Sasha was so furious that her body was shaking and she was close to having a breakdown because of her parents’ threats. Just then, James walked toward the window sill. Seeing that Sasha still wasn’t saying anything, he gritted his teeth and punched the window. The window instantly shattered to pieces and blood dripped from his hand.
“Dad!” Sasha screamed in horror as she hurriedly ran over.
Seeing this, James immediately put one foot out of the window and roared, “Don’t come any closer! Stay where you are! Just stay there! Don’t come close!”
Helen yelled, “Darling, have you lost your mind? Get down from there! We need to stop the bleeding...”
James roared at her angrily, “Why should I stop the bleeding? Just let me die so I don’t have to attend my daughter’s funeral!”
Sasha was extremely anxious. “Dad, don’t say that. Get down from there. Please get down from there!”
James shouted in reply, “I’m not coming down! Sasha, if you don’t save your sister, I’ll jump right in front of you! I’ll count to three. If you don’t make the call, I’ll jump. Even though I raised you up, I don’t expect you to repay mel. However, after I die, please bury me next to your sister. I didn’t take good care of her when I’m alive but after I die, I promise I’ll take good care of her…” As James spoke, he started to wipe away his tears. Sasha was about to lose her mind. After giving it some thought, she gritted her teeth and said, “Fine, I’ll make the call! I’ll do what you ask. I’ll call Matthew after you get down from there!”
James and Helen immediately glanced at each other and there was triumph in their gaze.
“Call him now! I’ll come down after you finish the call!” James yelled loudly.
Sasha was infuriated but there was nothing else she could do. Having no other choice, she pulled out her phone and dialed Matthew’s number, then told him everything that happened. After Sasha hung up the phone, she directly fell to the ground as if her soul had left her body.
“How was it? Did he agree to help?” Helen asked anxiously.
Sasha weakly replied, “He agreed…”
After hearing this, Helen was overjoyed. “Really? That’s great! Your sister will be saved! Hurry and call that man and tell him to free Demi!”
James jumped down from the window sill and hurriedly pulled out the phone. Then, he called the man.
After hearing the news, the man sneered, “Good, you’ve done a great job! However, we’ll keep the hostage here and only free her after the conference ends!”
Helen hurriedly said, “Can you please at least let them out of the cage? Please get the dogs away from them...” The man sneered, “Don’t tell me what to do! Remember, if Matthew cures anyone, your daughter will be fed to the dogs immediately!”
Helen quickly muttered, “I-I understand. H-He’ll definitely stay put and do nothing…”
The man laughed delightedly. “That’s the right thing to do!”
At that moment, Sasha suddenly said, “I’ve already done what you asked. However, can you answer a question?”
The man was momentarily startled before he replied, “What is it?”
In a solemn tone, Sasha asked, “How did you capture my sister?”
The man instantly burst into laughter. “Capture? There was no need for us to capture her. Sasha, your sister came to us on her own and surrendered herself to us. To be frank, we almost forgot that you had a sister. However, she and her husband came over to look for Young Master Hughes saying that they wanted to give him an explanation. Sasha, I’ve worked for Young Master Hughes for many years but I’ve never met someone as stupid as her. There aren’t many people who would voluntarily court death! Hahaha…”
After Sasha hung up the phone, she turned to look at Helen who flushed red and mumbled, “Wh-Why did she do such a silly thing?”
