With a plan in mind, Raegan provoked Tessa.

"You're pathetic, Tessa.

With billions of people in the world, you have no one to love and no one loves you."

Tessa clenched her jaw and stared daggers at Raegan.

"It's all because of you guys that I ended up like this! If it hadn't been for you all, I'd still be a decent lady in a wealthy family!"

Even at this moment, Tessa showed no remorse and still blamed others for her downfall.

"Tessa, nobody forced or harmed you. You chose to victimize others for your selfish gains. Now, you're facing the consequences of your actions," Raegan pointed out. Her words just hit the nail on the head.

Tessa never expected Raegan to lecture her at this time.

“Shut the fuck up, you wretch!"

In a fit of anger, Tessa swung the knife toward Raegan.

Raegan rolled away and dodged the blade. She used the momentum to shift her bound hands to the front.

As Tessa swung the knife once more, Raegan saw her chance and thrust her hands forward.

The knife sliced through the ropes binding her hands. But at the same time, it also nicked her forearm.

Blood spurted from the cut.

Despite the pain, Raegan lunged to wrestle the knife away from Tessa's grip.

Having endured long-term abuse, Tessa was weak and no match for Raegan in terms of fighting.

Tessa's original plan was to torture Mitchel upon his arrival, wear him down, and then finish Raegan off right in front of him. After that, she would finish Mitchel as well.

However, Tessa hadn't anticipated Raegan's audacious counterattack!

Tessa's only advantage was the knife in her hand. In a frenzy, she swung it repeatedly, trying to cut Raegan's face.

Overwhelmed by the onslaught, Raegan retreated and bade for the time.
