Such a Rude and Noisy Woman

Chapter 155 Whom To Choose

Hiram raised his hand slowly with a cold stare at Zachary. If looks could kill, Zachary would have been

long dead.

"Wait, okay, let my sister go!" Hiram spoke clearly.

Zachary threw back his head to laugh loudly, and then he pushed Lydia off the stage. He shouted

disdainfully, "Yes, I always knew that you people were unsympathetic. You only have one sister, but

your wife, hmm, I guess it won't take you any effort to find a new one, right?"

Joanna and Chad rushed to the stage to catch Lydia as she fell.

Rachel was completely blank as she stood on the stage with her hands tied. She closed her eyes.

Tears began falling from her eyes and running down her cheeks.

Did she feel surprised? No. But she had expected the other choice.

"What will you do to Rachel? Hiram, Rachel is the only daughter Fannie and Simpson have. If

something happens to her, Fannie would go with her! Do something, please!" Joanna said to Hiram

worriedly. She felt relieved that her daughter was safe, but she also prayed that Rachel would be safe,

too.

"Chad, send my mother and sister home right away!" Hiram told Chad without looking at Joanna and

Lydia.

Chad nodded to him and said, "Okay. Be careful, Hiram!"

Joanna wanted to stay and be helpful, but Chad came over and whispered something in her ear. She

nodded and glanced at Rachel nervously before leaving with Lydia.

Chad walked them to the car and asked the driver to bring them home. Then he took out his phone and

called Kun Rong. "Where are you and your team?" Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

"We've blocked all the exits here, and our men are watching. I promise we'll get them when they show

up, " Kun answered confidently. Kun Rong was the chief of the Public Security Department of H City.

He had rushed here with all the policemen available the moment he had heard the news.

"Copy that, don't move. Wait for my signal. They have Rachel in their hands, " said Chad.

He hung up his phone and called Daniel. "Daniel, listen, come to the theater as soon as possible. It's

urgent. We need your thermal infrared scanning to locate the position of the kidnappers."

"Hold on, hold on. What's happening?" Daniel, who was still at the office, had no idea what was going

on.

"It's a long story. Men with guns are holding Rachel hostage at the theater. Hurry up. Get your ass

here!" Chad explained briskly.

But he didn't get a reply from Daniel, because Daniel had already hung up.

Daniel jumped up from his seat and dashed out of his office with his computer and his equipment.

In the theater, After Joanna and Lydia left with Chad, Hiram stood alone in front of the stage. He

watched the men quietly.

The truth was, Zachary didn't plan to do anything to Hiram. He didn't want to take any risks.

Over the past few years, Zachary had been watching Hiram. He had plotted a few times to hurt Hiram,

but it never worked. Hiram was much tougher than his father, so Zachary didn't want to risk trying to

hurt him.

Besides, he had Rachel in his hands. Taking two women with them was quite a challenge, but they

could easily leave here with one hostage.

Hiram had seen through him, and knew what Zachary was planning in his mind.

"You're right about me. If Rachel dies, I could find a new wife easily whenever I want. There are plenty

of women waiting in line to marry me, don't you know?" said Hiram in no hurry. But he didn't dare to

look at Rachel's face. He didn't know what he would do if he saw her tears and the disappointment on

her face.

"Listen, if you want to take her life, go ahead. What are you waiting for?"

Hiram spoke the words one by one coldly.

Zachary walked to Rachel and pointed his gun at her head. He began to laugh ghastly and said,

"You're really something, son! Let's make a deal, okay?

Get your people to prepare ten million bucks of cash for me. I know the banks aren't open at this time,

but I believe you have the ability to make it work. This money is nothing in your eyes, I know. Later..."

Zachary paused and poked Rachel's face with his gun. "Of course, my guys and I want to stay alive to

spend the money you give us. I know your people must have surrounded this place from outside. We

couldn't leave this place alive even if we had wings.

So here's the deal. We will leave here with your wife. I promise, we'll let her go once we're safe.

