Chapter 48 You’ll Have to Die Today
Dmitri stood at the end of the corridor, a cold look on his face.
This woman brought disaster to the Yates Family four years ago, and now, four years later, she was still constantly causing harm to the family. Therefore, it was reasonable for his mother to teach this woman a lesson.
It shouldn’t be a problem to let his mother fight back a little. He hoped that after this incident, this woman would learn to be nicer instead of going against his mother all the time.
In the end, Dmitri turned around and left right away, but it was then that he saw four strong men walking in his direction.
“What a nice job we landed! The employer said that this woman is Seaview City’s Aphrodite, and countless rich young men have failed to get her. But we’re lucky enough to have her fall right into our laps…”
Dmitri immediately stopped in his tracks before he raised his head to look at the four men walking toward him.
They were all at least 6 feet tall, and every single one of them looked vicious, with evil gleams in their eyes.
The few men walked into the office. No matter what they were doing, it definitely wasn’t good news to Rachel.
The four men didn’t even notice the child standing in the corner as they continued their discussions in whispers.
“I saw the woman at the venue just now. She has really long legs and a large chest. It must feel awesome—”
“Quit daydreaming. Our main mission is to kill her, or we wouldn’t get the remaining 5 million.”
“We just have to kill a woman. How hard can it be? Anyway, I’ll have some fun before we kill her.”
The look in Dmitri’s eyes turned cold in an instant.
Mom actually wants to kill Rachel!
No matter what, Rachel was still his mother’s sister by blood. How could his mother be so cruel?
Dmitri took a step backward, then whipped out his phone and dialed a number. Rachel sat in the meeting room, bored as she scrolled through the news on her phone.
Her speech at the venue just now was already on the news.
Sinclair Group’s latest product didn’t garner too much attention. Instead, the netizens were more interested in the fact that she had become the third-largest shareholder of Yates Corporation.
‘Who said that the mother-daughter duo of the Yates Family were vicious? Come out and get walloped!’
‘Yeah! If they were really that vicious, how could they give out half of their shares? If it were me, I wouldn’t let go of anything I’ve already had my hands on.’
‘Are you blind? Read the details properly, please. Shirley’s shares were originally meant for Rachel in the first place, and now that Rachel was back, Shirley only gave her half of her rightful shares. Also, Shirley is still holding on to her position as the heiress! 25% of the shares are worth more than 1 billion, and all the money your ancestors earned wouldn’t even total up to that much!’
‘So Rachel is still the victim here. She was forced to fake her death for four years, and she can’t even get her things back after she returns! I heard that those shares were property willed to Rachel by her biological mother, but they fell into her stepmother’s hands instead. Even I feel worried about her.’
‘If Shirley still has her conscience, she should give up all the shares she holds!’
‘Too bad she doesn’t have any!’
As Rachel read the online comments, the corners of her mouth turned up into a smile. Now, even if Shirley played victim, it wouldn’t help her one bit.
One day, she would get Shirley to return the inheritance her mother left behind.
Just then, a knock sounded on the door of the meeting room, after which Rachel put away her phone and said calmly, “Come in.”
Four muscular men walked in.
She frowned and was about to ask what was happening when the last man to enter closed the door behind him.
The four men were half surrounding her as they walked nearer.
Rachel had always been a sensitive person, so she felt she must have accidentally fallen into a trap.
She stood up warily, tightening her grip on the glass she was holding.
“Rachel Yates, yes?” the muscular man in the lead asked with an evil smile on his face.
“Who are you? What business do you have with me?”
Rachel continued backing away discreetly as the four men inched closer. “I heard you’re Seaview City’s Aphrodite, Miss Yates. We’re here to see for ourselves how you got that title.”
The man in front reached out and grabbed Rachel’s wrist, but she was prepared. With a loud crash, she broke the glass in her hand and slashed the man’s wrist with a shard.
“You b*tch, how dare you play tricks on me!” The muscular man was furious as he dashed over.
Rachel grabbed his arm and threw him over her shoulder. The man was simply too heavy, probably weighing about 200 pounds. Hence, she almost used up all her energy to throw the man to the ground.
“Dang, this woman can actually put up a fight!”
The remaining three men exchanged glances and sneered in secret. It was a good thing they came prepared.
As he spoke, the man standing at the back fished out a vial of powder from his pocket, and while Rachel wasn’t looking, he scattered some of the powder in her direction.
Rachel could only manage to smell a suspicious fragrance.
Before she could react, her legs gave way, and she began to feel dizzy.
“Hah, you’re a sly one, but too bad you’re up against us.”
The man who was thrown to the ground got on his feet again, sneering as he walked closer to Rachel.
Rachel held her breath as she continued to back away.
The man took a quick step forward and gripped her chin, grinning as he spoke. “We wanted to let you have some fun, but you’re such a party pooper, so we’ll have to make you suffer a couple of times. A b*tch like you must have slept with countless men before, so just comply like a good girl, or you’ll wish you were dead!”
Instantly, the look in Rachel’s eyes turned cold. She gathered all her strength on her knee, then kneed him mercilessly.
Followed by a painful cry, the four men finally realized that Rachel wasn’t someone they could have their way with.
It was simply impossible for this woman to stay docile!
They exchanged glances and decided not to fool around anymore, for they would take this woman away and get their job done!
Unfortunately, Rachel’s responses were getting seriously slow by then.
She felt that she might just topple over the next second.
No, I can’t let this happen.
Casper and Olivia are still waiting for me, so I mustn’t get destroyed so easily.
“Shirley h-hired you, didn’t she…” She was stumbling over her words as soon as she began speaking. Holding on to her labored breaths, she continued, “How much did she pay you? I-I’ll give you ten times the amount!”
“We might have agreed to a negotiation if you were more obedient, but you’re too arrogant, so you’ll have to die today!”
The men walked closer to her, angry with an obvious intent to kill.
Rachel’s heart gradually sank.
She thought that Shirley wanted to get someone to destroy her, just like five years ago, when Shirley got a man to sleep with her.
She didn’t expect that Shirley would want her dead instead.
Someone had grabbed her arms, and a piece of cloth was stuffed inside her mouth. Then, a hat was placed on top of her.
Right after that, they produced a wheelchair out of nowhere and forced her to sit in the wheelchair.
The drug was working, and she couldn’t gather any strength to fight back.
She was pushed out of the building like a disabled person, and the security guards would probably let them pass.
From that moment onward, Rachel was beginning to taste real despair.
