After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire novel Chapter 736

Chapter 736 A Threat

Susan kept on snarling in desperation. She just couldn't figure out a reasonable explanation accounting for his sudden change, feeling it hard to believe that Henry turned into a beast just because she lost her feelings for him.

She could hardly remember why she fell in love with him back then. But on second thought, it suddenly occurred to her that her first crush in youth was aiming at Manuel. Even she failed to recall the details to explain how she then developed a passionate relationship with Henry.

She glared at him with her eyes burning in rage, feeling like tearing him apart.

But Henry simply replied with a cold glance, "Susan, from the very beginning when I chose to get close to you, it has all been part of my plan."

"What did you say?" Susan was stunned, goggling.

"You are a well-bred lady while I was born as an orphan. Do you believe that it was destiny that bound us together?" Henry sneered as if he were telling a ridiculous story.

"Henry, tell me, what on earth do you want?"

"Let me be honest. I took you away from Manuel. I know how you feel about him-it must be a kind of feeling lurching between love and hatred. I know you used to love him. However, there is a concern that he's your stepbrother, and you find it hard to admit it. That's why I seized the chance to sneak in by misleading you into the thought that you had the right to love someone else and forget about Manuel."

"Henry, who are you?" Susan gritted to ask.

It seemed what he said exactly accorded with what happened at that time. Back in the old days, she did have a crush on Manuel. That was why she kissed Manuel. However, she failed to convince herself to believe that she fell in love with her stepbrother, whom she used to consider an invader of her original family. That was why she didn't hesitate to turn down Manuel's love confession at that time. She just wanted to prove that she didn't love him.

However, there was one thing making her confused-how did Henry manage to know about all these? Especially about her true feelings for Manuel?

"Who am I? I bet you don't know even if I tell you. But I am sure your dad will recognize me." Henry put on a horrible sneer.

"Henry Parker!" Susan screamed.

"Okay. Let's just make a call to your dad." Henry suddenly took out a phone.

It was her phone.

Startled, Susan glared at him.

"In case of any nonsense coming out of your mouth, I gotta apologize for what I am doing." Henry then took out a piece of cloth as a gag.

"Open your mouth." He approached.

"Listen, I don't wanna hurt you."

But Susan simply replied with a glare. Sulking, Henry pinched her jaw and stuffed the gag into her mouth before she could make a few more screams. Susan could do nothing but glare at him with bloodshot eyes. But Henry didn't seem to care. He picked up her phone and started to swipe on it.

"You've made the call?" he sneered.

He saw the record to call Manuel. And Henry did not ask for her answer.

"Susan, you know what? If you had still reserved even a bit of feeling for me, I wouldn't have done this to you." Henry then made a call.

Susan felt like risking her own life to kill him if she could. It was late into the night. But Susan had no idea about the time as all windows were shut. Soon, the line was connected.

"Susan?" Edward's voice sounded a bit drowsy.

"Mr Phillips, it's me." Said Henry.

"Henry? Why are you calling so late? Are you staying with Susan?" Edward sounded confused.
