Dangerous Negotiations

Book:The Billionaire Alpha Contract Lover Published:2024-12-16

Emelyn flicked the cigar with her fingers and pondered for a few seconds before looking at Taya again. “Ms. Palmer, you misunderstood. I really just wanted to invite you to the party.” “Do you really like Holden?” Taya didn’t expose Emelyn’s intentions and just asked this question. Emelyn was puzzled and looked at Taya, “Why do you ask?” Taya said, “If you really like Holden, then you will understand my feelings.” If Emelyn really liked Holden, then she would understand how difficult it was to mate the person she loved after going through so many hardships. Emelyn paused her fingers holding the cigar for a moment. Taya was very cautious about following men like Griffon, knowing the dangers that come with it. If she continued to persuade her, she mighty think she was not trustworthy. But S’s mission… Emelyn was no longer soft-hearted and said to Taya, ‘I have invited your good friends to the club. Are you sure you don’t want to come?’ No wonder Harper was called away by the club’s people early this morning, and Stella and Henry didn’t come to see Grace. She thought it was a coincidence, but it turned out they were ‘invited’ to the party by Emelyn. It seemed she was determined to have her come, pointed to the group of bodyguards guarding the villa. ‘They are all Griffon’s people. If I go go with you, they will inform Griffon of our location. Are you sure you want me to go?’ Emelyn smiled faintly and said, ‘They can’t catch up with my car…
After saying that, she raised her eyebrows at Taya and said, ‘Ms. Palmer, get in the car! This gentle kidnapping method was the first time Taya had seen it. She looked at Emelyn helplessly and asked, ‘Ms. Davies, what do you want Griffon to do?’ Emelyn’s words were light and casual, but Taya didn’t think it was that simple. She frowned and asked Emelyn, ‘If I go with you, will my friends be safe?’ Emelyn nodded, ‘Originally, it was just to negotiate with Greyson and wouldn’t endanger anyone else’s life, but if you don’t go…’ She paused and her expression became serious. ‘I can’t guarantee the safety of your friends…’ Her foster father was not a kind person. On the contrary, he would do whatever it takes to clear all obstacles. But she could be sure that her foster father wouldn’t harm Griffon, and he would do everything possible to protect his life during this trip to Erebus. However, anyone around Griffon, whether they were subordinates or pack members, would not be in her foster father’s eyes. He even hated his family. Taya, who understood Emelyn’s intentions, asked her, “Can I go back and change my clothes first?” Emelyn saw through her plan and implied said that she should consider her friend’s situation more. In other words, she already had her friends controlled and should not try to signal the bodyguards or call out for help. After thinking for a moment, Taya put her hand behind her back and made a gesture toward the bodyguards while she was still holding the car door. Seeing Taya get in the car, Emelyn put out her cigar and started the engine. As she stepped on the gas pedal, she glanced at the rearview mirror and saw that the bodyguards were following them. Emelyn easily shook off the bodyguards as she was the captain of the S team.
Taya held onto her seatbelt fightly to avoid being thrown out of the car. The nausea in her stomach made her want to vomit. Emelyn glanced at Taya and said, “It seems that you don’t really like Holden.” Taya realized that Emelyn had lied about inviting her to the party to lower her guard. Emelyn has received orders to take Taya away from Holden and use her as a bargaining chip to negotiate with Griffon. Emelyn thought that taking Taya to the party and then having Holden negotiate with Griffon would be more effective. Although this method was despicable, Emelyn had to follow the organization’s orders. She felt sorry for using Taya in this way. Taya understood the situation. Holden and Griffon had failed to reach an agreement the night before, which was why they had used her to threaten Griffon. Taya checked her pockets and realized that she had left her phone behind. She knew that Emelyn wouldn’t harm her, but she was worried that Griffon might agree to the demands made by the other side. Griffon was the Alpha of the S team, and has always dealt with S’s affairs first. If he had refused Taya couldn’t let them threaten Griffon, no matter what. As she that about this, the car quickly arrived at the beach club. Unlike other entertainment venues, this club was built by the sea and belonged to the beach club. Under the night sky and sea breeze, men and women dressed in suits and dresses walked on the beach, holding high gla*ses and listening to soothing melodies. If it weren’t for their ulterior motives, this scene would seem like a seaside bachelor party. After getting out of the car, Taya didn’t see Harper and furrowed her brows. “Ms. Davies, where is my friend?” Emelyn locked the car door and threw the keys to the valet. “Ms. Palmer, kidnappers wouldn’t keep their hostages in the same place.” Emelyn had lied to her again! Taya clenched her fists and gritted her teeth. “Ms. Davies, you’re a wealthy young lady. Your methods are too dishonorable.” Emelyn didn’t argue and admitted, “It’s true that my methods are dishonorable, but you know what? My foster father has saved me countless times. Without him, I wouldn’t be here. I can’t betray his kindness and upbringing.” Taya wasn’t in the mood to play emotional cards with her and asked coldly, “Since I’m here, can you please release my friends?” Emelyn shook her head. “Ms. Palmer, don’t think too much in front of me. I grew up in a certain place and have certain thought and methods that you don’t understand. f outsmart Emelyn and should just follow her orders and not try to escape. Taya did want Emelyn to release Harper and the others so she could escape alone.
