After a brief silence, Leroy finally steeled himself.
âAlright. Iâll do as you say.â
Sigwald smiled viciously and said, âLeroy, you better hurry up. It wonât be easy to find another good opportunity like this next time.â
âGot it.â
Once he ended the call, Sigwald put down the phone with a ruthless expression.
If Silvia had not messed with his personal gain, he would not have resorted to this to get rid of her. It was her fault for meddling too much!
At 3 p.m., Joe rushed into Silviaâs office in a panic.
âMiss Pond, thereâs a crazy person downstairs with a bomb, and he wants to see you!â
She immediately stood up. As she headed out, she asked, âWhat happened? Have you identified the person?â
âNot yet. Miss Pond, itâs dangerous for you to go down right now. Iâve called the police, so letâs wait until they arrive.â
Silvia frowned. âNo, itâll be too late by the time the police get here. Howâs the receptionist?â
âHeâs taken the receptionist hostage...â
Anger flashed in her eyes, and she reprimanded him, âWhy didnât you inform me sooner?!â
âI didnât have the chance...â
âAlright. Iâll go down and take a look. Just wait here.â
âIâll go down with you.â
She did not say anything else. They took the elevator to the first floor, and Silvia was surprised to see Dulcie.
âWhat are you doing here? Itâs dangerous! You should go upstairs!â
When Leroy spotted Silvia, he glared at her viciously and became agitated.
âYou must be Silvia Pond! If you hadnât persuaded Dulcie to ignore me, the debt collectors wouldnât have tried to break my legs! I wonât let you off the hook!â
Dulcie looked at Leroy angrily. âDad, are you crazy?! Do you realize that youâre committing a crime right now?!â
Leroy sneered and fearlessly said, âDulcie, Iâve worked hard to raise you, and all Iâm asking for is a little money. Yet, youâve turned me away. But Iâm not here to settle the score with you today. Iâm here for Silvia Pond, so go away!â
The receptionist was on the verge of fainting as Leroy was holding her hostage. Seeing how terrified she was, Silvia calmly asked, âWhat do you want?â
âWhat do I want?! I want you to die!â
Silviaâs eyes were cold. âIf itâs me youâre after, donât involve the innocent. Release the hostage, and Iâll take her place.â
She did not know that someone had recorded the incident and posted it online. The video instantly became viral.
Over in Remus Corporation, as soon as Curtis learned that Leroy had gone to MY Corporation with a bomb, he immediately informed Neil.
Neil panicked and became angry when he saw Silvia offer herself up as a hostage in the video. He quickly stood up and said, âHead to MY Corporation!â
He tried calling her, but she declined the call after a few rings. His hands trembled as he held his phone, and he quickly sent her a few messages.
[Silvia, donât volunteer as a hostage!]
[The bomb on that person is real! Youâll die!]
[Reply!]
Despite sending more than a dozen messages, Neil did not receive any reply. Meanwhile, Leroy had agreed to let Silvia replace the receptionist.
âIâm warning you. Donât pull any tricks, or else, Iâll set off the bomb!â
Silvia had dealt with bombs before, so she could tell that the one on Leroy was real. If he set it off, everyone on the first floor would die in seconds.
âDonât worry. Iâm just a woman. What tricks could I possibly pull?â
