Sabrina Was Caught

Suddenly, Sabrina’s phone rang because she had received a text message.

Worried that the housemaid needed her help with the child, she immediately stopped to read the text.

Edmund: Have you had lunch?

Shocked, Sabrina stared wide-eyed at her phone.

Her heart even started racing when she saw the name.

Why did he suddenly text me? Didn’t he say we can’t contact each other at this juncture? We’re not

even supposed to text and call each other, much less have a meetup.

After checking her surroundings and making sure nobody was watching, Sabrina replied to the text.

Sabrina: What are you doing? I thought we agreed not to contact each other?

Edmund: But I miss you and Jaena so much! Where are you now? If you’re not too busy, the three of

us can meet. Don’t worry. We met in Bellridge before anyway. Nobody’s going to suspect a thing.

Sabrina could not believe that Edmund came up with such a bold suggestion and doubted if it was the

right time to meet up with the man.

Eventually, she agreed to his suggestion as she wanted to see him too. Besides, in her eyes, the man

had always been a trustworthy and reliable person. Since he said it was safe for them to meet, she

believed him.

Therefore, Sabrina drove home to pick up her daughter before returning to the mall around forty

minutes later. Then, she eagerly took her phone out to text him again.

Sabrina: Jaena is with me now. Where are you?

Edmund: Tell me where you are.

Sabrina: I’m here at Summerview.

Edmund: Good. We’ll meet at the arcade in fifteen minutes. It’s on the third floor.

With that, Sabrina turned around to look up to the third floor and found the arcade he had

mentioned. Why the arcade? Is it because it’ll be easier for us to hide in the crowd?

She then carried Jaena and headed for the place.

A crowded place like the arcade was indeed suitable for the three to meet. On top of that, anyone there

could pick their preferred arcade machine and have the space all to themselves.

As instructed through the texts, Sabrina picked a machine and sat down in front of it.

However, she felt something pressed against her neck from behind as soon as she did.

“What did I tell you, Boss? There’s something fishy about this woman. I merely impersonated Edmund

and texted her, and she did everything I told her without any suspicion.”

Sabrina could hear the voice of a man cackling behind her as if he had struck gold, and that was when

she finally realized she was fooled.

“How dare you trick me like that! I’m going to kill you!” she roared furiously at the men, color draining

from her face.

“Kill us?”

Still pressing a dagger against Sabrina’s throat, the man laughed at the ridiculous idea.

“Mrs. Jadeson, do you really think you’re in any position to make a threat? I suggest that you forget

about trying anything stupid. Now let me tell you what’s going to happen. You’re going to tell me exactly

who this Edmund is, or I will kill both you and your daughter right here.”

Sabrina’s face immediately hardened when she realized that those men were after Devin.

Then, she clenched her fists and kept quiet for a while before sneering, “Are you right in the head? You

just said his name, didn’t you? Who else can he be beside Edmund?”

“You know what I mean!” Enraged, the man applied pressure onto the blade, and blood started slowly

oozing out of Sabrina’s neck. “I’m a man of my word, and this should show you exactly how serious I

am. I’m aware that you can fight, but so can we. If you don’t tell me what I want to know, your daughter

will be next.”

With that, the man gestured for his partner to snatch Sabrina’s daughter from her.

“Don’t you touch her!”

Sabrina did not care if she could not beat those men nor the dagger resting on her neck. After

tightening her arms around her child, she tried to thrust the ball of her foot into the approaching man’s

abdomen. I don’t care what happens to me, but I’ll never let anyone lay a finger on my daughter!

Thud!

Unfortunately, as the man had already informed Sabrina, they were indeed well-trained.

Even though the man’s partner was surprised by her sudden move, he was quick enough to dodge the

kick. In the end, the chair he sat on was the only thing sent flying by the woman.

“It seems like you’d rather do this the hard way.”

Having said that, the man holding the dagger then swung his palm at Sabrina at lightning speed and

slapped her right on the cheek.

Slap!

Sabrina’s head was tilted to the side because of the force.
