Anger burned inside me. I wanted to kill her, but I didn’t dare move.
“…your family’s company… and thanks to your assistant, I have all the passwords to every account you own. By the end of the day, your entire fortune will disappear into a hundred anonymous accounts, never to be seen again. I will have destroyed you utterly and completely.”
“Too bad about the ‘suffering for the rest of my life’ part,” I said sarcastically.
She smiled again, that horrible serial killer’s leer. “No, you will – it’s just that part will be much shorter. But in the two minutes you have left, you’re going to watch your fiancée die in front of you – and then you’re going to die, knowing that I won.”
My eyes widened as I realized what she was going to do.
Jesus, no –
And then Lily moved, her arms a blur of motion.
One hand slammed into Miranda’s wrist, bumping it away from pointing at me –
And seconds later, there was the whrrrrrrr CLICK of handcuffs.
When it was all over, Miranda was chained to the metal armrest.
