After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire -
Chapter 1038 Threat
Chapter 1038 Threat
"Doyle is the prince of Jolencami, while Besse is an adopted daughter of Queen Carol. Doyle's life is more important to Jolencami. For the friendship of both countries, you should choose Doyle's life." Skye says coldly, "Don't worry, just bring Besse here. I won't kill Doyle. I was just giving him a taste of what I've been going through all these years! Doyle has to experience the loss of a loved one and face her death!"
Skye made it clear-he wanted Besse's life to be revenged on Doyle. Oscar would not risk Besse's life. But, Skye would kill Doyle if he didn't see Besse. At this point, Skye would have given up surviving. However, Oscar was clear that if he failed to save Doyle, Besse would hate him forever.
With all these in mind, Oscar looked stern, and he was currently trying hard to keep himself calm.
He'd already got a sniper in place, who could shoot them down from a distance. But there was no information coming back from the sniper saying that they got prepared yet. A sniper needed time to ensure that there was no room for error when taking a shot at someone.
20 minutes might not be enough.
Oscar spoke up, "Okay, I'll try to bring Besse here, but I can't guarantee that she will come back for Doyle."
Skye snorted and replied, "If she refused, I'll kill Doyle here."
Oscar stared at him tightly.
"And as the Commander of Northfield, isn't it easy for you to bring someone here?" Skye didn't listen to any excuses from Oscar at all.
Oscar's eyes flickered and he whispered a few words to Theodore, who later nodded and left.
Doyle thought Oscar was going to ask Theodore to bring Besse over, and at that moment he was struggling harder.
Theodore walked towards the black sedan behind them, opened the door and got in.
Besse looked at him.
"The kidnappers must see you." Said Theodore.
"I heard it," Besse said, "I'll go."
"Oscar told me he'll stall for some time. Stay sight here. We've arranged snipers, when the time is right, they'll shoot them down, so we can save Doyle. Oscar let me tell you not to worry. Just believe in him." Besse sneered. She looked at Theodore and said, "Do you trust him 100%?!"
"He can't." Besse said bluntly, "He's not that strong."
"But he will do his best."
"Is it still useful to try your best when someone has died?"
Theodore frowned, "Besse, you should know that we can completely ignore you and Doyle now. Even if Doyle is the prince of Jolencami, what does it matter? Even if he gets into trouble within Northfield's borders, at most we will only suffer some attacks on humanism. It won't have any impact on us! Don't you think your attitude is a bit too much? Just because Oscar likes you, you act like you're invincible?" "So, you don't have to save Doyle," Besse said. "I'll go and switch him myself!"
As she spoke, Besse intended to open the car door.
Theodore suddenly grabbed Besse to stop her.
"If Oscar hasn't asked me to watch you, I wouldn't have stooped you to throw away your life!" he said in a huff.
That was what Oscar told him earlier. Oscar had expected that Besse would choose to exchange herself for Doyle.
Now, Theodore wanted to give up and hand Besse over. At least, they saved the prince of Jolencami.
However, he had to obey Oscar's orders. He started to imagine what Oscar would become if another woman he loved died in front of him again, although Oscar had not succeeded to take her hand. In this lifetime, Oscar had never had an easy time in matters of the heart.
Being restrained by him, Besse turned livid. She suddenly understood something and yelled at Theodore, "So you're not here to discuss with me, you're here to control me!"
Oscar's current objective was to prevent her from rescuing Doyle. So if Oscar failed to save Doyle, wouldn't he let her show her face?
Oscar's selfishness had never changed.
"I don't care what you think, but I can't let you go until I receive Oscar's new orders!"
"Theodore!"
"It's no use calling me, I only listen to Oscar!"
Besse certainly knew Theodore's loyalty to Oscar. Her eyes were red and she looked at Theodore fiercely.
Oscar was still confronting Skye. Skye glanced at the time and said, "Commander, there are still 5 minutes left."
"Yes," Oscar said coldly.
"Anyway, I'll kill Doyle if she didn't show up in 5 minutes."
Oscar tightened his lips. There was still no response from the snipers.
Oscar turned around and suddenly left. Skye looked at him. Doyle also kept a close eye on Oscar. He hoped Oscar would not bring Besse to the scene.
Oscar's sudden departure surprised both of them. He left without saying a word, and no one knew what he was planning to do.
But Skye didn't sway at all. After all, Doyle's life was in his hands.
Oscar returned to the car. The atmosphere inside the car was tense and oppressive. It was obvious that Besse and Theodore were not getting along well. And now, Besse's hands were shackled by Theodore and they got red. Besse must have resisted quite fiercely, otherwise, Theodore wouldn't have used so much force.
"Theodore, get off," Oscar ordered.
Theodore glanced at Besse and released her wrists. Due to Besse's resistance, he had to use force. But he hadn't explained it to Oscar. He thought Oscar had noticed that. Then, Theodore got off the car with a huff.
Oscar sat in the car. Besse looked coldly at him. His gaze fell on her wrists, which were swollen.
He asked, "Does it hurt?"
