章節 550: Lance’s ultimatum (Part-1)

Lance's expression changed drastically, a hint of nervousness and apprehension crossing his eyes. However, Abigail's eyes sparkled with a glimmer of hope and excitement, for she knew that her father had finally arrived. She couldn't resist a subtle, triumphant curl of her lips as she observed Lance's disconcerted expression.

She was, after all, a captive in this perilous game, and she realized that discretion and caution were her best bets for survival.
