Crying, Helen said, “Please… Please don’t hurt my daughter. I’ll do anything you ask… I’ll do anything… Just let her go… How much money do you want? We… We’ll pay you. One million? Two million?”
The man sneered, “Who the f*ck do you think you’re talking to? Do you think that I care about a few million? Let me put this straight, I don’t want money! If you want your daughter to stay alive, tell Matthew that he is not allowed to represent Eastcliff to cure anyone tonight!”
Helen was dumbfounded. “What?”
What kind of a request is that? I thought they kidnapped Demi for ransom. Turns out that they’re doing this to attack Matthew.
Meanwhile, Sasha was in panic. “Who are you people? Why are you doing this? Why are you targeting Matthew? Are you one of Travis’ men?”
The man coldly replied, “Stop with the nonsense or else your sister dies! Listen carefully. If any representative of Eastcliff dares to cure a single person tonight, your sister will be ripped to shreds by these three wolfhounds! All of you will be dog meat too! One more thing, you are not allowed to call cops. If you do, she dies.”
With that, the man directly hung up the phone. Helen was so horrified that she fainted but not before she let out a scream, and James tried to help her recover. After some time, Helen woke up and grabbed Sasha’s arm while saying in a trembling voice, “Sasha, you have to save your sister… Only you can save her now… Please save her…”
Sasha looked troubled. She knew now that the man on the phone was definitely one of Travis’ men who was commanded to purposely target Matthew.
In short, Travis was no longer sure that he would win so he wanted to use despicable methods to force Matthew to lose the competition. Deep down inside, Sasha was at a loss. How am I supposed to choose
between my sister and my husband?
After a moment of silence, Sasha muttered, “Mom, don’t panic. We should think of other ways. Why don’t we call the cops?”
Hearing this, James immediately yelled, “Didn’t you hear the man say that we’re not allowed to call the cops?! They may be keeping an eye on us right now. If we call the cops, they’ll find out. When that happens, they will kill Demi!”
Sasha mumbled in reply, “Then… What should we do?”
In a serious tone, James replied, “Didn’t he say that he would let Demi go as long as the representatives of Eastcliff don’t save anyone tonight? All you have to do is call Matthew and tell him not to let any of them representatives join the competition tonight.”
Sasha’s eyes widened in shock. “Dad, how could I do that? If I do that, Matthew will definitely lose.”
Furious, James yelled, “Why are you still hesitating at a time like this? Is Matthew’s competition more important than your sister’s life? He’ll just lose a competition, but your sister might lose her life. Is there even a need to think about it?”
Sasha anxiously replied, “Matthew spent tens of billions to join the competition. He’ll be dead if he loses!” novelbin
James and Helen couldn’t help but feel embarrassed. Then, Helen lowered her voice and said, “Sasha, we weren’t thinking.
As you said, those people voluntarily invested in him and whether they get returns or not is at their own risk, so everything will be fine even if Matthew loses. However, if you don’t call Matthew, your sister will lose her life. Hurry up and call him!”
Sasha frowned hard because she really wasn’t willing to do so. After all, Matthew could use this chance to change his life around. He has suffered so much and put in everything he had just to win the competition. As his wife, how could I ask him to give it all up at a time like this?
