Unexpected Marriage: She is the Sugar Mommy!-Chapter 273: Buying Your Life

One moment it’s cake, the next it’s spicy strips.

Whatever crayfish, hotpot, sweet, spicy, sour, she wants to eat them all.

Irene Rowe had never seen Seraphina Sinclair with this girlish demeanor, watching her lick the corner of her mouth contentedly after the cake, her eyes filled with smiles: "Boss, do you know that you look really tempting right now, if I were a man, I’d definitely want to commit a crime."

"Stop joking around and focus on driving," Seraphina glared at her, her cool hand caressing her rounded belly, feeling a surge of happiness.

Lately, she’s been loving sweets so much, maybe the baby inside is a sweet little princess.

Actually, she could find out if it’s a boy or a girl just by asking Camille White, but Seraphina Sinclair didn’t do that. Because whether it’s a boy or a girl, they’re both her dearest treasure.

While pondering what name to give the baby when it’s born, Seraphina Sinclair noticed the car suddenly stopped.

She paused, turned and asked Irene Rowe, "Why did we stop suddenly?"

"Boss, I think we’ve got trouble," Irene Rowe said seriously, her gaze slightly darkened.

Seraphina Sinclair focused, and immediately her heart sank to the bottom; they had indeed encountered big trouble.

At some point, the originally wide road had been surrounded by several black cars, and Irene Rowe instinctively wanted to reverse, but unexpectedly, several black cars slowly came up from behind, directly encircling them.

Not knowing who these people were, Seraphina Sinclair’s face darkened slightly.

This is no time for bravery; she hastily called the police, notifying Joel White and the others as well.

But even so, the police and Joel White couldn’t arrive in time, now what they needed to do was buy some time.

Seraphina Sinclair took a couple of deep breaths, trying to calm herself down, then grasped Irene Rowe’s arm: "Stay in the car and don’t move, I’ll go down and negotiate with them. If we can talk, that’s best, if not, run when I’m distracting them!"

"Boss, this won’t do!" Let alone that Seraphina Sinclair is still pregnant, even if not, Irene Rowe could never let Seraphina risk herself.

"This isn’t the time to discuss whether it works or not, Irene Rowe, you must do as I say!" Seraphina Sinclair shouted at Irene Rowe, watching those black cars unload dozens of men in black.

Irene Rowe was unwilling to abandon Seraphina Sinclair and run, holding back tears, she said to her: "I’ll lure them away, you seize the chance to escape."

"Don’t you understand? These people are after me, you’ll find it easy to run, but do you think they’d be stupid enough to let me go?" Seraphina coldly looked at Irene, calmly telling her, "I’m getting off the car now, don’t move, and when there’s a chance, leave quietly, understood?"

Before Irene could say anything more, Seraphina Sinclair had already opened the car door and stepped out.

Irene exclaimed: "Boss!"

Once Seraphina Sinclair got out of the car, those men in black surrounded her.

It seemed indeed their target was Seraphina Sinclair.

"Everyone, may I ask why you’ve stopped my car? What’s the matter?" Seraphina Sinclair suppressed her internal fear, trying her best to appear less afraid.

"Miss Sinclair, we’re just following orders, if you cooperate, we’ll resolve it quickly, won’t let you die too painfully," the leader of the men in black was a big bald guy, wearing large sunglasses, with a terrifying scar on his worn face, clearly not a good person. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

Upon hearing his words, Seraphina Sinclair’s heart instantly calmed. She initially thought they intended to kidnap her.

Unexpectedly, they wanted her dead right from the start.

She always believed that she hadn’t actively offended anyone all these years, yet these people wanted her dead, it seems quite absurd.

Seraphina Sinclair’s expression grew colder, she didn’t try to escape, nor did she resist, she calmly looked at the bald man and asked: "Since you’re saying I must die, as a weak woman facing so many people, it’s absolutely certain. May I ask who wants me dead?"

"Miss Sinclair, we’re just here for money, it’s difficult for us to reveal our client’s information." The bald man seemed reasonable, not like some ignorant thug.

The mention of ’client’ piqued Seraphina’s interest, her gaze brightening: "Since you can’t disclose client information, perhaps you could reveal how much they’re paying for my death?"

"That, we can tell you." The bald man extended a hand, showing five fingers, a greedy smile appeared at his lips, "Miss Sinclair’s life is surprisingly valuable."

Seraphina Sinclair probed: "Five million?"

The bald man shook his head.

"Fifty million?" Seraphina thought to herself, fifty million is a considerable sum.

"No, it’s five hundred million." The bald man looked at Seraphina’s beautiful face, thinking of a life worth five hundred million, his eyes softened considerably.

Five hundred million?

Seraphina Sinclair almost thought she misheard, what rich family could spend so much to buy her death?

Originally she thought it might have been Nina Kerr, but now it seemed unrelated to her. Nina certainly has money, but it isn’t all hers, spending five hundred million as she pleases, she doesn’t have that privilege.

If not Nina, then who?

When did she offend such a mogul? Someone willing to spend five hundred million to end her life.

Seraphina Sinclair didn’t dwell too much on this; she had to deal with the current situation. She showed the bald man a number, earnestly saying: "I’ll pay six hundred million to buy my own life."

Since they were after money, maybe solving it with money might grant her a chance.

"Miss Sinclair, you’re joking, even if you offered a billion today, we’d still have to kill you." The bald man smiled at Seraphina Sinclair, as if viewing a small carp waiting to be slaughtered.

"If that’s the case, you’re not doing this for money?" Seraphina Sinclair felt a chill in her heart, even ten billion wouldn’t sway them, clearly determined to take her life today.

The bald man didn’t refute, calmly saying: "No matter what, you must die today, but there’s no grievance between us, if you have any last words, I can pass them on to your family and friends."

Killing someone then delivering last words, afraid people wouldn’t know he’s a murderer? Seraphina thought, yet kept a blank expression.

Unable to negotiate with them, she could only delay until Joel White and the police come to her rescue.

Thus she seriously started to ponder: "Could you give me a moment to think about my last words? After all, this is the first time I’ve contemplated such a thing, suddenly I really can’t think of what to say."

"No problem, take your time." The bald man seemed not worried about Seraphina Sinclair escaping, dozens of grown men surrounding a young woman, if she got away, it’d be a laughingstock.

Seraphina Sinclair tightly clasped her hands, appearing seriously to ponder her last words, while everyone stared at her intently, afraid she might make a move.
