Billionaire’s Mistress

Chapter 20



Oarlan’s pov

After the president left, I was surrounded by a group of people to persuade me to drink.

The mobile phone rang, and I quickly took the opportunity to escape the siege of the public on the grounds of answering the phone.

The other party’s call was a video call. As soon as I got through, I saw an ugly face on the mobile phone screen.

“Is it Mr. Edmund? Your woman is in my hands now. If you want to save her, come and save her immediately. Otherwise, it’s too late. I can’t promise what she will become.” The other side said, pointing the camera at Leanna’s face.

I was still a little drunk. When I heard what the other person said, I saw Leanna’s small face full of tears and full of fright, and suddenly woke up.

“Miss Leanna? Is that you? Where are you now?” I asked quickly.

“Want to know where we are? No problem, but don’t blame me for not warning you. If you dare to call the police, I promise her life will stay here before the police arrive.” When the other person finished speaking, he hung up without waiting for me to speak again.

Looking at the phone with the screen blacked out, I realized that the situation was serious and dared not delay any longer. I immediately dialed the president.

“President, Miss Leanna was kidnapped.”

“I know.” On the phone, his voice was eerily calm.

“I’ll go back to the club right now.” As I said this, I immediately got up and left quickly, regardless of the people’s detention.

Leanna’s pov

I lay on the ground, my hands and feet were tied with hemp rope, which made me feel painful.

In addition, since last night, I have not eaten at all, and my stomach is very hungry. My whole body is about to collapse.

“Please, let me go. He won’t come. My relationship with him is not what you think. I am not important to him.” I beg for mercy with weak breath, hoping they can let me go.

“Are you still trying to cheat us? When I just called, I saw that he was very nervous about you.”

“No… No, that’s not Mr. Edmund. You called his assistant.” I waved my hand.

“Even his assistant is so nervous about you, that’s even more illustrative.” The tattooed man reasoned with certainty.

What is the logic of “…”?

I knew they wouldn’t believe anything I said, so I shut up and saved my energy.

Time ticked away slowly.

I lay on the wet floor, weeping silently.

My body is cold and hungry, and my life and personal safety are still under great threat. I am very afraid, and I dare not continue to haress them, for fear that they will be offended, and I will be injured finally.

What should I do?

Who can save me?

A few gangsters on the side are drinking and punching. From time to time, someone looks at me. They seem to want to eat me at any time.

Later, the tattooed man made another call to Oarlan and then answered several calls.

When he called, his attitude was ferocious, but when he answered the phone, he was submissive and his attitude changed greatly.

The president sat on the sofa with a grim expression. I sat aside.

“Ringing…” The mobile phone rang, breaking the silence of the room.

I glanced at the caller ID and looked up at Edmund. “President, it’s them.”

I handed the phone to him. He directly connected the phone and slid the answer button.

The tattooed man’s face immediately appeared on the screen.

“Mr. Edmund, I finally saw you in person.” When the tattooed man saw Edmund, his face showed a disgusting smile.

“Who instructed you?” Edmund’s eyes were cold and his voice was cold.

“Well, you don’t need to worry about it. You just need to know that in City X, it’s not you who have the final say.”

“Tell me how much you want.”

“It depends on how much Miss Leanna is worth in Mr. Edmund’s eyes.” The tattooed man smiled with an especially sinister expression.

“Let me see her. I want to make sure she is safe now.” Edmund Road.

“No problem.” The tattoo man agreed, pointing his mobile phone at the weak Leanna lying on the ground, “Hey, you should see if your mistress is still alive.”

Leanna reluctantly opened her eyes and shouted hoarsely, “Mr. Edmund, help… help me…”

Before she could finish her plea for help, the tattooed man pointed his mobile phone at himself again, “Mr. Edmund, you saw, and still alive. When are you going to pay the ransom in person?”

“Address”, He said.

” I will send it to you immediately and remind you again. Don’t call the police, or you will not see your little beauty.” After saying that, the tattooed man hung up the phone again.

Put down his mobile phone, he got up and went back to his room to change clothes.

I stopped him immediately, “President, are you really going to pay the ransom in person?”

“Call Hyman.”

“What?” I was stunned for a moment, but I quickly reflected, “Do you suspect that the old boy Hyman did this?”

“Who else is there besides him?”

That’s right. After all, all the dirty means such as putting drugs in the drinks have been used. What other mean means does he dare not use?

Just, Hyman, you are trying to kill yourself! The president has been kind enough to let you go. Why do you have to hit the gun again and again?

“It’s very possible. After all, the Hill family has been the local emperor of City X for so many years, and you are going to ruin them. He must be unconvinced. Besides, he is the only person in City X who has the courage to do this.” I analyzed, “But what if the old boy pretended to be insincere and refused to admit it?”

“I remember, did Hyman have a daughter?” Edmund said coldly,

When I heard the words, my face was cold, and my heart was trembling.

It seems that Hyman died this time.

“Didi.” The voice of SMS from mobile phone.

I quickly opened it and found that it was the warehouse address sent by the tattoo man.

“President, it’s not safe for you to go alone, I will ask someone to find some local prestigious bosses to accompany you.” I really don’t trust my boss to take risks alone.

“No, just take care of Hyman.” He dropped this sentence, turned into the room and changed his clothes.

