Chapter 97 You Are A Liar (Part Two) (1/2)
Finney was feeling absolutely frightened. She picked up her phone, getting ready to call the police. Meanwhile, Essie ran into the kitchen and took out a kitchen knife. She thought that if her cousin-in-law failed to deal with him, then she'd be able to scare him away using the knife.
Zac gasped and grabbed the knife from her hand at once, afraid that she would hurt herself by accident. ”I'm here. What are you worried about?”
