Karen stared into his eyes, and it was clear this was no joke.
"| can't possibly marry you!" "And who do you want to marry?" Jeffrey's face darkened with a sudden and terrifying shift. "Karen, | don't want to lay a finger on Levi." "Don't you dare touch him!" she blurted out, instantly seeing the flames of rage in his eyes intensify, so she quickly added, "This whole situation has nothing to do with him! Don't drag innocent people into this! | never liked him, okay? You've already beaten him up, so just leave him alone." Never liked him.
Jeffrey clung to those words.

"No," Karen shook her head vehemently, "Jeffrey, | want to go back to my parents’ house. Can you take me there, please?" "No.
Jeffrey's response was immediate and unwavering, "I'll go back with you after our baby is six months old. Today, we'll just head to the city hall to get our marriage license, and then I'll give you back your phone.” He was so frightening, as if he had turned into someone else entirely! "Jeffrey, can't you just stop this, please?" Karen collapsed onto the bed, eyes welling up with fear.
Jeffrey reached out to wipe away the tears that threatened to escape and said, "Darling, as long as you're obedient and stay with me, I'l do anything you want." "I don't want to go to city hall, and | don’t want to keep this baby!" "I know you're scared of the pain, so whether it's a boy or a girl, we'll just have this one," Jeffrey kissed the corner of her eye.
"Don't reject me. | don't want to lose my mind with you." Just like he had the night before.
He didn't want that.
The nutritionist knocked on the door, breaking the deathly silence of the room.
"Mr. Turner, breakfast is ready.” "Mhm." Jeffrey turned his face to look at her, smiling gently. "Shall I carry you, or will you walk on your own?" "I'll walk." Karen caved. She knew better than to anger Jeffrey now; it wasn't the smart choice. Anyway, he would have to leave eventually, for work, or to deal with his parents! Plus, her own parents would realize she was missing and come looking.
She wouldn't be trapped for long.

Karen glanced over instinctively, and Jeffrey casually showed her the caller ID.
"It's Paige." He said it outright.
In Karen's presence, Jeffrey answered the call and put it on speakerphone.
Paige's hysterical voice came through immediately, "Jeffrey, it was you! You had my parents’ hotels all sealed off, didn't you?" "Yes," he admitted, expressionless.
"And did you have a hand in what happened to Arthur? Someone broke his arms and legs, he's facing amputation, and overnight, Arthur's family's accounts have been frozen, and they can't access a dime! Do you want him dead?" Jeffrey laughed, leaning back in his chair with a lazy and roguish air.
"He said he looked down on me for my ‘filthy money’; | just wanted to show him what this "filthy money’ can do." "You're ruthless! Absolutely inhumane!" "When you and he were conspiring against me, did you not anticipate this outcome?" Jeffrey's fingers intertwined, his gaze falling on Karen's shocked face. "You almost made me lose my child; this is merely a lesson."
