“What do you think?” Sean’s lips curved into a wicked grin. “To be frank, I haven’t thought it through. Not only did you fail to reveal the whereabouts of the will, you even alerted Shane on the existence of this will. If he gets to it before me, my whole family would be in grave danger. To prevent that from happening, I had no choice but to get rid of you. You’re just too important to him.”

“You’re killing me?” A hint of terror flashed through Natalie’s eyes.

He shook his head. “No, not at the moment. I’m just exploiting you to threaten Shane so that he’ll hand the will over to me.”

“Is that why you abducted me all the way here?”

“That’s right,” replied Sean as he gently caressed Natalie’s head. “I’m keeping you locked up in here while Shane searches for the will. When he manages to get hold of it, then I’ll give you back to him.”

“Has it ever crossed your mind that he’ll spare no effort in seeking revenge after I return to him?” She retorted whilst giving her captor a menacing glare.

Even though he howled in laughter, there was no trace of humor in his eyes. “You really believed I didn’t think of all these? Even so, I was left with no other choice. I’m just going to have to make sure I’ve got dirt on you before you leave my sight. That way, I’ll have plenty of blackmail material in the future. He wouldn’t act rashly with me then, would he?”

“You…” Natalie bit down on her lip, hard. In a trembled voice, she probed, “What are you going to do to me?”

“It’s simple, really. All I need to do is strip you naked and take tons of indecent photographs and videos of you. Those should be enough to frighten Shane,” Sean threatened as he peered into her terrified eyes.
