Chapter 1662 I Will Cut Off My Hand
Following their gaze, Arielle turned around and rubbed her brow wearily when she located the object of
their consternation.
Didn’t we agree to let me speak to them beforehand before she showed herself? Why can’t she hold it
in? I was about to open my mouth.
“I can’t believe you found her, Ari. You’re really good,” Sonia exclaimed, turning to look at Arielle after
shooting daggers at Lorraine.
She had developed a vehement hatred for her kidnapper at the memory of how the few men had
almost violated her.
Lawrence was also gazing admiringly at Arielle. He was delighted that Arielle had succeeded where he
had failed.
“Men, take her in!” Lawrence ordered as he redirected his gaze toward Lorraine.
She must be sick of living to abduct my daughter!
“Hang on!” Arielle said hastily when the sentry took a step toward Lorraine.
Lawrence and Sonia looked at her in puzzlement.
“This is between me and them, Boss. You don’t have to intervene.” Lorraine did not wish to put Arielle
in a difficult position. She then turned to Sonia and Lawrence. “Sonia is aware of my reason for
kidnapping her. I just wanted to take back what was mine, but I went about it the wrong way.”
Lorraine looked Sonia in the eye and continued, “I have never intended to hurt you. I was going to set Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.
you free after taking back what belonged to me, but I did not expect the men to be bold enough to lay
their hands on you. I threw them to the sharks after I found out about it.”
Stunned upon hearing the word “Boss,” Lawrence and Sonia did not register her words after that. Sonia
gaped at Arielle. Am I hearing things? How is Arielle her boss?
Arielle knew she owed the two people before her an explanation, so she recounted the tale of how
Lorraine became one of hers.
“I am willing to pay for the things I have done,” Lorraine said, gazing steadily at Lawrence and Sonia.
Upon hearing Arielle’s explanation, Sonia became more at ease about the prior matter of Lorraine
kidnapping her. It was also fortunate that she did not sustain any actual injuries.
Despite his daughter’s relief, Lawrence was not as forgiving. He had initially intended to arrest Lorraine
to pay whatever harm that had befallen his daughter back tenfold.
Now that she had inadvertently become one of Arielle’s people, he did not quite know what to do.
Lawrence felt conflicted. The punishment would not be able to appease his resentment if it were too
light. However, he thought it would be disrespectful toward Arielle if the sentence was too severe.
Lorraine could sense Lawrence’s dilemma. Fortunately, she had expected this scenario and come
prepared. She produced a blade from her bosom while gazing at Sonia and Lawrence.
“I will cut off my hand in apology to Sonia!” Lorraine declared, raising the blade to hack her left wrist off
before bringing it down. Fortunately, Lawrence threw a kick when the blade was about to fall on her
palm. His gesture was so abrupt that it flung the knife out of Lorraine’s hand.
Lorraine gazed at Lawrence, confused.
Sonia did not expect that Lorraine would offer a hand as penance. Her heart was in her throat during
that harrowing moment. Just when she thought all was lost, she heaved a sigh of relief when her father
kicked the blade away.
“Offering your hand isn’t the only way to make amends,” Sonia said as she looked at Lorraine.
