Chapter 6 Turning the Tables

"But it was you said that taking sleeping pills wouldn't be painful, so I wanted to buy them. I was so scared of pain, and when I woke up, I felt terribly pain, so I got angry," Callie said with the grievance.

So, it was this woman who had been doing things behind the scenes. He knew Callie was too timid to commit suicide.

Dane looked at Elsa as if he were looking at a dead person.

"Take her away, I don't want to see her anymore," he said coldly.

"No, no, Dane, you can't treat me like this, please, don't arrest me," Elsa screamed, and her face turned pale upon hearing Dane's order.

"Dane, Dane, let's talk things over, Elsa is so naive, she must not have known that Callie would really commit suicide. She is, after all, Callie's sister. Please let her go, I beg you," Mrs. Bryan panicked. She knew the consequences of her daughter being taken away and couldn't care about her status. She pleaded and almost knelt to him.

‘Naive?’ Callie looked at the tearful duo and sneered in her heart.

That's right, in her previous life, she was fooled by Elsa's naive appearance.

Feeling her unstable breath, Dane's eyes narrowed, and he tightened his grip on her.

Callie felt his tension, looked up at him, and saw the worry in his eyes that he couldn't hide.

Her heart warmed.

Maybe he was the only man in the world who truly loved her.

Seeing their affectionate gazes, Elsa trembled with anger. But she couldn't say anything at this point, and her jealousy could only be suppressed deep within her heart.

She said in her heart, ‘One day, everything that belongs to Callie will be mine, Elsa's. I swear!’

"Callie, tell Mr. Cooper to let your sister go. Are you really so heartless as to send her to her death?" Mrs. Bryan said resentfully.

"Ma'am, how can you wrong me like this? My husband is only taking my sister away, and he didn’t said he would do anything. It's not as serious as you say, right, honey?" Callie playfully winked at Dane after speaking.

Dane was so charmed by her glance that he nodded without thinking.

Callie turned back to Mrs. Bryan with an expression like saying, ‘See, I told you so,’ infuriating Mrs. Bryan to the point of near fainting.

Seeing that she wanted to say something, Callie frowned and suddenly complained, "I'm so hungry." She even pretended to touch her flat stomach.

"Clare, get food ready," Dane immediately ordered his men.

Seeing that their boss had no intention of releasing Elsa, several subordinates dragged her away as she cried and screamed.

"Mrs. Bryan, this way please!" Mrs. Bryan tried to plead for mercy but was blocked by a quick-thinking officer. She had no choice but to grit her teeth and run out while listening to her daughter's cries, ‘Alright, Callie, let’s see!’

The two didn't stay long. They just went upstairs, and before Dane could ask about his doubts, the phone rang.

Callie could clearly see his expression darken as he hung up the phone.

"What's wrong?" Seeing that he seemed to be leaving, Callie's heart tightened, and she grabbed his hand.

"Some trickster are making a fuss behind my back. I'll go out for a while and be back soon," Dane said coldly.

Callie understood what was going on right away. In her previous life, after she committed suicide, someone leaked the news.
