Raina Lowell returned to her room, hoping that the police would quickly arrest Isabelle Everett and sentence her. As long as that woman goes to prison, she can leave here and won’t have to see the person she detests anymore. Actually, The Everetts and Adrian Grant all know that the uproar over Isabelle Everett these days was caused by Raina Lowell. But they all turned a blind eye and didn’t intervene. Ethan Everett was afraid his sister would get angry, so he didn’t mention wanting to find Isabelle Everett. Even if he thought about it, he tried his best to hold it in. Compared to the woman, he cares more about his family. Moreover, Isabelle Everett has continuously disappointed him. Early in the morning, Adrian Grant enthusiastically came to pick Raina up to work at the company. Mr. and Mrs. Everett noticed. They wanted to say something to their daughter, but feared making her unhappy again, so they just went along with it. Watching their daughter being picked up by Adrian Grant, Mrs. Everett said: "I wonder if Raina still wants to be with Adrian Grant. Recently, they’ve been going to and leaving work together, acting as if they’re dating." Mr. Everett, however, was indifferent. "You don’t know, in these days, Raina has signed several projects for the company. The directors are praising her endlessly." He might understand his daughter’s thoughts. But he also believes his daughter doesn’t have that many ulterior motives. Maybe he’s just overthinking it. If his daughter truly wants to marry Adrian Grant, all they can do as parents is to agree. "Then it seems Raina is genuinely considering the company. You should properly educate that failure of a son of yours and make sure he doesn’t get involved with Isabelle Everett’s affairs. If he angers Raina, I won’t spare him." Mr. Everett nodded in agreement. He sent his wife back inside and went to the company with his assistant. Mrs. Everett entered and saw Evelyn just coming downstairs, smiled and went to hold him. "Evelyn, after breakfast, grandma will take you to the amusement park, okay?" This child doesn’t seem to like anything. Every time he goes out, he looks sullen. Buy things for him, he’s also quite disinterested. It seems he just likes staying at home tinkering with the computer. That’s not good; today must take him out to have fun. Evelyn glanced at the living room and dining room, didn’t see his mom, knew she went to work again, so he agreed to his grandma’s suggestion out of boredom. After breakfast, he was taken to the amusement park by his grandma. Raina Lowell spent the whole day at the company, interacting with the company’s directors alongside her father. Thanks to Adrian Grant being a bridge, she signed several major projects for the company within a week, earning praise from the company’s directors. Gradually, they began to accept her assuming an important position in the company. In the afternoon, Raina Lowell again received news of Adrian Grant coming to pick her up after work. He had already driven to the company downstairs and was waiting. Thinking she still had things to use Adrian Grant for, she didn’t refuse. After finishing her work, Raina Lowell prepared to leave when her phone rang. It was a call from her mother. She pressed to answer. Instead, Isabelle Everett’s arrogant laughter came through: "Hahaha, Raina Lowell, if you want your son and mother to live, come alone to the address I sent. If you dare bring a second person, I’ll kill your mom and son." To ensure Raina Lowell believed, she forced Mrs. Everett to speak. "Don’t you love your daughter very much? Let her come quickly to save you." Mrs. Everett looked at her situation, saw Evelyn still unconscious, tied up next to her. She hurriedly warned into the phone, "Raina, call the police immediately, don’t come alone, Isabelle Everett is crazy, she’ll kill you." Raina Lowell recognized her mother’s voice and quickly asked: "Mom, are you and Evelyn okay?" "We’re fine, but don’t come alone..." Before Mrs. Everett could continue, Raina Lowell clearly heard the sound of a slap, likely on her mother’s face. She angrily shouted into the phone: "Isabelle Everett, I promise to come alone, please don’t harm my child and mom, my mom raised you for over twenty years." The woman was simply asking for trouble. Actually dared to kidnap her mother and child. Looks like she truly can’t take it anymore. Once the call was disconnected, an address was quickly sent, Raina Lowell rushed out the door. While running, she called the police. Upon reaching downstairs, she saw Adrian Grant genuinely waiting not far away. Raina Lowell quickly went over to get in the car, anxiously said: "Quickly, take me to the outskirts." Adrian Grant didn’t know what was happening, seeing Raina was so anxious and worried, he immediately drove without asking further. As the car drove through heavy traffic, seeing Raina was still tense, continually messaging and calling people. He couldn’t hold back and asked, "What happened?" Raina Lowell didn’t hide it, "Isabelle Everett kidnapped my mom and Evelyn, wants to kill me." Adrian Grant was shocked, as if he didn’t hear it clearly. "You say Isabelle Everett kidnapped your mom and Evelyn? Where did she get the nerve?" In his view, Isabelle Everett is just as powerless as Raina, timid like a mouse, even if sometimes a little extreme. But how could she dare be bold enough to kidnap people? "How should I know, maybe she’s just tired of living." This time, she must ensure Isabelle Everett never rises again. Raina Lowell not only notified the police but also informed her