Dodging sideways out of Wendy's reach, Arielle uttered a chuckle and recited the words shown on the screen, “Insufficient balance?”
Wendy's face instantly turned red as a fire truck. “You saw wrongly! Now, give my phone back to me!”
Arielle flicked her wrist, tossing the phone back to her.
She gazed at Wendy with a hint of amusement in her eyes. “Fifteen million's hardly a small amount, Wendy Greene. I can't let you go just like that. Write me an IOU!”
The onlookers chimed in as well, “Yeah!
Go on, write her an IOU!”
“You...” Wendy clenched her teeth forcefully, both furious and bemused at the same time.
How could I possibly not have enough
balance?
Remembering how her card and her mother's were all unusable earlier, she only felt more stumped than ever.
However, at that moment, she had no choice other than to succumb to the crowd's pressure and write the IOU as per their demands.
In her heart, she kept reminding herself not to act rashly again. After all, she was going to send a killer after Arie He as soon as she got out of this auditorium. There was no need to act out on her anger at the moment.
With that thought in mind, she took a deep breath and slowly regained her selfcontrol.
After writing the IOU, she glanced toward Cecilia, who was still held back by the Specialized Forces, and strode toward them with quick steps. “I've written the IOU. Now, let my mother go!”
The men from the Specialized Forces released her expressionlessly.
Cecilia was, in fact, mad with fury.
However, since those men were from the Specialized Forces, she did not dare to reprimand them either.
She glanced at Wendy. As their gazes met, they were both silently thinking the same thought.
How dare that woman embarrass us like this!
Once we walk out of here, we're going to get our revenge, and she will pay for all this with her life!
“Let's go!” said Cecilia, pulling Wendy with her while dialing Daniel's number with her other hand.
