"Do you want to go up?" Anna Ainsworth looked nervously at Jeremy Thompson, who had grabbed a soft ladder.
"I'll go up and take a look, it's okay, don't worry." Jeremy Thompson reached out and stroked her head.
How could she not worry? The man upstairs clearly had a gun, and Emma Osborne might lose control after losing her as a hostage. What if...
She really wanted to tell Jeremy Thompson not to go up, but when the words reached her throat, she couldn't say them because Connor Osborne was still upstairs and hadn't come down.
If something really happened to Connor Osborne, then there would be no need for her and Jeremy Thompson to get married, and Old Master Osborne and Lannie Ward would certainly not let her off the hook.