father and Ethan Everett. She wants everyone around her to see Isabelle Everett’s true colors. To make Isabelle Everett die, or spend her life in prison, unable to come out. "Raina, don’t worry. Isabelle wouldn’t dare harm them; she probably just wants to scare you." Adrian Grant spoke to comfort her. But it was clear he didn’t really believe Isabelle would do something so cruel. No matter what, Mrs. Everett is her foster mother. She’s raised her for over twenty years. Even if she resents being kicked out from The Everett Family, she wouldn’t go crazy enough to kidnap her own foster mother. Raina Lowell listened, feeling extremely uncomfortable. She turned to stare at Adrian Grant, "In your heart, Isabelle would never do anything bad, right?" Previously Isabelle had admitted to murder in a video, yet she never showed it to Adrian Grant. Now Isabelle had kidnapped her mother and child, and this man was still making excuses for her. Raina Lowell suppressed the anger in her chest, repeatedly reminding herself to deal with Isabelle and then leave with Evelyn. She never wants to see this man again. Even a glance at him makes her chest feel blocked and nauseated. Adrian Grant saw Raina was upset again and tried to explain, but Raina Lowell coldly interrupted: "Shut up, just don’t say anything now, I don’t want to hear your voice." Adrian Grant sighed, feeling that Raina’s temper was getting worse. But thinking she might be worried about her family, he didn’t mind and silently closed his mouth. After more than an hour’s drive, they finally reached the address provided by Isabelle Everett. It was a remote, unfinished building. The car stopped, and Raina Lowell hurriedly started searching for her mother and son. Adrian Grant separated to look as well. When Raina Lowell reached the fifth floor, she saw, by the staircase, her mother tied to a post and her son also bound and asleep next to her. She urgently wanted to rush toward them. But then she saw Isabelle Everett emerge from behind the post, pressing a sharp knife against her mother’s neck. Raina Lowell immediately stopped and shouted at Isabelle: "You want my life, right? Release my mom and my son, and I’ll come over for you to deal with." Isabelle Everett indeed only wanted Raina Lowell’s life. If it weren’t for Raina Lowell, how could she have fallen to this point? Even the police were looking for her. Knowing she had no future and couldn’t stand in this city anymore, she wanted nothing but to perish together with Raina Lowell. Seeing that Raina Lowell really came alone. She gestured to a bottle of poisoned water beside her. "Then drink it; if you do, I’ll release your son and mother." Raina Lowell glanced at the water. Knowing it wasn’t ordinary water, drinking it might really mean she ended up as meat on a chopping board. She stared at Isabelle, "You let them go first." Impatient, Isabelle pressed the knife harder against Mrs. Everett’s neck. "Raina Lowell, do you really not care whether she lives or dies?" "Well, you wouldn’t care if she lives or dies; after all, she never raised you, so I’ll start with your son!" Saying this, she crouched and grabbed the unconscious Evelyn, pressing the knife to his neck, threatening: "I’ll count to three; if you don’t drink it, I’ll cut your son’s throat." Mrs. Everett saw that Isabelle was truly heartless, afraid she might harm her little grandson, cried out anxiously: "Isabelle, channel your discontent toward me, why harm a child?" Her face was already swollen from Isabelle’s hit, with blood seeping from the corner of her lips. Isabelle glared at her with hatred, "Shut up! Did you ever sincerely consider me your daughter all these years? You never truly accepted me." "Today, I’ll let you watch how I kill your daughter." She shouted at Raina Lowell again, "Drink it quickly, or I’ll slit your son’s throat." Before Raina Lowell could respond. Mrs. Everett hurried to remind her, "Raina, you can’t drink it; it’s poison, it’ll kill you." "You’re really seeking death." Isabelle, infuriated, with a hideous expression, fiercely stabbed Mrs. Everett’s foot. Causing Mrs. Everett to cry out in pain, her swollen face instantly turned pale. Raina Lowell was frightened, quickly picked up the bottle and shouted: "Alright, I’ll drink; don’t hurt them, I’ll drink now." Google seaʀᴄh 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹·𝖿𝗂𝗋𝖾·𝗇𝖾𝗍 She unscrewed the cap, raised the bottle to her lips, and saw Adrian Grant appear behind Isabelle. He was gradually approaching Isabelle. Raina Lowell held her breath, trying not to let Isabelle notice Adrian Grant, diverting her attention. "Move the knife away from my son’s neck first, I’ll drink immediately." Isabelle wasn’t listening, losing patience, the knife slowly cut into the child’s tender flesh, blood flowing along the blade. Raina Lowell dared not hesitate, immediately poured the poison into her mouth. Mrs. Everett watching, cried out with heartache: "Raina, it’ll kill you, don’t drink..." Afraid that Raina Lowell would trick her, Isabelle shouted: "Swallow it!" Raina Lowell pretended to swallow but still ended up swallowing some. Mrs. Everett knew how potent the poison was, terrified of losing her daughter, she cried in anguish. "No, Raina, spit it out, the poison will truly kill you." However, her cries and concern for Raina Lowell’s appearance were intolerable to Isabelle. She raised the knife and aimed at Mrs. Everett’s leg again. At that moment, Adrian Grant lunged forward, pinning Isabelle to the ground, swiftly seizing the knife from her hand and dragging Evelyn away.
