Chapter 414

Lightning flashed across the sky and illuminated the deep blue night sky. The loud
thunderclap gave Yeva such a fright that she shuddered. Everything in the Jefferson’s Residence was
great, but the attic was leaking! The attic was already humid and stuffy, to begin with. Once it poured, it
was even more insufferable.

Yeva wanted to move toward the wall to hide a little, but both her hands were tied up with ropes. Her
ankles were also tied up with a chain used to leash dogs, so it was especially short. As a result, she
was unable to move at all.

The Jefferson family felt that she was noisy, so they stuffed a rag that had been used to wipe down
unknown things, so she had a weird taste in her mouth. Even if she wanted to scream, she could not. It
was only when she was given food that they untied her.

In a few short days, Yeva’s eyes were long swollen from crying, and she looked just like a sad frog. She
had lived for more than 20 years, but within her life, she had never suffered more than she did in the
past few days. Everyone in the Jefferson family was simply not human! She still carried Julian’s child.
How dare they treat her like that? While she thought about that, Yeva felt like crying again. She
suddenly missed her family a little. She missed her father, her mother, Leah, and… Heck, she actually
even started to miss Sage at that moment! In the past, she felt that Sage was cruel enough. As
expected, feelings would not be hurt if one did not make comparisons. At the very least, Sage did not
want to hurt her life, but the entire Jefferson family truly wanted her dead.

She sobbed…

While Yeva got emotional and wanted to cry, the sudden thud that rang in her ear made her so
frightened that she could not be bothered to cry anymore. She subconsciously moved toward the wall
by wiggling like an earthworm. Her face was filled with fear. The chains on her ankles chafed her skin
as she tugged on them, and blood flowed out, but she could not care about it anymore.



She was terrified! She was afraid that Julian would come to humiliate her while stepping on her face.
She was even more afraid that the b*tch, Queenie, would come bearing ill – will and wanted to have
the child in her belly killed.

When she read romance novels in the past, she found imprisonment plots very satisfying. The
possessive male leads were so attractive and sexy.



However, she just wanted to run away when it truly happened to her. She wanted to go home and look
for Sage!

If Sage were to appear in front of her at that moment, if Sage was willing to save her, she would be
willing to admit all of the mistakes she had made in the past and apologize to her. Yeva would have
done anything she was asked! However, of course, that was just wishful thinking. Sage hated her so
much and found her so annoying. How could she possibly come to save her? Sage certainly was
hoping for her to die at Jefferson’s Residence. Out of sight, out of mind. While she thought of it like
that, Yeva wanted to cry again… The sound of the footsteps was getting closer and closer. Yeva got
more and more nervous. She wanted to shout for help, but her mouth was completely stuffed, so she
could not make any sound. She could not escape even if she wanted to. She was so powerless, and
she was only at the mercy of others.

Bang!

The door to the attic was broken open. Yeva was so frightened that she shut her eyes and curled
herself into a ball. She subconsciously used her hand to protect her belly. She was afraid that people
would come to hurt the child in her belly.



Mister Wando was afraid that there would be danger lurking, so he led the way by walking at the
forefront. He pushed the door to the attic open. Only after he confirmed that there was no danger did
he let Sage enter.

Sage stepped inside, but when she saw the scene before her eyes, her pupils suddenly constricted,
her eyebrows furrowed, and her hands involuntarily clenched tightly.

She was speechless. ‘The Jefferson family are a bunch of inhumane animals!’ “Hunter,” she said in a
deep voice.

Hunter understood her and immediately went forward. He took out his phone, accessed the camera,
and started snapping pictures. He also could not bear to witness the scene. When Yeva, who had her
eyes tightly closed, heard the familiar voice, she was confused for a moment, as if she was
hallucinating. Then, after a while, she gradually opened her eyes and actually saw Sage. “Sage!!!”

She shouted from the bottom of her heart. Her eyes lit up, and she kept screaming as if she was a
miserable and suffering person who had seen their savior.

Sage moved her finger. Hunter then stepped forward and removed the rag stuffed inside
