Female Novel
Chapter 1409
"Maja, you're coming with me to see Judith. You owe her a personal apology, and then, if you're lucky, I
might let you off easy."
Maja nearly laughed, but the grip on her throat tightened instantly.
"Judith's been assaulted, and you find this funny? You really are heartless," he spat.
She met his gaze with icy detachment, her lips twitching into a half-smirk.
"Mr. Sanders, I pity your sister. It's a blessing she never made it back to the Sanders clan. If she had to
witness your cruel farce, it would've turned her stomach."
Dylan's hand trembled, a sting in his chest at her words.
But he reassured himself—it was all Maja's silver tongue, her lack of remorse for Judith that was to
blame.
"We'll see if you're still this sharp-tongued later."
He released her and sat down in silence, done with the exchange.
Maja couldn't be bothered to engage further; every word with him was more draining than the last.
The car soon stopped at Judith's residence. Bodyguards escorted Maja out, while Dylan strode ahead
to check on his sister.
Judith was expecting them. She sat on the floor, knees hugged to her chest, eyes swollen, hair a
disheveled mess—she looked deranged.
Dylan hastened to her side.novelbin
"Judith!"
She looked up, tears streaming anew.
"Dylan, I'm so scared. I close my eyes, and I see those men. Dad won't even see me. What should I
do? I just want to go home, to be spoiled by our family like before..."
Judith trembled as Maja was led in—excitement, not fear.
Her cheeks flushed with the thought of seeing Maja taken care of swiftly, her fantasy of Maja's downfall
playing out before her eyes. Dylan never disappointed her.
But Dylan mistook her trembling for fear, pulling her into his arms.
"Don't be afraid, Judith. I brought Maja here for you. Just tell me what you want, and I'll do it."
Judith sobbed into his chest, gasping for air.
"I want her gone! Dylan, please. Only you can help me now. My heart aches."
She clutched at her chest, flailing.
"Get away! Don't do this to me!"
A picture of madness, tugging at Dylan's heartstrings.
Dylan's hesitation vanished.
"Alright, I understand."
His eyes turned cold, resolve setting in.
"Take her to the backyard and drop her in the river."
The backyard met with deep river waters, rumored to be a watery grave from which no one returned.
To ensure Maja had no chance of survival, her hands and feet were bound, and she was locked in an
iron cage.
Judith, supported by Dylan, watched Maja's caged form with glee in her eyes.
Maja's own gaze was serene as she glanced at Dylan before looking away, her expression untroubled.
Dylan stiffened, a sudden unease in his chest, unable to pinpoint the feeling.
