Chapter 99 You Want to Kidnap Me?
“And her body just can’t take it anymore.
Susan’s chest fightened when she heard that
The doctor continued, “There’s a Dr. Rianne–you know her, don’t you?”
Susan stared at the specialist, stunned. “What do you mean?”
“She’s done extensive research in this field. Even though she’s young, she’s helped a lot of patients recover over the years. If you can get her on board, there might be a sliver of hope to save Ms. Lillian’s uterus.”
Susan felt like her mind had exploded. Rianne, Eddie.
In the end, it all came back to those two.
“They’re really the only ones? None of you can take their place?”
The more she said it, the more her head throbbed with anger.
Both Eddie and Rianne were tied to Stella; and thinking about Stella’s attitude in all of this-
The doctor fell silent. Some kinds of talent just couldn’t be replaced with hard work.
Seeing the doctor’s silence made Susan even more furious. “Get out. Now. Worthless.”
Her fury boiled over, and she snapped without holding back. The doctor’s face fell, and he turned and walked out without another word.
But really, it wasn’t the doctor’s fault–Lillian simply had too many illnesses, and none of them were the kind you could afford to ignore.
When Ethan and Jonathan arrived, they saw Susan’s pale, drawn face.
“Mom, what happened to you?”
Susan, lost in her thoughts, snapped back to the present.
She looked at Jonathan and Ethan. “Is there anything–any way at all–we can use to force Stella?”
Ethan and Jonathan both fell silent. What could we use to pressure Stella? It seemed like nothing would work.
Money, power–none of it had any effect on her a
anymore.
Jonathan said. “There’s really nothing we can use to force her.”
“Then just kidnap her!”
The moment she heard there was no way, Susan erupted, blurting it out in frustration.
Stella turned a corner and had just stepped out when she heard Susan say that. Kidnap me?
Her eyes turned cold in an instant.
They hadn’t noticed her yet and kept going.
“We’re out of options,” Susan said, “no matter what, we need to get Rianne and Eddie back. If she won’t listen when we’re being nice, then she leaves us no choice.”
Stella stepped around the corner. “So, Madam Susan, if I don’t cooperate even when you threaten me… gonna kill me?”
what’s next? You
Their hearts instantly shot up into their throats.
Stella strolled over to them casually, with Abel following a few steps behind.
Abel didn’t look pleased either. The information in the files had been one thing, but seeing it all unfold in person–it was something else entirely.
He hadn’t expected they’d go this far against their own flesh and blood.
Stella stopped in front of Susan. “So, you were really planning to kidnap me? All for Lillian?”
Susan’s nerves were stretched to the breaking point.
She hadn’t expected Stella to hear them. How had the timing been that perfect?
She took a deep breath. “Get… get Rianne and Eddie back.”
“And if I don’t? What then–you gonna kill me?”
Yeah–Stella had heard everything just now. They were actually plotting to kidnap her just to force her into contacting Rianne and Eddie.
So what did blood ties even mean? Looking at the casual way Stella stood there, Susan suddenly found herself unable to say a single word.
Jonathan saw Stella staring Susan down, her presence overpowering
Angrily, he stepped forward and shoved Stella hard. “That’s enough! Is that how you talk to your elders?”
The second Stella was pushed, Abel reached out and caught her–and the next instant, his foot slammed into Jonathan’s stomach.
A burst of searing pain exploded through Jonathan’s abdomen.
He doubled over, face going white. “You”
Susan rushed to support him, seeing him get hit, her face twisted with panic.
Moments ago, she’d been stunned by Stella’s words; now she was completely unraveling. “What are you doing?”
Ethan turned toward Abel, his eyes filled with danger. Another man? Who the heck is this now?
Sensing the sharp aura rolling off the man, Ethan narrowed his eyes, filled with menace. “Stella, come here.”
men around her?
At that moment, his mood was in absolute chaos. Why did she have so many m
In just a few days, she’d already had three different men by her side.
