After the car stopped, Joanna held the phone and waited anxiously for Ryan's call. She waited for about twenty minutes.

The phone finally rang.

Joanna immediately picked up the call. "Ryan, I've arrived at Newcan Island. Where are you?”

On the other end of the phone, Ryan smiled darkly. "What a loving mother-daughter relationship. You have quite the guts for your daughter."

Joanna was not interested in wasting time speaking with him. With great effort to remain calm, she said. "I'm here now. Please spare my daughter!"

"Where the hell are you? How am I supposed to meet you?"

"Wait where you are. I'll send someone to pick you up!"

Surrounded by small islands, one can observe the environment where she is located with a pair of binoculars.

After confirming that she came alone, Ryan finally heaved a sigh of relief.

After hanging up. Joanna got out of the car. She stood on the dock and looked around.

There were fishermen selling seafood everywhere. On the sea, many small fishing boats were floating around.

The fishermen stood on the fishing boat and enthusiastically hawked to passersby. "Do you want to buy lobsters? They're so fresh and cheap!"

"There are also groupers and crabs. They're all freshly caught. Come and buy some!"

Joanna was not in the mood to care about these people. She just stared at the people coming and going in front Ther uneasily!

Chapter 420

She waited for another ten minutes or so.

A middle-aged man with dark skin approached Joanna. "You're Joanna Haynes, right?"

Joanna turned around and saw a man dressed as a fisherman standing behind her.

"Yes, I'm Joanna Haynes!"

"Come with me!"

Joanna held her breath and hurriedly followed the fisherman,

The fisherman brought Joanna to a relatively quiet dock and pointed at the small boat on the sea, "Get on the boat!"

On the sea surface, there is a simple fishing boat moored. With the fluctuation of the sea breeze, the boat sways back and forth. It seems like it could sink with the next wave that hits it.

Joanna took a deep breath and made a bold decision. She knew that once she boarded that small boat, there was a high chance she would never return.

The fishermen also got on the boat and rowed out of the fishing port.

Joanna's heart was beating wildly. There were many buildings and many islands here that had been abandoned.

Ryan must be hiding on one of the islands.

In the middle of the sea, a motorboat roared over. A young man wearing sunglasses said gloomily, "Get on!"-

Joanna hesitated for a moment before boarding the motorboat.

The person driving the motorboat drifted away like an arrow leaving the bow. He drew an are on the sea and drove the motorboat away!

Only the motorboat was moving on the vast sea surface!

Soon.

The motorboat stopped on the shore of a small island.

"Let's go to the island!"

Joanna calmed himself down, got off the motorboat, and went ashore.

She looked around.

This was a deserted island with a few dilapidated houses. In the past, this was also a small fishing village with more than ten families living on the island. However, one day, a family on the island contracted an unknown disease. Everyone on the island was infected within a few days, and all the fishermen died.

This island was abandoned and became a haunted island. Even tourists did not dare to come to this island.

"Hurry up!"

Joanna was forcefully pushed from behind and nearly fell to the ground. The island was overgrown with weeds, making it difficult to walk.

After walking for more than ten minutes, she finally arrived at an abandoned house.

"Boss, they're here!"

"Joanna, you're quite bold."

"Ryan, where's my daughter?"
