President's Substitute Wife novel Chapter 274

I obviously felt something stabbing my skin and into my body!

The next second, the pain in my back began to widen. It was getting more and more painful!

I bit my lips and turned my head. I saw Inez standing behind me. She still held the knife that just stabbed me in her hand. It was a fruit knife.

The metal blade was full of blood!

It hurt!

I had never had such a pain!

I wanted to stand very much but the pain was beyond my imagination. As soon as I turned around and moved my leg, my wound moved. I knelt down in pain.

“What are you doing!” Marlin obviously didn’t expect Inez to stab me!

Inez was not afraid but ferocious. “Can’t you see that? She won’t give us the house for sure! Later, the third son of Jessop Family will surely come. We’ll die then! We can kill her! We’ll be sentenced to death at most! If she dies, we will not suffer!”

Listening to Inez, I immediately regreted it.

I should have promised.

It was just over eight. Ming would come at eleven at the earliest.

I was afraid my blood would run dry by eleven o’clock.

No!

I couldn’t die! I had Lester.

Sean was married. I couldn’t expect him to raise Lester, so he only had me, his mother!

I couldn’t die.

I thought about this and hesitated. I grabbed Inez and said, “I’ll give it to you!”

“What?” Inez was stunned.

I stood up. “Ming has a real estate certificate for that house. You can contact him for me!”

Inez was excited, “what? Why does he have our house?”

“Anyway, now the house belongs to him. Call emergency and help me. I will sign. I will give it to you!”

I put my hand over the wound on my back. I could feel the blood trickling out. I had more and more viscous liquid in my hand.

And my body was getting colder and colder.

It was like my life was running out.

With that, I got up slightly. I suffered and took a piece of paper and a pen from the table. I held the wound with my left hand and held the pen with my right hand. I wrote that I would give this house to Inez and Marlin.

In fact, I knew that this note did not count at all.

After all, the house belonged to Ming. I couldn’t decide.

But at this moment, I must let them believe me!

When I finished, I gave him the paper and said, “give me the phone. I need to make an emergency call.”

Inez hesitated for a moment and took out the phone. When she wanted to make a phone call, Marlin came straight up and stopped her.

He stooped and picked up the paper on the ground. He took a look and tore it to pieces and threw it on the ground. He sneered. “Do you think we are fools? Since the house is not yours, you signed June. June is dead now! What’s the use of her name?”

Sure enough, Inez was stupid, but Marlin was not.

Inez suddenly understood. She pointed her knife at me. “June, how dare you cheat us!”

“Then what are you going to do?” I looked at him. “I can do anything.”

I couldn’t die.

I couldn’t die for Lester!

Marlin stood there and thought for a moment. He suddenly smiled. His thin face was full of hate. He said, “of course we will watch you die.”

I frowned a little.

Marlin didn’t explain it to me. He said to Inez, “put the knife away. Wipe this place clean and make sure we don’t leave our fingerprints or anything and leave!”

As soon as he said it, I knew what he was going to do!

But Inez didn’t understand, “why?”

“This is a house and there is no surveillance camera. We haven’t been here.” Marlin paused and continued, “if she dies, we can say Ming robbed our daughter of her property. We can sue and get the house back!”

“Ah!” Inez suddenly realized and nodded, “yes, yes!”

She cleaned the knife and put it away and began to wipe.

At this time, I shed a lot of blood.

I had almost no strength.

I was cold and my eyelids were heavy.

If I didn’t hold on, I would fall asleep next second.

“No, help me, help me!” I was desperate.

Marlin was afraid I would make trouble. He grabbed my leg and pulled me into the small meeting room!

My wound was on my waist. He pulled me so my wound began to ache!

“Ah!” I cried in pain.

But Marlin turned a deaf ear.

He pulled me to the small meeting room and closed the door. He stood outside and looked at my painful expression. He smiled happily, “June, are you worth it? I regret having a daughter like you the most.”

“You...”

I wanted to scold him, but I hurt too much.

Marlin saw me like this, and the smile on her face was more pleasant. “June, you are my daughter. Although you are dead now, you are useful.”

“You are not my father at all!”

I lay there and dare not move.

I was afraid of accidentally touching my wound and making myself colder.

“Yeah, I only have one daughter, Molly. Without you, we would have saved Molly!” Marlin’s eyes turned fierce as he spoke. “We’ve given him all the money, but because it was not enough, he finally took Molly to the ship!”

Listening to Marlin, I realized what he was talking about.

“Ha ha.” I looked at Marlin. “Do you think you can save her? Ward didn’t want us to live. But I was lucky...”

“We listened to the black box on the ship. You stabbed Molly with a fruit knife and pushed her into the fire and made her unable to escape!”

Marlin looked at me and grabbed the handle of the conference room door with his hands.

His eyes were full of hate!

That so-called black box was a fake.

I knew, but I knew Marlin wouldn’t believe it.

How could he believe me? When did he believe me?

My eyelids were getting heavier and heavier. Marlin didn’t speak. He turned away and said to Inez in the distance, “come here and wipe the doorknob.”

“OK.”

Inez replied.

I lay there and my blood almost completely soaked my clothes.

Was I going to die?

What about Lester?

If I died, Lester would be sad.

Who would help me?

When I was in despair, the doorbell rang.

Was Ming here?

There was hope in my heart.

The moment the doorbell rang, I heard silence outside. Neither Inez nor Marlin spoke.

My cell phone rang upstairs.

This ring was not from my personal cell phone. It seemed that Ming was not here.

If it was someone else, no matter who he was, he would leave when he heard that there was no one in the room.
