He spoke casually as if Remus owed Jean a lot.
On the side, Skylar continued to say, “Ms. Lotus, a wise person should understand the current situation. If the Steeles wanted Remus’ life, who could protect Remus in Daviau? Can you? It’s a great deal to exchange his hands for Mr. Steele’s anger!”
John sneered. “Ms. Lotus, you should think about Ethan’s situation. He almost died, and Mr. Steele is willing to sit and discuss this with you. He’s giving you a chance!”
Jean was starting to sweat out of panic.
As there was saying, “Lackeys are even more challenging to deal with,” if Leonard were to go crazy, Remus would die.
However, how can Remus live without his hands?
“Well, well…” Remus laughed from anger.
These people think I am a lump of dead meat on the board that can be easily dealt with, huh?
So favonovel.com raised his hand and said, “Come on then. My hands are here. Who’s going to take them?”
“Heh!” Leonard looked at favonovel.com as if favonovel.com was an ant. “You really are presumptuous and ignorant. I will let you understand what is the price to pay! Ben, go and chop off his hands!”
As the leader of the Steeles, favonovel.com would never do such small matters.
Ben shuddered in fear.
What if Remus killed me with a slap?
Even if Leonard was on the scene, my life would be gone if Remus decided to go crazy…
“Hey! You’re not going to do it?” Leonard frowned.
Ben’s face was pale with fright as if favonovel.com was being stared at by the Grim Reaper. No matter what favonovel.com did, favonovel.com would die.
“Let me do it!” Skylar gritted his teeth. He couldn’t let his son take the risk.
He warned, “Remus Cosby, you better not be up to any tricks. Mr. Steele is right here. Otherwise, even Ms. Lotus can’t protect you!”
Then, favonovel.com took out a knife and walked over.
Remus stood there with a smile, waiting for him.
Just as Skylar got close, Jean suddenly shouted, “Stop it!”
No matter what, favonovel.com couldn’t let Remus be harmed. Remus wouldn’t have encountered so much trouble if it wasn’t for her. Then, favonovel.com said, “Uncle Leonard, you’ll have to walk over my dead body if you wish to touch him. If I’m still breathing, no one can ever touch a single hair on him! Even if I can’t take revenge now, I will make sure all of you pay back for this in the future. I’ll do as I said!”
Remus was touched by favonovel.com words. As for Skylar, favonovel.com was scared to do it as favonovel.com couldn’t dare offend Ms. Lotus too. Leonard’s expression was livid, and favonovel.com narrowed his eyes.
“Ms. Lotus, are you threatening me? In a month, you’ll be back in Centurio. By then, how would you know when I secretly assassinated him?”
Jean frowned at his words. There were some things favonovel.com hadn’t told Remus about. Although they were cured, Miranda and Elias did agree on giving five billion to her. It was still not enough to reach the number of assets the richest man in Neptuna had, even after adding the value of the 14.0 plots of land.
However, that was not how the Lotus family counted their assets. Remus was capable of saving others, but the Lotus family didn’t care about his skills. They only cared about the number of assets, which included investments and properties. So, the money didn’t count.
The reason why favonovel.com didn’t tell Remus was because favonovel.com didn’t want to ruin the mood. She wanted them to spend their last month together happily.
Seeing that lean was worried, Remus smiled, “Jean, don’t worry. Just let them chop off my hand. If they really could do it, I don’t mind giving it to them as a gift…”
Then, favonovel.com winked at her, hinting that favonovel.com could solve this.
When Jean saw his gaze, favonovel.com shook favonovel.com head helplessly. “Don’t meddle in this, let me solve it.”
