The Son-In-Law Shot To Fame Chapter 238
Son-In-Law Madness
Chapter 238 Time Is Ticking Linda could not help but take a few steps back. âI-Iââ âSwitch it to Kevin instead, then!â stated Anastasia. âNo way!â Four voices sounded in unison as soon as Anastasiaâs words were spoken. Kevin was the first to speak. He sobbed, âNo way! Iâm still young. I donât want to die! I donât want the bomb!
Please, I donât want it!â Then Linda spoke. âNo! Kevin is my only son. We need him to continue our familyâs lineage! But Jennifer doesnât matter that much. Sheâs expendable.â The third one who spoke was Leonard. âNo way! Kev is my son. I donât want to attend my own sonâs funeral!â The last one to speak was Jennifer. âForget it. Let them go, Ms. Rodriguez.â Jenniferâs tears were flowing freely down her cheeks. She was really questioning what human nature meant. At present, both Leonard and Linda vividly demonstrated the dark side of human nature. She wondered why Kevin and herself received different treatment although they were both the children of Leonard and Linda. Leonard and Lindaâs mindsets had always made them value their son over their daughter. Jennifer was aware of that, but she had never spoken it out loud. After all, she was clear that despite their bias, they were still her parents who had raised her. A bitter feeling arose in her heart. To protect her family, she had completely separated herself from Donald. Is this even worth it for these people? Well, I guess it isnât.
âMs. Rodriguez, I beg you. Please let them go.â Jenniferâs eyes darkened as she fell to her knees. The time bomb continued to tick, and the displayed time showed that there was only one minute left before the explosion. Linda and the rest knelt on the ground as well. âYeah, right! Please release us now!â
However, Anastasia burst into laughter. âThis is pathetic! Look at you, Jennifer. I must say that I sympathize with you at this moment!â Jennifer remained silent as tears continued rolling silently down her cheeks. âLetâs go!â Linda glanced at the countdown timer. Pushing Kevinâs bed away, she was ready to run without another backward glance. Leonard followed her, staggering as he broke into a light sprint. Jennifer watched the three of them leave the place. They left with such resolution and without the slightest hint of hesitation. Seeing that, she closed her eyes in agony. âSo long, Ms. Wilson.â
Anastasia waved the flash drive in her hand and then lifted the submachine gun in her hand, aiming it at Linda, Leonardo, and Kevin who were about to run away. She was about to take all of them down.
Just then, a golden flash shone before their eyes. A man in a golden cloak and golden mask appeared and instantly wrapped his fingers around Anastasiaâs neck, lifting her in the air as he strangled her.
âGolden Lord!â Anastasia shrieked loudly as terror filled her eyes. With his left hand, Donald dislocated Anastasiaâs shoulders. The submachine gun in her hand instantly dropped to the ground, and the flash drive fell into his hand. Beep! Beep! Beep! It was ten seconds before the bomb exploded. âRun, Ms.
Rodriguez!â Tyler rushed forward and immediately spotted Donald. Momentarily stunned, he then yelled, âCareful!â Tyler had spent most of his time in South Aploth. Hence, he knew a thing or two about the Golden Lord being a notorious killer. Jennifer opened her eyes, and she shuddered violently. Why are those eyes so familiar? Then a name popped up in her mindâDonald! Donald turned around and approached Jennifer. He took the time bomb in his hand and pressed on the chip. âEverythingâs fine now.â Jennifer looked up. As she met the eyes of the masked man, she found herself stunned again.
Heâs Donald! Those eyes could only be Donaldâs! Besides, this man is willing to switch the bomb to himself for my sake. Who else could he be other than Donald? âY-Youââ Jennifer stuttered in agitation.
âGive me the bomb now! Itâs going to explode soon! Come on!â Beep! The countdown timer was reset to five minutes.
