I looked at the complacent Jasmine and Jason in front of me, my face turning cold.
"I don't care if you like to daydream, but the shares the old chairman left to me, I won't hand them over to you."
Jasmine's face darkened, and she gritted her teeth, "You stubborn bitch!"
"Since that's the case, I'll lock you in the basement to accompany the snakes, insects, and rats.
Let's see if you'll talk then!"
As soon as Jasmine finished speaking, I was dragged into the basement by several security guards.
The basement was dark and damp, and if I listened carefully, it seemed like there were animal sounds.
I suddenly felt a chill in my palm, as if I had touched something.
I looked in the direction of the faint light and discovered that it was actually a snake hissing and flicking its tongue at me!
I screamed in fright, but accidentally stepped on a rat's tail.
In an instant, the entire basement was filled with my screams.
"How is it, Melinda? Are you enjoying your rest in the basement?"
Jasmine's gloating voice came from outside the door, "You, just stay inside and enjoy.
I'll let you out when I'm in a good mood!"
"Jasmine! I advise you to let me out quickly.
We live in a society ruled by law now.
If you do this, the entire Heshang Group will face retribution!"
With the personalities of my three children, if they find out that I've suffered such a great grievance, Heshang Group will be in trouble.
I was clearly giving Jasmine a well-intentioned reminder, but Jasmine acted as if she had heard a hilarious joke and burst into laughter outside the door.
"What are you? Just a small company boss, and you think you can bring retribution to the entire Heshang Group? Don't bite off more than you can chew! With Judge Xu around, even the law has to listen to me!"
With that, she stopped paying attention to me.
I stayed alone in the basement for a long time.
I didn't know how many snakes Jasmine had ordered to be put into the basement.
I only felt that my entire body was crawling with cold snakes, and in no time, I was bitten several times.
But no matter how desperately I swung my arms, I couldn't shake off these snakes.
Just like that, I spent a night in utter despair, constantly hoping that Liam would discover my disappearance and come to save me as soon as possible.
I don't know how much time passed before the basement door finally opened.
Jasmine and Jason looked at me with vicious smiles.
Jasmine and Jason looked at me with vicious smiles, "Tsk, after just one night, how did you become so miserable?"
I hadn't had a drop of water for a day and a night, and I was torn and bitten by countless snakes.
Now, there wasn't a single piece of good flesh on my entire body.
I indeed looked extremely miserable.
Jasmine kicked my stomach with the tip of her shoe, "Are you willing to talk now? Melinda, it's just a few shares.
It's not worth losing your life over, right?"
I really felt like I couldn't hold on any longer.
If I continued to be tortured, it was very likely that I would really die.
In the face of life and death, I decided to temporarily submit.
Staying alive was the most important thing.
It wouldn't be too late to take revenge after escaping from this hell!
I helplessly revealed the location of the share transfer contract, "Can you let me go now?"
Unexpectedly, Jasmine suddenly gave a sinister smile and pinched my chin, "Oh, Melinda, you've completely lost your value now.
Do you think I'll still spare you?"
With that, she said in a deep voice, "Bring out the torture device!"
As soon as Jasmine finished speaking, a torture device gleaming with cold light was brought out.
It was a long wooden board embedded with densely packed sharp iron nails, and there were two rows of blades beside the nails.
"What you're doing is illegal! What you're doing is illegal!!!"
"Melinda, if you crawl over it, I'll let you go.
How about that?"
