Leroy sneered. âWho knows? Raise your hands and get over here!â
Silvia raised her hands and approached Leroy slowly. Everyone held their breath for fear that he might suddenly set off the bomb.
After she took a few steps, Dulcie suddenly stopped her.
âSilvia, donât go!â
She looked at Leroy with anger and hatred. âDad, what the hell do you want?! You wonât be satisfied until you ruin my life?!â
Leroy glanced at her coldly. âIf she hadnât influenced you, you wouldnât have refused to give me money. Itâs her fault that Iâm pushed into a corner!
Once sheâs dead, youâll be obedient again!â
âAre you insane?! Fine. Since youâre so determined to die, Iâll die with you! That way, everything will be over!â
Dulcie then quickly walked toward Leroy.
With the receptionist still as his hostage, Leroy moved backward in a panic.
âDonât come any closer! Otherwise, Iâll set off the bomb!â
At this point, he still believed that the bomb was fake.
Seeing how agitated he was, Silvia quickly stopped Dulcie.
âDulcie, heâs really worked up right now. Donât provoke him. Since heâs here to see me, Iâll talk to him. Once Iâve replaced the receptionist as the hostage, you guys head upstairs right away. Evacuate everyone from the second to fifth floors to the sixth floor or above. Itâd be even better if you could all leave the company.â
Dulcie shook her head. Her eyes turned red as she said, âNo, Silvia. Let me be the hostage.â
Silvia frowned and replied, âHe wonât agree since heâs here for me. I have a feeling that someone else might be behind this.â
Dulcie was in disbelief. âWhat do you mean?â
Just as Silvia was about to explain, Leroy interjected impatiently, âWhat are you two talking about over there?! Youâre not scheming against me, are you?! Silvia Pond, you have one minute! If you donât come here, Iâll set off the bomb, and everyone will die!â
âDulcie, thereâs no time for explanations. Donât worry. Iâll be fine. Remember what I just told you.â
With that, Silvia walked toward Leroy.
Dulcie saw the madness in Leroyâs eyes, and he felt like a complete stranger to her. He used to bring her gifts and speak to her with kindness. He changed after the Reed Family went bankrupt.
He had become a lunatic who only focused on personal gains.
Once Silvia was in front of Leroy, she calmly asked, âCan you let her go?â
Leroy released the receptionist and glared at Silvia. âTurn your back to me!â
He got angry when she did not move. âHurry up! Donât pull any tricks, or else, Iâll kill you!â
She finally turned around as he instructed, and he immediately wrapped his arm around her neck.
Dulcie quickly moved forward to support the receptionist, who had gone weak in the knees. Noticing that they were about to leave, Leroy angrily shouted, âDonât move! I never said that you could all leave!â
Silvia frowned and said, âYou brought the bomb here to find me, didnât you? The others are innocent. Let them leave.â
Leroyâs voice was full of rage. âYouâre in no place to tell me what to do! If you hadnât interfered, Dulcie would have given me all her money!â
âSo, what are you actually trying to do here?â
âI...â
He was momentarily stunned. His original plan was to intimidate Silvia and get Dulcie to transfer all her money to him. However, Silvia seemed unfazed so far.
With that in mind, he viciously asked, âArenât you afraid of dying?!â
Silvia remained calm. âI am afraid, but does that make a difference? You have all the control now. Even so, I still want you to think this through. Is it truly worth risking your life here?â
Anger filled his eyes, and he suddenly became more upset. âWhat does it have to do with you?! Even if I die, Iâll bring you down with me!â
After that, he abruptly activated the bomb.
