Mason Bush felt a deep sense of powerlessness, he looked at Emma Bush in front of him, only to feel strange and familiar ……
In her eyes, he was nothing more than a guarantee for the rest of his life. There was no use for him beyond that, and now, for example, he was a burden, a burden that could not say a word against her, because she wanted to live.
Emma Bush pleads, almost humbly.
Jacqueline, who was getting more and more annoyed, raised her hand and slapped her across the face, “Shut up! If you cry again, I’ll kill you!”
Emma Bush was shocked into silence again, but she couldn’t control her deepest fears and her tears felt like they were breaking.
Elena Bush squeezed her palms and, caught off guard, said, “Jacqueline, let them go.”
“Who are you to make a deal with me?” Jacqueline shot her a cross look.
“Am I not a bargaining chip in my own right? A bargaining chip for you to negotiate with Edward Ford, and if you don’t agree to me, I can’t guarantee what I’ll do, much less, that I’ll still be alive when the time comes.”
“You think you can threaten me like that?” Jacqueline looked at her sharply.
Elena Bush smiled miserably, “Don’t believe me? Then we could have tried.”
“Yeah ……” Emma Bush chimed in, “Jacqueline, you’re not doing yourself any favours by killing us, so instead of killing us, why don’t you listen to Elena Bush and let us go, okay?”
“You shut up!” Elena Bush reprimanded her sternly for interrupting.
Emma Bush was displeased, but when she thought that she was helping herself, she didn’t dare to say anything.
Elena Bush didn’t look at Emma Bush again, she just looked at Jacqueline, “What, do you have a problem with that?”
Jacqueline bit her bottom lip, “I need to think about it.”
“There’s nothing to think about, let them go and I’ll go with Edward Ford.”
“Elena Bush, why are you helping them?” She couldn’t figure it out, “Emma Bush is even going to leave you for dead and you? And you’re helping him even at this point, why?”
“No, it’s Mason Bush I’m helping.”
Mason Bush’s whole body shook.
Elena Bush’s lips curled into a light smile, “I never knew what Joanna Lake had been through, her life was sad even up to the moment of her death. I think …… the greatest warmth she encountered in her life was the person who sent her away, and the person who took her in.”
The person who sent her away Elena Bush knew better than anyone, and that was Kent’s mother. And the other one was undoubtedly Mason Bush ……
“I know that Mason Bush may have done a lot of things too, his wife got Joanna Lake killed, and his daughter got me into this mess, but anyway, he helped Joanna Lake, so I owe him a favor, and now that I’ve paid it back, it’s all over… …”
As for Emma Bush it was incidental, she knew that Mason Bush would not have been willing to live without Emma Bush.
Mason Bush looked at her, his eyes mostly red, “Elena …… actually, you don’t have to do this for me… I was the one who had the wrong idea about her back then, and taking her in was nothing more than a selfish act.”
“Anyway, I survived because of you didn’t I?” She smiled, then couldn’t help but wave her hand, “Besides, my life is ruined, so until then, at least do something about it.”
Emma Bush looked at her with a wary expression, “You, don’t you hate me?”
“Hate!”
“Then why ……”
“Does hate work?” Elena Bush looked at her, “I hate you, but I can’t do anything illegal, I even hated to kill you a few times, but so what?”
She couldn’t be as ruthless as she was, much less actually do it.
Emma Bush was dumbfounded for a moment as she stared at her dumbfounded, unable to say anything.
Jacqueline looked around at a few people and couldn’t help but tighten her brow, then sneered, “Elena Bush, it seems to me that you’re far too kind! Even if you do this now, they won’t remember you in the future, much less be grateful!”
“I don’t need their gratitude.” Elena Bush replied quickly.
Jacqueline gave her a suspicious look, clearly unaware of what she had in mind.
Silence followed, but then Elena Bush suddenly pulled a smile from the corner of her mouth, “Emma Bush is a cripple now, Mason Bush has long since lost his ambition, and they are no different living than regular people ……”
“Aren’t you afraid they’ll premeditate to kill you again?” Jacqueline spoke directly to the point.
Emma Bush blanched, then immediately said, “No way! I won’t, Elena… you believe me, I’m your sister… I’ve never actually hated you… the only person I hate is Logan Brown, really!”
Jacqueline glanced at her, “You’d really say anything for yourself!”
“I didn’t!”
Emma Bush clenched her teeth and looked at her urgently, hoping endlessly that Elena Bush would never believe Jacqueline’s bullshit!
Elena Bush lifted her eyes and swept her away before fading back, “If she still wants to do it , then just do it, and I don’t care about anything anymore.”
“Elena , what are you talking about!” Mason Bush huffed, “Don’t worry, I won’t do anything, and neither will Emma Bush, as long as I don’t say yes to her, she won’t do anything!”
“If that’s the case, then why did you say yes this time?”
Mason Bush froze instantly, half unable to say anything, much less retort.
He was soft-hearted after all, always unable to refuse in the face of Emma Bush’s bitter pleas ……
“That’s enough.” Elena Bush took a deep breath, “It’s really enough, whether it’s you, or you guys, I’ve had enough of this, I really don’t want to take it all anymore if I can help it.”
She glanced down at her wrist, which Edward Ford had bandaged for her, using her own shirt, but at the moment, it looked as if it was taunting her incessantly.
Jacqueline nuzzled at her look and silently withdrew her gaze, then said, “I can promise you to let them go, and you can’t have any backtracking!”
“Ok.” She shook her head, then reminded, “You should go and see if Edward Ford’s car has arrived yet or not.”
Jacqueline made a subconscious effort to get out, but on second thought, immediately shook her head off and dropped her eyes on Mason Bush. “You go! Rush him faster!”
Mason Bush had no room to refuse and had to meekly go out to check.
Only just as he stepped outside, a dark shadow loomed over him, and the next moment his mouth and nose were deadly tightly muffled, so that not a sound could be uttered!
