She Got A Better Man

After hanging up the phone, Cole furrowed his brows, still troubled. He had always believed he'd hidden things well, that Elvira didn't know about his secrets. But now, it seemed like she had known all along.

What does she think of me now? Is she disappointed in me?' he wondered. He rubbed his face in frustration, then pulled out his phone and quickly sent a message, ordering his people to search for Alice's whereabouts with everything they had. Elvira dialed Judy's number, and when the call connected, she spoke first. "Judy, what do you want from me?"

"Well, look at that. It's rare for you to call me. You're so proud of yourself, aren't you? Thought you were clever, almost managed to ruin my life, and now you're the one coming to beg me." Judy sneered, her voice laced with a wild, unsettling madness. "So, you're the one who took Alice," Elvira asked, confronting the painful truth she had been avoiding.

If Alice had been kidnapped by someone else, there might still be hope. But with Judy, a cornered lunatic, Elvira knew anything was possible. Judy was dangerous, capable of anything.

No wonder they said always leave an enemy a way out. Otherwise, they would fight like cornered animals, no holds barred. "Are you actually worried now? That little girl's pretty cute, but her eyes... those eyes of hers are just like yours, and I really hate them. What do you think? Should I dig them out?" Judy laughed maniacally.

"No. Judy, I'm your enemy. Leave Alice alone. Tell me what you want," Elvira said, lowering herself to meet Judy's twisted desires.

"I want you dead." Judy gritted through her teeth..

"If you let Alice go, I'll give you my life," Elvira said without hesitation.

Before Judy could respond, someone grabbed Elvira's phone from her hand. Elvira turned to see Zach standing behind her, and her face changed instantly. She reached out to take the phone back, but it had already been disconnected.

"Alice is in Judy's hands. I have to negotiate with her." Elvira urgently looked at Zach, hoping to get the phone back.
