Chapter 2186

Bonnie’s heart leaped into her throat at the sound of this.

She was more than familiar with this voice.

During the past year that she had spent with Jim, Harvey had clung to her as well, and therefore, his
best friend, June, also spent almost all hours of her day with Bonnie. There was no way Bonnie could
not recognize June’s voice!

“Help me-” “Help me, please!”

June’s screams grew even louder and shriller than the last. Bonnie could feel all the nerves in her body
tighten, and she could not help quickening her pace as she strode in the direction of the voice.

All of a sudden, Jim furrowed his brows and squeezed her hand.

“Don’t act on impulse.” He took a step forward to shield Bonnie’s body behind his, then continued to
make their way toward the direction of the voice.

Soon, they arrived at a dungeon, and the door leading to it was left ajar.

The closer they got, the louder they could hear June’s cries for help. Jim slowed down and, still holding
Bonnie’s hand in his, slowly inched toward the noise.

Peering through the open door, he could see that there were two women, who were wearing face
masks and appeared to be servants, inside the room, cutting through the flesh of June’s arms with
scissors!



June’s arms were stained red with blood, and she was shouting for help with all her might, so much so
that her voice had gone hoarse.

Bonnie felt her heart sink at this sight. June was only six years old! How could they do this to a child? It
was already cruel enough to force June, who treasured her long, beautiful hair more than anything, to
shave her head, but they had sorely underestimated these people.

There was no limit to what they would not do! Bonnie was so furious that she wanted nothing more
than to storm into the room and fight these women!

“Don’t act rashly,” Jim reminded her, his eyes narrowed as though he could feel Bonnie’s rage.

“We’re still very far away from them, and if you go in now, they might take her as a hostage against us.

“If that happens, not only will we fail to save her, but we might even put her in more danger.”

Then, he squeezed Bonnie’s in reassurance. “Listen to me, and don’t do anything that’ll give us away.”

Bonnie was pained by this. She knew that Jim was right and that now was not the time to act, but she
still could not help feeling pained as she listened to June’s cries of agony. Jim understood how she was
feeling, but he was more fixated on finding a way to save June at this moment. If he let his sympathy
take over, it would only lead to more suffering for June.

Jim clutched Bonnie’s hand tight in his, and Bonnie squeezed his hand in return.

After a long time, and June had lost her voice entirely, the two servants finally tired out.

One of them put down her scissors and leaned against a nearby cushion to rest, while the other got up
to pour them some tea. A glimmer flashed through Jim’s eyes.



This was the perfect opportunity! He gestured at the guards waiting patiently behind him, and the group
of men immediately rushed into the room. Some of them restrained the woman on the cushion, while
the rest went for the woman who had gotten up.

After the two servants were tied up, Bonnie stormed into the room, sobbing, and pulled June into an
embrace.

“I’m sorry, June. It’s all my fault! I arrived too late!” June’s entire body was covered in bright red blood,
and her head was clean-shaven.

She lifted her pale, almost colorless face to stare at Bonnie, and tears slid down her cheeks.
