Chapter 342 The Setup Finished Morgan sneered .
If you dont say anything , who will know it was us ? Well just find a scapegoat to take the fall .
Sasha pondered for a moment , then nodded .
Thats true .
The Bossman is only marrying that woman because shes pregnant .
If something were to happen to the baby , maybe he wouldnt value her so much anymore .
Liliah hesitated , glancing at Morgan and Sasha before whispering , Are we really doing this ? Morgan smacked the back of her head .
If you dont , then youre no longer one of mine .
Liliah winced , rubbing her head .
She had no choice but to nod .
Alright … On the way to find Merry , Summer dialed her number .
The phone rang several times before Merry finally answered .
Summer asked , Merry , where are you ? Summer , I … Im in the storage room behind the villa .
Merry answered softly .
Hearing that , Summer asked further .
Why are you there ? I thought you were supposed to be the event staff ? Merry stammered over the phone .
Summer understood immediately .
The Harper familys maids were likely trying to curry favor with Morgan by bullying Merry .
She instructed .
Forget it .
Stop working and come home with me .
Merry looked around the cluttered storage room .
Metal racks filled with various items towered over her , making the space feel chaotic and overwhelming .
The butler said I cant leave until I clean this place .
Summers voice was firm .
You were hired as event staff , not a janitor .
This is not even in your job scope .
Just ignore them .
Merry hesitated , but Summer was right .
All this suffering for just 137 dollars ? Even beasts of burden had limits .

Determined , Merry started descending the ladder step by step .
Suddenly , the screws on the ladder seemed to loosen .
It wobbled dangerously , and before she could react , her foot slipped .
With a loud thud .
Merry crashed to the ground , a sharn cry of nain escaping her lins .
1/3 Chapter 47 The Setup Finished Hearing the impact through the phone .
Summers grip tightened Merry What happened ? Merry lay sprawled on the cold floor , trembling .
She tried to move , but pain shot through her body Summer Im okay .
The ladder just gave way I wasnt careful and fell Stay where you are Im coming Summer stopped a maid with a ponytail .
Wheres the storage The maid pointed in the direction .
Then , Summer ordered the maid to send some help to the storage room before rushing off The villas storage room was quite a distance from the banquet hall , Summer would need to walk down a narrow path to teach there .
The dim streetlights flickered , and the trees rustled eerily in the wind .
Compared to the brightly lit banquet hall , the contrast was stark .
One world was filled with laughter and warmth , the other was shrouded in darkness .
As she neared the storage room , she noticed its doors were wide open .
Just as she was about to step inside , she hesitated .
She pressed herself against the nearby wall .
waiting a moment .
Just in case anything happens .
She pulled out her phone to text Fraser But when she glanced at her screen , her heart sank .
There was no signal .
Her unease deepened .
Why did Merry conveniently have an accident in the storage room ? Why did my phone lese service the moment I arrived ! Her instincts screamed at her .
She decided to return to the Banquet hall find Fraser , and then come back with help .
But just as she turned to leave , a territed scream echoed from within the storage room .
Summer clenched her teeth .
There was no time to hesitate .
She spun around and rushed inside .
Merry ! What happened Seeing Summers silhouette in the doorway , Merry let out a shaky breath of tehet .
The highes suddenly went out .
And I swear I saw a ghost in the window just now .
It scared me half to death ? Summer switched on her phones flashlight and swept it around the dark , cluttered room until the beam landed on Merry , who was still on the floor We need to get out of here .
Can you walk ? Summer askest Merry gritted her teeth and tried to stand , but her ankle gave way beneath her .
Chapter 342 The Setup groaned ominously before slamming shut with a deafening clang .
Finished Merrys eyes widened in terror .
Whats happening ?! Is someone there ? Help ! Were locked in ! She fumbled for her phone , but just like Summers , it had lost all signal .
Summer guided her to sit against the wall before striding to the door and pounding against it .
Deep in thoughts .
Her expression darkened .
Someone wanted me here .
They planned this .
Merrys face paled as realization dawned on her .
Guilt flooded her eyes .

I dragged you into this …
