Chapter 861
âSince you donât wanna know- Edmund let go of Larissa, straightened up, and took care of his clothes.
âThen Iâll answer the call outside.â
Larissa
was afraid that he would see the desperate need in her eyes, so she forcibly looked away from Edmund. âDo whatever you want.â
she said indifferently.
âTsk.â Edmund confidently left the room,
After that, one of the black-suited men entered the room and stared emotionlessly at Larissa. He warned her. âDonât even think of
escaping!â
Although the guy locked dangerous and fierce, he did not have the same sort of oppressive feel that Edmund had.
Larissa raised her bound legs and asked. âTell me how the hell Iâm supposed to escape?â
The man huffed and looked away. He ignored her after that.
Larissa talked to him though. âHow much is Edmund paying you for this? give you double-for both you and your friends.â Could you please let me go?â
The man glared at her and shouted. âShut up!â
Larissa ignored that though. âI mean â She continued to persuade the man. âIâm richer than Edmund.
Besides, even if you take me away successfully, my family wonât spare you guys.
âYou probably donât know that my dad has eyes and power everywhere in Westonia. And Kevan-Iâm sure you guys know just how
powerful he is. Itâs only a matter of time before they find out who you are. I donât know If you have families-even if you donât, you should have parents, right?
âKevanâs always cold and cruel when dealing with his enemies. If he finds out about you guys, do you think you and your families will have
good endings?â
The calm that the man had began to c rack,
Larissa continued trying her best. âI promise you, if you let me and my friend go. I will give you more than just double the money. I wonât hold any of you responsible for everything today!â
The man hesitated and askedâ¦. Really?â
âReally!â Larissa nodded hard. âIf youâre worried, I can have it all in writing.â
The man thought about it and said. âOkay! I will go and discuss it with my bros later, But â
Seeing his hesitation, Larissaâs heart sank, She asked. âBut what?â
âBut I canât let you go here,â the man said. âRogers ordered that the people with your friend will only be called away after you and him have reached the airport. The people there arenât with us. Theyâre Rogersâ people. Itâs not easy to bribe them.â
âThen I go with you to the airport Larissa was not as scared as she was before now that she had successfully turned Edmundâs guys against him. She could definitely escape now. It was not a problem if she was further delayed.
After nearly ten minutes, Edmund came back. He was finished with his phone call and he looked super smug.
âKevan said he was willing to trade the whole of Microworks for you! Tsk. Isk, 1sk. How deeply in love he is!â
Larissa did not expect Kevan to say such a thing. Her first reaction was to wonder what sort of trap Kevan had for Edmund. She tried everything she could to guess so that she would not ruin Kevanâs plan.
âWhy arenât you talking? Edmund got close to her again. Although he was smiling, his eyes were freezing. âWhat, touched by Kevanâs act?â
âBased on your understanding of Kevan, do you think heâll be so st upid as to give up Microworks for some woman?â Larissa lau
coldly.
âBased on what I know, the kidnappers who kidnapped his daughter then still canât get the ransom money from him even till now. Oh! Yeah, and if what I found out isnât wrong, isnât Kevanâs daughter still lost right now? He doesnât even want to save his own daughter, why
âForget the fact that he doesnât love me, but even if he did-how can that measure up to his fortune of billions? I think youâd better try to
figure out if Kevan has laid out a trap for you. He might be just wailing for you to lal init
