Chapter 1780
"Two days is unacceptable! We can’t wait that long," Mike rejected straight away.
"How about tomorrow? I'll pick you up tomorrow morning."
"No!"
Lily was firmer and answered readily, "Mike, | only promised to help you for old times’ sake and Nicky, so don’t push it!"
Mike was not upset after Lily scolded him, but he was still anxious.
"Lily, it's not that | want to rush you, but we're running out of time.Although we agreed to give you stime, you can’t keep
dragging your feet forever! 'Il—"
"He'll pick you up tomorrow!"

Suddenly, a strange hoarse voice sounded over the phone. It sounded eerie, shrill, and distorted.
Taken aback, Lily felt a chill run up her spine, and the phone nearly slipped off her hand.She calmed herself, sat up, leaned
forward, and asked, "Who are you?"
A peal of giggles came, so ear-piercing and creepy that it made Lily's hairs stand on end.She felt uncomfortable, but the person
kept giggling.
He halted just as she could not take it anymore and wanted him to stop.
Perhaps it stopped too abruptly, but she felt even more ill at ease.
"You'll find out who | am once you're here."
He giggled like a naughty child, but his voice had a hint of cunning and cruelty.
"Mrs.Russell, | advise you to act wisely because our patience is limited.You have been unharmed until now because you or the
Russells are not particularly powerful, but we still need you and want to keep you alive.
"However, if you don’t do as we say, then very soon you, your family, and those closest and dearest to you will know what it’s like
to run afoul of us!"
The man sounded like he said the last sentence through clenched teeth.
Lily clutched her phone and said coldly, "Since you still need me, | advise you to speak more politely.Otherwise, | will make you
realize what it's like to fail at the last minute!"
‘That this man!’ Even before meeting him and knowing his appearance, she disliked him just by listening to his voice.
She had never hated anyone so much before.
It was not just the man’s threats.

His voice, tone, and manner were so irritating that Lily wished to shove her hands through the phone speaker and strangle the
man's neck The man responded to her counter- threat by laughing irksomely and contemptuously.
"Great, I'm looking forward to it!"
He stopped laughing and continued, "Mike will pick you up tomorrow morning at eight. wonder who will be the first casualty if you
refuse to cooperate.Letthink.Will it be your husband? Your son? Or your assistant? Or n "If you dare to lay a finger on any of
them, I'll make you suffer immeasurably!"
Lily yelled at her phone.She hung up and caught her breath as her hand trembled uncontrollably.
The unborn twins seemed to have sensed their mother’s agitation and stirred uneasily inside her tummy.
The fetal movement made Lily catch herself.
She took a few deep breaths to calm herself and stroked her belly gently to soothe them.
"Don’t be afraid.Mommy will protect you guys! I'll protect everyone around me, no matter what!"
