He Lost Me to His Best Friend novel Chapter 970

"What do you think?"

A second later, a bloodcurdling scream ripped from Sylvia's throat!

Kane violently shoved her backward onto the bed. Without a moment of hesitation, he ripped the leather belt from his waist right in front of her eyes.

Seeing the belt, the horrifying memories of that rainy night when she was seventeen came crashing back like a tidal wave!

She screamed in absolute terror, but before she could make another sound, Kane's hand clamped down brutally over her mouth—

Realizing something catastrophic was happening on the other end of the line, a spike of cold dread pierced Yardley's chest. He turned to sprint for the elevators, desperate to get to his car.

But before he could take a step, Veronica threw her arms out, blocking his path.

Right in front of the stunned office staff, she began to openly mock him.

"Wow, Yardley, I am just now realizing how incredibly devoted you are to your precious cousin!"

"You have three actual sisters, two of whom are currently sitting in a jail cell, and I haven't seen you lift a finger in a panic for them. But your cousin? The one with no blood relation? You are practically throwing yourself into a fire for her!"

"You two grew up together... don't tell me you two have some twisted little affair going on?"

"No wonder Scarlett was so desperate for a divorce over her! It all makes sense now!"

The second the vile accusations left Veronica's mouth, Yardley's expression turned absolutely lethal.

"Get out of my way, Veronica! I do not have time for your insane delusions. Sylvia is in danger!"
