Sweetheart, Do You Still Love Me?

Chapter 556 Took His Own Life

"As long as I promise you, you'll let her go, right?"

Arthur nodded, appearing honest and trustworthy. "Of course. As long as you're willing to promise me, I will listen to you and release her."

"Then let me take you upstairs to sign the contract."

"Why are we going upstairs to sign the contract? Just print out the contract and bring it down." Arthur became impatient and his tone was aggressive with a hint of anger.

Everyone did not notice that Jethro, who was being low-key, had quietly moved behind him, waiting for an opportunity to strike. Callum pretended not to notice and continued to calmly ask him, "Can we negotiate? You release her first, and then I will go to the company to give you the transfer of shares contract."

"Why should I trust you? What if you go back on your word after I release her?" Arthur was not stupid and knew that this was just a trick to deceive him.

"But the transfer of the CEO position is not that easy; it requires the entire Winthrop Family to vote and decide."

Arthur didn't care about those things, and his smile was vicious as he said, "That's your own business. As the CEO, I'm sure you're smart and can definitely make these things happen."

Just as he finished speaking, Jethro, who had been silent, suddenly rushed forward, aiming to knock the knife out of Arthur's hand. Even though Arthur's reaction was fast, he was still one step too slow. He watched the knife fall to the ground and was momentarily distracted. At that moment, Elspeth bent her arm and used her elbow to hit him hard in the abdomen. This was one of the most vulnerable parts of the human body, which her self-defense trainer had emphasized before.

He was determined not to be careless again and positioned himself protectively in front of Elspeth. Meanwhile, Jethro had already withdrawn, and the rest of the group watched Arthur's contorted expression. All
