Love After Marriage: Mr. Lancaster's Hidden Wife novel Chapter 424

"The other one..." Shaw smiled like a lunatic. "Of course I would cut the other rope and let her fall right off with a thud!"

"What?" Henry clenched his fists and was about to charge towards him.

Joe stopped him and said, "Mr. Lancaster, calm down."

Henry stopped and stared at Shaw with his deadly eyes.

Shaw didn't seem to feel anything at all, and he kept speaking enthusiastically. "Do you know what happens when a person falls? They'll be crushed to pieces, and their head will explode like a watermelon. It'll explode with a 'bang,' and you’ll get to see their brains. Tsk tsk tsk... It's going to be so beautiful!"

He was dancing with excitement as Yvonne and Jacqueline were listening on the overpass and they were terrified.

Yvonne couldn't help thinking about the scene he had just described. Her stomach began to churn-it made her feel sick and nauseous.

On the other hand, Jacqueline immediately screamed i n horror. "I don’t want to fall. I don’t want to! Ugh... Henry, choose me. Choose me..."

Henry gritted his teeth and shouted, "Shut up!"

Jacqueline trembled and immediately shut her mouth when he yelled. However, her tearful eyes were full of grievances.

It was as if she was unhappy that he didn’t choose her right away.

"So what now, kiddo? Have you decided who to choose?" Shaw was still shaking his head leisurely even when there were so many guns pointed at him.

The veins on Henry’s forehead were bulging. "Shaw, d o you think I would believe you? Even if I did choose one of them, you wouldn't let her down either."

Shaw chuckled, "You may be wrong about this. I promise you that I’ll release whoever you chose, so who do you choose?"

"Henry, choose me!" Jacqueline called out again because she was afraid that Henry would choose Yvonne.

Yvonne moved her lips but didn't speak. She just looked at him as she waited for his answer.

Henry squeezed his fists so tightly that his arms trembled. The veins on the back of his hand were even more obvious, showing how angry he was feeling at the moment.

"What? Are you still thinking?" Shaw became impatient. "Kiddo, is it that difficult? The woman on the left is your ex-lover, and the one on the right is your current lover. You came over here for your

current lover, so can't you just pick her?"

Henry sneered, "Are you trying to set me up?"

"What do you mean?" Shaw narrowed his eyes.

Henry looked at him with cold eyes. "You purposely told me who I should choose and once I’ve chosen her, you'll immediately cut the rope of the person I chose, a m I right?"

Shaw seemed unhappy that Henry guessed it right, but after a while, he laughed and said, "Kiddo, you’re really smart. You guessed it right."

"What?!" Yvonne gasped as she was surprised.

She didn't expect that Shaw's actual plan was to do that.

He would cut the rope of whoever Henry chose.

If Henry actually chose her, Shaw would cut her rope and it would indeed be a fatal blow to Henry.

That old man was truly vile and evil.

Jacqueline, who was next to her, obviously heard the conversation too, but she did not think about it as much as Yvonne. She was just fortunate that Henry didn't follow her request of choosing her.

Otherwise, she would be gone now!

Jacqueline finally went silent when she felt the fear in her heart, and she did not dare to call Henry to choose her again.

"Your thoughts are written all over your face. I don't even have to guess," Henry said as he looked at Shaw's distorted old face. He didn’t even try to hide the contempt in his voice.

Shaw lowered his head. "So kiddo, you're not going to choose either of them?"

Henry pursed his thin lips. "If you still want to live, put them down now."

"Haha..." Shaw smiled wickedly, "I don’t want to. Since you don't want to choose either of them, then I'll just cut both ropes. There are so many of you anyway so I have nowhere to run. Let them die with me then!"

Henry brushed his hair up, exposing his stern face. "Of course I want to save them!"

"Oh?" Shaw's mouth curved upwards, "In other words, you chose to shoot yourself, right?"

"I didn't say that!" Henry answered indifferently.

Shaw was startled and he became angry. "Are you making a fool out of me? You want to save them without shooting yourself. What game are you playing?"

"A game where I get the best of both worlds." Henry turned to look at Joe.

Joe nodded his head lightly.

The interaction between the two not only attracted Shaw's attention, but also made Yvonne and Jacqueline curious.

What did he mean?

Was there a turnaround?

"Kiddo, what were you talking about just now?" Shaw suddenly realized something was wrong.

Henry ignored him and put a hand behind his back to gesture secretly.

Standing behind Henry was a police officer. Since Henry and Joe were standing in front of him, the police officer took his phone out and sent a message confidently.

Shaw, who was standing opposite them, felt more and more anxious when Henry didn't answer. He looked around and suddenly grabbed the two ropes and put the scissors on them. “Tell me, what were you doing just now? I'll cut these if you don't."

"Not a chance." Henry looked at him confidently.

Shaw glared at him and his nostrils started flaring as he sneered, "Really? I'll show you then!"

When he said that, he began to close the handles of the scissors.

At this moment, a slight piercing sound echoed and Shaw's body suddenly shook. His pupils dilated and the scissors slipped from his hand as his body fell backward...
