She was determined to humiliate and torture him as much as possible to make up for all the humiliation she had to endure today . Rhonda exhaled in relief as well . She'd been genuinely afraid that Flint would let Ashton leave with her . But just before things could get ugly , a crisp voice rang out from outside the estate .

" I've come for Ashton , Mr. Vance . Kindly release him . " " Who is it ? " Flint snarled , his gaze darkening . Few people in Javonbury would dare ask him to release someone .
