Madam Escaped Again, Sir (Lillian Hawkins and Eric Walker) novel Chapter 436

Great. This is great! Toby didn’t agree to partner up with Declan!

No one knew how terrified she was that Toby might agree to partner up. After all, it wasn’t easy to refuse two Westsanshire treaty ports. Fortunately, he didn’t let Sonia down in the end.

“Sure, sure. How noble of you, President Fuller.” Declan giggled before he started clapping out of the blue. “Still, aren’t you afraid that I might capture you along? After all, our discussion just fell through. I’m not willing to let her go, and you definitely won’t let me off the hook, so why don’t I just kill all three of you to spare me all the troubles?”

Faced with the threat, Sonia had an immediate change in expression. “Mm, mm, mm\” She shook her head almost violently to get her message across.

No! You have to leave now! That was what she wanted to tell Toby.

Although Sonia really wanted Toby to rescue her, she still remembered Declan mentioning that Toby was alone. Under this circumstance, it was impossible for him to rescue her. Right now, she’d rather Toby ditch her and leave when he still could.

Even though Sonia had no feelings toward Toby, she didn’t want him to die for her. Surely, she would suffer from the guilt for the rest of her life, knowing he died because of her.

Noticing Sonia’s agitated manner, Toby had his eyes softened up as he could guess what she was trying to say.

However, his gaze reverted back to his usual cold ones as he stared at Declan. “You’re afraid of killing me!”

He was filled with absolute confidence as he claimed, “Not only that! You might even be afraid of capturing me.”

Right then, Declan’s expression changed, and even Sonia quietened down as well. What does he mean? Why did Toby say that Declan won’t dare to capture him or kill him?

While Sonia was pondering about it, Declan broke the silence. “What makes you think that I’m afraid, President Fuller?” His fists flinched a little, and his lips twitched before his cold voice rang out.

“Because I understand what kind of a person you are,” Toby pursed his lips and answered. “Since you’re an illegitimate son, you’re more ambiguous than any other people, and that’s why you’re ruthless enough to rise from the other illegitimate children. Nevertheless, you’re a coward who’s afraid of death at the same time.”

Declan’s pupils constricted when he heard the words ‘afraid of death’.

However, Toby looked as if he hadn’t noticed it and continued speaking, “That’s because you’ll lose everything if you die. You know clearly that the Fuller Family wouldn’t ever forgive you if you try to capture or kill me and will do everything they can to destroy you while you can’t do anything to defend yourself. If it weren’t so, you would have already gotten your men to capture me when I showed up just now.”

At this moment, Declan was rendered speechless as his expression changed while he glared at Toby intently. Right then, Sonia realized that Toby was right. That solved her question of why Declan didn’t capture Toby when Toby showed up, and why Toby was courageous enough to show up on his own. So that’s why.

“So, can you return Sonia to me now?” Toby started walking forward. “I’ll repeat myself. Hand her back to me, and I’ll let you guys go for now. Who you guys want to kill are none of my business, and I won’t stop you. My revenge on you guys won’t be too harsh, and I won’t take your lives.”

“Don’t come near me!” Declan suddenly roared when he saw Toby inching closer to him.

Pausing for a moment, Toby composed himself before heading forward again.

Upon seeing that Toby wasn’t listening, Declan gritted his teeth as a twisted look took over his delicate-looking face.

Right then, his man couldn’t help but ask, “Young Master Declan, what should we do? Should we return her to him? If that’s impossible, why don’t we capture him without injuring him and only let him off when our ride is here?”
