Although William already retired, he held a high position for many years and still possessed an intimidating bearing. Meanwhile, Victor was a coward and couldn''t stand his ground.
Besides, a stern Timothy and some fierce bodyguards were standing beside William.
Victor realized that he had to agree to it no matter what.
If he agreed obediently, he might be able to suffer less. However, he wouldn''t get any rewards if he continued being stubborn.
"I can let Natalie leave thepany on one condition." Victor thought about it for a while. He wanted to gain the biggest advantage since he couldn''t defeat the Walkers.
Upon hearing that, William chuckled derisively. "Victor, did I treat you too politely? How dare you discuss conditions with me?"
Just then, Timothy replied calmly, "Father, leave it to me. I want to help Natalie too."
William shook his head. "You''re still young. If you want to help her, you should deal with Selena instead.
"We''re both fathers. Since Mr. Langley knows how to n for his daughter''s future, how can I fall behind him?"
Contempt was evident in his tone. When Victor heard that, he knew it was a threat.
"Mr. Walker, please let my daughter and wife go," Victor said. "Otherwise, I won''t let Natalie go even if you threaten to kill me.
"Though your family is prosperous, we''re the richest family in Amberton. We aren''t afraid.
"If we prevent Natalie from transferring her shares to Selena, she''ll be the biggest stakeholder in Langley Group."
As Victor spoke, he sneered indifferently. "If she really transferred the shares, she''ll let Mrs. Langley Senior down."
"I''ve never met someone as shameless as him." Meanwhile, William didn''t waste any more time talking to Victor. "Timothy, I''ll leave this to you. I only want to see the results."
"Yes, Father."
Timothy gave his bodyguard a look. Thetter dragged Victor into the lift, and then Timothy pressed the button to the basement.
After that, he called Marcus.
"Hey, Marcus. It''s Timothy. Can I trouble you with something?"
"Please speak."
"Can you help to take care of my sis? I meant, friend. It''s Natalie. I''m going to transfer Mrs. Langley Senior to Hector''s hospital for the next three days.
Smirking, he added, "We discovered something interesting, so we''ll need three days to deal with it.
"But, we can''t let Natalie find out about it. This is her first time in Dithoria. Since she doesn''t know anyone else, I''ll have to ask for your help. Most importantly, I don''t trust anyone apart from you."
Marcus thought briefly and agreed to the request. "Alright. Anyway, I''ll be resting for the next three days. I can take her shopping."
"Alright. Thank you, Marcus."
"No problem."
After hanging up, Timothy held his phone while deep in thought. Marcus seemed to know that Natalie was from the Walker family.
However, since Natalie wanted to keep it a secret, Marcus didn''t probe further.
Though Timothy sensed something amiss, he shook his head and came to his senses. There were more important things to do next.
Once they arrived at the carpark, the bodyguards suddenly ced a ck headpiece over Victor. He stumbled and was dragged to a car.
Before he could take a seat, the car started moving, causing him to tumble to the floor.
"Where are you bringing me to?" he yelled in fear. "Stop the car! Let me out!"
"Shut up," Timothy said coldly, giving Victor a few ps. "You should''ve listened to my father previously. He only wants results and doesn''t care about the process.
"Coincidentally, my methods are a little ruthless."
"Let me out of the car! This is illegal!"
Timothy sneered, "You keep saying we''re doing something illegal to you, but I''m just treating you as a guest. Don''t worry."
Then, he told the bodyguards, "Gag him."
"Yes, Mr. Timothy."
After the bodyguards covered Victor''s mouth, he could only make muffled sounds. Since he couldn''t speak or see anything, his terror intensified.
The car drove a long while before stopping.
Victor was forcefully dragged out of the car. After that, he kneeled in pain.
When the headpiece was lifted off Victor''s head, he saw Timothy ying with a lighter. Thetter lit a me and easily blew it out.
Once again, he lit the lighter and blew it out.
Victor almost went crazy because Timothy kept doing that.
Just when he was about to lose it, Timothy smirked slowly. "Tie him up and put him in a sack with stones tied to it. Then, throw him into the ocean.
"Before you throw him down, wait for me to call Mason."
"Yes, Mr. Timothy."
The bodyguards got to work swiftly. Timothy called Mason and softly discussed a few things with him. Once Mason acknowledged the n, Timothy hung up. Hanging up the phone, he looked meaningfully at his bodyguards. They threw Victor into a sack, tied rocks to it, and prepared to throw him into the ocean.
Meanwhile, Mason had already started video-calling Timothy. After passing the phone to Grace, Mason leaned in and whispered, "Mrs. Langley Senior, are you going to stop Natalie from leaving your family after this?"
"You!" Grace''s expression turned grim, her fingernails digging into her palm under the nket. "Why did you do that? I didn''t do anything bad to Nattie. Though Victor and Diana hurt her, I kept protecting Nattie."
"Mrs. Langley Senior, I won''t waste time talking about this. I''d like to know if you''ll let Natalie leave Langley Group."
Timothy continued coldly, "Otherwise, I''ll throw Victor into the ocean."
"Mom, save me!" Victor shouted in fear. "Save me!"
"Throw him in," Timothy ordered leisurely, still ying with the lighter.
"Yes, Mr. Timothy."
After pushing Victor''s head into a sack, the bodyguards tightened the opening and threw him into the ocean. However, the sack had a string attached. Timothy would order his bodyguards to pull Victor up if Grace said the word.
He was betting that Grace would care about Victor.
