COMMENT Chapter 100 Jason pursed his thin lips tightly. His gaze shifted between Sophia and Ada, as if he was pondering whom to save Luna wanted to rush over, but she was stopped by the people in black shirts on both sides.
In her anxiety, she suddenly turned around and looked at Jason, who was beside her. Seeing that he was hesitating, she could not help but exclaim, âJason, are you going to abandon your wife to save your mistress?â
Jason clenched his fists hanging by his side. After a moment of silence, he said coldly to Lucas, âTill give you another 40 million dollars.
Release both of them.â
Upon hearing this, Lucas laughed out loud again âIt turns out that these two women are equally important to him, he thought. Thatâs just perfect. Iâll release one of them today and keep the other to ensure my safety. Once I safely leave Cester City, Iâll figure out how to deal with the other one.â
âStop bargaining,â he said. âTonly want 60 million dollars. Choose one of them. As for the other one, transfer another 40 million dollars after ! leave Cester City, Iâll then consider whether or not to release her!
After Ada, whose hands were tied, heard the latter part of Lucasâs remark, a trace of hatred flashed across her eyes.
She thought, âThis scumbag. He has clearly agreed to get rid of Sophia after things are settled, but heâs greedy and wants to extort another sum of money. Damn it. But now isnât the time to dwell on this. Iâve got to think of a way to make Jason save me. This way, I can stay alive and completely estrange him from Sophia.
âJason, donât worry about me,â she said. âSave Sophis first. Miss Baker was right just now Sophia is your lawful wife, while Iâm just an unpresentable mistress. Iâm not worth you saving me i sacrificed myself to save you five years ago. Itâs Godâs mercy now that I can carry your child. I donât dare to ask for more. Sophia is your wife itâs only right that you save her.â
She intentionally or unintentionally mentioned that Jason was beholden to her after she saved him five years ago. She also brought up the illegitimate child in her womb. It was nothing more than an attempt to arouse Jasonâs pity.
Luna cursed fiercely, saying, âDamn angelic bitch! She wanted to blurt out to Jason that it was Sophia who saved him five years ago and that Sophia was carrying his child as well.
But when her gaze met Sophiaâs downcast eyes, she restrained her impulse just in time.
She thought, âThis man is only worthy of being kept in the dark and fooled by the angelic bitch. As for the truth, Iâll wait for the right moment in the future to reveal it, aiming to deal him a significant blow.â
âWhy are you hesitating?â she said. âThe mistress has a good understanding of what is right and just. You should fulfill her sincerity. Jason, Sophia has been married to you for four years. You canât abandon her.â
Jason frowned, a hint of struggle flashing across his eyes.
On his way here, he had already guessed that Lucas would not release two people at the same time because he still needed bargaining chips to leave Cester City.
He could only save one person in todayâs trip unless he took drastic measures and opened fire on Lucas.
But bullets could unintentionally harm inocent people. He could not guarantee the safety of the hostages during a shootout The most prudent approach was to save one person today, then let Lucas take the other one to leave Cester City and wait for Lucas to call back to make another deal in the future.
Chapter 100 He had plenty of money. It wouldnât hurt to offer several tens of m and Ada were unharmed.
56%
millions of dollars more. The only requirement was to ensure that Sophia Ada had saved his life. He was beholden to her. Now that she was pregnant with his child, he could not abandon her.
As for Sophia, even if he was unwilling to face it, he could not change the fact that he had already cared about her. Even more so, there was no way he would abandon her.
Weighing the options of saving Sophia or Ada, he found himself unable to make a decision momentarily Seeing that he was silent, Luna grabbed his wrist and said sternly, âYou should know my identity, right? If you dare to abandon Sophia, Iâll get him to put you in deep shit.â
This âhimâ clearly referred to West.
Jason glanced at Luna coldly, abruptly shook off her hand, and said, âYou donât have the ability to influence his decisions.â
He thought, âItâs not that I look down on her. West has been influential in the underworld for many years, and he handles things with great authority and fierceness. Thereâs no way he would be easily controlled by a woman.
Luna was furious, but when she thought of Westâs coldness, she could not help but feel sad She thought, âJasonâs words make sense. The naive youth from eight years ago is already dead. Instead, the person who is alive now is someone who terrifies both the criminal underworld and the lawâabiding society. He no longer has any admiration for me, only a sense of taking something from me. So, after getting what he wanted from me, he was able to decisively dump me without the slightest hesitation.
âEnough,â Lucas said, interjecting to stop their bickering. âHurry up and make a decision. I donât have the patience to chat with you here.â
Luna and Jason fell silent.
As Ada glanced sideways at Sophia, who lowered her head slightly and considered herself morally superior, a trace of mockery flashed across her eyes.
She thought, âThis bitch disdains using selfâinjury tricks. Then, sheâll just have to obediently accept death.â
âJason, I donât want to make things difficult for you,â she said. âAfter I die, you must make sure to collect my corpse.
Itâs too cold here.â
With that said, she suddenly turned around and forcefully slammed against the wall behind her.
With a muffled thud, blood splattered everywhere.
