Vera suddenly burst out. "I just want you to regret it! I want you to taste what it's like to be played with!"

Keira immediately said, "I'll go to the Martin family for the antidote right now!"

Vera scoffed. "I've already given old Mr. Martin orders, and he won't give it to you before the DNA test results come out... as for after the results are released, you and I both know that you're deceiving him!

"Keera, had you simply conceded defeat and handed Amy over to me, I could have spared your life, but you insisted on courting death! Don't blame me for being ruthless! I want you to watch with your own eyes as your father leaves you!"

With those words, Vera ended the call.

Keira stared blankly at her phone, clenching her jaw tightly.

She suddenly looked toward Lewis with a hint of panic.

Lewis had been standing by her side all along and naturally heard the voice from the phone as well. He immediately said, "It's my fault..."

He shouldn't have tricked Vera, which pushed her over the edge.

It had only bought them a mere two days' time.

If he had known the consequences of those two days would be so severe, he would definitely not have done it.

Keira shook her head. "No one could have anticipated this."

Both frowned and looked at each other. "The Martin family..."

They both knew that being tough with the Martin family wouldn't work, and giving in also wasn't an option.

The Martin family would rather die than surrender, which was why Lewis said before that even if he used his overseas power to sanction the Martin family internationally, it would only result in mutual destruction.

They couldn't be coerced by force.

But if that was the case, what about Uncle Olsen?

As Keira grew anxious, someone suddenly asked, "Why are you here?"

Keira turned around and saw Susan standing beside Jenkins.

Only then did she realize that upon entering the room, besides the butler, there was Jenkins, who now stood in a corner, quivering all over.
