Lilian changed her expression frantically and screamed, ”No! I don‘t trust this little bastard! He might just sell us out!”
“When that happens, we‘ll live the rest of our lives behind bars!”
“Cut it out, Mother!”
“Why would Harvey even do that?!”
Mandy had a helpless look on her face.
“He‘s not that kind of person! How do you still not know him?”
“If he‘s planning to hurt us, he would‘ve just left us here!”
“Why would he waste time talking to us?”
Harvey glared icily at Lilian.
“What are you trying to do?”
“Are you really going to wait for Joseph?”
“Are you waiting for him to have a guilty conscience? Or are you waiting for pure luck to get you out of this damn place?”
“Can‘t you be a little more realistic?”
“Who else is going to save you other than me?”
After sizing up Harvey, Lilian chuckled coldly and sneered, “Wow! You know how to threaten me now, huh?!”
“I don‘t mind telling you that I do have a backup that can turn the tables in my favor!”
“You can have it, but you‘ll have to accept all three of my conditions!”
“Mother! Is there even a point to all this now?” Mandy exclaimed, frustrated.
“Of course there is!”
“Do you understand just how well he‘ll have it if he gets this?!”
Lilian was extremely confident in herself.
“He has to accept all three of my conditions! That way, he won‘t have the chance to cross us later!”
Before Mandy could say anything, Harvey gave her a look and said to Lilian, “Talk. What do you want?”
“Smart boy!”
Lilian laughed wickedly.
“Number one: I can give you my backup, but if you can‘t bail us out and get the gold mine in three days, you’ll get away from Mandy as far as possible!”
“Fine,” Harvey replied.
Lilian chuckled.
“Number two: you‘ll have to give me four million and three hundred dollars in total as a mental loss fee!”
“After all, we wouldn‘t have ended up this way if it weren‘t for you.”
Lilian desperately tried to shift the blame.
“Number three: if you do fail and I end up behind bars for the rest of my life, you‘ll have to give me all of the Sky Corporation‘s shares!”
“These are the three conditions!”
“Can you do that?”
Lilian had a righteous look on her face, as if her conditions were fair and just.
Seeing this, Harvey chuckled in anger.
Does this woman not understand the situation she‘s in right now?‘
‘Her own daughter might get stuck in here for the rest of her life! How is she not scared?‘
‘She‘s trying to negotiate with me when I‘m the one trying to bail them out?’
‘She wants four million and three hundred thousand dollars if I manage to get them out…‘
But if I don‘t, I‘ll have to leave Mandy forever and give Lilian all of my shares of Sky Corporation?‘
“Are you really that much of a prick? Or are you dreaming a little too much? You think you‘re really that capable?” Harvey shot back with a disdainful tone.
“Enough talk, you bastard!”
Lilian scoffed and glared at Harvey.
“Are you going to do it or not?!”
“If not, you can just fuck right off!”
“Since you want to talk, then let‘s talk!”
“What do I get for bailing you out and taking the gold mine?”
“Are you planning to give the gold mine‘s shares to me?” Harvey said, shooting her a mocking gaze.
“No chance!” Lilian barked.
“That‘s my life and blood you‘re talking about!”