Leanna’s pov

A man with yellow hair got up, walked in front of me, kicked me on the ground, “Hey, let me ask you something.”

I opened my eyes and looked at him, full of fear.

“Do you know what Mr. Hyman has to do with Edmund?”.

“Mr. Hyman?” I tried to search the name in my mind, and soon I remembered it.

Could it be the man who gave me wine that day?

I think so. Before he went to ask Oarlan, he went to the restaurant to find Edmund and gave me a gift. He begged for mercy.

However, according to Edmund’s personality, it is estimated that he will not forgive easily.

Therefore, he retaliated with such extreme means.

Just, what does all this have to do with me? Why do you involve me?

“Speak, are you dumb?” That yellow hair stepped on the back of my hand.

“Ah…” I screamed when I was trampled on, and a burning pain spread from the back of my hand to my whole body.

“I… don’t know.” I swallowed the pain and gnashed my teeth.

“You don’t know? It seems that you have to be an innocent ghost today.” He said regretfully.

My heart was inexplicably tight, and I looked up at the yellow hair in front of me. “What do you mean? Are you going to kill me?”

“Otherwise, why do you think we want to arrest you?” He looked at me funny.

“But, aren’t you looking for money? Mr. Edmund, if you take the money…”

“Tut tut, what a stupid woman. Do you think he can walk out of this door alive?”

Hearing this, I seemed to understand something in an instant. I braced myself, “You are not for money?”

“No, money and life are important.” He finally told the truth.

By this time, I had fully understood what was going on.

It seems that catching me is just a means to blackmail Edmund. Their ultimate goal is not money, but Edmund’s life.

And I am destined to die with Edmund.

“What if Edmund doesn’t come?” I asked, can’t Edmund be killed, and killing me is meaningless? After all, with my current relationship with Edmund, he has no reason to risk his life for me.

“If he doesn’t come, you’ll be dead, because you know too much.” said, he was showing a ferocious expression to me.

“Brother, here comes Edmund.” Just after the words, a minion who was guarding the door ran over and reported directly.

“It seems that you are going to die together today.” He smiled grimly and looked up at the door.

The door opened, and a familiar and upright figure walked out of the darkness with steady steps.

It’s him. It’s really him.

He even disregarded his own safety and took risks alone.

Why?

Am I really meaningful to him?

Edmund was originally very tall. Now I lie on the ground and look up at him. I just feel that he is taller and straighter than before. His whole body radiates a frightening and compelling spirit, noble and calm.

“Don’t come, don’t come, they’re going to kill you.” I screamed suddenly to let him escape.

Since he is doomed to die here, it would be better to let him leave alive, which is also a gratitude for his presence here.

“Close the door.” The tattooed man probably worried that Edmund would escape, so he immediately told his subordinates.

Soon, the door of the warehouse was closed from inside, and there were several men standing at the door.

Edmund’s expression was not a little flustered. He walked up to me with long legs and elegant steps, and his eyes scanned me. After confirming that my body was not hurt, he slowly raised his eyes and looked at the tattooed man in front of him.

“How much did Hyman give you?” His hands were naturally held in his pants pockets, and his impeccable handsome face was gloomy and terrible.

“You know?” The tattooed man was a little surprised. It seems that he did not expect Edmund to guess who was behind his scenes.

“There are two choices for you. First, the people who take you now disappear from here. I can treat this as if it had never happened. I will not pursue it.” Edmund said.

” Mr. Edmund is really confident. You have the courage to say such things. What’s the second choice? I’d like to hear it.” The tattooed man laughed and said.

Edmund smiled and said quietly, “You killed us both, and then you, your minions and the whole Hill family buried with us together.”

I didn’t expect that he would say that. For a moment, there was an inexplicable feeling in my heart.

He knew he would die if he came here.

Then why did he come?

Is he not afraid of death?

“Mr. Edmund wants to frighten me? In City X, the person who can move me has not been born yet.” Although the tattoo man said this, his momentum was obviously weak.

“Really? Then you can try.” Edmund raised his mouth and stopped looking at him. He bent over and picked me up from the cold and wet ground.

A few of the minons wanted to do something, but the tattooed man didn’t say anything, and they didn’t dare to act. They just looked at us and looked at each other.

I leaned against him, smelling the familiar cologne fragrance from his body, and my heart that was originally tight gradually relaxed.

The taste I wanted to keep away from before has turned out to be a tranquilizer that can reassure me.

Leaning in his arms, I listened to his strong heart beating and felt his body temperature. At this moment, I felt that I had returned to the world from death.

“Why? Don’t you do it yet?” Edmund stood up straight, looked at a group of men around him with cold eyes, sneered, “Do you still need to call Hyman again?”

“Big… Big Brother, this man looks very hard to be offended. ” The yellow hair has already been shocked by Edmund’s powerful aura, and he can’t help being afraid.

The tattooed man was a little angry. He raised his hand and slapped the yellow hair on the face. “You shut up. Tiy don’t know how to find out his information. What’s the use of regretting it now?”

“I checked. Didn’t I find anything?” Yellow hair looks aggrieved.

“Fuck, it seems that this time we are trapped by Hyman. I wonder how he could spend so much money and asked us to kill these two people.” The tattooed man spat on the ground and cursed with displeasure, “Call him, hurry up.”

The tattooed man quickly took out his mobile phone and dialed Hyman.
