The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 1748

Jaime replied excitedly, "He said that he is willing to consider our proposal and conditions. However, he hopes that we will still meet him in person to discuss this matter further. What do you think?"

Sophie smiled in contentment.

"I think that will not be an issue. You can return his call and tell him to come to our hotel to discuss early tomorrow morning. If our discussion goes well, then w e will collaborate with him; if the discussion does not proceed smoothly, then we will just finalize the terms and conditions with Machi before signing the contract with him then." 4

"Alright!" Jaime replied enthusiastically, "I'll give him a call now.”

As soon as Jaime finished speaking, four ninjas dressed in black suddenly jumped down from the hotel corridor's ceiling! 4

Before Sophie and Jaime could even react, both of them had already been subdued by the other party. 4

Sophie exclaimed in horror, "Who are you?!"

One of the masked ninjas replied coldly, "Miss Schulz, I am Mr. Ito’s subordinate. I'm here to make you pay and suffer for what you've done!" "What?!" Both Sophie and Jaime were dumbfounded.

Sophie was horrified as she thought to herself: 'Ito Yahiko had just called my brother to tell him that h e wanted to renegotiate and discuss the collaboration matter with us. So, why would he send a group of ninjas to attack us in a blink of an eye?' 6

'Could it be that he had never intended to renegotiate with us, but he was simply planning to kidnap us?’

Sophie hurriedly blurted out, "Sir, could there possibly be any misunderstanding in this matter? We are currently arranging for a renegotiation and discussion meeting with Mr. Ito right now. What’s going on with you guys?"

There was a grim smile on the man's face as he said, " Miss Schulz, you should only ask us the essential questions. Please obey and come with us. We will not take your lives, but if the both of you try to resist or resort to some sort of tricks, then I am sorry, but the both of you will have to die here in Japan!” 5

Sophie realized that something had gone wrong at this point, and she hysterically continued, "Sir, if this i s about money, then you can just give us a price. You can just name us any amount. No matter who you are working for, I will be willing to pay you twice, thrice, o r even four times the amount that the other party is paying you!" 3

The man sneered before replying, "I am sorry, but we, ninjas, have already prioritized credibility. It’s time for both of you to suffer your grievances." 7

The moment he finished his words, he immediately glanced at the two other men beside him.
