Chapter 1334

However, the silver-haired man merely laughed mockingly. “I know he’s dead, but he died too quickly for my liking. That’s why I’m going to torture the love of his life so he won’t be able to rest in peace!”

Corinne shrank back with alarm. She could tell the silver-haired man was a psychopath who had no moral qualms about hurting others for fun.

A look of condescension flashed across the silver-haired man’s eyes. “Scared now, are we? I don’t remember you being this much of a coward previously.”

Corinne gritted her teeth and said nothing. ‘Of course I wasn’t scared last time! I wasn’t pregnant then. I could fight them off and still have energy to run after.’

The silver-haired man chuckled softly. “Don’t worry. I’m not going to torture you right away. You should thank the baby in your belly for that. The baby’s still has some use to me, so I’ll wait until you’ve safely delivered that b*stard before having my way with you!”

Corinne frowned. “What use do you have for my baby? Just what are you planning to do?”Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updates…

The silver-haired man poked her belly. “Now that Jeremy’s dead, I’m pretty sure the Holdens would do anything to get their hands on the baby. I’m going to use the baby to blackmail them into giving me their fortune!”

Corinne immediately understood what he was getting at. She scoffed and said, “That’s the stupidest plan I’ve ever heard! This baby has nothing to do with the Holdens. Even if it does, the Holdens will never agree to give you their fortunes just to save a baby!”

The silver-haired man smiled coldly at her. “Haven’t you heard? The very night Jeremy’s grandparents received news of his death, they immediately made a will stating that all of their fortunes would go to

that little b*stard in your belly in the event of their deaths.”

Corinne was shocked. “What? Where did you get that information from? That’s impossible!”

The silver-haired man grinned sinisterly. “I don’t see what’s so impossible about that. I mean, the baby is the only surviving bloodline of Jeremy. Plus, the Holdens have always been known to uphold their age-old traditions of passing all of their fortunes to the eldest grandson.”

It was the first time Corinne had ever heard of that. Thus, she was understandably shocked that Pamela and Greg would make such a drastic decision in such a short time. However, that still did not answer her question of where the silver-haired man got the information from.

After thinking it over, Corinne said calmly to him, “So what you’re saying is, all of this comes down to money. Well, let me save you the trouble: Just name a number, and I’ll give it to you.”

The silver-haired man was a little taken aback, but he then smiled as though he was amused. “You’ll give it to me? I don’t think a little lady like you can afford the number I want.”

“I can’t speak for the Holdens, but I can d*mn well speak for myself. To be honest, I have in my possession a few properties which can be sold for tens of millions of dollars. I can guarantee you that you’ll never want anything else for the rest of your life. I’m willing to give them all to you if you let me go,” said Corinne.

The silver-haired man gazed intently into Corinne’s eyes to see if she was lying, and he believed her when he saw the resolution in her eyes.
