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.
Despite having her hands freed, her injured forearm hampered her movements significantly.
Tessa stood up and laughed maniacally. Her face was contorted and ugly.
“You bitch! I planned to torture you slowly before I claimed your life. But since you’re so eager to fight with me, I’ll let you meet your demise now!”
With that, Tessa swung the knife and charged.
Raegan avoided a direct confrontation and merely dodged Tessa’s attacks.
Now that Raegan was no longer under Tessa’s control, Tessa couldn’t use her as leverage against Mitchel. Raegan hoped that once Mitchel arrived, they could overpower Tessa together.

However, Raegan had underestimated the extent of Tessa’s insanity.
Tessa pulled out a handful of white pills from her pocket and swallowed them in one go.
These were pills that the fisherman used as stimulants. They were made from a unique fish oil formula. After consuming two, that fisherman would become exceptionally strong and overpower Tessa.
Sometime later, Tessa ground several pills into powder and mixed them into the fisherman’s water, which led to the latter’s demise.
Taking a few pills was not dangerous. In fact, she would become remarkably strong.
With renewed strength, Tessa lunged at Raegan and cursed, “Go to hell, you bitch!”
Before Raegan knew it, Raegan was pinned to the ground by Tessa.
