Divorced and Pregnant My New Life with a Billionaire Drives My Ex Crazy novel Chapter 423

“You guys are just his lapdogs,” Sophie snapped, her eyes cold. “Seriously? You think you can turn Conrad against me? That you matter enough to cause any real trouble?” She scoffed. “Don’t flatter yourselves.”

“If you want someone to blame, blame Wiona. If she hadn’t been hiding out, if she’d just come out like a normal person, I wouldn’t have had to go this far. You picked the wrong side and now you’re paying for it. Imagine being loyal to someone like that.” She shook her head, almost pitying them. “If you have any sense left, you’ll drag her out now. Do that and maybe I’ll let you have the antidote.”

She didn’t wait for them to answer. Some guys yanked Nikolai’s and Drake’s mouths open, shoving pills down their throats. Before the poison could really kick in, Sophie grabbed a megaphone and shouted so everyone around could hear.

“Wiona! Bring me Annette, right now! If you don’t, your people are going to pay the price. You’re not the only one with leverage here. Your loyal men are about to suffer for your choices. If you’re really that heartless, then sure, ignore them. Let them die.”

Her voice echoed in the tense air. “Go on, listen to their screams.”

Nikolai and Drake collapsed, writhing in agony, screams ripping from their throats. The sound was sharp and raw, the kind that made your skin crawl, spreading through half the Simpson estate. Even people out in the front courtyard could hear it.

Inside the banquet hall, the silence shattered. Guests stared at each other, wide-eyed, fear flickering on every face. What on earth was happening in the Simpson house?

Giana’s face drained of color. What had those idiots done at the warehouse?

Conrad’s jaw tightened. “Take her!”
