The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 2501

At Jacob’s order, the two men beside him came up to grab me. I hurriedly stopped them. “Wait. Why do you want to kidnap me, Chairman March?”

The corners of his mouth curved as he laughed. “That old man stole so many of my businesses. Shouldn’t I bring you with me to get back at him?”

“Bring me with you to get back at him?” I lowered my head and laughed lightly. “What role do I have to play? You think too highly of me. I recently just refused their offer to bring me back into the family. Don’t you think bringing me there this time will only agitate them even more?”

Hearing this, Jacob looked me over, surprise filling his face. “You refused to go back to the Yards? This is something new. News of the Yards in search of their granddaughter has spread over the years. So many people have brought their own children to the family to look for that old man just because they wanted to make a fortune. Yet, you actually rejected him. How refreshing.”

He was smiling when he spoke. It was obvious he did not believe what I said.

“You don’t have to believe me, Chairman March. You’ll just be taking me to the Yard household for a stroll anyway. I was just there yesterday, so my guess is Old Master’s Yard’s anger hasn’t yet completely dissipated. If he robs you of some more of your businesses in a fit of anger, that's not my problem.”

I said all this lightly and actually managed to trick Jacob.

I thought this would be the end of it, but unexpectedly, one of his subordinates suddenly spoke up, “Boss, don't be fooled by this little girl. Rumor has it she’s intelligent and adaptable. She’s probably trying to get away.”

Goodness, who said that? As if I was smart.

Biting my lower lip, I thought about how this issue was now unresolved and that Jacob was probably going to proceed with kidnapping me.

Just as I thought, Jacob immediately instructed his people to grab me the moment his subordinate said that. “Get her into the car. We’re going to the Yard household together.”

“I will not!”

“Hah, you don’t have a choice. Take her away!” Jacob waved his hand, and two men pulled me to their car.

I struggled hard. “Isn’t this kidnapping? I can report you to the police.”

“Do you still think you have a chance to call the police?”

“I already called the police when I was in the car. They probably have my location now and will be arriving soon. If you let me go now, I won't report you when the police come.”
