Super Mommy and Her Triplets

Chapter 688 You Do Not Love Me Anymore

In the study, Zeke was on a call with Sofie.

“Mr. Shurmer, we're all smart people here. Your intentions are clear, so I'm sure there's no need for me to say anything more. Besides, I think you might've guessed why I'm calling you today.”

Zeke stared blankly into space as he replied, “Of course. My father is already in your hands. What else can I say or do? Go ahead and name your terms.”

Sofie laughed boisterously upon hearing the man's response. “I like your straightforwardness, Mr. Shurmer. I wouldn't waste too much time or energy talking to you. Well, then I want you to let my daughter and me leave Hallsbay, and I'll promise to keep your father safe. Otherwise, I'll drag you to hell with us even if we have to die.”

Zeke sneered. “Of course. That is also well within my range of tolerance. After all, the leverage you have is something that I cannot ignore. Sure, let's make a deal according to your conditions, Ms. Carr. I'll let you leave, and you'll guarantee my father's safety. Let me know how you'll like to go about this. I'll do my best to cooperate with you.”

Sofie suddenly fell silent.

Zeke was not in a rush. He knew that she must have other requests, so he waited patiently.

After a minute of silence, Sofie's voice rang from the phone's speakers. “I want to save one more person. I wonder if you'll agree, Mr. Shurmer?”

Zeke furrowed his eyebrows. Through clenched teeth, he spat, “Who?”

“It's Leo's daughter, Yvette. As long as you can persuade Artemis to let go of her and send her abroad safely, I'll go through with this deal of ours.”

Zeke could not help but chuckle. “It's already considered a win for you to exchange my father's life for yours and your daughter's. You really know how to push your luck. Ms. Carr, deals can't be made like this.”

“Are you saying that you won't agree to it, Mr. Shurmer?”
