After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire -
Chapter 736 A Threat
Chapter 736 A Threat
Susan kept on snarling in desperation. She just couldn't figure out a reasonable explanation accounting for his sudden change, feeling it hard to believe that Henry turned into a beast just because she lost her feelings for him.
She could hardly remember why she fell in love with him back then. But on second thought, it suddenly occurred to her that her first crush in youth was aiming at Manuel. Even she failed to recall the details to explain how she then developed a passionate relationship with Henry.
She glared at him with her eyes burning in rage, feeling like tearing him apart.
But Henry simply replied with a cold glance, "Susan, from the very beginning when I chose to get close to you, it has all been part of my plan."
"What did you say?" Susan was stunned, goggling.
"You are a well-bred lady while I was born as an orphan. Do you believe that it was destiny that bound us together?" Henry sneered as if he were telling a ridiculous story. "Henry, tell me, what on earth do you want?"
"Let me be honest. I took you away from Manuel. I know how you feel about him-it must be a kind of feeling lurching between love and hatred. I know you used to love him. However, there is a concern that he's your stepbrother, and you replace it hard to admit it. That's why I seized the chance to sneak in by misleading you into the thought that you had the right to love someone else and forget about Manuel." "Henry, who are you?" Susan gritted to ask.
It seemed what he said exactly accorded with what happened at that time. Back in the old days, she did have a crush on Manuel. That was why she kissed Manuel. However, she failed to convince herself to believe that she fell in love with her stepbrother, whom she used to consider an invader of her original family. That was why she didn't hesitate to turn down Manuel's love confession at that time. She just wanted to prove that she didn't love him.
However, there was one thing making her confused-how did Henry manage to know about all these? Especially about her true feelings for Manuel?
"Who am I? I bet you don't know even if I tell you. But I am sure your dad will recognize me." Henry put on a horrible sneer.
"Henry Parker!" Susan screamed.
"Okay. Let's just make a call to your dad." Henry suddenly took out a phone.
It was her phone.
Startled, Susan glared at him.
"In case of any nonsense coming out of your mouth, I gotta apologize for what I am doing." Henry then took out a piece of cloth as a gag.
"Open your mouth." He approached.
"Listen, I don't wanna hurt you."
But Susan simply replied with a glare. Sulking, Henry pinched her jaw and stuffed the gag into her mouth before she could make a few more screams. Susan could do nothing but glare at him with bloodshot eyes. But Henry didn't seem to care. He picked up her phone and started to swipe on it.
"You've made the call?" he sneered.
He saw the record to call Manuel. And Henry did not ask for her answer.
"Susan, you know what? If you had still reserved even a bit of feeling for me, I wouldn't have done this to you." Henry then made a call.
Susan felt like risking her own life to kill him if she could. It was late into the night. But Susan had no idea about the time as all windows were shut. Soon, the line was connected.
"Susan?" Edward's voice sounded a bit drowsy.
"Mr Phillips, it's me." Said Henry.
"Henry? Why are you calling so late? Are you staying with Susan?" Edward sounded confused.
"Yeah, Susan is here with me." Replied Henry.
"Anything goes wrong with her?" Edward soon turned to be nervous. He felt like there must be something foreboding.
"I kidnapped her," Henry stressed out to continue.
Edward was too stunned to utter.
"I kidnapped her," Henry repeated.
"Henry, are you crazy?" Edward was exasperated.
"Mr Phillips, have you ever recalled a man named Barry Anderson?" asked Henry.
Upon hearing that, Edward felt like being frozen.
"I bet you still remember him, the founder of SkyRainbow."
"Who are you?" Edward questioned seriously.
"My name is Henry Anderson, the son of Barry."
"You...I thought you should have..." Edward stuttered out of great surprise.
"I should have been dead, right? Or at least I should have disappeared from Kensbury or even the country?" Henry then continued mockingly, "Actually, I survived it. Gone were my parents. Then I was sent to the orphanage. Now I finally grow up and I am here to revenge on my family."
"What do you want?"
"I bet you know what I want. I want you to suffer the same as you had done to us. You gotta suffer the pain from a broken family!"
"Henry! I had nothing to do with your father's death!"
"Stop lying! You know the truth yourself!" Henry huffed fiercely.
"It's nothing but a common commercial rivalry."
"So you are gonna convince me that my father, as a businessman, deserved it?"
"Just listen to me!"
"There is nothing worth listening to!" Henry didn't continue to argue with him.
If it weren't for the sake of Susan, he would have conspired against Edward long ago. However, Susan greatly disappointed him. He wouldn't have pushed this far if Susan had reserved her unfailing faith in him. The worst he should have done could be only the consequence that the Phillips Bank would go bankrupt. But now he was driven to the point that he had to kill them all.
"Transfer all your shares to Susan and let me take it over! I mean Susan owns the shares nominally and I have the power to make decisions." Henry required.
He tried to avoid suspicion from the police by indirectly taking control of all the shares after Edward transferred his shares to Susan.
"Henry,"
"Hey, I haven't finished." Henry interrupted and continued, "After you have done this, try to suicide. If I am not mistaken, you should be suffering from hypertension recently. Just overdose yourself with pills. I suppose that should be enough to kill you with cerebral haemorrhage."
"Are you insane?" Edward snarled.
"You can trade your life for hers. It's up to you."
