章節 61: The Deal

"I want you to do something for me and I'd you did it well, with no flaws, I'll get you away from here; you and your child will live a normal life free from curses... Demons."

The weight of Kim's words from that fateful day lingered heavily on Jess's mind, the day when Scott's life teetered on the brink of death.

"Are you suggesting a t-trade?" Jess had stammered, her voice betraying her fear and uncertainty.

"Honey, trade is when you're given an option to choose from,"

Kim had replied with a chilling calmness, her words cutting deeper than Jess had anticipated. Kim's offer wasn't merely an exchange; it was an ultimatum, a demand cloaked in the guise of salvation.
