"What are you up to again?"
"I will only talk to Terence Thorne!"
Mrs. Thorne, realizing the seriousness of the situation, did not push her out anymore. "Wait here!"
Hearing that lody Thorne was willing to hand over all the evidence she had, Terence Thorne imdiately ca downstairs and strode to the door.
"Are you willing to hand over all the evidence you have?"
lody Thorne answered expressionlessly, "Yes."
Gareth Thorne, being an old fox, wouldn’t easily believe lody’s words. "Why do you suddenly want to hand it over? What do you want to do?"
"I need you to accompany to the hospital, and once we’re there, I’ll give you everything you want."
"Why go to the hospital?"
lody Thorne opened the umbrella in her hand. "It’s up to you whether you go or not, but if you miss today, you can forget about ever getting that evidence."
Terence Thorne naturally wouldn’t miss any opportunity to retrieve that evidence, and he was about to walk over.
"Wait," Mrs. Thorne answered a phone call and suddenly ca out, pulling Terence Thorne back. She smiled at lody Thorne. "Actually, that evidence isn’t too critical for us. If you don’t want to give it now, then don’t."
"What are you talking about!" Terence Thorne pulled Mrs. Thorne. "Do you know how important that evidence is to us? As long as it’s in her hands, the Thorne Family will have to be on edge every day."
"Why are you in such a hurry?" Mrs. Thorne snorted coldly, looking outside. "Now that Finn Thorne has had a car accident, she’s only doing this because she is desperate, trying to exchange the evidence. The hospital already called, saying Finn only has 24 hours to live. If we don’t go over now, he might die."
lody clenched the umbrella in her hand tightly. Finn Thorne would not die; she absolutely would not let him die. Even if he wasn’t her real brother, he couldn’t die.
"So that’s how it is." Terence Thorne was no longer anxious. "The lady is right. We’re not in a hurry to retrieve the evidence now. The Thorne Family can’t afford to offend you, and you have the Quinn Family as a strong backing. All right, all right, you don’t have to stand here anymore. Do as you wish."
lody Thorne’s hand clenched tightly, her heart turning cold. She said coolly, "That’s right, Finn Thorne was in a car accident, but if I hand over the evidence now, I guarantee that the first to fall before Finn dies will definitely be your Thorne Group. Even if I fight to the death, I won’t let you off."
"Madam, this..." Terence Thorne was not a person of exceptional patience, especially seeing lody Thorne’s fierce deanor.
"All right, you go back inside first." Mrs. Thorne walked out and pushed lody into the rain. "In the end, you still want us to save that little Finn. Fine, we can save him, but not for free. I want the evidence, all of it. Not only the evidence, but I also want you to stand here for two hours. Two hours isn’t long, right? Endure it, and we’ll save him imdiately."
Mrs. Thorne despised lody Thorne, especially seeing her like this, making her want to teach her a lesson.
Raising her hand, Mrs. Thorne knocked the umbrella out of her hand. "Wait here."
The umbrella fell to the ground, and the pouring rain drenched lody Thorne thoroughly...
...
"Shouldn’t we help Miss?" After all, that Thorne family young master isn’t really Miss’s brother.
Miss is an only child; the Seymour Family has only her!
