Perfect CEO
Chapter 224
Gwendolyn could not help but laugh when she heard Juliette's remark.
“Okay, I'll certainly poke him,” she said.
Samuel broke out in a cold sweat out of terror, and a grimace gradually formed on his face.
He breathed heavily and stared at the needle, fearing it would touch him.
Moreover, the woman and her daughter were unlike other people. Under such circumstances, they still discussed whether or not to poke him.
Samuel's gaze began to harden. People like him had been through many kinds of situations.
No matter how scary the situation got, he was able to tough it out. Therefore, he would not be afraid of the minor screw-up that happened on this day.
A wicked smile flashed across his face. Only time would tell whether the mother-daughter duo could escape.
Once the door was locked, the people inside the building could not get out, and Gwendolyn felt a lot safer. The only thing left to do was to head downstairs and get inside the car.
Her plan was to subdue Samuel, head home, and relocate to another place.
She had already planned everything down to the last detail.
Samuel started to walk, and the three of them descended the stairs awkwardly.
Gwendolyn turned to look at Juliette and reminded her, “Be careful, Sweetheart. Don't fall.”
At that moment, Juliette did not have to tug at Gwendolyn's clothes anymore. She walked downstairs on her own cautiously.
When they reached the third floor, the stairwell was very dark due to the absence of lamps.
Juliette inched closer to her mother fearfully and muttered, “It's dark, Gwen.”
Children were afraid of the dark. Little girls, in particular, were even more reluctant to walk in the darkness.
Gwendolyn pursed her lips. She wanted to hold her daughter's hand and give her a sense of security.
However, she must keep the man in front of her under control. Otherwise, it would be very difficult for them to leave.
Juliette screamed, “Ah...”
She missed a step and tumbled down the stairs. A horrified Gwendolyn released her grip on Samuel and called Juliette loudly, “Juliette... Juliette...”
She felt hopeless at that point. As long as Juliette was fine, it did not matter whether they managed to escape or not.
Gwendolyn took out her phone and turned on the flashlight. She ran down the stairs and found Juliette lying at the foot of the staircase. Blood was seeping out of her forehead.
Gwendolyn was frightened and tried to hold her daughter up. “Juliette... Juliette...”
Unfortunately, Juliette did not answer. Samuel took out his gun and pressed the muzzle against Gwendolyn's head.
“You'll pay for holding me hostage!” he cried.
Teardrops streamed down Gwendolyn's cheeks as she kept calling Juliette, but there was no response from the latter.
She did not hear Samuel's threats at all.
Suddenly, Gwendolyn raised her head and said, “Juliette, I'll take you to the hospital.”
She carried Juliette and was about to leave when Samuel grabbed hold of her and said, “You aren't going anywhere.”
