Chapter 695: Kidnapping Ella

As soon as those words escaped Britney's mouth, Maxime's expression changed dramatically. He halted in his tracks and spun around to face her, his eyes narrowing as he struggled to comprehend what he had just heard.

Britney maintained eye contact, her smile growing more cunning by the second. "You want Jasper out of the gang, and so do I," she reiterated. "We share a common goal."

Maxime's brow furrowed, his mind racing with questions. "But why? Jasper is your fiancé." He wanted to know her intentions.

Britney's face twisted in anger, her voice rising in pitch. "He cheated on me," she snarled, her eyes flashing with indignation. "I want to punish him, and that woman, Ella Jones, too."

Maxime grasped the underlying emotions at play; it was a tale of jealousy and betrayal. Understanding her perspective, he found common ground and realized they could be allies in their shared mission.
