Chapter 607 Take It All

Diego panted with excitement.

He glanced back at the group standing outside the door and said to Laura in an undertone, "You'll keep your promise, right? Don't you dare trick me!"

Laura gave a cold laugh and said, "Why would I trick you? You know where I live. I can't escape from you anyway."

As expected, Diego was convinced as soon as she said that.

He pondered, "This makes sense. Legally, I'm her stepfather. She ought to provide for me.

"If she refuses, I can sue her for abandonment."

Diego had been manipulating Laura and her mother for many years. He had grown used to their obedience.

Therefore, he wasn't on high alert for them.

Even so, just to be safe, he decided to seize more leverage.

"How about this? You tell me where your mother is. After I verify everything, I'll let you go immediately."

Laura's face instantly turned cold.

"Diego, this is between us. Leave my mother out of this!"

Diego sneered.

"Leave her out of this? Like that's possible! She's your mother and my wife. Whatever concerns you and me also concern her. Plus, I know you're no longer that little girl you were. Don't you try to fool me. "Didn't you just hook up with a rich man? You're much more cunning now. If you refuse to give me money after I set you free, I can't really do anything to hurt you, can I? Or your sugar daddy will go after me. "But that's not the case with your mother. We're a lawful married couple. Though it may not be proper to scold or hit her, I can make love to her, can't I? But if something went wrong with her newly planted hear during our lovemaking process and gave her a poor recovery, I wouldn't be the one to blame, because it's not something that I can control.

"In that case, the court wouldn't hold me liable, would it? Thus, you'd better tell me her whereabouts. This way, I'll be relieved, and so will you. Then, we can finally make a deal. You'll give me the money at the same time when I give you freedom. Isn't that perfect?"

Laura quivered with fury.

She knew Diego was brazen, but she didn't expect him to be this shameless.

Gritting her teeth and staring coldly at him, she bellowed word by word, "You wish!"

Seeing her attitude, Diego's face turned icy cold in an instant.

"That's to say, you were trying to trick me, am I right? Because this is a trap, you still can't risk telling me where your mother is. Laura Davies, do you really think I'm an idiot?"

As he said this, he abruptly reached out and clamped a hand over Laura's chin.

Laura felt that the bones in her chin were about to be crushed. Her head was jerked upward by Diego's hand.

At this precise moment, someone asked from outside, "Hey, did she cough up the information?"

Diego looked over his shoulder at that group. Before he could say anything, Laura clenched her teeth and said under her breath, "It's in my apartment."

Diego was taken aback and turned his head back to look at Laura.

"What did you say?"

"I mean, the check is in my place. I certainly wouldn't carry a big fat check around. If you want it, take me home to get it."

Diego shuddered in exultation.

He let go of Laura's chin, look back, and shouted, "Almost."

Then, he looked back at Laura and asked, "You're not tricking me this time?"

As Diego finally removed his hand, the pain in Laura's chin appeased.

She took several deep breaths before answering, "I'm not, but you have to bring me with you. Because you can't get into my place without me." Diego showed a crooked smile.

"You're wrong about that. Did you forget how I entered your apartment last time?"

But Laura smiled, too.

"Am I really wrong? You've barged into my place before. Do you think I'll continue to live there like a moron?"

Diego was stunned.

Laura went on. "As you said, I'm a big star now. I'm rich, and I've hooked up with a rich man. Of course, I wouldn't continue to stay in that cramped apartment.

"To tell you the truth, that little apartment was just a cover-up I prepared to lead you on."

"I usually stay in hotels when I have to work on the set. You couldn't know how many days I really lived in that apartment. So, I went there every once in a while, so that you would think that was my residence." "This way, you wouldn't go look for my real home. In fact, I moved out a long time ago. Now, I'm living in a fancy villa now."

"There is not only that check but many jewels and antiques I've collected over the years in that villa. As long as you let me go, I swear I will give them all to you. What do you say?"

Diego's eyes became zealous at once.

"Are you serious? Jewels and antiques?"

"Certainly. You've held me hostage. Why would I lie to you?"

Diego swallowed. Laura gazed at him, waiting for his reply with patience.

She knew that given how greedy Diego was, he would on no account miss an opportunity to earn such a big fortune now that he had learned about it.

Sure enough, seconds later, Diego gritted his teeth and said, "OK. I can let you go, only if I get the things!"

A smile slowly climbed onto Laura's slips, "Deal."

"Deal."

After they made a pact, Diego went out.

Those people immediately asked if he had found out where the money was.

He merely sneered and said, "That girl's mouth is really tight. Let's starve her this evening and ask her again later."

A man in the group pulled a long face at once. He threw a cold look at Laura and mumbled that he would teach her a lesson.

As he spoke, he walked toward Laura while unbuttoning his shirt.

Seeing this, Diego frowned, then reached out to stop him with a fawning smile on his face.

"Gee, no need to do that. We haven't had the money yet. This girl has a temper. Who knows what she would do if you cornered her? If she's dead, we will lose both the money and our leverage. Just wait for me to prise the whereabouts of the money out of her tonight. Then, you can do whatever you want to her. I promise."

Hearing this, the man stopped in his tracks and banished the thought of touching her right away.

The tattooed guy laughed, then said, "Diego, never knew you could be so merciless. She's your stepdaughter after all! You wouldn't feel sorry for her if she was destroyed by us?"

Diego narrowed his eyes, took a cigarette from that man, and lit it. Smiling, he said, "Stepdaughter? I shouldn't have taken her in at all. I supported her for over a decade. But the moment she became successful, she tried to get rid of me, so why would I care about her at all?"

That man was relieved after hearing this remark. He placed a hand on Diego's shoulder and continued to chat and laugh with him.
