Chapter 265

Her gut instinct told her that the man would not settle the score with Zoey solely for her. After all, nobody could easily flee after offending such a prominent family as the Shurmer family.

“Cadence, don't try to bluff me. Zoey Shurmer is the heiress of the Shurmer family. Not to mention, her father and brother are renowned figures worldwide. Will you take the risk to step on the Shurmer family's toes for my sake?”

“I won't,” Cadence replied candidly.

“You!” Rhonda was riled up in an instant. However, something occurred to her, and she calmed down. She could not help but scoff, “Hmph! What a heartless answer. Anyway, I believe you. Tell me now. How are you planning on making her into your scapegoat? Why did you set her up?”

Cadence beckoned to her. “Come here.”

Pursing her lips, Rhonda remained standing in the same spot for quite a while before she advanced toward him reluctantly and sat down beside him.

On the heels of that, Cadence turned to pin her under him.

Rhonda snapped in exasperation, “Have you gone nuts? I only had a miscarriage a few days ago and haven't fully recovered. How can I do the deed with you now?”

A hint of indignance flickered in Rhonda's eyes. Deep down, her abhorrence toward the man intensified. She tilted her head instinctively to avoid him, but the man above her gripped her chin viciously.

“Let go of me!”

“Are you sure you want me to let go of you? If you can't please me today, you won't be able to get any clue about what you have been wanting desperately from me.”