I am not Jay, and I'm not as stupid as him to walk out and wait for you to take my life. So how about my

offer? Your wife will be safe as long as we're safe, think about it."

Hiram closed his eyes slightly and he said coldly, "Let you go? I believe you'll kill her once you're far

away from us and take all my money with you.

I'm not letting you go. Even if you kill my wife, I'll take all of your lives for her!"

"YOU! You son of a bitch!" Hiram was driving Zachary crazy. If he had the choice, Zachary would rather

shoot Hiram in the face than talk to him, but he knew how the situation would be if he did that. Hiram

was the only one who could decide whether they left there with the money or waited there to be killed

by the police.

"You have my word now, and I never break my word, I swear! I promise I won't kill your wife. She'll be

safe with me. Listen, you get thirty minutes. All we want is money, so go and get it ready. We also need

a car to get out of this city.

Don't play tricks with me. Remember, your wife is in my hand, and there are more than one gun pointed

at her. I'll let her go once we leave H City safe and sound."

Rachel didn't open her eyes the whole time. She didn't want to see anyone. She didn't want to see

what Hiram or the other men looked like.

She said to herself in her mind that if she got a second chance, she wouldn't choose to be with Hiram

again.

Even if she had to spend her whole life alone, she would never marry him.

The feeling of being abandoned by someone she loved was so hurtful, and she felt more hopeless than

if she was falling down a cliff or into a frozen lake.

Hiram called Chad in front of Zachary and said, "Chad, listen to me. Go and bring me 10 million bucks.

I give you twenty minutes."

He asked Chad to do what he asked without so much as a glance at Rachel.

The clock was ticking.

Not long after Hiram made the phone call...

Chad ran into the theater hurriedly with a suitcase. He went directly to the stage, placed it in front of

them, and opened it to show what was inside.

It was difficult to prepare so much cash in just twenty minutes, but luckily, Hiram always kept cash in a

safe at his place for emergencies.

"Good job. Now order your people to stay away from the path and prepare a car for us. Don't forget to

make the road clear. I don't want to see any obstructions on my way out, "

Zachary shouted at Hiram, and then he gestured to one of his men. They placed something around

Rachel's waist.

"Open your eyes wide, son. See what we've put on her. Don't plot anything, otherwise I can assure you

that she'll lose her life even if I don't have my gun with me!"

Rachel gasped deeply with her eyes closed. She didn't dare to look at what was on her waist.

She knew that it was a bomb even though she had never seen one in her life.

It was obvious that Zachary was far trickier than Jay. He was well prepared to deal with Hiram.

"Okay, I promise.

But mark my words too. You'd better do as we agreed. If you don't, I'll take all your lives and make sure

your families will pay the price for you too. You'd better believe me. I'm quite confident in my ability."

Hiram's voice boomed in the theater like a great ball. He then nodded to Chad to do as Zachary asked.

"You have my word! I said I wouldn't take her life, and I'll keep my word. I have earned my reputation

with my life, " Zachary said as he bent over to check Rachel, who hadn't said a word since they took

her.

Zachary had been prepared to risk his life here, but since Gavin wasn't here, he had changed his mind.

He had to stay alive to deal with Gavin.

"Hey, honey, I know you're disappointed. But you shouldn't blame it on me. You shouldn't marry into

such a family, you know. All of them are loveless to their women. Tell me, do you regret marrying him?"

Rachel closed her eyes tightly and didn't make a sound. She was afraid she wouldn't be able to control

her emotions if she opened her eyes and saw the people she didn't want to see.

A few minutes later, Chad walked inside hastily with sweat trickling down his face. He spoke loudly,

"Everything's ready. The car is stopped right at the gate."

Zachary dragged Rachel with him and shouted at his men, "Let's move!

Listen, son, keep your hands in your pockets. Otherwise, your wife and I will die together!"

Zachary pointed his cocked gun at Rachel's head to force her to walk.

He dragged Rachel towards the exit with him.
