Chapter 10
The lavish room was instantly in shambles as a bunch of people rushed in through the windows and doors, all with loaded guns.
Yvonne screamed in fear, but she was already being held down. Andrew took off his mask to respectfully help me up.
Frederick beside me immediately fed me a pill in my mouth. Within a minute, my senseless arms and legs were al- ready able to move.
Yvonne looked at all these incredulously, “You…”
“You think I’m a fool, Yvonne? Have you overestimated yourselves or underestimated me?“”
Yvonne couldn’t stop trembling.
“I am Grace Parrish! My father, Jordan Parrish, is a renowned businessman, an existence feared by both the police and the mafia, the top consortium of the country. What is the misconception that makes you think I’m a hopeless ro- mantic? Chad? Antonio? Do you think they deserve my love? They are dispensable to me.”
George tossed a black bag into the room. From it, a round object rolled out and stopped at Yvonne’s feet.
The object met Yvonne’s gaze. In that instant, her scream filled the entire villa, sounding like the frantic wail of a pig being slaughtered.
Antonio’s head was revealed in front of Yvonne. A smell of urine hit everyone in the room. Yvonne had peed herself.
George said with disgust, “Antonio was such an idiot. The Kaufman family has already given up on him, but he still asked us to release this bitch. I showed him the video of her with those men and Mr. Cooper, that expression I saw on him at that time, it’s hilarious even thinking about it now,” he then burst out laughing.
I laughed along with George, then commanded, “Give Yvonne to Ian.”
Andrew bowed slightly in greeting, while I was assisted to the private hospital for a thorough examination.
Luckily, this time, instead of breaking my arms and legs, they only drugged me.
Bryce took the phone and said, “It’s Mr. Parrish.”
“Good girl, are you hurt?”
“No, Daddy,” I replied sweetly.
“That’s good. The Kaufman family called and begged me to let them off the hook, saying they could give Antonio to us and we can do whatever we want to him we pleased. What makes them think an illegitimate child and a small branch of the mafia overseas could hurt me? And the audacity of them to send someone to assassinate me? It’s a trav- esty. How ridiculous!”

Chapter 10
I couldn’t help but laugh as I listened to my father’s arrogant and proud tone.
“Dad, you’re the best!”

“No, my daughter is the best! She warned me in advance. Otherwise, my people would have really been bought off by them. People are always so greedy. I heard that Chad has also betrayed us. Have you caught him yet?”
“Not yet.”
“Don’t show mercy.”
“Understood.”
After hanging up, I lay back on the bed to rest and recover.
When I woke up, my ninth bodyguard, Ian, brought Yvonne who had been tortured really badly, and Chad who had his arms and legs broken.
“Please… Please kill me.”
I could no longer recognize Yvonne. After all, Ian had a knack for torturing people.
Yvonne lost her hair, her head swelled, and both her wrists and legs were cut off. She looked like a rag doll to me.
Chad stared at me, his expression devoid of any emotion.
Yvonne’s eyes widened in horror as she saw Chad struggling violently. “Chad, please beg….Ms. Parrish to save me!” she pleaded, her voice trembling.
Chad remained unmoved, his gaze fixed on me, unwavering and cold.
“Ms. Parrish, does it hurt?” Chad asked softly, his voice shaking, his eyes red with a mix of sorrow and guilt.
