章節 340: Vital signs are stable…

"Nella, I'm done running. Now that I know who Alice really is, I'm going to make sure she ends up in jail myself," Ryan said quietly, his eyes calm as he looked at Nella.

"So, I need you to work with me."

The next moment—

The door crashed open with a loud bang, slamming to the ground.

Alice had kicked it in.

"Ryan!"

Ryan pressed the knife harder against Nella's neck.

He wasn't holding back.

A thin line of blood appeared on Nella's throat.

Her breathing quickened.

Ryan knew Alice was incredibly paranoid.

He had to make her believe he was really holding Nella hostage.

"Alice, what do we do with her? Should we call the cops?" Ryan's voice cracked, as if he was on the verge of tears.

But he was watching Alice's reaction closely.

Just as he expected, she didn't agree to call the police.

She was terrified of the cops, scared they'd uncover her true identity.
