He kidnapped and tortured Jeslyn and also stabbed me in the abdomen with a knife. I have enough evidence to put him behind bars for at least ten years. Arent you going to ask about him and beg me to have mercy on him? Jessie, her back still turned against him, said nothing for a while.

With a sigh, she finally turned around and said, Well, you have my attention; tell me what you are going to do to him.
