Chapter 313 She Wouldn't Let Any of the Masterminds Off the Hook


Marigold kept calling Alaric, but his phone was always off. Her growing sense of foreboding intensified. Where on earth had he gone? "Mrs. Knight, should we call the police?" Joe suggested, seeing how anxious Mrs. Knight was.

However, as soon as Joe finished speaking, Marigold snapped back, "What the hell were you thinking? That's a lousy idea! I conspired with Ambrose to have him kidnap Stellan. If I call the police now, wouldn't I be walking right into a trap?" Marigold was furious. She couldn't find Alaric, and Ambrose wasn't in touch. She wanted to know how far things had escalated, yet Ambrose hadn't responded at all.

"What are you doing?" At that moment, a servant's anxious voice came from the yard. Marigold looked outside and saw Stuart storming in, unstoppable despite the servants' attempts to block him. "You're trespassing! If you keep forcing your way in, I will..."

"Get out of my way!" Stuart, in a fit of rage, violently knocked down anyone who tried to stop him.

Joe hurriedly stood in front of Marigold. By now, Stuart had barged into the hall, looking ready to settle scores.

"Where's Alaric?" Stuart demanded angrily. "Get him out here!"

Stuart's aggressive stance scared Marigold. Joe nervously stepped forward and asked, "Who are you, and what do you want with Mr. Knight?"

"I'm Stuart. Alaric killed my son. A life for a life." Stuart then started to act tough. "I don't have much patience. Get him out here now, or you all will suffer!"

This was too much for Marigold to handle. Seeing her almost unable to stand, Joe quickly went to support her.
