Chapter 1587 Nicole Sounds Different
As Skyler was the crucial link to their safety, Evan instructed Juan to escort Skyler personally.
“Be careful.”
“Got it, Daddy.”
After Juan left, Evan looked at Nicole who was still held hostage. He said, “I’ve already instructed for your son to be brought here. Can you please loosen my wife’s hands first?”
Steven hesitated.
“Steven, just release Nicole. She won’t be able to come over to us. There are so many of you there and she is just a weak woman.”
“That’s right. Her hands must be numb after being restrained for so long. Since we didn’t abuse your son, you shouldn’t do this to Mrs. Seet either.”
“That’s right!”
Steven was silent as his gaze fell on Nicole who looked as listless as a wilted flower with her head hung low.
Even if I were to release a woman as weak as she is, she wouldn’t be able to do anything!
“Alright, release her so that she can be a little more comfortable before she dies. There, I’ve done my good deed for the day!”
“Mr. Maupay, there must be something fishy since they are so insistent that you release her. You’d better watch out!” Riley reminded him as he watched Nicole carefully.
Steven chuckled, “What problem do you think she can cause? She has been shut in our secret chamber for so many days and she has only been able to come up with useless and childish ways of escape! Only Evan would want an idiot like her! If anything, she is just a useless piece of trash to me!”
Nicole suddenly turned and stared at him. Looking extremely emotional, she began making muffled sounds.
“What is she saying?” Steven asked as he saw her intense reaction.
“I couldn’t hear her.”
Steven gave his bodyguard a knowing look and he immediately removed the gag from Nicole’s mouth.
After that, she gasped for breath before screaming at Steven, “Who are you to call a piece of trash? Say that again and I’ll fight you!”
“Fight me?”
Steven chuckled as if he had just heard the world’s biggest joke. “Alright, I’d like to see a woman like you fight me. Remember, you are the one who is at the brink of death.” With that, he immediately instructed, “Release her!”
“Yes, Mr. Maupay.”
The bodyguard began to loosen Nicole’s ropes. It was tied so tightly that it took him some time before he could release her.
After that, Nicole loosened her wrists. Indeed, her wrists were numb after being tied up for so long.
As she moved her wrists, she glanced at Evan casually.
Evan shook his head slightly. With a knowing look in her eyes, she continued to feign weakness and moaned, “Oh no, this hurts!”
“I really don’t understand what Evan sees in such a useless woman like you.”
“He likes my fair skin and beauty, together with my fertility and femininity.”
That should work right?
She did not know what Evan saw in Nicole either but those words might just work.
Steven glanced at Nicole disdainfully and said, “Evan really has the worst taste in women!”
Evan had no reaction while Davin and Kyle and the bodyguards looked at each other confusedly.
Mrs. Seet’s voice…
Davin asked Evan quietly, “Why does Nicole sound different?”
“Shut up!” Evan growled softly.
Davin frowned. Is Evan hiding something?
Seeing that even Davin got rebuked, no one else dared to ask anything more.
“Mr. Seet, Mr. Juan is back with Skyler!”
Then, they saw Juan bring Skyler in as hostage as they walked into Imperial Garden.
“We can do our exchange now, right?” Steven looked at Skyler and said.
Juan ignored him and brought Skyler to Evan.
