My Dreamy Old Husband novel Chapter 595

Joel stared at the Phantom Wolf coldly. It was also his first time hearing that the Phantom Wolf was Theo’s descendant, but Joel was still as calm as ever. “Release the hostages, and I will guarantee that you’ll have a safe passage out of the country.”

Quinton tilted his head as he gazed back at Joel. A cold light emanated from his dark eyes, seeming as though he was a venomous snake. “My apologies, dear brothers; it’s a pity that we have to meet under such circumstances.” The Phantom Wolf gave a polite bow to them. “My birth father is Theo, while my biological mother is Tanya. I was initially born as Hope, but I changed my name to Quinton after my mother remarried.”

Michael pointed somewhere, and Hale brought Tanya over with a gun held to her head.

“Your mother is with me. I want to exchange her for one of the hostages.”

Quinton took a look at the woman in Hale’s hold and waved at her from a distance.

Tanya’s face was blank. One had to wonder if it was because her facial nerves had been damaged from all the excessive plastic surgery, or if she simply didn’t care. After greeting her, Quinton said to the two men, “Do as you wish with her. I have no love for her anyway.”

He was just three years old when Tanya sent him to the Phantom Wolf’s organization. At the age of 14, he crawled out of there to see her for the first time in years, but she sent him for plastic surgery because he looked too much like Theo.

It was well within Michael’s expectations that Quinton had very little connection to his biological mother. He took a few steps forward and said, “Since you don’t want your birth mother, I’ll offer myself up in exchange for two hostages. I am a celebrity, and I am known all over the world. You’ll have more sway if you have me instead, don’t you think so?”

Sophia’s heart was lurching, her tears continuing to fall as she screamed internally.

No, don’t do this! Please don’t!

She would rather stay in the Phantom Wolf’s clutches if it meant that Michael would not offer himself in exchange.

Negotiations had hit a critical turn, but both parties knew that they were just buying time; the Phantom Wolf was waiting for Linus to fix the plane, while Joel and Michael were waiting for a chance to strike.

Apart from Mark and Sophia, all the other hostages had been moved onto the plane. Most of the Phantom Wolf members had boarded the plane as well, leaving only a few people out on the airfield itself. Everyone had their eyes on the two Fletchers and the Phantom Wolf. The gunmen remained at their positions outside, but no one noticed that some strange thing had slithered in.

Michael was still negotiating with the Phantom Wolf as he said, “You took my sister in hopes of molding her into the perfect killing machine. It’s a pity that she isn’t able to match your expectations. You can take me to see for yourself.”

Mark was so frustrated that he yelled. “Don’t do anything rash, Mikey! I’ve already lived a fulfilling life at a hundred, but you still have many years ahead of you!”

Sophia wanted to call out to Michael and advise him as well, but her tongue was numb. She couldn’t make a sound.

All of a sudden, she felt something jab into her arms dangling weakly by her sides.

That jab had a massive effect on her. In just a few seconds, her body felt as though a fire had just blazed through it; Sophia’s mind soon let her know about her control over her limbs. She wiggled them discreetly, and a sense of joy surged up in her.

She could move again!
