Chapter 145- Rest In Peace
Beatrice POV
I froze. I couldn't breathe. My whole body went still.
This man was serious.
And the worst part? He hadn't even heard the real reason why Tyler left. If he ever found out I lost the money to my ex-bodyguard… that I fell in love and got scammed like a fool…
He'd kill me for real.
I swallowed hard, my throat dry as sand.
"I'm sorry," I said quickly. "Declan, please. Don't get angry. If you kill me now, there'll be no one left to look for Tyler. We both need to find him. Please."
He paused.
Then, he threw his head back—and laughed. A loud, evil laugh that chilled my bones.
He was smirking again. Like he had all the power in the world.
He leaned in close again, his lips nearly touching my ear.
"You really think I care if you die?"
His voice was low but heavy.
"You're so useless, I don't even think Tyler would notice you're gone."
I froze again.
"In fact," he said slowly, "you just gave me an idea."
My stomach dropped.
