Chapter 201

Just then, Macro’s voice came through the line, brash and unfiltered, “Hey, Mr. Casalini, this Theodore guy is such a cryorary Do you think he can handle my little experiment?”

Richard’s eyes turned cold, narrowing with a hint of danger.

Theodore, who had been begging Richard for help just moments ago, exploded in anger, “Who are you calling a crybaby, you insensitive jerk?”

Macro was confused, but he still replied, “I’m talking about you, man”

Without warning, Macro pressed the scalpel against Theodore’s neck and glanced at Richard on the phone. “Mr. Casalini, shall we start with his carotid artery?”

Stephanie’s heart skipped a beat. The carotid artery–that was a death threat if she ever heard one.

Richard’s voice was chillingly calm. “Do you really think Theodore matters to me?”

Theodore cried, “No, Richard-”

“Forget it. Kill him if you want. He means nothing to me. But what about Stephanie? She’s so delicate. Have you thought about that, Sebastian?

“I’m not as gentle as you. If she gets hurt or looks a little worse for wear, don’t blame me,” Richard said, his tone dripping with malice.

Macro’s response was swift. “Fine. I’ll just kill him now.”

The scalpel sliced into Theodore’s neck, and he let out a scream of agony, trying to grab the scalpel from Macro. In an instant, they were locked in a brutal fight.

Meanwhile, Stephanie grabbed Richard’s wrist and bit down hard, her teeth sinking into his flesh.

Richard hissed in pain. “Ugh! Stephanie, bite me again?”

The situation on both ends of the call spiraled into chaos.

Macro roared, “Theodore, you piece of trash. I’m going to make you pay!”

Richard shouted, “Stephanie, you crazy woman! Let go of me.”

Earlier, she had hit him with a steel showerhead, and now she was biting him. Richard’s head was still ringing from the impact, and he couldn’t believe she was still going at him.

Stephanie had no intention of letting go. She had finally gotten the upper hand, and she wasn’t about to let it go.

There was a loud bang from the other end of the line, followed by a brief, eerie silence.

For a moment, he forgot the pain, but then he
