“Forget it. Let me take a look.” Sean stood up from the chair and tossed his phone to Alex. “Deal with it. Don't let
Sean track my phone signal and find this place.”
“Okay.” Alex nodded.
With a hand shoved in his pocket, Sean walked toward the little room in the warehouse.
Natalie was tied to the couch, unable to move. Her mouth was covered with duct tape, so she could not speak at
all. Not only were her clothes disheveled, but her hair was also extremely messy, making her looked rather
pathetic.
However, she could not be bothered by that. With much difficulty, she sat up on the old sofa and glanced around
fearfully. The only thing she could guess was that she was in a warehouse.
Just when Natalie was still feeling scared, she suddenly heard footsteps.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe glanced at the door subconsciously. In the next second, it flung open and in walked a tall figure.
When she caught a clearer glimpse of the person, she widened her eyes in disbelief. “It's you?”
As her mouth was taped by duct tape, her words were muffled.
However, Sean could guess what she was saying from her expression and the shock in her eyes.
“It's me. Are you surprised?” Sean carried a chair and walked toward Natalie.
Her eyes widened as she called out again.
This time, Sean could not guess what she was saying. He ripped off the tape over her mouth and said, “Damn it!
Didn't I tell Alex to tape it more loosely? He disobeyed me.”
Ignoring what he was mumbling, Natalie yelled loudly, “You're the one who kidnapped me!”
“Isn't it obvious?” Sean took a step back and sat on the chair.
Natalie's body trembled. “Why did you do that?”
“Why?” As if he had just heard a joke, he chuckled. His expression changed drastically all of a sudden as a twisted
look crossed his face. “How dare you give me falsified clues for the will? Yet, you're asking me why I kidnapped
you?”
Natalie's face turned pale. “You...”
“You want to ask me how I found out, right?” The menacing expression on Sean's face disappeared and was
replaced by his usual frivolous smile. “When I went to Astoria, I didn't find the will at all. Just when I was about to
return, I discovered that there are people deliberately obstructing my journey. Only then did I realize that I've been
lied to by you—no, all of you!”
As he spoke, he crossed his legs. “You must've told Shane long ago that I'm looking for the will. Otherwise, why
would he instruct his men to keep me overseas? However, both of you failed in the end. I made it back!”
Still, the way he returned was very humiliating.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDespite being a member of the Thompson family, he had to resort to illegal migration to return home.
He would never forget this grudge so easily.
Natalie cast her gaze downward. “I'm sorry. I didn't want to deceive you with false information either.”
“But you still did it, right?” A grim look crossed Sean's face. He stood up, grabbed her neck and pinned her against
the sofa. “Did you know that because of you, I almost died in the middle of the ocean?”
He tightened his grip.
Natalie felt like her neck was going to be snapped into two. She could barely breathe and her face turned red. Her
expression gradually became unpleasant as she said hoarsely, “I don't know! However, I have no choice. Shane
didn't know where the will is, yet you forced me to give it to you after two months. If not, you'll harm the people
close to me. This was the only choice I had then.”
With a frenzied look in his eyes, Sean laughed like a madman. “Indeed, I shouldn't have placed any home on you
from the start. I thought that you're capable, but it turns out that you could do sh*t.”
“What do you want to do?” Natalie glared at him with bloodshot eyes.
Sean tightened his grip once again, causing Natalie to yell out in pain. Feeling even more suffocated, she opened
her mouth to breathe.
