Can You Afford to Wait? Bianca found herself sandwiched between the two men. It felt suffocating, but she couldn't do anything about it, so she chose to ignore them.

After hearing that Malcolm had moved back to the house next to Bianca, Natalie felt like it was a terrifying battleground.

"Are they out for your blood?" she asked Bianca after taking a deep breath.

"T'1l take theirs first!" Bianca's eyes flashed with danger as she spoke.

Natalie paused, sensing the danger in Bianca's tone. She knew Bianca was angry; anyone would be in her shoes.

"When do you plan to leave?" They had agreed she'd leave after Nancy's case, but now...

Bianca reiterated her plan and said,

"Once that scoundrel is in prison, I'm out." That was how Bianca saw John. Perhaps that was why Natalie had been friends with Bianca for so long. She was passionate and righteous, showing her best qualities.

"It might not be that easy," Natalie warned.

She understood what Bianca wanted, but they also knew Malcolm. Zane was always gentle and respected others’ choices, but Malcolm was different. He would do anything to get what he wanted, even if it meant threatening those around him. He had even interfered with Nancy's case to force Bianca to come back to him.

So, what about Nancy's husband? If he knew Bianca demanded a certain outcome, knowing Malcolm, he might resort to threatening her.

Bianca caught Natalie's implication, and a dangerous glint flashed in her eyes. "If it comes to that..." What then? Clearly, Natalie realized what Bianca did —Malcolm would definitely resort to such tactics. Bianca closed her eyes and said, "Then I'll wait him out." She wanted to see how patient that man really was, and how far he was willing to go. If he wanted to threaten her with everything, she'd show him whether she cared about those things or not.
