Chapter 109

Madeline stepped on Angie’s leg, unbothered, while using the rope to secure a large rock nearby.

“Of course, I would never lie to you!” Angie, unaware of Madeline's scheme, attempted valiantly to persuade her while deep down, she was spewing profanities at her. Once she got back up to her feet, she would not hesitate to push Madeline down the cliff.

In your dreams, Madeline!

“Unfortunately, I can never trust you again. That’s why you’ll be left here to die, my dear sister!” Madeline exclaimed, releasing her grip on Angie’s leg.

In an instant, Angie, all tied-up, plummeted down the edge of the cliff. Since Angie's rope was only about nine feet long, she was immediately yanked back up by the force when she reached the end of the rope. Her face was scraped by tree branches during the process, leaving a few bleeding wounds on her once-porcelain skin. Angie managed to avoid death but was now dangling precariously at the side of the cliff. Strong ocean waves crashed below her, and the clifftop was beyond her reach. Panic set in for Angie as she realized that Madeline was indeed abandoning her here to die.

“Madeline Grant, you wench, pull me back up now or I’ll never forgive you, even in the afterlife!” Angie screamed out of fear and rage. She tried to climb up with all her strength, but her efforts were in vain since her arms and legs were bound. She also dared not move an inch when the rope almost gave way while she was struggling.

“What a coincidence! I also will never forgive you for killing Gordon. What's it like down there? Do you feel yourself getting closer to hell? Don’t worry, you’ll not be here for long. Noah will arrive soon and do you think he’ll pull you back up once he learns the truth - that you’re a murderer and a liar?”

“No… No, please. Madeline, I beg you! Pull me up! If Mr. Quincy knows that I killed Gordon, he’s going to kill me!”

“Oh, you’re scared? Then, by all means, escape to hell. Unless you burn in hell, neither I nor Noah will ever forgive you.” Madeline cast a chilly gaze over the edge of the cliff toward Angie, whose face was as pale as a ghost. Madeline turned to leave before Angie could reply; she couldn't bear to look at that murderer again!

After learning that Gordon’s dote on her was what drove Angie to kill him, Madeline felt guilty and that she was somewhat responsible for Gordon’s death.
