Chapter 1211: Chapter 1211: At the Critical Moment
Iris Seys looked at the height from the second floor with fear, but remembered her mother’s instructions, suppressing her cries, her small body trembling intensely.
Terribly afraid, yet dare not cry out.
"Five——-!"
"Four——-!!"
"Three——-!!!"
Scarlett Morris’s voice echoed throughout the abandoned factory, so cold and merciless, chilling like King Yama...
Ariel Morris’s fingers were icy and trembling, slowly reaching for the short knife in front of her.
Her icy gaze swept over Damien Morris, Laura Pinley, and Scarlett Morris standing on the second floor, with no warmth in her eyes.
She glanced down, her gaze catching the ancient silver bracelet on her left wrist.
It was given to her by Arlo, a symbol of being the Seys Family’s daughter-in-law, and she wore it on her left wrist to conceal the scar from her suicide years ago before leaving the country.
These people are inhuman; even if she harms herself and collapses before them, they may not spare her child! Before Arlo arrives, even if she exchanges her life for a life, she can’t ensure the child’s safety...
With these thoughts passing through Ariel Morris’s mind, she slowly picked up the knife, her gaze moving to the second floor, "You better keep your word! Spare my child, I’ll give you my life!"
Upstairs, the three from the Morris Family coldly stared at Ariel Morris, not taking their eyes off, just wanting to see Ariel Morris die before them!
Holding the knife, Ariel Morris first cut into the palm of her hand where the details couldn’t be seen from the second floor, then slowly moved to cut at her wrist...
The ancient silver bracelet was incredibly resilient; as Ariel Morris cut down, blood dripped through her fingers onto the ground, she weakly looked up at those on the second floor: "Let my child go... keep your word!"
"Ariel Morris, your motherly love is truly great! To add another cut to the scar from cutting your wrist years ago for your child, really planning to exchange one life for another!" Damien Morris sneered coldly, his voice laced with mockery.
"I am not as cold-blooded and heartless as you are!" Ariel Morris bit her lip, trembling, close to collapsing, she shouted coldly: "Let my child go!"
Blood dripped from beneath the bracelet onto the ground.
Ariel Morris collapsed unsteadily to the ground, her gaze filled with hatred and coldness directed towards the second floor.
The blood, so vividly red, was shocking.
Upstairs, Scarlett Morris sneered, looking down at Ariel Morris, "You want the child, I’ll return her to you now!!"
As Scarlett Morris finished her sentence on the second floor, her brow carried cruelty and hatred.
Just then, a boy who had been watching everything unfold in the factory suddenly focused his gaze and rushed in!
As Scarlett Morris’s words fell, Ariel Morris lying on the ground was suddenly terrified!!
In her view, she saw Scarlett Morris ruthlessly pushing Iris Seys off the second floor!!
"Iris!!!"
Ariel Morris struggled to stand, her whole body trembling, rushing to catch the falling Iris Seys.
The height from the second floor to the ground, if Iris were to fall, she dared not imagine...
Ariel Morris, injured and bleeding, watched as Iris Seys was pushed, her body weakened, slower by several beats.
Seeing her child about to fall right before her, despair and fear filled her eyes, tears uncontrollably streaming down.
Iris Seys couldn’t hold it anymore and cried out, her sobs clear in the abandoned factory, tearing Ariel Morris’s heart, her pain beyond words.
As Iris Seys was about to hit the ground, a figure who had rushed from outside the factory quickly dashed forward, reaching out to catch the falling Iris Seys....
