Return Of The Real Heiress: Secrets And Masks by Caspian Wood

My Billionaire Family 444

Chapter 444

Hearing Ghost Hand's words, Nathan was so scared that his legs trembled, and he collapsed on the ground.

Staring at the gun aimed at him, Nathan pleased repeatedly in a shaky voice, "I'll sign it. I'll work with you.

"Please, don't kill me. Don't kill me. I've got family-young and old. If I'm gone, what will happen to them?

"If | die, what will happen to my thousands of employees and my business?"

Nathan cried his heart out as he spoke. He knew all too well what Ghost Hand and his crew could do. After being

locked up there for days, Nathan had seen many who refused to compromise shot dead. Nathan couldn't die

there. Everyone would be afraid of death. He had no choice but to give in.

Ghost Hand chuckled, clearly pleased, and said, "Very good. A wise person adapts to circumstances. Nathan,

let's sign the contract later.

"I promise you'll return safely to see your family."

After speaking, Ghost Hand glanced in Cherise's direction.

Mary clung tightly to Cherise's arm, and Cherise could feel her trembling. She reached out and gently patted

Mary's hand, trying to comfort her.

Cherise looked up in the direction where Ghost Hand was standing.

Even though he wore a mask, Cherise knew he was staring at her

As expected, a few minutes later, Ghost Hand spoke again, "It's great to meet you today. Let's meet again at the

stthe day after tomorrow."

Upon hearing those words, the captives tensed up with fearful expressions.

It seemed the gathering would be held the day after tomorrow. Everyone wondered who it would be next time

and if it would be their turn.

While everyone was on edge, Ghost Hand said almost playfully, "In the past, we've always invited gentlemen on

stage. "So, why don't we warmly welca new lady on stage the day after next? "Ms. Leach, or rather, Mrs.

Chivers now, what are your thoughts?"

Hearing this, Mary gasped in fear and whispered, "What should we do?"

Everyone else followed Ghost Hand's gaze towards Cherise.

Many people recognized her, but even more were surprised when they heard her being called Mrs. Chivers.

It would have been unimaginable that Morris’ wife, the spouse of the most feared, respected, and wealthiest man

in Clusia, could be captured and brought to such a terrifying place by Ghost Hand. Everyone was waiting for

Cherise's response.

In the end, Cherise raised her head with an air of arrogance and calmly said, "Whatever." Then she just

continued to stand there quietly.

Ghost Hand clapped for her and said, "Great! The woman chosen by Morris is indeed extraordinary. I'm eagerly

looking

forward to the day after tomorrow."

Ghost Hand waved at the crowd before he walked back to the att

Cherise's eyes followed his figure, studying his movement, trying to guess how old he was.

Meanwhile, Cherise kept exploring the structure of the huge factory. It was heavily fortified, with surveillance

cameras everywhere. Aside from the rooms, she could hardly find any exits.

It appeared that the breakfast and the people outside had entered through the attic. Cherise assumed that the

exit must be

located there.

She narrowed her sharp eyes with a hint of curiosity and, under the urging of the Ghost Hand staff, turned and

returned to the room with Mary, Damian, and Charles. After leaving Carson's island, Morris seemed to be feeling

much better.

He didn't return to Chivers Residence, but after another visit to the Dark Web Division, he regained his usual

vigor and went back to work at the Chivers Group.

On the road, Leo, who was driving, and Steven in the passenger seat, were reporting on their work

Leo said, "Mr. Chivers, we have been unable to contact Nathan Anderson, the CEO of the chip company with

which we signed a contract stago.

"It has been two months since we last heard from him, and we have learned that his family has reported his

disappearance to the authorities.

"lI am concerned that our project may need to be delayed."

"Oh? Another missing one. Is that a coincidence?" Morris said so as if he was making a statement rather than

asking a question.

Just as Morris finished speaking, Steven received a phone call. After hanging up, he said, "Mr. Chivers, word from

our people is that Nathan has returned to the office." Upon hearing this, Morris gently rubbed his lips, deep in

thought.

Nathan had just been released from Ghost Hand earlier that morning.

As night fell, Nathan got out of his car in a private underground parking lot, ready to take the elevator home.

He looked completely exhausted and dispirited.

It seemed like Nathan hadn't yet recovered from the torment of the past two months, and he was very cautious.

The elevator door opened, and Nathan walked in.

Before the door could close, a tall man in a black baseball cap followed Nathan inside.

Nathan started to feel a bit uneasy and quickly pressed the button for his floor, the thirty-second.

The man in the baseball cap pressed the button for the thirty-third floor.

Seeing that they weren't going to the sfloor made Nathan feel somewhat relieved.

However, for sreason, the elevator suddenly got stuck as it reached the eighteenth floor and stopped there.

Nathan started to panic; he had endured this closed-off feeling for two months. He didn't expect to experience it

again after leaving the Ghost Hand.

Nathan backed into the farthest corner of the elevator, leaning against the wall, sweating heavily, and struggling

to stay upright as he slowly started to slide down.

He kept saying, "I'll sign it. I'll sign anything you want. I'll give you all my company's secrets.

"I don't want to be here. | want to go home. Don't point that gun at me. I'll do whatever you say."
