“Mom, where's Braxton? Is he not at the event venue?”
“Soon. We're almost there.”
Passing by a thick bush, Jennifer spotted a minibus by the side of the road. Sitting in the driver's seat was none other than Zander Stern.
“Uncle Zander?” She instinctively shivered at the sight of her uncle.
Using Linda's love for money as a gauge, there would only be one word to describe Zander's love for money—obsessive.
That man had an excessive addiction to gambling.
Back then, Zander was also a man who was married with kids. Sadly, he eventually lost everything he had because of his gambling addiction—from his property to his wife and children.
Jennifer had thought neither she nor her family would be in contact with Zander from then on. Little did she imagine that she would meet him again that night.
Sensing something amiss, she immediately turned around and tried to flee. However, just as she whipped her head around, a middle-aged woman, who had been in ambush, sprung out and grabbed onto her.
“Aunt Colleen? Why are you also here?”
Jennifer's eldest aunt, Colleen Wilson, and Zander were people of the same kind. They were willing to do anything for money.
With the hemp ropes she had prepared beforehand, Colleen tied Jennifer up. “Your parents told me about your matters. Jenny, we've all watched you grow up. How will we bear to watch you jump into the burning pit? Mr. Irving has money and power. You won't suffer if you marry him,” she expressed smilingly.
Hearing those words, Jennifer froze.
“What do you want to do? Let go of me!”
Colleen wrapped her arms around Jennifer tightly and yelled at Leonard, “Why are you still standing there? Hurry; come over and help me!”
With that, the three threw Jennifer into the minibus before shutting its doors tight.
