Chapter 295 An Alliance at Nightfall

Hope reignited in Sadie's heart; she had finally found someone who could influence Micah. She wondered if pleading with Micah's grandfather would grant her freedom.

"Mr. Clemens Sr.'s temper is even more unpredictable than Mr. Clemens'," Dahlia said, seeing right through Sadie's thoughts. "Miss Roth, I'd advise you to keep your distance from him." Sadie was at a loss for words. She should have realized that if Micah was so cruel and twisted, his grandfather was unlikely to be any more congenial.

"Careful!" Dahlia directed the medical team as they lifted Sadie onto the ambulance stretcher.

Lying there, Sadie let out a resigned sigh. She realized she might just have to wait until Micah grew tired of her and let her go.

While she was lost in thought, her phone chimed with a message. It was from Serena.

Serena: [Thank you so much, Sadie. With your help, I've been offered a position at a major company with great pay. Vicky even gave me a bonus for medical expenses.] Sadie: [Congratulations, keep it up!]

Sadie felt a measure of solace in her heart; her biggest takeaway from today's event was probably the help she gave to Serena.
