Chapter 991
The Ex-Husband's Revenge
Not only did George help Leon when he was in danger, he deeply injured Harold and Harold resented George and the Collins for interfering.
âAlright. Calm down! We still have Albert as our hostage and since we havenât lost anything so far, whatâs the point of being so frustrated over it? Youâre going to get a heart attack if you continue to rile yourself up like that,â Daisy consoled him.
Though Harold was injured by George, Harold also managed to hurt Leon, so the situation for both sides were even. The only shame was that they wasted a great opportunity of eliminating Leon.
âThatâs true. As long as we hold Albert hostage, we will have plenty of chances to deal with Leon.
Missing one chance doesnât mean anything!â Haroldâs expression eased.
Albert became the key element in his plan of eliminating Leon. As long as Leon and Iris wanted to rescue Albert, there were plenty of chances for Harold to set up traps for him.
Leon was lucky to escape once, but he would eventually be caught.
Just then, they both heard footsteps approaching and Royce hurried into anxiously.
âRoyce, whatâs wrong? As the leader of the family, you canât act so hysterical!â Daisy said with scowl.
âMom, bad news! Leon took Grandpa away,â He said gloomily.
He regained consciousness shortly after Leon took Albert away with him. Sensing the severity of the situation, he immediately hurried to Daisy to inform her about it.
âWhat?!â
âHe rescued Albert?!â
Both Daisy and Harold were startled into jumping on their feet. Neither of them expected Leon to turn back around and rescue Albert without alerting anyone.
Though surprised, they soon realized that there was more to the story.
âRoyce, Leon doesnât know where we keep Albert, so how did he manage to find Albert to begin with?â
Daisy questioned.
âWell,â Royce muttered sheepishly.
âWhatâs going on? Spit it out!â Sensing his hesitation, she glared at him.
âWell, Leon barged in and captured me, before threatening me to take him to Grandpa,â He explained while shivering.
âWhat? So you did this!â
Daisy was furious and finally understood how Leon managed to rescue Albert.
âItâs not my fault, Mom! He threatened me into doing so. He wouldâve killed me if I didnât take him to Grandpa,â he muttered fearfully.
âDamn him! He pretended to run away and snuck back in to cause trouble! How sly! Weâve underestimated him!â
Both Daisy and Harold were furious as they were just planning to use Albert against Leon. Not only did Leon escape them, he managed to take Albert away with him.
