My Billionaire Ex-Husband Chase Me Back - Chapter 377

Chapter 377: Emma Is In Danger! (2)
“If I know, what do you want me to do?” Emma responded to Jacob coldly. “You want to force me?”

Jacob smirked while casually leaning back against the sofa. He was so happy that Emma knew where Natalie and Bella were.

“Come on, Emma,” Jacob’s voice sounded gentle. “How could I use force on my little sister? Of course not. But I will ask you nicely. Tell me, where’s my lovely niece, Bella…”

Lucas and Thomas’s eyes beamed, surprised to hear their older brother’s words. Now, they were convinced that Emma knew where Bella was.

Their smiles showed happiness as they turned their gazes at Emma and waited for her to respond. They felt joy now because they could still escape their company’s crisis.

Once they found Bella, their problems would settle. They no longer had to repay Bradley Caville’s money because they would become in-laws.

In addition, if they become in-laws, Bradley will help them control the media’s narratives, which have attacked and spread negative news about them because of the bribery case.

Even now, Bradley Caville is also having problems with his company, which is having difficulty selling anything in its numerous stores. However, he is still wealthy enough to live comfortably. He can pay the media to bury the negative news surrounding them.

However, when Lucas and Thomas felt happy, their happiness slowly faded when they heard Emma’s answer.

“I won’t tell you anything, brother Jacob. So stop forcing me!” Emma firmly rejected it. She didn’t want all of them to stay at her house longer.

Before she asked them to leave, a piece of shocking news struck her when Jacob spoke.

“It looks like you no longer care for your dearly only son—” Jacob’s voice hung in the air when he saw Emma gasp in shock, her face slowly pale.

Jacob continues, “You seem to understand what I mean, sister.” He stifled a laugh.

“WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING, JACOB DONOVAN?!” Emma snapped, angry to hear Jacob suddenly bring her son into their conversation.

“What are you doing to him?” She pointed to her older brother, furious. “Jacob, if you lay a finger on my son, harm him. I promise you, I will kill you!” She started to feel worried, thinking her brother would really harm her son.

Jacob didn’t bother hearing his sister’s intimidating words. Instead of worrying, he felt amused to witness Emma lose her calmness and become angry.

“Relax, little sister. I won’t do anything to my nephew as long as you tell me where Bella is.” He smiled.

However, Jacob’s friendly smile slowly faded as his expression became as cold as a glacier.

He said, “But if you refuse to tell me the truth, my people’s hands might slip. Well, sis, you know my people are slightly foolish, right? They might break my nephew’s leg or even injure his handsome face—”

Jacob Donovan crossed his hands over his chest and smiled happily. It was fun to see his sister’s face now show fright.

Once more, Emma felt her blood run cold, imagining her only son being tortured. Just thinking about it was enough to make her feel suffocated. Her confidence suddenly crumbled, completely different from when she received a short message from Bella.

‘Bella?’

Emma’s eyes slightly lowered as she saw her cell phone. Another warm feeling swallowed her when she remembered Bella hearing their conversation.

She needed time for Bella to take action.

‘If Bella finds out something happened here, she must know how to track my son, right?’ Emma wondered.

The calm she had lost earlier slowly returned.

Slowly, Emma’s confidence grew. She was no longer worried. Her gaze returned to her eldest brother, Jacob.

She didn’t rush to respond to her jerk brother but stared back at him confidently.

“Jacob Donovan, you are the worst person I have ever encountered in my entire life!” Emma casually said; however, Jacob and the others almost vomited blood.

Instantly, countless questions bothered their minds;

How could she drastically change?

What happened to her confidence?

She didn’t believe it?

Why? How?

After a few seconds, silence enveloped the air. Finally, Jacob spoke again, “Oh my, my little sister Emma, it seems you really want to see my nephew Liam paralyzed!?”

Instead of anger or fear, Emma laughed while waving her hand—a sign she didn’t buy Jacob’s words—to add fuel and make him speak more. She said, “Do you think I believe you? Jacob, I’m old enough to know whether you are telling the truth or trying to scare me!”

Emma needed to make Jacob reveal where he had detained her son so that Bella could hear him and send her people to rescue Liam. This was the only way she could help her son and ensure his safety.

Jacob Donovan started to get impatient talking to his slow and stupid sister. He cleared his throat while taking his cell phone before returning his displeased gaze to Emma.

“It seems like you underestimate me a lot, Emma. Fine. I will show that you are so stupid not to believe me. And to see how frightened your son is now,” Jacob said before dialing a number to do a video call.

Emma didn’t say a word. She smiled at Jacob even though inwardly, she felt like her heart was about to stop beating. She was too frightened they would not find her son, and her brother would really break Liam’s leg or injure him badly.

“Don’t regret and blame me if my people break Liam’s hands or injure your son’s pretty face, Emma.” Jacob succeeded in adding tension to Emma’s heart.

Emma tightened her fist. A shiver ran down her spine when she saw the video call finally connect.

It didn’t take long for the fear she imagined to become real. Her evil older brother had indeed captured her son, Liam.

Emma saw her son sitting in a chair, tied with rope, and his mouth taped shut to prevent him from speaking. What made her almost lose her cool when she saw her son’s eyes so red and tears still streaming down his cheeks.
