Chapter 669 - The Kidnapper Might Kill the Hostage
Old Mr. Mo was reading a book in the study. It was an ancient book that Si Yiyan had given him, which depicted politics in history and was an extremely rare find.
Ever since Old Mr. Mo found out about Si Yiyan and Wen Xinya, Si Yiyan often sent him gifts that were rare and precious. Although he knew what Si Yiyan’s intentions were, he did not wish to expose him because of Wen Xinya.
Si Yiyan was undoubtedly outstanding. However, Old Mr. Mo was skeptical towards him because of his scheming and manipulative nature. He felt that a man like Si Yiyan was hard to control and that his world was far too complicated for Wen Xinya, whom he did not wish to implicate.
Hence, he had been secretly keeping close tabs on Si Yiyan despite not objecting to their relationship or stopping them from seeing each other.
Gradually, he began to change his opinion of Si Yiyan.
He was glad to see that Si Yiyan was meticulous and caring towards Wen Xinya and put her best interests at heart. Not only did he often spare a thought for her and aid her in her academics, but he had also showered her with care and concern.
So far, he had stopped opposing so strongly against Si Yiyan and Wen Xinya. Instead, he decided to stay calm and observe his changes.
Si Yiyan guessed that Wen Xinya’s abduction must have something to do with the cases of assault in the West region. The culprits were extreme terrorists and Wen Xinya would be in danger if they were to provoke them. Most importantly, they would definitely kill the hostage once they received the ransom.
Old Mr. Mo was intelligent and could immediately tell what the main point was. He asked in a shaky voice, “Will the abductor kill Xinya after receiving the ransom?”
With a heavy heart, the middle-aged man nodded.
Old Mr. Mo shuddered and took a deep breath before saying, “Rest assured, leave this to me.”
