Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 2501

At Jacob’s order, the two men beside him came up to grab me. I hurriedly stopped them. “Wait. Why do you want to kidnap me, Chairman March?”

The corners of his mouth curved as he laughed. “That old man stole so many of my businesses. Shouldn’t I bring you with me to get back at him?”

“Bring me with you to get back at him?” I lowered my head and laughed lightly. “What role do I have to play? You think too highly of me. I recently just refused their offer to bring me back into the family. Don’t you think bringing me there this time will only agitate them even more?”

Hearing this, Jacob looked me over, surprise filling his face. “You refused to go back to the Yards? This is something new. News of the Yards in search of their granddaughter has spread over the years. So many people have brought their own children to the family to look for that old man just because they wanted to make a fortune. Yet, you actually rejected him. How refreshing.”

He was smiling when he spoke. It was obvious he did not believe what I said.

“You don’t have to believe me, Chairman March. You’ll just be taking me to the Yard household for a stroll anyway. I was just there yesterday, so my guess is Old Master’s Yard’s anger hasn’t yet completely dissipated. If he robs you of some more of your businesses in a fit of anger, that's not my problem.”

I said all this lightly and actually managed to trick Jacob.

I thought this would be the end of it, but unexpectedly, one of his subordinates suddenly spoke up, “Boss, don't be fooled by this little girl. Rumor has it she’s intelligent and adaptable. She’s probably trying to get away.”

Goodness, who said that? As if I was smart.

Biting my lower lip, I thought about how this issue was now unresolved and that Jacob was probably going to proceed with kidnapping me.

Just as I thought, Jacob immediately instructed his people to grab me the moment his subordinate said that. “Get her into the car. We’re going to the Yard household together.”

“I will not!”

“Hah, you don’t have a choice. Take her away!” Jacob waved his hand, and two men pulled me to their car.

I struggled hard. “Isn’t this kidnapping? I can report you to the police.”

“Do you still think you have a chance to call the police?”

“I already called the police when I was in the car. They probably have my location now and will be arriving soon. If you let me go now, I won't report you when the police come.”

Truthfully, I had no idea if the police had gotten my location, but I could only believe that they had.

Unsurprisingly, Jacob hesitated when he heard I had called the police.

“Look in her car,” he instructed another subordinate of his.

That person came to my front and fished out the keys from my pocket. Pressing the sensor button, the car was unlocked and he went searching for my phone. My phone was flipped upside down in the passenger seat, and he very quickly saw it.

He brought the phone over and revealed that a call was in progress. “Boss, she really did call the police.”

“End it immediately.”

“Yes.”

He immediately ended the call. I smiled and said, “It’s a little too late to end it now. They’ll be here soon. Why don’t you guys let me go and leave this place quickly if you don’t want anything to happen?”

Jacob walked in front of me and pointed at me. “I loathe threats. You think I’m afraid of the police? Take her away!

“I’ve been to the police station multiple times. I’m not afraid of the police.”

Hearing Jacob mutter to himself, I sighed.

Just when they were about to shove me into the car, two other cars appeared and stopped at the entrance of the road.

Was it him?

The man I met at the Hanging Gardens?

He lead some people and came toward me. Once in front of us, he lowered his sunglasses. “Let her go.”

Jacob looked at the man, disdain coloring his face. “And just who are you?”
