Chapter 556 Shudder
Melissa did not fall for the trick. She continued to hold on to Sophia as her hostage.
Natalie dared not make any move after noticing that Sophia had passed out.
“Take it off!” Melissa said with a haughty laugh. “I’ll give you five seconds to remove your clothes. If you refuse to cooperate, I’ll slash her face with this knife!”
“Don’t you dare do that!” Natalie gritted her teeth. “You’ll pay the price for what you’ve done!”
Melissa burst into laughter as if she had heard the funniest joke. “Who are you to threaten me when you can’t even protect yourself? There’s nothing you could do to me unless you don’t care about this little girl. Should I have to pay the price for what I did, I’ll make sure this girl suffers before me! This is the price you have to pay for separating me from Yandel!”
Melissa’s evil laugh that resonated in the warehouse caused Natalie to shudder.
“Five!”
“Four!”
“Three!”
As she was counting down, Melissa’s subordinate started playing with a knife around Sophia’s face. It was as if he was ready to cut the little girl’s face when the countdown ended.
“One!”
Natalie immediately took off her sweater. The wound on her arm that was stuck to the sweater started tearing the moment she removed the garment. Blood then started dripping down her arms onto the ground.
Melissa was pleased that she had succeeded in getting Natalie to remove her clothes. She laughed and said, “Serve you right. This is what you get for taking Yandel away from me…”
Meanwhile, Yara, who was observing them from a monitor, was thrilled to see how humiliated Natalie was.
Yet, Gale could not understand Yara’s action. He took a glance at Melissa from the screen before turning his attention to Yara.
Shouldn’t we take this opportunity to get rid of them once and for all since they’re in our hands?
“I think we should finish the child off as soon as possible,” Gale suggested.
“Calm down. We still have time.” Yara smirked. “Don’t you think we should take a video of Natalie doing all the nasty stuff and put it up on the internet? Samuel would definitely despise her had he found that everyone had seen her naked!”
“But this is not part of our plan.”
“The plan has changed. I didn’t expect Melissa to react in such a manner after taking that medicine.” A corner of Yara’s lips quirked up before letting out a sigh. “I used to wonder what caused Dexmed Pharmaceutical to go downhill even when my dad was an expert in the medical field. But I finally learned that my dad had shifted his focus and poured his heart and soul into producing a more powerful medicine after collaborating with King.”
Gale could not understand Yara and disagreed with her action, but he could only abide by King’s order and act according to Yara’s demand. After all, she was his superior in this operation in Chanaea.
The two of them stopped talking and diverted their attention back to the screen.
Suddenly, the surveillance camera on the earring lost its signal, and the screen scrambled.
“What’s wrong?” Yara asked.
“It’s either someone has damaged the surveillance camera or the device is overloaded with information.”
Gale tried contacting the assassin he had deployed to the scene but to no avail. Just like the surveillance camera, the communication devices had lost their signals.
“What’s going on?” Gale could not believe his eyes. He had dealt with many failed missions before but had never encountered a signal loss problem like this.
