Chapter 365 - Dead Meat

Just as expected, Melanie Taylor turned around to see that her men were now looking at her in a different light.

Enraged, she stomped back to her room and slammed the door shut.

Levi Taylor now hated his relative to his guts. ‘We’re biological siblings. How dare Finn Taylor insinuate that and insult us like that?’

As he left the hotel, Finn Taylor found his subordinates waiting for him.

He rushed over and said nothing. The longer they stayed outside, the more danger they were in.

Once they arrived at Hunter Sullivan’s house, Finn Taylor turned to his mother. “Hehe, I never thought that I would decide to save you one day.”

Wendy Jensen was placed in an awkward position and didn’t know what to say. She didn’t have a good relationship with her son, so she thought that he wouldn’t save her after she was kidnapped. Yet, he had shown up!

“Go back to Chicago. You’re not welcome here,” Finn Taylor said before heading upstairs. “We’re going back to San Francisco tomorrow.”

…

San Francisco.

Michelle Yeller and Josie Meyer were at a cafe together.

The two friends were in a daze.

They had just been hired by the Larson Corporation, but the company was acquired right after that. Although they had joined Mortal Corporation with everyone else, they still held the same job titles and salaries.

Neither of them understood what the company was up to and were discussing the matter with each other.

“Michelle, why do you think they sold the company?”

“I asked around, and I heard that the chairman and the person who acquired the company hold grudges against each other.”

“Grudges? Then, why would she sell the company to him?”

“I don’t know, but I also heard another rumor that our chairman just got divorced.”

“Divorced? I wonder who her husband was. Why did they get divorced?” Josie Meyer was gossipy and wanted to get to the bottom of the matter.

“I heard that his name is Finn Taylor and that he was caught on a date with our chairman’s best friend.”

“F*ck! I told you that all men are terrible, just like Timothy Taylor. Wasn’t he caught with his wife’s best friend too? He’s a Taylor too. See, all men with that surname are bad!”

But her friend shook her head. “I don’t think so, Josie. There’s no white or black in this world. There are good people as well as bad ones. You can’t just group everyone together just because of one bad egg. Besides, I think Timothy is a good man.”

Josie Meyer hated Finn Taylor. No matter what, she wasn’t going to believe her friend.

However, Michelle Yeller was different. She had a good impression of the man.

They couldn’t help but wonder if they were talking about the same man.

After some time, they made payment for their meal before leaving.

But they had no sooner walked out of the cafe than their heads were covered by a sack before they were thrown into a car. They struggled, but it was to no avail.

In the car, they were then knocked out. By the time they awoke, they were already in a dark room, surrounded by dozens of men.

The two girls made a guess from the men’s hair color, scars, and tattoos on their bodies.

“Who are you?” Josie Meyer boldly questioned the men.

“Oh, you’re not afraid of us.”

“Afraid of you? Why should we be? Are you monsters or aliens? What are you after? Money or sex?”

A man walked out from the group. He was the leader of the gang, and his name was Kyle Kennedy. “You’re a bold one to dare to ask about our intentions. I could tell you, but you would have to die then.”

Josie Meyer sneered. “Do you think you’ll be able to scare us like that? If you’re after neither of those things, then Quince Larson must’ve sent you because he has a grudge against Yvette Larson.”

‘F*ck!’ Kyle Kennedy’s heart thumped. ‘I had never expected her to make such an acute guess.’ 

“It seems like I can’t keep you alive then.” Kyle Kennedy grabbed a dagger.

“What, you’re going to kill us? Do you really think I’ll be afraid of you? Come on. Here’s my jugular vein, here’s my heart, and here’s my temple. Come on and kill me then.” Josie didn’t believe that Kyle Kennedy would kill her. ‘They are simply trying to threaten Yvette Larson to cough up that 500 million dollars. This is a problem between the business owners, while I’m a mere employee. Why am I being dragged into it?’ 

“You don’t dare to do it, right? Let us go then.”

Slap!

Kyle Kennedy gave the woman a vicious slap against the wall. It was true that he wouldn’t dare to kill a soul, but he could still beat the other up.

“How dare you slap me? I’ll fight it out with you.” Josie Meyer was retarded and was unreasonable to begin with.

How could she still be fighting with Kyle Kennedy at this time? She was facing a bunch of men that were willing to sacrifice their own lives! It was just that she hadn’t provoked them enough yet.

If she were to go any further, she would be dead meat.

Thankfully, Michelle Yeller grabbed her friend before the latter could rush forward. “Bro, we’re sorry, but this is a grudge between our bosses. It has nothing to do with lowly employees like us. I believe that you’re magnanimous and won’t hurt us, right?”

Kyle Kennedy finally calmed down after hearing her words. “Alright—you’re right. I won’t hold it against you, but you better hand your phones over and not stir up any trouble.”

Josie Meyer was about to say something, but her friend stopped her before she could do so. After that, the latter quickly handed their phones over.

Seeing how obedient Michelle Yeller was, Kyle Kennedy was pleased. He then gestured for his men to leave.

Only when they left did Josie Meyer smash everything in the room in anger.

But just then, her friend said, “I sent Timothy Taylor a message earlier.”

“A message?”

“Yes, I pressed the voice recording button and sent the recording to him. He’ll probably come and save us.”

Josie Meyer couldn’t help but laugh. “Michelle, oh Michelle. You’re such a fool. If you had sent the message to our chairman, she might’ve sent someone to come and save us.. However, we’re dead meat now.”
