The Secret Heir's Return to Wealth and Love novel Chapter 1317

Just when Rosalynn thought she was toast, a hard smack landed on Annie's arm. The sudden pain made her drop the syringe she was holding.

"BlackLion!" Annie held her wrist, looking shocked at the tall man who strode from Rosalynn's side.

Rosalynn followed her gaze. It was one of Robert Magnus's hitmen.

BlackLion glanced at Rosalynn, his face impassive, then turned back to Annie. "Robert said we can't kill her."

BlackLion didn't pull his punches. Annie's wrist was already swelling.

But Annie seemed to shrug off the pain. Her eyes were red and out of control. "She's the root of all evil that killed Heatherway, why should she live? Why?"

"Robert said either Wayne or Rosalynn has to live. He chose Wayne, so Rosalynn must live," BlackLion said, icy cold.

Rosalynn's heart rate shot up.

She made a silent wish, "Wayne, you must remember, we still have Cory and Ivy. They can't become orphans. So you can't be tricked! You mustn't be tricked!"

"It's not his call!" Annie resolutely said, "either Rosalynn or Wayne, they both must die!"

BlackLion didn't respond, he walked over to stand in front of Rosalynn.

"Annie, Robert has a message for you." BlackLion's gaze was fixed on Annie, a slight smirk on his face. "He wholeheartedly agrees with you. Everyone who bullied Heatherway should pay the price."
