His Ex Wife is A Billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus)

Chapter 721

Marilla’s phone was confiscated, and she was “invited” into the car.

A cold sweat soaked her trembling back; her slender, fragile frame curled pathetically next to Hans, her hands clutching a teddy bear, shaking uncontrollably.

Hans remained silent, taking the apple back.

“Are you going to kill me?”

Hans crunched into his apple.

“If your target is me, please don’t hurt Lily.”

Determination shimmered in Marilla’s eyes; the thought of saving Lily dispelled the crippling fear that felt like the sky was falling, “As long as Lily is safe, I won’t run. Even if it costs my life to exchange for Lily’s!”
