My Billionaire Mom novel Chapter 397

Karen maintained eye contact with Duncan as she lifted him up with one hand, her face was still impassive. Exerting a bit of force, the sound of bones crunching was heard.

"Ah! Dad! She's going to kill me!" Duncan wailed. He was scared out of his wits. For the first time, he felt death was knocking on his front door.

He tried to struggle out of Karen's grip but to no avail. He was terrified.

"Please don't kill me, Auntie. I'm sorry, alright? I'll admit to my wrong-doings. Please don't kill me," Duncan continued to plead, his heart filled with panic and horror.

Karen merely glared at him and patronized, "Oh, so now I'm your 'Auntie'? I thought you forgot that we were related! How dare you even think about killing your own cousin!"

"I know, I'm sorry. I really am. Please forgive me," Duncan begged desperately.

At this moment, he knew Karen had bested him.

"Karen, don't make me repeat myself! Let go of Duncan this instant!" Brayden's deep voice echoed through the phone loudly.

His heart ached as he heard Duncan's painful struggle over the phone. "How could her useless son compare to Duncan? She will pay for this!" he swore in his mind.

"Dad, she's going to kill me!" Duncan repeated. He was genuinely scared out of his mind.

Watching the scene unfold, Yvette had been frightened by it as well. An enraged Karen was simply terrifying.

When she had tried to poison Karen last time, she remembered that Karen had not been this angry. But watching her threaten Duncan now, Yvette witnessed exactly how merciless Karen could be if she was truly angered.

"Karen, do you hear me? If you kill my son, I swear I'll kill everyone you love. I'll have your man killed today, your son killed tomorrow, and then I'll kill you myself the day after! Don't you dare test me! I'm giving you a chance right now. Take it or suffer the consequences!" Brayden burst out in a fit of anger.

"Save your breath. I don't care, I'm going to end him today, once and for all!" Karen declared. She started to squeeze hard on Duncan's neck. A loud crack could be heard as she did.

"Dad," Duncan moaned in pain. He was helpless.

"Karen, you forced me!" Brayden uttered menacingly in fury.

"It's you! I've told you countless times! Don't mess with my son. Don't mess with me. I've given you the opportunity to avoid all this, but you didn't take it! It's your own bloody fault!" Karen's eyes were blood-red as she yelled.

"I'll kill your man. I'll have him tortured to death. The same goes for Chuck! I'll break his bones one by one and watch him slowly wither away..." Brayden roared out.

"Ah!" Duncan suddenly let out a painful scream.

"Duncan!" Brayden yelled in both anger and distress.

Karen had gotten her feelings under control. She was surprised to realize that she had not yet killed Duncan. However, just as that thought crossed her mind, Yvette ran towards them with a dagger in hand and pierced Duncan's heart.

Chuck was stunned by that. Willa looked on in astonishment.

"Yvette Jordan, Yvette..." Duncan recited her name as he slowly passed out. He was on the verge of death now. He did not expect himself to die at the hands of a woman he fancied.

"Who is that?! Duncan?" Brayden asked helplessly.

"Chuck is my husband. If you want to kill him, it'll be over my dead body!" Yvette spoke with red-rimmed eyes. Having heard Brayden's threat to torture Chuck to death, she couldn't help herself from attacking Duncan.

She had taken her dagger out just like that and stabbed Duncan fiercely.

"Yvette, you killed my son?!" Brayden screeched through the phone.

"Yes, I did. I killed him. So if you want to torture anyone, torture me. Don't hurt Chuck," Yvette said calmly as she pulled the dagger out of Duncan's body. With a loud cry, Duncan let out his final breath. He could no longer prop his head up.

Yvette had stabbed him to death.

Karen took another look at Yvette and loosened her grip. Duncan fell to the floor as an expression of undisguised surprise took over Karen's features.

"You better watch out, Yvette Jordan! I swear I'll find you, torture you, and then kill you! And Karen, I'm disowning you from the family! You are no longer my sister! I'll have you and your whole family killed, you hear me?!" Brayden howled through the phone in anger and devastation.

"Crack!" The phone was destroyed with a crunch.

"Then, come find me!" Yvette said as she stomped on the phone, breaking it. The call was disconnected.

Chuck was shocked and thought helplessly, "What did Yvette just do? Why did she drag herself into the mess?"

It was quiet for a while. Chuck, Karen, and Willa were all just staring at Yvette.

None of them had expected her to kill Duncan.

Karen was the most surprised. Yvette had killed without fear. What was more, the cruelty she saw in Yvette's eyes was so much more vicious than herself could ever muster. If given enough time, Yvette could potentially surpass her.

Karen looked at Chuck at that moment and contemplated. "Now, the biggest obstacle between Chuck and Yvette is me," she thought.

......

Meanwhile, there was a middle-aged man in a mansion somewhere in the United States. The man was dressed in a suit and looked about fifty years old. He had his hand raised and smacked it hard against the table in anger. The table was broken into pieces instantly.

"I want all of you go to hell!" the middle-aged man, Brayden, swore loudly.
