Upgrading My Ex to His Uncle Chapter 201
It was unexpected that the suspects would attempt to grab Valarie as she jumped from the building, causing her to hit her head and fall unconscious.
Damon's expression darkened. "Take those two to the police station. As for Jacqueline, send a few people to capture her and bring her to Nyla. Let her handle it herself."
…
Jacqueline had just arrived at the airport when the Rainfords' men blocked her path. She scowled. "Get out of my way! I'll miss my flight!"
The leader of the group was the Rainfords' butler, who usually took orders only from Byron.
"Ms. Rainford, your father wants me to take you back," the butler said.
"I'm not going back. I'm going abroad! If you don't move, don't blame me for being rude!" Jacqueline yelled.
The butler, seemingly unperturbed, signaled to his team. They moved forward and forcibly dragged Jacqueline to the car.
"Let go of me! You're just the Rainfords' lackeys. Don't touch me! I'll make sure my dad deals with you!" Jacqueline screamed.
No matter how much she cursed, their expressions remained unchanged. They stuffed her into the car and drove away from the airport.
As soon as Jacqueline arrived home, Byron slapped her hard.
"You fool! I told you to apologize to Nyla, and now look—there's no news from Nyla, and you've caused Valarie to fall into a coma! Are you trying to kill me?" Byron scolded.
Jacqueline stood there, stunned. How did her father know about this?
At that moment, a man in a suit stood up from the sofa and looked at Byron calmly. "Mr. Rainford, since Ms. Rainford is back, we'll take her away now."
Jacqueline felt a shiver run down her spine as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.
"Dad… what's going on? Where are they taking me?" she asked.
Her eyes were filled with fear, but Byron replied icily, "You've made a mess and angered the wrong people. You have to face the consequences."
He turned to Spencer, looking slightly cautious. "Mr. Hogg, my daughter has made mistakes, and we won't discuss the consequences she must face. We just hope that Mr. Sumner will show some mercy and spare her life."
Spencer smiled. "Don't worry, Mr. Rainford. We're all civilized people. We wouldn't take lives."
Hearing this, Byron sighed with relief.
Given the current state of the Rainford Group, they wouldn't dare complain even if Damon actually killed Jacqueline. They could only blame their own foolishness for thinking Damon was as lenient as Clark.
Now that they had brought this disaster upon themselves, they had no choice but to endure, even if it was painful.
Jacqueline, in a panic, subconsciously began to back away. "Dad, help me! I don't want to go! I know I was wrong! I'll listen to you from now on. I don't want to go with them…"
Byron didn't even look at her or seem to hear her desperate pleas. He turned and walked toward his study.
Her cries grew fainter and eventually disappeared.
…
Half an hour later, as the car stopped in front of Hyphen Hotel, Jacqueline's eyes widened with terror. "What are you going to do?"
"You'll find out soon, Ms. Rainford," Spencer replied calmly.
"Don't make me get out of the car!" Jacqueline shrieked.
Despite her desperate struggles, two men in black forcibly dragged her out of the vehicle. They guided her up the stairs, one on each side.
As they approached Room 302, where Valarie's incident had occurred, Jacqueline's fear intensified.
When they finally brought her into the room, her terror reached its peak, especially upon seeing Nyla sitting on the sofa with a cold, unyielding expression.
Jacqueline was thrown roughly to the floor, landing awkwardly at Nyla's feet.
