However, the assistant was confounded by her lack of resistance.
She had already seen Larry's face from inside of the ward.
The woman merely chose not to react to his presence.
Nevertheless, she was thankful that Larry did not choose to disrupt her.
“Who instructed you?" Larry walked over to her side and demanded in a cold, hard tone.
“I'm not going to tell you that? the woman answered bluntly.
She was afraid of divulging Lisa's name to someone else, as the latter had threatened to harm her mother if anyone should know about the matter.
She closed her eyes and waited for Larry's backlash.
It was as if she knew that any attempt to salvage herself would be in vain.
The woman knew she was being foolish.
Why am I being so loyal toward a woman who is not even related to me? "Don't worry.
I will ensure your mother's safety if you tell me who has instructed you to harm Jessica.
On top of that, I will ensure that your mother receives the best treatment from the very best doctors" The woman was taken aback by his offer.
She had not expected that things would take such a turn.
{t seems like he really cares about his godsister! She snorted in derision.
"You guys had better give it up.
I will not tell you guys that easily.
Besides, you'd better release me soon.
The police will not let you guys off easy if anything should happen to me!" The woman shouted as she struggled to free herself.
Really? I will not let your wish come true though.
Larry snickered with the thought in mind.
“Take her away! And take her mother along too!” Larry ordered.
