Chapter 1473 Meeting Joseph Again
The only way they had now was to negotiate with the kidnappers.
Eugene remained calm even though he was suppressing his anger. He spoke politely to the people on the tower.
"Get the person in charge to come out. We can talk."
As soon as his words fell, a man appeared on the tower. He was not tall and had triangular eyes that gave people a creepy feeling even when he smiled.
"I didn't expect you to come so soon, Olivia. You weren't expecting us to meet again so soon, right?"
"Joseph Lee?"
When Olivia saw the man's face, she felt her breath hitch. It was like all her strength had been instantly drained.
Although they had suspected throughout their journey here that Double Dragon Court was behind this, there was always a glimmer of hope in their hearts before they saw for themselves.
But now...
They were truly filled with fear.
Joseph was a lunatic. His methods were always cruel and vicious, and he had countless ways to torture people. Those who had offended him would either die or be left crippled.
At that moment, Olivia couldn't even imagine what kind of state her four children would be in his hands.
He laughed. "Yes, it has been a long time, Olivia."
Suppressing her panic and pretending as if nothing was wrong, she asked, "Hello, Mr. Joseph. Are my sons with you?"
With a mocking smile, Joseph replied, "Yes, they are. Your sons are adorable, so I invited them over. I hope you don't mind."
Eugene remained calm, but his voice sounded intimidating. "You didn't just take Olivia's sons, but mine. Is this how Double Dragon Court invites guests? By kidnapping them?"
Upon hearing that, Joseph burst into laughter. "There's no other way to bring you here!"
Eugene exuded a chilling aura as he spoke in an icy tone. "Promise Island and Double Dragon Court have always minded their own business. Are you declaring war on us?"
Joseph retorted, "Isn't it Promise Island who started this war?"
Narrowing his eyes, Eugene said, "I didn't know that I offended Double Dragon Court."
Joseph's face darkened. "Double Dragon Court has lost seven generals in a row. Do you dare say you have nothing to do with those?"
Eugene replied, "Blood Rose has repeatedly targeted my wife and even killed my son's bone marrow donor. I thought I'd given both the leaders of Double Dragon plenty of respect by only handing him to the police."
Then, Joseph's face turned grimmer. "You handed them over to the police without even notifying us. How is that respecting us? Nolan, now your son is in my hands. Let Olivia come alone, and we'll negotiate!"
"That's impossible." Eugene suppressed his anger. "You better release them. Otherwise, I won't mind destroying you."
Joseph smirked. "Who are you to negotiate with me? Do you think I won't kill one of them to tame my anger?"
"Why, you!" Eugene gritted his teeth in anger.
Joseph laughed arrogantly. "Men, bring those brats up here. I'm going to let our guests see them!"
Soon after that, North, Carter, Blake, and Terry were brought up to the tower.
Eugene tensed his jaw while clenching his hands into fists. His hatred for Joseph was so intense that he wished he could kill him.
Meanwhile, Olivia was frightened, and her heart felt like it was about to jump out of her throat. She felt dizzy and almost fell. Fortunately, Eugene caught her before she did.
"Don't worry, Olivia. Think about our unborn child. They must have taken the children to negotiate with us. Trust me, I will rescue our children."
Olivia tried her best to control her emotions and breathe steadily, but her eyes were fixed on the children standing on the tower. It was a terrifying scene to look at as each of them had a gun pointed at their heads.
However, they didn't cry or make a fuss. Although the children were looking at them with longing in their eyes and trembling with fear, they still pretended to look calm.
Blake was in a worse condition than his siblings. He hadn't taken his medication for a long time, and his face had turned pale. Even his lips were not their normal color.
