Chapter 72 You Protected My Daughter for Three Days, then I'll Protect You for a Lifetime
When Scarlett lowered her head to eat and stopped talking, Iwan glimpsed her deeply but didn't say anything anymore. He was sure that Lucas didn't have the guts to tell his identity to others, so Scarlett must have found it out through her analysis. But he didn't mind it. If Scarlett could find out all his hidden identities only through her analysis, then he, the Lord of the Divine Domain, would admit defeat!
"Come on, come on, come on, Iwan, I heard Jayna say that you'll take them to Cleveque City in a few days, right? I discussed it with your mother-in-law, and we decided to go, too. There's nothing to keep us in Pasoland. Come on, let's drink..." Luis said to Iwan with a broad smile.
"Yes, yes, Mr. Brown, let's drink. I give you a toast..." Iwan stopped looking at Scarlett and clinked Luis's wine glass with a smile, while Scarlett was still silent with her head down. The moment Iwan looked at her, she didn't know why she suddenly felt immense pressure. Scared, she was even more afraid to talk.
After the meal, Iwan went out to look for Emily. He drank with Luis for a long time. Now Jacey had taken Emily out to play. When he found Emily, Emily was calling someone with Jacey's mobile phone. When he went over to her, she just hung up, but her small tender face looked a little gloomy.
Iwan picked her up with a smile and said, "Emily, what's wrong? You are unhappy? Who were you calling?"
Seeing that her father asked her, she said to him hurriedly, "Dad, could you take me to look for Zora? When I was calling her, she seemed to be crying, and someone seemed to be swearing at her..."
Emily tilted her head to think about it, and then she continued to speak to Iwan, "That feeling is like, like... Oh, yes, dad, I feel that Zora seemed to be in the condition in which I was calling you for help that night..."
Iwan knitted his eyebrows deeply when hearing these words. Emily might be too young to describe it accurately, but he had found something unusual from her words.
Then he took the mobile phone from her hand and dialed the number she had just dialed. Only when the phone had rung for a long time did a little vicious voice of a man ask, "Who are you? What do you want to do by calling Zora Cliff?"
Frowning more deeply, Iwan said severely, "Who are you? Let Zora answer the call!"
The man at the other end of the line sneered twice and said in a more vicious tone, "Ha, boy, you're Zora's boyfriend, right? Okay, let me tell you. Zora owes our big brother 1,5000 dollars! Today is the day to pay off the debt! Boy, you're her boyfriend, so bring money over! Otherwise, I can't guarantee what we'll ask her to do! After all, she's so beautiful, and she's also a college student. Am I right? The bosses in big cities all like that. It's right, isn't it? Haha..."
When Iwan heard it, his eyes glistened coldly with an intention to kill. He had been a little drunk, but now he sobered immediately. He took a deep breath and slowly said, "Okay! 1,5000, right? Okay, I'll give you guys 150,000! I'll be there before 5 p.m., but from now on, if you dare to lay a finger on her, you won't get a penny!"
After Iwan finished speaking, the one called was silent for a long while. It seemed that a few people in that place seemed to be discussing something. About three minutes later, the person opened his mouth again, "Okay! Boy, I don't care who you are. If you dare to come, we dare to receive the money! Let's not meet at five. We'll give you one more hour. If we can't see the money before six, you should never dream about seeing Zora again in this life! You'll bear the consequences!"
As his heart was getting cold, Iwan sneered, "Okay!" Then he hung up.
"Iwan, what's up? What happened?" Seeing that Iwan looked unhappy, Jacey rushed over and asked.
Iwan put Emily in her arms and said, "Nothing. Don't tell your sister. You take Emily to play. I'll call someone..."
After saying that, Iwan looked at Emily and said with a warm smile, "Emily, I'll take you to Zora in a while, okay?"
Seeing her dad's face, Emily was somewhat confused. Her dad had just looked ice-cold, but now he smiled. She tilted her head to think about it for a while, but could not figure it out. But she still nodded and said, "Okay, thank you, dad. If there're bad eggs bullying Zora, you must save her for me, okay?"
