Chapter 932
Ricardo's gaze was icy as he spoke, "Now I've got you, Sandy, and Vanessa all in my grasp. Colby, the Pollards, and Odie will all dance to my tune!" While listening to Ricardo's ridiculous claims, Sophie glanced at the stun gun in her hand and retorted, "What makes you think we're all at your mercy?" Then, Sophie advanced toward Ricardo.
Ricardo was once a formidable leader of the Cloude family, renowned for his skills. Now he hesitated as Sophie approached him calmly.
Was Sophie confident she could take down a man like him?
"Ugh! Ugh!"
Sandy struggled desperately, her stiletto heel stomping down on Ricardo's foot. Ricardo winced in pain, instinctively releasing Sandy.
Just as Sandy was about to flee, Ricardo grabbed her hair with a vice-like grip.
Seeing this, Sophie's eyes turned cold. "Ricardo, let me guess. You used Vanessa to lure Sandy here, then used both their lives to force Sandy into deceiving me, right?"
Ricardo's eyes were filled with coldness. "So what if I did?"
Sophie said, "Ricardo, you were once the top dog of Bloomsbury. Now you've stooped to kidnapping women for a living. Don't you find that beneath you?"
"Beneath me?" Ricardo scoffed. "When you're driven to a corner, who cares about dignity? That's all nonsense! Sophie, you set me up, leading me into this dire state. Now I'm drowning in debt, with your S Corporation breathing down my neck! You even teamed up with Booker to have that mutt Julian snatch away my position as the head of the Cloude family! I won't rest until I've had my revenge!"
Sophie sneered, "Only a true monster would stoop to kidnapping women."
"Shut up! Sophie, call Colby now, and demand a ransom! And you two!"
Then, Ricardo pulled out a gun, pointing it at Vanessa and Sandy. Vanessa was already pale with fright, and Sandy was not faring any better.
Sophie quickly said, "So it's money you want? How much?"
"The Pollard, the Costello, and the Minton families, not to mention you, the hidden power behind S Corporation..."
At this, Sandy and Vanessa looked at Sophie in astonishment. The mysterious power behind S Corporation was Sophie?
Feeling their stares, Sophie frowned,
"What's with that look? A lot of

Corporation. Don't you... watch the news?"
Sandy was frantic. Was this really the time for jokes?
"I want a hundred billion!" At this point, Ricardo revealed his ultimate demand.
Sandy was stunned. A hundred billion! Had Ricardo lost his mind?
Sophie's gaze turned icy, a cold smile playing on her lips. "Mr. Ricardo's appetite... seems much bigger than I imagined."
Ricardo sneered back, "Likewise!
When you trapped me with that high-interest loan leading me into a debt of thirty billion, Ms. Sophie, you weren't the least bit merciful!"
"Actually, I never thought you'd stoop to kidnapping Sandy. Kidnapping Vanessa, an orphan with no one to rely on, is one thing. But Sandy? She's the Pollard's precious daughter, the jewel of Caelum. I'm afraid that even if you get your hands on that hundred billion, you won't live to enjoy it."
