Chapter 82

BLAIRE

Tears streamed down my face as I pleaded with Catherine, my voice trembling with desperation. “Please, Catherine, I’m begging you. Let go of my son. Do whatever you want with me; just leave my son alone. He’s innocent. He has nothing to do with any of this.”

My heart clenched painfully as I continued, and my words choked with emotion. “If you want to kill me, go ahead. I’m more than willing to accept my fate. But my son-he’s still young. Please…” My voice cracked as I watched helplessly, my son’s hands bound behind his back beside me and his innocent eyes filled with fear and confusion.

“You still don’t get it, do you?” She sneered, her voice dripping with contempt. “None of you will ever leave this boat alive.”

As Catherine’s menacing words echoed through the cabin of the speedboat, a heavy silence fell upon us, broken only by the rhythmic thrum of the engines and the distant sound of waves crashing against the hull. In that moment, time seemed to stand still, each heartbeat echoing the ominous finality of Catherine’s threat.

Despite the fear gnawing inside me, I refused to let despair consume me. Clenching my fists, I summoned every ounce of courage I could muster, determined to find a way out of this nightmare and save my son from whatever fate Catherine had in store for us.

“Please, Catherine,” I implored, my voice trembling with a mixture of desperation and defiance. “I’ll do anything you ask, but please spare my son. He’s done nothing to deserve this.” I pleaded once again. I may sound like a broken record, but I won’t stop begging her if it’s my only way to save my son.

Catherine’s lips curled into a cruel smile, her eyes gleaming with malice as she regarded me with disdain. “Oh, how touching,” she sneered, her tone dripping with sarcasm. “But it’s too late for bargaining now. You should have thought about the consequences before you decided to show yourself again with your ba st ard son.”

Her words hit me hard, but I refused to lose hope, even though things looked really tough. I believed there was still a chance to save Blaze, somehow outsmart Catherine, and make it out of this nightmare alive.

As the boat raced over the dark waters, I urgently scoured the cabin for an escape route. Yet, the confined space left me feeling trapped and helpless. Even if we
