Chapter 723 - So-called Victory
~ At Sy Residence ~
Alveena's parents, Kian and Ciara, were now talking to Lucas and Isabelle. They already prepared the ransom money.
The Sy still had no idea that this was just for show. Andrew and Alveena we're both safe. Alveena was in the Davis Mansion, bonding with Zhen-Zhen, Miho, and Pam-Pam.
Ciara was already crying. Isabelle was trying her best to comfort her. As much as she wanted to tell that Alveena was just alright, Isabelle tried her best to keep her mouth from revealing the truth.
They knew that they were being watched right now by Mr. Miller's men. They were deceiving him right now.. They were doing this as a diversion as Grandpa Lu was making his move to ruin the Miller's company.
By today, he aimed to destroy the company and make the Millers suffer a huge blow. He would make sure that the Miller family would not be able to stand up again and cause trouble to both families. This was for the safety of their children.
By the end of this day, Grandpa Lu would ruin the entire Miller family. A complete destruction.
"I will never forgive the people who did this to my beloved daughter!" Kian Sy, Alveena's father, was boiling in rage.
Lucas patted his back. "Don't worry. Someone will pay for this tenfold. We will capture the culprit and punish them accordingly."
"I hope nothing bad will happen to our children. Should we tell this to mother and father?" Ciara asked her husband.
"No, don't inform the elders. They will worry too much." Isabelle advised them. They didn't want the elders to worry since this was just for show.
What if they suddenly get sick from too much shock and worry? Lucas and Isabelle didn't want that to happen to the Sy Elders.
Fortunately, Ciara and Kian listened to their advice. They followed their suggestions. And now, the four of them were on the way to meet Fifth and Fourth to bring the ransom money.
They didn't contact any police. Isabelle and Lucas made sure that no law enforcement would know about this negotiation. Besides, they were aware that those men who contacted the Sy were their own people.
It was already 11:00 am when Lucas, Kian, Isabelle, and Ciara arrived in the warehouse. They were holding a briefcase filled with money.
This negotiation was being recorded live and Mr. Miller was currently watching it inside his office.
"Haha, what a great sight to see. The Davis and the Sy Family are being obedient to our demands," Mr. Miller mumbled as he watched Lucas and Kian counting the money in front of Fifth and Fourth.
Using Tres's computer skills, Mr. Miller could see Fifth as Bishop. Tres was already manipulated the video which she was transmitting to Mr. Miller's phone right now. But still, Fifth and Fourth were wearing masks so that the Sy Family would not recognize them.
He could even see Andrew and Alveena in the black van. Six and Dos also joined Fourth and Fifth as they pretended as Andrew and Alveena.
While he was watching this video, Mr. Miller had no idea that their company's stocks were now going down. Grandpa Lu's strategy already worked. He was buying all the stocks one after another.
Mr. Miller continued watching them without knowing that his company was on the verge of getting destroyed beyond repair. He would lose it by the end of the day. And it would be too late for him to realize and regret everything.
When the negotiation was done between the Eagles, the Davis Family and the Sy Family, they left the warehouse and got inside the black van.
"Who are you? Where is my daughter?" Ciara asked Six and Dos.
Lucas and Isabelle signaled Kian and Ciara to enter the van first. Inside the van, Lucas explained everything to the husband and wife.
The show was done. Mr. Miller was already convinced that all his plans succeeded. So Lucas informed them of the situation.
Ciara and Kian also called Alveena who was at the Davis Family Mansion. They felt relieved after hearing the voice of their daughter. She was just fine. Nothing bad happened to them.
Six and Dos escorted the Sy and the Davis to the Davis Family Mansion. The men who were following them had been taken care of by Uno. They were also captured by Uno and others. Andrew and Tristan also appeared in the warehouse, waiting for Mr. Miller to come.
Mr. Miller was now on the way to meet them at another location. Fourth, Fifth and others including Tristan and Andrew left the warehouse as they proceeded to the location where Mr. Miller instructed them to go.
He was so excited to get the money from them. He would congratulate his men personally because he was satisfied with their performance.
At around 1:00 pm, Mr. Miller arrived at the location. It was an old abandoned building near the center of the City of Empire. It was the old hideout of Bishop's group.
Fifth and Fourth, who were still wearing a mask, entered the building. They were holding the two briefcases containing the ransom money.
"Boss, we are here!" Fifth said, his voice sounded like Bishop's voice, thanks to the device invented by Tres.
"Haha, Welcome back! I'm so glad to see you. Did you bring the money?" Mr. Miller welcomed them with open arms. He was excited.
"Here's the money boss!" Fifth answered him again, raising the briefcase in his hand.
Mr. Miller grinned from ear to ear. He signaled them to come over.
"Where are the others?" Mr. Miller asked Fifth and Fourth since he noticed that only two people showed up inside the building.
"We asked them to wait outside. They will serve as our lookout. Don't worry Boss. We will make sure to compensate them and give their share after this," Fifth said, reassuring Mr. Miller.
Mr. Miller nodded his head, his eyes sparkling with delight. Fourth and Fifth put the two briefcases on the table. They opened it and showed Mr. Miller the money they got from the Davis and the Sy family.
Mr. Miller touched the money. He even smelled them as he laughed sardonically. He was like a devil laughing for his success.
"Haha! We got it! We got the money! I succeeded in avenging my daughter! Great job, Bishop!!!"
Fourth and Fifth exchanged a meaningful look with one another as they let Mr. Miller savor his so-called 'victory'.
