"You-Javier, you-" Grandma Emily was practically shaking with fury, her finger trembling as she pointed at Javier. "You've really crossed the line! Threatening to kill Lillian in broad daylight? Do you even care about the law? Believe me, I'll call the police this instant and have you arrested!"

"Call the police, huh?" Javier's voice was icy, a smirk playing on his lips. "Go on! Let them dig into what really happened with Allie's kidnapping!"

Grandma Emily's face turned ghostly pale, her breath coming in ragged gasps as if she might collapse any moment.
