My Four Miraculous Treasures

With both hands on the cold marble floor, she looked up at Jasper fearfully with tears in her eyes, not daring to say a word.

She feared that she might enrage Jasper and end up worse off than Edith.

Jasper lit a cigarette, took a drag, and blew out a ring of smoke. He said in a deep voice, "You have the jade pendant, don't you?"

Samantha went numb with shock. By now, her tears and snot had combined. She stuttered, "I-I have it at home. I-I just happened to pick it up..."

When she overheard Edith's phone call, she had learned that Jasper had slept with Willow and left her a token. Jasper wanted Willow to seek him out again with that token.

Samantha had found the pendant in the debris before Willow could and hid it away.

For the past five years, she kept using the pendant as an excuse to get money from Edith.

She had threatened to hand the pendant over to Jasper and reveal the truth if Edith didn't pay up.

Edith had always obliged out of fear of being exposed.

The pendant was Samantha's money tree, so she kept it well.

She had made a fake one for Willow to bring to Jasper so that the latter would assume that Willow was trying to deceive him.

The fake pendant was replicated based on the real one.

Jasper's voice was cold and domineering as he said, "There's no use keeping your hands and feet since they're dirty. We should disable them."

His bodyguard immediately approached Samantha.

Samantha understood Jasper's intention. He was going to break her arms and legs.

The approaching bodyguard looked like a monster from hell to her. Her scalp was tingling and her heart was stuck in her throat. She wailed, "Mr. Hughes, I was wrong. I'll return the pendant to you at once. I won't do it anymore. Please spare me considering the fact that I'm Willow's cousin and that I grew up with her..." "Ah!"

Her hands were being pressed to the floor before she could even finish begging. The bodyguard stepped on them without hesitation.

Crack! It was the crisp sound of bones cracking. Samantha screamed in pain, feeling as if her soul would leave her body from this.

It wasn't over. After the bones of her fingers were crushed, the bodyguard straightened her legs before placing his hard leather shoe on her shin. Then, he stepped down hard

en

BUMS

Crack! The sound of her calf bone breaking was just as crisp, bright, and heavy as snapping a lotus root in half.

Samantha's sharp cries filled the entire room.

It was ghastly, horrifying, and cruel.

However, it couldn't be heard outside due to the room's excellent soundproof system.

Being used to such situations,

Jasper wasn't at all affected. He

continued to smoke his cigarette leisurely while maintaining his intimidating aura like nothing was wrong.

The bodyguard tossed Samantha on the floor. She was twitching in pain and foaming at the mouth. Her eyes had rolled back and she thought she was going to die.

This felt worse than dying.

She wouldn't be in this much pain if they had just killed her quickly. Jasper put out his cigarette in the ashtray when he was done with it.

"Consider the fifty million Edith gave

you a bribery. As the person who accepted the bribe, you have one week to cough up the money. If you don't, you can go to jail with Edith."

Jasper got up and left after saying what he wanted to say. Samantha would've ended up worse if she wasn't Willow's cousin. Jasper was already cutting her slack by doing this.noveldrama
