As long as she stayed together with Sky, she wouldn't be poor even though he had no property. Because he was the son of the Tanner family, he could sue the Tanner family if they took away his legal assets.
Therefore, it was important for him to save herself. Moreover, she was pregnant, she couldn't lose her baby because this baby was her bargaining chip to coerce Timothy and keep Sky to stay with her.
She couldn't lose her baby because she thought that this baby was still valuable.
"Do you know that you are insulting us?" The man sneered and pinched her chin with his hand, "We also have good professional ethics. So it doesn't work no matter how much money you can give us."
"Then... What can I do?" Sophie felt hopeless, and she didn't know what she could do to persuade them.
"You just need to cooperate with us obediently to help us complete our task." The man answered.
"What's your task? Do you want to kill me?" Her voice trembled and her face was pale.
"We indeed have to kill you..."
"Please let me go. As long as you don't kill me, you can tell me no matter what you want, and I will try my best to give you what you want." Sophie quickly knelt down on the ground and bowed to them with tears, "Besides, my life is not worth money. I'm afraid it will dirty your hands if you kill me. It is not worth it."
"It doesn't work no matter what you say. Once we have been entrusted by others, we will be loyal to our bosses. This is our working style and will never change." Although Sophie was crying with tears and begging them, they didn't sympathize with her.
"Don't talk nonsense with her anymore. Let's get things done and then leave." The other man was impatient.
"We are in the hospital now. Won't you be afraid of being arrested by the police if you kill me? Now we live in a society under the rule of law, you can't kill anyone casually. Even if you don't think about yourself, you should think about your family. Right?"
The man caught Sophie impatiently with one hand and pinched her chin to stop her from talking with the other hand. And then he took out a small bottle that had been prepared from his bag. He used his thumb to pull the cork down firmly and then opened it.
Sophie looked at the bottle with clear liquid, and her eyes were full of horror. She was resisting the bottle all over.
"Please... No..."
She couldn't yell out at all, and the man quickly poured down the transparent potion into her mouth.
When the potion was poured into her mouth, the man loosened her chin and stood up.
Sophie pinched her own neck, fell on the ground, and started coughing.
"It's done. Let's go! " The man was very satisfied with his work, and then they turned back and left.
"Ms. Linder, take good care of yourself." The other man said to her.
Sophie caught one of his corners of his pants before he turned back with all of her strength that her fingers turned white.
"Please... Don't leave me alone. " Sophie coughed again, and she caught his pant tightly because she was afraid that he would leave, "Please... Please give me an antidote... I don't want to die..."
She opened her eyes and looked at the man. The man laughed when he saw that she was afraid of death.
"Are you afraid of death?" The man asked her.
"Yes, I don't want to die. I can do everything for you as long as you spare me... " Sophie tightly grasped the only light of hope in front of her.
"If you want to survive, you must exchange it with the other life." The man looked at her from her face to her underbelly.
