Chapter 149

Leanna felt that they had been going for a long time, and the car was getting even faster. The ride was getting bumpy as well. She muttered, "Where are you taking me?"

A few moments later, Ron said grimly, "Nowhere."

Leanna froze for a moment, and she felt her blood run cold. "What do you mean?"

"Someone sabotaged the car. The brakes aren't working."

Leanna finally understood what Sienna had in mind. No wonder she warned me to keep my departure a secret. No wonder I'm not allowed to tell anyone about this. So this is what she had in mind. If she actually believed Sienna and left with her men, she and her baby would die, and none would be the wiser. That was Sienna's real goal.

The car had come out of the mountain, and she heard the sounds of vehicles blaring around her.

She leaned against the seat and said, "You would have jumped out of the vehicle to escape if you were alone, wouldn't you?"

Ron did not answer. He kept weaving through the traffic, trying to lead the car to a remote area.

Leanna was tired. "I think I know why you're here for me. You might not know this, but Queenie was arrested yesterday. I'm surprised to know that you know her too." Zoe told her about it the night before. Queenie and Ron were neighbors, and they grew up together. However, they stopped keeping in touch after Queenie went overseas. Leanna neglected that for a long time, but Ron's appearance explained a lot of stuff. He's probably behind the necklace's switcheroo during the banquet too.

Ron's veins popped. "I did that. It's not her fault."
