Chapter 739 Striving for Rescue

Upon hearing that, Manuel couldn't help clenching his phone tighter.

A trace of blood thirst flashed across his eyes. He used to believe that Henry wouldn't try any dangerous attempts on Susan as he still reserved feelings for her. After all, it was exactly because of Susan that Henry dropped his plan to kill him today. However, Henry's sudden change had gone beyond his expectation.

If he had noticed that a bit earlier, he would have realized all those calls from Susan were actually a signal of calling for help.

What if he had picked up the phone? Perhaps she wouldn't have been kidnapped.

His countenance was getting darker.

Edward continued agitatedly, "Now Henry asked me to transfer the shares to Susan. After that, he wants me to commit suicide."

"Are you at home?" Manuel tried to compose himself.

"Yes."

"I'll be right there."

"OK." Edward hurried to remind him, "Don't call the police! Otherwise, Henry would threaten to kill Susan."

"Get it."

Now that Henry had been pushed to the edge, he would possibly resort to the worst means. Manuel then hurried to get up from the bed and put on his clothes. Now he didn't even seem to feel the pain in his back.

He drove himself to the Phillips Manor, where Edward was expecting him in agitation.

It was about dawn time.

Seeing Manuel coming over, Edward felt like coming across a life-saving straw to clutch at. He hurried over, "Manuel, what should we do? I am afraid Henry will try something evil on her."

"Just tell me about Henry's request." Manuel seemed more self-possessed than Edward.

After taking a deep breath, Edward composed himself to continue, "From the very beginning, Henry approached Susan only to revenge his parents. I pushed them into suicide. It was nothing but a commercial competition. Yes, I gotta admit that I was playing dirty at that time. And I am fully responsible for that. Now Henry is back for revenge. He just called to tell me that I should transfer all the shares to Susan, and he would claim the right to operate. After I finish all these, I need to kill myself."

Upon hearing his quick statement, Manuel hadn't made any immediate remark.

"I don't care about my own life. After all, I am ageing enough to face death. But I can't get her killed…That's my only last wish." Said Edward seriously.

Meanwhile, his eyes were filled with tears.

"Just start your action as he required. I will go to rescue her." Said Manuel.

"Can you?" Edward found it quite incredible.

What was more, there was a bigger concern-what if Henry noticed his attempt and decided to kill her?

"You will make a call to him and tell him that you will do as exactly he expected. However, you need to insist on talking to Susan because now we gotta make sure she's still fine and alive."

Startled, Edward couldn't even utter a word. According to Manuel, he couldn't help worrying if Susan had been killed.

"We need him to be aware of one thing, we will decline his request if he dares to try any dangerous attempt on Susan."
