Hugo removes the blindfold and Pueterico was able to see his daughter. She was blindfolded this time and Adrian was right behind her, a dagger to her neck.
"Sophia"
"Save it old man. She knows better than to speak only when I tell her to do so"
"You are free to do whatever you like to me. Take whatever you want. I'll give you anything. But please. Leave my daughters out of this" His voice sounded so heartbreaking that Sophia squirmed, hiding her tears.
"I want the will"
Mr. Pueterico fell silent immediately.
Adrian just smiled. "That's what I thought" He slowly bent down, trailing the dagger looking for the right place to slash through her skin. When he reached her throat, he leaned down, teasingly, to let her feel his hot breath on the curve of her neck. Sophia shuddered, her heart pounding. She didn't know what he was up to but she was sure whatever he was planning to do was not good. She had every reason to be afraid.
When she could feel the cold blade running down her neck, she shuddered again.
"What do you think you're doing" Mr. Pueterico said
"It will be a shame if such beauty has to go to waste, don't you think so Mr. Pueterico"
"You leave my daughter out of this. This is between you and I. No one else"
"Then make this easy for me. Where is it" Adrian shouts now very impatient. He drags Sophia head up by holding her hair so that Sophia was facing up , the dagger across her throat. Sophia shook in fear. "Dad just tell him where it is please....."
Mr. Pueterico struggled trying to break free from the ropes. Hugo held him back down. "Let my daughter go. If you dare leave so much as a scratch in her you'll regret it"
Adrian laughed. "You're literally on your death bed. You won't survive for much longer if you're not rushed to the hospital soon enough. Just save yourself the stress"
"Dad please" Sophia said trembling. " I don't mind dying. But I can't bear to see you or Pearl die. Just tell him where the damn will is please"
"So what's it going to be" Adrian asked. Suddenly there is commotion outside the mansion.
Pearl who was leaving the basement , stopped to look out the window. They were the cops and most of them were all armed. There were about 8 cop cars outside.
