Chapter 919
Shannon and Bethany were alarmed to learn of the fatal shooting
incident, Bella’s and Steven’s hospitalizations, and the manhunt for
Winston.
“M-Mom… What do we do now? Argh!”
Smack!
Shannon’s eyes bulged as rage consumed her. She slapped Bethany across her sweaty face, knocking her over the coffee table. Bethany
could barely stand up from the pain.
Despite living in privilege, Shannon was all muscle when it came to
hitting her daughter.
Bethany’s cheeks swelled up. Cupping her face, Bethany sobbed and stared maliciously at Shannon through her loose strands of hair over
her face.
“You can’t do anything right, you idiot! Why did you have to do that sent you to finish off the maid with Winston. Why did you attack
Bella?”
Though enraged, Shannon kept her voice down and uttered harshly,” Who do you take Bella for? She is Wyatt’s precious daughter, Nigel’s favorite, and the woman of Justin’s dreams. If you want to put
yourself in jeopardy, by all means, go ahead. Just don’t drag me down
with you.”
“I only did it because you’re my mother. Don’t you get it?”

Bethany wobbled to her feet and wailed, “Even you said it was the
chance of a lifetime. Bella and Linny were meeting in secret, so her
security detail wouldn’t be there. As a former contracted killer,
Winston could’ve crushed her like a bug. The bitch would have
nothing on you if we succeeded.”
“Did you kill her, though? Winston is now wanted!”
With her fury boiling over, Shannon was tempted to strangle her idiot
daughter.
Shaking with rage, Shannon grabbed a throw to wrap herself in.
She needed to get a shot from Simon tomorrow. She could not
control her emotions or sleep without the help of drugs.
“I lost Harry and now Winston all because of you!”
“You can’t blame me for Harry. You wanted to mess with Celeste. What does it have to do with me?” Bethany would only own up to her
own mistake.
Shannon could only be relieved that Harry, Bethany’s birth father, di
not sell her out.
The police were on a nationwide hunt for Winston. Justin had
reached out to his connections to arrest him.
Winston could succumb to the pressure and give up her name.
The sudden ringing of Shannon’s phone startled the mother and
daughter.
She grabbed the phone with shaky hands. The call was from a private

number.
It took a while before she accepted the call. “Hello?”
It was silent on the other end.
“Is that you, Winston?”

“It’s me, Mrs. Salvador.” Winston’s voice was husky. The signal was
choppy at best.
“Where are you now?”
“I’m somewhere safe. I need money for the road, Mrs. Salvador.
Please get me the money in three days.”
Shannon turned her back toward Bethany and asked in a low voice.
How much do you need?”
“$200 million and a boat. I’m going to Terranova by sea.”
“$200 million?”
Shannon gasped sharply, her eyes bulging in rage. “Where am I supposed to find you that kind of money? Besides, your reckless
move cost the whole operation. You have the nerve to ask for $2 This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
million!”
“Mrs. Salvador, you know better than anyone else the extremes I went
to in order to clean up your messes over the years.”
Winston’s flat tone bore a threat. “I have done a lot to secure your
position as the chairman’s wife. I think $200 million for my retirement isn’t much. I deserve the payment.”
“You!”
