Several men knew that Alexis Wells was not just talking, and they didn't want to go to jail.
"As for the remaining eighty thousand..."
"I'll go and get the rest tomorrow, and I'll transfer all the money to this card before seven o'clock tomorrow night."
At first, the men looked at each other and whispered something.
They were worried that Alexis Wells might run away after hearing about Italy, and no one would pay back the money.
But after some thought, the Wells family was right here, and they knew the hospital room number where Lucas wells was staying. They couldn't escape.
Besides, Alexis didn't seem like she was fooling them. The men left with one hundred thousand dollars
As soon as they left, Victoria Wells immediately approached Alexis unwillingly.
"Alexis , this has nothing to do with you. Why did you get involved? Why didn't you stay away? I was so scared just now. Thank goodness you're okay."
Victoria Wells looked around with her eldest daughter, but she didn't care about Avery's life or death.
But Alexis' attention was on Avery
"Dad, Mom, what's going on? Why did Big Brother owe money? Why did you make Avery help him pay it back? Why didn't you tell me about this when I left a few days ago?"
If it weren't for the fact that she called home yesterday and the house keeper told her about it on the phone, she would still be in the dark.
"I heard that Mr. Blackwood is already forty years old. He's twenty years older than Avery, and he's not good-looking either."
Thinking of the rumors she had heard, Alexis couldn't help but speak up for her sister.
"No matter what, Avery is also your daughter. How can you push her into the fire pit just for the sake of your eldest son? Isn't that ruining her life?"
Hearing Alexis' defense, Avery's heart, which had been frozen by her parents, warmed up again.
Yesterday, when she was sent to Ethan Blackwood's bed in exchange, her sister was not aware of it.
Now that her sister knows, she will definitely do everything in her power to prevent her from returning to Ethan Blackwood's side.
Thinking of Ethan's masked face, Avery felt a little depressed.
I wonder how that man on the phone just now will handle it?
Will he come to rescue her with money?
It's impossible to think about it. What Harrison said was thirty million yuan. She is just a commodity, not worth that much.
Avery was grateful for her sister's defense, but she had already severed ties with the Wells family and didn't want to say anything in the face of Victoria's cold eyes.
She just stood by her sister's side, letting her hold her hand.
"Alexis ,you know the situation in the Wells family now. We have to sacrifice someone, and Mom can't let you go because of your health, so she sent this girl instead."
Victoria still wanted to push the blame onto Avery She pointed to her husband's wrist, which was still wrapped in gauze, and glared at her youngest daughter dissatisfiedly.
"Also, if it weren't for this girl, your father's wrist wouldn't have been dislocated, and your eldest brother wouldn't have had his leg broken by a group of snakes chasing him. It's all her fault, and she should take responsibility."
"Mom!" Alexis disagreed with her mother's words, her beautiful face serious as she faced her parents.
"No matter what you say, I won't ignore Avery's situation."
With that, Alexis tightly held onto Avery's hand and said, "Avery, sister will take you to the Blackwood family to talk to Third Master Ethan . You're still so young and beautiful, you can't ruin your future with that man."
No matter what her parents thought, Alexis had made up her mind and wouldn't change it.
Even if her younger sister was willing to be with a forty-year-old man with flaws, as her older sister, she wouldn't agree.
Avery knew that Avery would be determined about this, but she thought about Ethan's influence in the capital.
"Sister, I just got the certificate with him this morning. It's not that easy."
"What? You've already got the certificate with him?"
Hearing this, Alexis' slender eyebrows furrowed deeply.
"Even if you've got the certificate, you can still get a divorce. You're so young and beautiful, with a bright future ahead of you. You can't let that old and ugly man take advantage of you."
...
Chad received a call from Harrison Wells and immediately turned the car towards the Blackwood villa.
The number thirty million kept echoing in his mind, although it wasn't a lot for Ethan Blackwood, but Avery Wells had just gotten married to their Third Master.
(Note: The translation is a direct translation and may not reflect the literary style of the original text.)
If the thirty million dollars was not produced in time, the kidnappers would harm Avery , and it would be spread out later. Third Master would probably be labeled as someone who mistreats his wives.
In this way, no woman would be willing to be with Third Master.
In a rush, Chad arrived at the villa and, ignoring Qin's obstruction, went straight in and told everything in detail.
After finishing, he kindly reminded, "Third Master, Miss Wells has already registered with you. Do you want to save her? It's up to you."
At that time, Ethan was having a meal. When he heard the news, his hand paused for a moment. Two seconds later, he lowered his head and continued eating.
His half-intact cheek was calm, and his cold sword eyebrows were still raised, looking as if he was not affected at all.
"Third Master..." Seeing this scene, Chad became anxious. "If it's too late, what if Miss Wells is torn up by someone..."
Avery was left by Third Master and even took her to see Young Master Julian. They even registered. Wasn't it because she looked similar to that person?
Ethan still didn't speak, eating his food expressionlessly.
Seeing this, although Chad was anxious, he could only endure it.
On the side, Qin lowered his head.
"Chad stop talking. The Wells family is now just an empty shell. Harrison Wells called and said that he needed thirty million dollars. Who knows if it's true or if he's trying to extort money from the Master."
Chad ignored Qin and anxiously looked at the man who was eating, "Third Master..."
If it's true, would Ethan regret it if she gets killed?
Butler Win glared at Chad and said, "Chad, you really don't know how to behave. Can't you see that the master is already tired?"
No one noticed that the atmosphere in the restaurant was gradually becoming cold.
Two minutes later, the sound of chairs being pulled on the floor was heard "Prepare 30 million and contact Harrison Wells immediately." The man's cold and stern voice echoed heavily.
Chad heard it clearly. Ethan was going to save Avery Wells!!
He quickly said, "Okay,Third Master , I'll take care of it right away."
At this moment, Butler Qin reminded him discontentedly, "Master, 30 million is not a small amount."
"Are you teaching me how to do things?" Ethan stood up, his pitch-black deep eyes swept over Butler Qin with a faint coldness. "Butler Qin , you are just a housekeeper, don't overstep your bounds."
"I dare not." Butler Qin immediately lowered his head. Ethan Blackwood ignored Butler Qin and strode out of the restaurant, instructing Chad who followed him.
"First, contact Harrison Wells and ask him to stabilize the kidnappers' emotions. Then, contact the surveillance cameras on all the streets in New York. Any suspicious persons or vehicles should be intercepted!"
"Finally, notify the police to go to the Wells house. Before we arrive, not even a mosquito is allowed to escape!"
