Chapter 276
After a brief silence, Leroy finally steeled himself.
“Alright. I’ll do as you say.
Sigwald smiled viciously and said, “Leroy, you better hurry up. It won’t be easy to find another good opportunity like this next time.”
“Got it.”
Once he ended the call, Sigwald put down the phone with a ruthless expression.
If Silvia had not messed with his personal gain, he would not have resorted to this to get rid of her. It was her fault for meddling too much!
At 3 p.m., Joe rushed into Silvia’s office in a panic.
“Miss Pond, there’s a crazy person downstairs with a bomb, and he wants to see you!”
She immediately stood up. As she headed out, she asked, “What happened? Have you identified the person?”
“Not yet. Miss Pond, it’s dangerous for you to go down right now. I’ve called the police, sol let’s wait until they arrive.”
Silvia frowned. “No, it’ll be too late by the time the police get here. How’s the receptionist ?” ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
“He’s taken the receptionist hostage…”
Anger flashed in her eyes, and she reprimanded him, “Why didn’t you inform me sooner?!”
“I didn’t have the chance…”
“Alright. I’ll go down and take a look. Just wait here.”
“I’ll go down with you.”
She did not say anything else. They took the elevator to the first floor, and Silvia was surprised to see Dulcie.
“What are you doing here? It’s dangerous! You should go upstairs!”
When Leroy spotted Silvia, he glared at her viciously and became agitated.
“You must be Silvia Pond! If you hadn’t persuaded Dulcie to ignore me, the debt collectors wouldn’t have tried to break my legs! I won’t let you off the hook!”
Dulcie looked at Leroy angrily “Dad, are you crazy?! Do you realize that you’re committing a crime right now?!”
Leroy sneered and fearlessly said, “Dulcie, I’ve worked hard to raise you, and all I’m asking for is a little money. Yet, you’ve turned me away. But I’m not here to settle the score with you today. I’m here for Silvia Pond, so go away!”
The receptionist was on the verge of fainting as Leroy was holding her hostage. Seeing how terrified she was, Silvia calmly asked, “What do you
want?”
“What do I want?! I want you to die!”

Silvia’s eyes were cold. “If it’s me you’re after, don’t involve the innocent. Release the hostage, and I’ll take her place.”
She did not know that someone had recorded the incident and posted it online. The video instantly became viral.
Over in Remus Corporation, as soon as Curtis learned that Leroy had gone to MY Corporation with a bomb, he immediately informed Neil.
Neil panicked and became angry when he saw Silvia offer herself up as a hostage in the video. He quickly stood up and said, “Head to MY Corporation!”
He tried calling her, but she declined the call after a few rings. His hands trembled as he held his phone, and he quickly sent her a few messages.
[Silvia, don’t volunteer as a hostage!]
[The bomb on that person is real! You’ll die!]
[Reply!]
Despite sending more than a dozen messages, Neil did not receive any reply. Meanwhile, Leroy had agreed to let Silvia replace the receptionist.
“I’m warning you. Don’t pull any tricks, or else, I’ll set off the bomb!”
Silvia had dealt with bombs before, so she could tell that the one on Leroy was real. If he set it off, everyone on the first floor would die in seconds.
“Don’t worry. I’m just a woman. What tricks could I possibly pull?”
