My Wife Is So Sweet (Natalia Dawson) novel Chapter 607

Chapter 607 Take It All

Diego panted with excitement.

He glanced back at the group standing outside the door and said to Laura in an undertone, "You'll keep your promise, right? Don't you dare trick me!"

Laura gave a cold laugh and said, "Why would I trick you? You know where I live. I can't escape from you anyway."

As expected, Diego was convinced as soon as she said that.

He pondered, "This makes sense. Legally, I'm her stepfather. She ought to provide for me.

"If she refuses, I can sue her for abandonment."

Diego had been manipulating Laura and her mother for many years. He had grown used to their obedience.

Therefore, he wasn't on high alert for them.

Even so, just to be safe, he decided to seize more leverage.

"How about this? You tell me where your mother is. After I verify everything, I'll let you go immediately."

Laura's face instantly turned cold.

"Diego, this is between us. Leave my mother out of this!"

Diego sneered.

"Leave her out of this? Like that's possible! She's your mother and my wife. Whatever concerns you and me also concern her. Plus, I know you're no longer that little girl you were. Don't you try to fool me.

"Didn't you just hook up with a rich man? You're much more cunning now. If you refuse to give me money after I set you free, I can't really do anything to hurt you, can I? Or your sugar daddy will go after me.

"But that's not the case with your mother. We're a lawful married couple. Though it may not be proper to scold or hit her, I can make love to her, can't I? But if something went wrong with her newly planted heart during our lovemaking process and gave her a poor recovery, I wouldn't be the one to blame, because it's not something that I can control.

"In that case, the court wouldn't hold me liable, would it? Thus, you'd better tell me her whereabouts. This way, I'll be relieved, and so will you. Then, we can finally make a deal. You'll give me the money at the same time when I give you freedom. Isn't that perfect?"

Laura quivered with fury.

She knew Diego was brazen, but she didn't expect him to be this shameless.

Gritting her teeth and staring coldly at him, she bellowed word by word, "You wish!"

Seeing her attitude, Diego's face turned icy cold in an instant.

"That's to say, you were trying to trick me, am I right? Because this is a trap, you still can't risk telling me where your mother is. Laura Davies, do you really think I'm an idiot?"

As he said this, he abruptly reached out and clamped a hand over Laura's chin.

Laura felt that the bones in her chin were about to be crushed. Her head was jerked upward by Diego's hand.

At this precise moment, someone asked from outside, "Hey, did she cough up the information?"

Diego looked over his shoulder at that group. Before he could say anything, Laura clenched her teeth and said under her breath, "It's in my apartment."

Diego was taken aback and turned his head back to look at Laura.

"What did you say?"

"I mean, the check is in my place. I certainly wouldn't carry a big fat check around. If you want it, take me home to get it."

Diego shuddered in exultation.

He let go of Laura's chin, look back, and shouted, "Almost."
