Chapter 304 Pawn

• Marah forced herself to suppress the shiver in her chest and asked again, “Didn’t you say the driver just had to pay a fine? How did it suddenly turn into…” —she didn’t finish, but the word “death” hung heavily in the air.
• The driver had been released after the crash. Since Adela hadn’t suffered any serious injuries, he was only facing a massive compensation bill—a sum that meant nothing to Bard.
• But still, the news of the driver’s sudden death rattled Marah. Only for a second, though. She knew she’d already passed the point of no return. If she wanted Layson, there was no turning back. All she could do now was charge straight ahead.
