Chapter 501 You Wouldn’t Dare

“You wouldn’t dare!” Jane’s voice dripped with contempt as she fixed her gaze on Fanny, who visibly sweated under her scrutiny. The tension in the van became palpable as Fanny, feeling the weight of Jane’s disdain, struggled to maintain her composure.

“Please find a nearby bathroom to stop at,” Jane finally instructed the driver. Without hesitation, the driver followed her instructions, and soon, they stopped at a roadside location.

Fanny, feeling grateful, whispered her thanks before clutching her stomach and making her way to the public restroom.

Meanwhile, Harley and Jane remained in the car, with their bodyguard trailing Fanny to stand watch at the restroom door. Once Fanny disappeared behind the restroom door, Harley broke the silence, “Do you think she’s attempting to deceive us?”

Jane shrugged nonchalantly, “It matters little. As long as we have someone monitoring her, she won’t escape.” Their sole reason for bringing Fanny along was to ensure she didn’t flee before seeing Florence.

Whatever other plans she might harbor were inconsequential to them. That’s why when Fanny sent a text message to James earlier, they dismissed it without concern.

When Fanny reappeared from the restroom, her demeanor had noticeably shifted, appearing less strained than before.

“Sorry. I had a bit of a stomach ache earlier,” Fanny murmured softly to Jane and Harley as she settled back into the van.

Now, Fanny seemed considerably more composed, both physically and mentally.

Having exchanged messages with Christopher, she felt assured of contacting him in front of Florence without the fear of being caught.

Harley shot Fanny a disdainful glance but maintained her silence.

“If you experience discomfort again, bear with it,” Jane stated calmly, giving Fanny a pointed look.
