Chapter 793 Give The Baby Back
Natalie was stunned when she saw that it was Yara and clenched her fists.
Both of them looked the same but felt entirely different.
One was dressed elegantly in a white satin dress, while the other looked mature and sexy in a black lace evening gown.
The crowd flew into an uproar. Nobody dared make a move.
Holly swiveled her head back and forth between Yara and Natalie. “W-Who is who? What just happened?” she exclaimed in disbelief.
It made sense that Holly didn’t know what was going on. However, Silas and Natalie were well aware of the situation.
“Yara, welcome to Nova’s baby shower.” Silas reached out and said anxiously, “But please, give me back my baby.”
Yara took a step backward. She held on to the baby with one arm and held a needle to her neck with the other hand.
“Give her back to you? Why should I?” Yara laughed manically. “This is a rare opportunity for me. Why do you think I should give this child back to you before I even reach my goal?”
“Yara! Don’t overdo it!” Silas’s eyes reddened with anger. “You tried to poison my father and sabotage Natalie and Samuel’s relationship but failed. What are you trying to do now? Just come at me. Nova has nothing to do with this. Give her back to us!” he bellowed.
“Silas, so what if I overdo it?” Yara smiled nonchalantly. “This needle is poisonous. Do you think this one-month-old baby can withstand the poison when not even an adult could? She will surely die if I poke her with this needle!”
Yara pretended to poke Nova’s neck with the needle, making her cry even louder.
“Nova! My daughter!” Holly shrieked at the top of her lungs.
“What do you want?” Silas glared at Yara and asked through gritted teeth. “You took Nova hostage. What do you want from us? Just tell me. How much do you need? I will give you everything I have, as long as you don’t hurt her.”
Yara laughed manically when she saw how stumped Silas was.
Everything was going according to her plan.
However, she didn’t want money, nor was she using Nova to threaten Silas.
Her real target was…
Yara’s gaze landed on Natalie. She glared at her and said, “I don’t want money. I just want to talk to my sister, Natalie.”
Holly knelt down in front of Natalie upon her words. “Natalie, I’m begging you. Please save Nova.”
After a moment’s hesitation, Silas couldn’t help but get onto his knees. “I know… I shouldn’t be doing this, but I don’t have a choice. Nova is our first and only daughter! Holly is weak and had a difficult pregnancy. Nova’s death will crush her,” he begged.
“Please get up!” Natalie hurriedly helped Silas and Holly up. “I should be the one apologizing. This score is between the two of us. Nova shouldn’t be in the picture. Don’t worry, I won’t let anything happen to her.”
Holly and Silas dissolved into tears.
Natalie walked over to Yara and faced her head-on. “Let’s talk, Yara. But please give Nova back to Uncle Silas first. You only needed a hostage to threaten me. So why don’t you take me as hostage instead?”
Yara was fuming mad as she stared at Natalie, who remained calm and collected.
How could she still act all high and mighty when I have the upper hand? She must be putting on an act.
“My dear sister…” Yara smirked. “What’s the hurry? Let me hold the child a bit more while we talk. I will give the child back to them if you cooperate with me. Of course, If you don’t…”
