365: The rule– only one person leaves.

The rule– only one person leaves.

The paparazzi who had been taking pictures, smiled broadly after successfully getting his hands on Jeslyn's secret. Who cares if it would destroy her reputation? So far he gets his hands on cold money! 2

… 

The family of four got home safely but before Jeslyn could go into the house, Maverick called her back and took her to the underground basement. 

In there was Emilee, Young Master Wu, and Christine all sitting around the cell. 

Young Master Wu and Emilee looked battered. From the look of things, they've fought and had exhausted their strength. 

"Oh, you got them before I did," Jeslyn smiled. 

"You were wasting too much time." He replied. 

"That's right. She has stayed too long on earth… Hey, Christine, your hope has been dashed, right? I told you," Jeslyn beamed at Christine who was staring daggers at her. 

"Jeslyn, do you think everything will be fine if you kill us? It won't bring your grandfather back, nor will you ever get the inheritance that I took from you! You lost everything, so there's no victory for you, but rather, you've been consumed by revenge that you've become soulless, just like me. In no time, you'll surpass me in wickedness and–" 

Jeslyn sighed and shook her head. "I had no idea that you love to talk so much. I might have lost my family as you said, but not my inheritance and my mom." Seeing the frown on Emilee's face, she smiled and continued. 

"Ah, you mustn't have known. Damien already bought his forgiveness with the original document that you thought you hid perfectly. Also, my mom is still alive. Not only that, all the wealth you've gathered for so long have been transferred to me. As your only living family member, aren't I smart?" 

"Y– you, how did you– how?!" Emilee panicked. 

"Is that a question from an Intelligent person like you? Oh my God! I'm busted to have thought you were smart. Hahaha… anyway, I don't have much time to spare, I need to go clear my reputation that you've tried so hard to damage, but before that, here's what we'll do. 

"There are three of you in there, but only one person is allowed to walk out of here alive, so best of luck ... Christine, I'd be glad if you can make it out alive, you know I promised you something and I haven't fulfilled it yet." 

Those words sent a chill down their spines. Never in a million years would anyone think that a pretty and sweet lady like Jeslyn would have such a wicked idea in her mind. 

Asking them to fight a battle royale is too much! But what can they do? In fact, the person who loved this idea the most was Young Master Wu. 

He had never stopped blaming the sisters for how his life and that of his family's turned out. If it wasn't for the sisters, he would have still been fine right now. 

"Emilee, I won't let you off!" Young Master Wu rushed to the wall and grabbed a spiked chain. Seeing this, Emilee also grabbed a sword. 

They were both tired but in the face of death and freedom, they suddenly found strength. 

As the fight was about to begin, Maverick pulled Jeslyn out of the cell. 

"You'll be Emilee's target if you stay behind." 

Jeslyn knew that too, so she stayed quietly in her husband's arms as they watched the fierce and hate-filled battle that was going on. She didn't tell them to fight but since they chose battle royale, who was she to not accept the entertainment? 

Christine was screaming and begging Jeslyn to stop. She doesn't know how to fight, so all she could do was run around the cell, bawling her eyes out, swearing, cursing, and saying whatever hateful words she could utter. 

"I'll stop the fight on one condition," Jeslyn said.

Hearing that, Christine's eyes lit up as she ran to the bars, holding them for dear life. Her aggressive tone a moment ago disappeared. "I'm willing to obey, please I don't want to die, let me out!"

"At the Lu hospital, there's a two-year-old child who needs blood. Her parent's blood doesn't match hers and the child's parents are old people. The child is also the only offspring they have–"

"I'll donate my blood!" she said without hesitation.

"Mn, I know... There's also another child who will be dying soon because her kidneys are bad. Would you like to run a test and see if you match?" 

"Ki– ki– kidney?"

"No, Kidneys… don't skip the 's' that's selfish." 

"Jeslyn, have you gone mad?!!!" Christine roared. 

"Definitely not. If at all, I'm being an 

angel who wants to save those kids because they deserve to live, unlike you. Christine," Jeslyn started walking slowly towards the bar gate. 

"Do you remember, when you came into our lives, you were sick and after you were tested, we found out you had kidney issues? Guess what happened."

Christine couldn't remember anything because she was still very young then.

"My mom wanted to give you her kidney but it wasn't a match. Mine was also tested but failed. We searched for it and in the end, a family sold their dying child's kidney for you to live. So don't you think you should return the kidney my mom bought you?"

"Jeslyn, you–"

"Did you forget what I told you in the restroom? I said I'd take back every single thing my mom gave you." 

"Jeslyn, don't go too far!!" Emilee thundered after killing Young Master Wu who gave her serious injuries that she couldn't stand still. 

"I don't bark back at dogs, they bark while I discipline them if they become unreasonable." 

"Are you calling me a dog?" Emilee's veins were about to snap from how stretched and visible they were. She was trying very hard to look sophisticated like she used to but every word that Jeslyn uttered was like a sharp sword piercing her heart. 

"Weren't you just barking? So what are you if not a dog?"

"Jeslyn!!" Emilee tried to pick herself up but couldn't. Her legs were badly injured. 

"I thought as much, so shut up, dog!" 

She turned to look at Christine and continued; "What do you say? Are you willing?" 

"No! I won't give you what you want, never!"

Jeslyn nodded, "then the rule still stands. Only one person can leave." 

The sisters looked at Jeslyn, what game is she playing with them? She obviously wants them to kill each other!
