Chapter 500 Hurt the People Closest to Her
Derek said proudly, “I forgot to tell you that your meddlesome assistant is now in our hands.”
Hearing his words, Charlotte stopped walking completely. Beside her, Joe and Mandy both looked at her strangely.
Charlotte didn’t have time to explain to them and asked Derek sternly, “My assistant? How could he be in your
hands?”
Seeing that Charlotte was still unwilling to admit it, Derek simply sent her a video.
In the video, Sharon was half-kneeling on the ground with his hands tied behind his back, and his face was covered
with
bruises. Realizing that someone was taking photos of him, he slowly raised his head and looked at him coldly. “Are
you
courting death?”
The video was quickly cut off, but it made Charlotte’s heart jump.
She had wondered if Sharon was in trouble, but she didn’t expect him to be in such a miserable situation.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCharlotte took a deep breath. “What do you want?”
Derek pretended to be serious and said, “I didn’t expect that you would care so much about an assistant. No
wonder he
was willing to risk his life to investigate us for you…”
Hearing his words, her heart sank.
She had never told anyone that Sharon was secretly investigating Brian and Derek. How could Derek know so
much?
“Don’t talk nonsense. Just tell me what you want.” Charlotte interrupted him impatiently. “Our time is very precious.
There
is no need to waste it on such a meaningless thing.”
At this point, Derek no longer hid anything. He chuckled and said, “I remember that your assistant has been by your
side
for many years. I wonder if he’s worth 500 million dollars.”
Enter title…
Charlotte sneered. “It seems that Brian doesn’t treat you well either. He actually let you fall to the point of making
money
by kidnapping.”
“There’s another condition. You must send the money over personally,” Derek added.
“That’s impossible.” Charlotte immediately refused. “Why do you think I would put myself in danger for an
assistant?”
Derek smiled sarcastically and said, “It doesn’t matter. You can think about it. It’s just that one more day means
one less
part for him. It’s no big deal.”
Without waiting for her reply, Derek hung up the phone.
Charlotte pursed her lips tightly and saved the recording. She looked up at Mandy and Joe and told them the
contents of
the phone call.
“No,” Joe said firmly. “They’re obviously coming for you. I’ll get someone to save your assistant immediately. You’d
better
leave now.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCharlotte also knew that Derek and the others were targeting her, but what made her uneasy was that Brian and
Derek
had been pretending to be obedient in front of Old Mr. Clinton. Why did they suddenly expose themselves and hurt
Sharon?
She had a hunch that the reason for this change was the most important thing.
Before she could make a decision, Derek sent two more videos.
In the first video, Sharon was half kneeling on the ground when a masked man suddenly appeared and stabbed him
in the
arm. Dark red blood suddenly gushed out and dyed his clothes red.
In the second video, Brian walked into Clinton House with no expression on his face. He quietly passed by the
corridor on
the second floor and his eyes fell on the door of the study room of Old Mr. Clinton.
Charlotte’s face completely darkened. “I will not leave.”
