The True Heiress's Return

Chapter 349

"Sobbing." With snot and tears all over her face, Xanthe looked a Fiona, who was holding a small knife and moving closer to Shakira. She struggled desperately and if she could have made a sound, she would have yelled herself hoarse. "No rush. I'll deal with her first and then get to you. Fiona shot Xanthe a glance and stood next to Shakira, who was curled up and gasping for air.

The knife in Fiona's hand waved carelessly, ready to slip and cul deeply into Shakira if she let her guard down.

Maybe I'll let you keep your body intact."

As Shakira felt her consciousness slipping away bit by bit, she deeply frowned. "Fiona, do you want Jaslene to die uneasy." "Shut up." Fiona screamed hysterically, tossing Shakira aside. "You have no right to talk about Grandma." Seeing the still proud and arrogant look on Shakira's face completely set her off. "I'm going to kill you. I'm going to kill you." She raised her hand and was ready to stab the small knife into Shakira's chest-

"Ms. Banks, Mr. Banks is calling." An elderly woman appeared looking worried. Fiona's face was full of anger. "Why is he calling me?Haven't they already kicked me out."

Perhaps they've thought about it and want to apologize now?" Fiona's defiant
