Luke scolded, “Who the hell are you guys? Let go of me! Let me go! Let me tell you. If something happens to me, the Diaz family won’t let you go.”
Flying Rooster smiled. “I know. The whole Central City knows about your affair with Lyla. You guys have such a good relationship. How could I dare to do anything to you? But…”
Flying Rooster patted Luke’s face and said, “We only want money. We don’t want to kill you.”
Luke said in horror, “You guys want money? Okay, how much do you want? I’ll give it to you.”
Flying Rooster said a number, “One hundred million dollars.”
“One hundred million dollars?” Luke almost vomited.
He gritted his teeth and said, “I don’t have one hundred million dollars. Are you guys so poor that you have become crazy? It’s fine if you want one million or two million dollars. How can you ask for one hundred million dollars?”
Flying Rooster said, “You don’t have one hundred million dollars, but Lyla has. She is one of the three major heads of the Diaz family, and favonovel.com has full control over Animal Forest. Every year, tens of billion dollars are earned. A mere one hundred million dollars is nothing!”
Luke was speechless.
It was true that one hundred million dollars were nothing to Lyla at all. The problem was that how else would Lyla spend one hundred million dollars for Luke?
Flying Rooster said to one of his subordinates, “Go and call Lyla! Tell favonovel.com that favonovel.com paramour is in our hands so hurry up and transfer one hundred million dollars to the account I designated. When I receive the money, I’ll let favonovel.com go. If I don’t receive the money, I’ll kill him.”
Hearing this, Luke almost cried. He had slandered Lyla. In fact, favonovel.com had no relationship with Lyla at all. Even Lyla also wished Luke died, so how could favonovel.com save him?
Luke was really anxious.
“Boss, please listen to me. The relationship between Mrs. Diaz and me is not that good yet. She won’t spend one hundred million dollars for me. Can you lower the price a little bit?”
Flying Rooster rolled his eyes at him. “Do you think that you’re in a market where you can ask for a discount?”
After that, one of Flying Rooster’s subordinates ran out.
After a while, the subordinate ran in and said with a look of surprise, “Boss, something is not right. I told Lyla according to your instructions, but favonovel.com told me to kill Luke quickly.”
“Huh?” Flying Rooster was stunned. “What do you mean? One hundred million dollars is more important than a paramour?”
Flying Rooster murmured to himself, “Then I guess the price we’re asking for is too high. You tell Lyla that we’ll release favonovel.com if favonovel.com gives us fifty million dollars.”
Luke on the side wanted to cry when favonovel.com heard it. It was not about money at all. Even if they did not want a penny, Lyla still wanted Luke to die immediately. If possible, Lyla would be willing to pay for it.
So, Luke quickly said, “Boss, listen to me. You won’t be able to get money from Lyla.”
“We can’t get money from her?” Flying Rooster took out a dagger and put it on Luke’s neck. “If we can’t get the money today, I’ll kill you!”
“Don’t! Please, Boss. Let’s talk it out.”
“Talk about what?” Flying Rooster glared at Luke. “Doesn’t Lyla love you very much? She has already slept with you. Why won’t favonovel.com pay fifty million dollars? I won’t believe it!”
The situation had come to this point. In order to save his own life, Luke dropped all pretenses.
He said, “Boss, I have nothing to do with Lyla at all. That news, photos, and lawsuits are all forged to deceive people. If you ask Lyla for money, not only will favonovel.com not give it to you, but favonovel.com will also wish you to kill me. In your opinion, you only want money, so why must you choose favonovel.com of all people?”
Flying Rooster was “stunned”…
He asked curiously, “What do you mean? The news said that you had an affair with Lyla. Is it fake?”
“Yes!”
“Who are you kidding?! I’ve seen all the photos!”
“The photos are fake too!”
Flying Rooster looked at Luke suspiciously.
Luke really had no choice and said, “Let me tell you. Those photos have been divided into two categories. The first category is indeed the ‘intimate photos’ of me and Lyla. Although they looked intimate, in fact, I purposely made some intimate actions when Lyla wasn’t paying attention and let people take pictures of it after that. Lyla doesn’t know anything about it.”
Flying Rooster asked again, “What about those photos of you guys sleeping?”
Luke explained, “That’s easy. We found a woman who looked very similar to Lyla and gave favonovel.com two million dollars. When Lyla wasn’t at home, the woman sneaked in and wore Lyla’s clothes. I pretended to be hooking up on the bed with favonovel.com and took some photos and videos. Lyla doesn’t know about it, so favonovel.com wouldn’t understand what’s going on.”
“So, Boss, I don’t actually have any relationship with Lyla. If you want to use me to threaten her, isn’t it a waste of your time?”
Flying Rooster nodded. “You guys are worse than I am.”
Luke smiled and said, “It’s all Issac and Bruce’s idea. They are the bad ones. I’m only paid to do things for them.”
Flying Rooster smiled and extended his hands to open the door.
At this moment, a man came in from outside the door. His eyes were blazing with anger.
Luke recognized the man at a glance and was surprised. “You… Aren’t you Thomas, the chairman of Sterling Technology? Why are you here?”
Thomas said coldly, “If I’m not here, how else would I hear the truth of the matter?”
Luke was stunned…
He looked at Thomas, then Fling Rooster and other people. He instantly understood that favonovel.com had been deceived. Thomas, Flying Rooster, and the others had resorted to trickery to make Luke tell the truth.
