His Real Wedded Bride novel Chapter 1126

The press conference was to begin in five minutes. At the press, Charles would show the evidence that those nude pictures of Sheryl were processed to prove that she didn't have an affair. So Isla reminded Sheryl that it might be a trap and the person who was calling might have ill intentions.

But Sheryl paid no attention to Isla's cautionary reminder because she was focused on the call.

"Hello, Ms. Xia," a strange male voice crackled over the phone.

Since his voice was intentionally processed, Sheryl was unable to recognize who was on the other end.

"Who are you? Where are my children?" Sheryl asked anxiously.

"Ms. Xia, I want to make a bet with you. What do you say?" the man proposed arrogantly. Since he had leverage in his hand, the man had no reservations.

"Okay. What do you want to bet?" Sheryl agreed immediately, aware that she had no say in this matter since the man had her children.

"Haha, Ms. Xia, you are a decisive person. I bet that you will admit that you are the woman in the nude pictures at the press conference. Otherwise..." And there, Duncan stopped. After a brief pause, he let out an unscrupulous laugh before saying, "Otherwise, I am sure you know the consequences."

"What exactly do you want?" Sheryl asked in a fluster. The more composed the caller was, the more apprehensive she got.

"You know what I want, don't you? You are so lucky to have two lovely children. They are so cute. What a pity! Do you think whom I should kill first, the boy or the girl?" Duncan threatened blatantly.

"Don't, please don't hurt them. I will do as you say. Please, just let my kids go. They're only three years old," Sheryl pleaded shakily, tears rushing down her cheeks. She had no idea when Clark and Shirley had been kidnapped.

Neither did she expect to get a threatening call before the press conference.

'Now that she knows I have her children, she will do exactly what I ask her, ' Duncan thought to himself, a malicious smile forming on his lips.

Then he ended the call.

Since the man hadn't mentioned whether he would lay a hand on the kids, Sheryl had no other choice but to do what he had asked her of.

"What's going on, Sher?" Isla asked worriedly, gazing at a panic-stricken Sheryl. She hadn't heard what the man had said to Sheryl, but judging by her friend's expression, Isla knew she was in big trouble.

"Has the press started? Did Charles show the proof?" Sheryl asked, her voice quivering as she grabbed Isla's arms, ignoring her friend's question.

Isla glanced at her wristwatch and replied, "The press has already started. Charles has the evidence."

Releasing Isla from her tight grip, Sheryl dashed towards the live press conference.

'The evidence can't be shown. The kidnapper must be watching the live press conference. Once the proof is shown, my kids will be in grave danger!' she screamed inwardly.
