Chapter 1029
“What do you want?!” Helen snapped even as she took a step back, leaning against her car as she glared warily at the goons around her, as well as at Clark and Gable.
“What do we want, you ask?”
Clark shook his head even as he strode up, brandishing his steel bat threateningly at Helen’s face. “Well, you really are a beauty up close. Killing you right away is a real waste… why not let the boys have some fun, Gable?”
As the goons around them laughed sleazily, Clark grinned sinisterly. “I remembered everything you said at the dinner! Don’t you think you should be apologizing now, huh?!”
It was late into the night, and they were in the middle of nowhere it was the perfect opportunity for a perfect murder.
And yet, Helen was not afraid at all, even snapping coolly, “Apologize? Really? What you’ve done has only further earned you the title of prick.” Helen’s tough reaction actually gave Clark pause. He turned to look into Helen’s car and was relieved to see no one else inside.
Gable then came over as well, glowering, “Still talking tough now, Helen? Whoever gave you the confidence?”
“Just spitting facts.” Helen shrugged. “So where’s Luna?”
“I’m right here!” Luna shouted as she alighted, walking up to Helen and standing akimbo as she sneered. “You didn’t expect this, did you? Well, you had it coming!”
“What an idiot.” Helen shook her head, seeing how smug Luna was.
“W-What’s that supposed to mean?” Luna asked, confused by Helen’s confidence.
Why was Helen not on her knees, begging for her life in this situation?
“Why don’t you look around?” Helen asked, looking pointedly at the goons surrounding them. “What do you think would happen to you after they kill me? Did you really think that you’re safe?”
Luna did a double take. “What’s that supposed to mean?”
Helen gave her a sympathetic look, though she was also sneering. “If I were killed, your father would investigate and soon find out that you were the one who last called me. What do you think Clark and Gable here would do, in case you spilled the beans?”
“What would they do?” Luna drew a blank but soon flinched when she realized her situation.
However, she refused to believe it, even snapping loudly, “No… Uncle Clark and Uncle Gable promised! They’d even back me to become the next head of the family! You’re just making stuff up!”
Helen shook her head exasperatedly at that. “In that case, why don’t you look around you?”
“What?!” Luna did so and found that she was being surrounded too.
