Chapter 674 - Asking for the Ransom
After Xu Zhenyu’s rescue team left, the Wen Family sunk into a deafening silence. The living room was so quiet that they could hear a pin drop. The rescue members were all waiting patiently for orders. Only the sounds of the clock ticking could be heard ringing in the house. It was rhythmic and loud, and it felt as if the clock hands were ticking against their hearts.
Old Mr. Wen and Old Mr. Mo were seated on the couch and waiting for the news anxiously. There were some fruits in front of them, as well as some snacks, none of which they touched.
Every minute and second felt like incredible torture.
They were overwhelmed with fear, anxiety, uneasiness, terror and all sorts of other emotions.
Wen Haowen initially found it a pity that he was not able to leak the information. However, after giving Xu Zhenyu’s words some thought, he felt that Wen Xinya would more likely than not die in this ordeal.
When that happened, he would be the only heir left of the Wen Family and everything would then belong to him.
The servants were shocked out of their senses when they saw the military personnel who were dressed immaculately in neat uniforms and holding onto their guns with austere expressions. They stood rooted to the ground and dared not breathe at all.
