Charlotte growled through gritted teeth, “That Sharon Blackwood really knows how to pick a place. Does she think that I won’t go there because that is a place of misery for me? Is that why she’s taking Ellie over?”
“She probably thinks that the most dangerous place is the most unsuspecting place,” replied Zachary while frowning.
“How did you know which flight they were taking? My team couldn’t learn anything,” said Charlotte curiously.
“Peter called me,” shared Zachary, “Sharon’s subordinates beat him up and locked him up for a month, but they released him some time ago. Olivia called him and deliberately leaked the information to him.”
“It’s as I suspected. That Olivia is such an idiot. Why didn’t she tell me everything right away? I could’ve rescued Peter ages ago, and she didn’t need to be threatened like that,” complained Charlotte angrily.
“She was blinded by her emotions,” commented Zachary, who was more rational. He added, “They’re boarding the plane now. We must hurry.”
“Call the airport and have them stop the plane!” urged Charlotte quickly.
“They’re still doing the paperwork…”
“Paperwork? What the f*ck? I will f*cking kill them if anything were to happen to my daughter!” roared Charlotte who was about to lose her mind in a fit of anger.
“We’re not in Erihal, so no special privileges for the rich here,” reminded Zachary, “I’ve contacted the police in T Nation since we already know the destination. Don’t worry…”
Charlotte didn’t bother listening. She hurried toward the boarding gate.
Sharon and the others had already boarded the plane by then.
She sighed a breath of relief. The plane is about to depart, and I can finally leave this place safely.
With the girl here, both the Nacht family and the Lindberg family will not dare to come after me.
Sharon had already planned ahead. She would stay in Coldbridge for a while and go somewhere else once the dust settled down.
“You’ll let us go once we reach T Nation, right?” asked Olivia fearfully.
“Shut up!”
Sharon scolded angrily, but she soon became alert and scanned her surroundings. She was worried that others would overhear her.
“There is no point in bringing us along,” said Olivia, “If Ellie is with you, both Mr. Nacht and Charlotte will not relent and will keep coming after you. You might as well just let us go because then they won’t be bothered to look for you anymore.”
“Do you take me as a fool?” scolded Sharon while frowning, “I killed Mrs. Berry, and I humiliated Charlotte in the past. There is no way she’d let me go. They’d just kill me if I don’t have the kid as leverage.”
“But…”
“Shut up!” threatened Sharon while pointing a finger at Olivia, “I will kill you if you keep bullsh*tting like that!”
Olivia didn’t dare to say another word. She simply held on to Ellie tightly.
“Miss, is the kid asleep?” asked the stewardess, “Please put her in her seat and buckle her up. The plane is about to take off.”
“Okay, got it,” replied Sharon politely before she put on a skin-deep grin and turn to Olivia, “Do as the lady said! Stop hugging her like this. You’re getting her all sweaty.”
Olivia didn’t dare to complain. She slowly set Ellie down on the seat and buckle her up.
Just then, the effects of the sleeping medication started to wear off. Ellie moved about and looked like she was about to wake up.
Sharon’s expression stiffened. She waited until the stewardess had left before she demanded, “What’s going on? Didn’t I tell you to give her a heavy dosage? Why is she waking up?”
“She has been sick, so she can’t take too many sleeping pills,” answered Olivia softly, “The dosage I gave her is already beyond the limit.”
“What the hell am I supposed to do if she wakes up and makes a fuss? Feed her more medicine now!” demanded Sharon with a grouchy expression on.
“No, I can’t. She can’t take it anymore,” replied Olivia while shaking her head nervously.
Everyone started looking over because they thought that those passengers were weird.
Sharon glared evilly at Olivia. The former didn’t complain anymore because she didn’t want to attract any attention. She simply took two sleeping pills out of her possession and ground them into dust before adding them to a bottle of water. After that, she shook the bottle and tried to feed it to Ellie.
