Chapter 994

Stephan hummed lightly.

I looked at the door, and my eyes flickered. "Can you open the door then, Mr. Stephan?"

Noticing that Stephan was moving, I looked at him and immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

He had opened his eyes and was staring fixedly at me.

I gulped and asked in a quivering voice, "Are you drunk, Mr. Stephan?"

Stephan got up to his feet and said blandly, "Don't infuriate Mr. Milan. He’s more frightening than you think."

He turned around and left after saying that.

I froze in place, my mood extraordinarily complicated.

Looking at Stephan's back, I said in a hoarse voice, "I just want to see how they're doing."

"They won't die," the man said indifferently.

I slumped to the ground, feeling like I was going to break down.

Was there no other way to save them?

What if I begged Milan?

There was no better way, so I could only try my luck.

I got up from the floor and ran to the kitchen.

After running into the kitchen, I found a fruit knife and slit my wrist.

This was not the first time I had harmed myself. It was nothing terrifying to me, so I did it without a single hesitation.

I walked to the living room and fell to the floor slowly.

Just as I was about to lose consciousness, I saw a servant rushing toward me in a hurry. I breathed a sigh of relief and closed my eyes.

I woke up in a hospital and got to meet Milan as I had hoped.

"You're awake?” he asked with little emotion.

Franky stood behind him and asked me blandly, "Why did you try to kill yourself?"

I looked at Stephan, then at Milan, feeling a little dumbfounded.

Did Stephan not tell Milan I had set him up?

I looked at him with slightly complicated eyes. I then asked Milan with a husky voice, "Sir, can I exchange m y life for theirs?"

Milan sneered. "Use your life to exchange for four lives? Do you think you're worth a lot of money?"

I took a deep breath and asked, "Aren't you curious

about me and the Fredericks' relationship?"

He raised his eyebrows. "Does that concern me?"

It was too hard to communicate with this man.

I fell silent for a very long time and said, "Since the Fredericks are looking for me and you also intend to send me back, why don't you just do me and the Fredericks a favor and let my friends go too?"

Franky clicked his tongue. "You must've hit your head, huh, woman? How dare you talk to Mr. Milan about favors?”

I ignored him and merely looked at Milan, waiting for his answer.

Milan looked at me and asked, "What’s your relationship with the Fredericks, then?"

"It goes much deeper than you think.”

This was a complete lie, but I could only say that. They revered the Fredericks, so the closer I was to the Fredericks, the more chances I had in bargaining and negotiating with him.

Milan did not speak immediately, but after staring at me for a moment, he said, "The terms are mutual.”

I was a little stunned, then grew serious. "What do you want?"
