Chapter 239: JUST LEAVE HER THERE

Hailee stared coldly as Aileen's body fell from the stairs, rolling until it reached the floor below.

Aileen's muffled scream echoed through the emergency exit and was the only sound that could be heard in that place. Meanwhile Hailee was silent, unmoved, doing nothing, as if she was watching a crime scene in a cheap drama.

After Aileen's body hit the wall and finally stopped, a pained groan left her lips along with a few suppressed sobs.

Only then did Hailee move, slowly descending the stairs. Her sharp eyes only focused on Aileen who was curled up into a fetal position in pain, but there was no sympathy to be seen there, only a strange emotion that was hard to decipher.

On the other hand, when she saw Hailee approaching her, Aileen laughed softly, as if she had won this round. "You see? I will blame you for this. You think you can win over me at something sneaky like this? You have to learn more." Aileen winced in pain, but she was satisfied with what she was doing.

Because after this, she could pretend that she miscarried right? You could say that George's idea of ??telling her to fall down from the stairs as a scene where she could pretend to have a miscarriage wasn't bad at all. This time Aileen could trap Hailee too. So one could say she got a double advantage.

"Learn a lot more?" Hailee snorted and looked at Aileen with disdain. "I thought you were smart, it turns out that your abilities only manage to pull such trick..." A scornful tone could be heard clearly from the way Hailee said those words.

"Oh, you think you can get away with this?" asked Aileen defiantly, she was ready to contact George and carry out their plan.

"Of course." Hailee folded her arms arrogantly. "You think a little thing like this can affect me? You can fall from the twentieth floor of this building and I won't be affected in the slightest."

Aileen gritted her teeth, because of the pain she had to endure and also because of her annoyance at Hailee. This wasn't the kind of reaction she wanted.

"You're going to be in big trouble because of this Hailee." Aileen growled.

"Trouble? You think by dropping yourself off the stairs, you can give me trouble?" Hailee burst out laughing when she heard that, as if Aileen had just told the funniest joke she had ever heard. "You think too highly of yourself Aileen. Be smarter. Maybe you could fool me in this ridiculous way back then, but now, this kind of cheap trick won't affect me at all."

And when Hailee finished saying that, Pyro appeared in the door upstairs, looking panicked and tense, but his facial expression immediately turned a little calm when he realized that Hailee was fine. This lady surely knew how to give someone a heart attack.

Without waiting long, Pyro immediately approached Hailee and in the next second he was beside her, pulling her slightly back from Aileen and placing himself between the two, as if an injured Aileen could harm Hailee.

"Are you all right Mrs. Tordoff?" he asked, his sharp eyes scrutinizing Hailee briefly, looking for signs of injury or anything, because Ramon would be very furious if his wife suffered even a blister.

"I'm fine," Hailee said calming the bodyguard. "Can you do something for me?" she asked.

"Of course Mrs. Tordoff, what is it?" Pyro asked, ready to take any orders from Hailee.

This was very random, but, it made Hailee feel happy every time someone called her Mrs. Tordoff. It might sound cliche and too cheesy, but that's how she felt.

"Go to the monitoring room and retrieve the CCTV footage of this emergency staircase from half an hour ago." Hailee's words made Aileen widen her eyes in surprise.

No. Hailee couldn't do that. She didn't have the authority to do that here.

And as if Hailee could read what Aileen was thinking, she added slowly, "If they don't give access, say I asked for it."

"Okay," Pyro answered swiftly. However, he did not leave Hailee, but instead contacted another bodyguard to carry out the task.

Pyro could, of course, read the current situation where the tension between these two women was so intense. And so, it was absolutely impossible for him to leave Hailee here.

After saying that, then Hailee's eyes turned to Aileen who was still on the ground, unable to move even an inch.

"As you said, with just one word, I will be able to delete the CCTV footage of this place. But, alas, I will not delete it. I'll keep it, just think of it as a souvenir for my visit here." Hailee chuckled. "Thank you for inspiring me."

"Hailee!" Aileen exclaimed furiously seeing how Hailee treated her. She tried to stand up, but at that moment a muffled scream could be heard from her lips as the intense pain engulfed her.

It seemed like her leg was broken.

On the other hand, Pyro immediately stood in front of Hailee like a shield, just in case this woman was going to do something to her.

"Why? Feeling pain?" Hailee asked innocently. "Oh, it must really hurt, right? After all, you fell down from the stairs."

"I will make you pay for this!!!" Aileen shouted angrily and her voice echoed within the emergency exit.

"Why are you mad at me? I'm not the one who pushed you down. I didn't even tell you to throw yourself down. You did it voluntarily. So, don't be mad at me, but be angry at your own stupidity," Hailee said in a mocking tone and this made her adopted sister even more angry.

Only, Hailee didn't have time to entertain her, as she said before, she had to be home before Ramon.

"Let's go," Hailee said, completely ignoring Aileen's cursing words.

"You're going to leave her here?" Pyro asked curiously.

Hailee then glanced at Aileen over her shoulder and shrugged nonchalantly. "Just leave her there."
