Chapter 657 Callers at Midnight

Caelum wanted to avoid unnecessary violence, too. He’d preferred it if the women complied with his demand.

“No! We’re not going anywhere,” Sherry staunchly declared. She knew nothing good was going to happen if they left with these men.

“There are over 60 of us here. None of you are getting away. Don’t force me to get physical with you, or else you’re going to be in a world of pain!” Caelum threatened.

“I’ll come with you, but let the rest of them stay here, okay? This has nothing to do with them,” Sherry pleaded.

She knew she wasn’t getting out of this, but she wanted to try to save Cecilia, Miranda, and Tom from sharing her fate.

“No, Mom! You can’t leave with them!” Cecilia cried out frantically as she

clutched Sherry’s arm with a panicked expression.

“None of you are getting out of this! You’re all coming with me, including that bastard who hit the young Mr. Jessop!” Caelum declared.

It was only then that the women realized Tom wasn’t with them.

Sherry and Cecilia both silently grumbled in their hearts. Tom kept saying he would resolve this matter for them, but now that these men had come knocking, he didn’t even have the guts to confront them. Was he a coward?

They didn’t know that Tom was exhausted from his lack of sleep and didn’t hear the commotion..

Meanwhile, Caelum didn’t bother wasting his breath any longer. He signaled to his men and instructed, “Throw them into the car!”

Nearly 20 burly men immediately stormed over.

The others remained still. They didn’t need to get involved. The other men could easily handle three women by themselves.

Sherry and Cecilia instinctively stumbled backward when they saw the men charging over. Sherry was terrified, but she stood in front of Cecilia anyway.
