Chapter 755 I Just Want to Target Penelope's Two Kids
Penelope nodded. "Yes! You've never been a mom, you simply wouldn't understand! You wouldn't get it at all!"
"Relax, I won't do anything to Sam," Isabella said deliberately. "I just think he's small and light, easy to control. I can handle him with one hand, so I thought of exchanging you for him. He's a kid, you're an adult. If I need a hostage, of course, I'll choose someone I can control, right?"
Penelope said, "I would never let my child be in even the slightest danger!"
Isabella, hearing this, became somewhat angry and embarrassed.
"Do you believe I'll slash your face right now?" Isabella said. "So you'll never be able to seduce men again, and everyone who sees your face will be shocked!"
"Go ahead, my face has already been disfigured before."
She had a long scar from before.
Over the years, she had been applying various expensive ointments to fade the scar.
Penelope didn't care much about her appearance.
"You!" Isabella was furious seeing her like this. "I really don't understand how someone with your temperament could have men who like you and are devoted to you!"
However, if she couldn't persuade Penelope, she could try to persuade Sam!
"Hey, Sam," Isabella said. "Do you want to exchange yourself for your mommy?"
Sam nodded. "Yes! Because I poisoned you, you hate me, you want to kidnap me, right? Penelope had nothing to do with this, you can just take me!"
"Good, that's what I thought too. Now come over here," Isabella looked at him. "Come over, and I'll let your mom go!"
Sam looked at the big hand holding him.
Connor wouldn't let him go.
What should he do?
He had to think of a way!
Penelope kept shaking her head, "No, no, Sam, don't get any ideas, okay? I won't let you be in danger."
Sam said, "I can't just watch you be in danger either, Penelope."
Nicole said, "Isabella, take me as a hostage instead of Penelope, okay? I can cooperate with you. I'm older and frail, I can't resist you. I'm the best choice!"
"You? I initially thought of choosing you," Isabella replied. "But after seeing Sam, I wanted to choose him more!"
"No, Sam is a child, he doesn't understand anything. He shouldn't be involved. Choose me, I'll exchange myself for Sam!"
Isabella sneered, "I just want to target Penelope's two kids, first Lucy, then Sam!"
Nicole looked heartbroken, "Why have you become like this? You said you remembered my teachings, why have you changed so quickly?"
"Isn't it because of you?" Isabella said. "Have you ever truly considered me? Your heart and eyes are full of your own biological daughter. Your so-called kindness and morality, seeing me once a year—you might as well have pleaded for me!"
"Enough!" Isabella became more annoyed as she spoke. "Are we exchanging or not?"
"No!"
"Yes!"
The one who kept insisting "yes" was Sam.
"Sam, don't make decisions on your own," Penelope said. "Stay calm, don't do anything, wait until Kelvin arrives!"
He hadn't arrived yet.
He would definitely have a way!
Penelope believed in him! She would wait for him!
Sam pouted, his eyes darting around, and he hugged Connor's neck, whispering, "Grandpa."
"What is it?"
"Let me down."
"No way." Connor refused without thinking, "If you run around and get caught by Isabella, it'll be a disaster!"
"How could she catch me?"
Connor asked, "What if you run towards her? Sam, I won't let you succeed at a time like this!"
Normally, Connor would indulge him.
But now, with personal safety at stake, he couldn't compromise!
"I won't." Sam said, "I just want to go out and see if Kelvin has arrived! He's the only one who can save Penelope!"
"We'll wait together."
"Grandpa, I'm really going to get Kelvin," Sam said. "I want to know how he plans to save Penelope and tell him about the situation in the ward!"
He kept kicking his legs, insisting on getting down.
Connor held him tightly, "No, you can't move."
Seeing Connor's firm attitude, Sam gradually quieted down and stopped struggling.
In the silence, there was suddenly a noise at the door.
No one knew what it was or how it happened.
Sam looked towards the door and exclaimed, "Kelvin is here!"
Kelvin arrived? Connor quickly looked up, focusing all his attention on the door.
Taking advantage of this moment, Sam quickly pushed away from Connor's chest, jumped down nimbly, and successfully escaped from Connor's arms!
As soon as his feet hit the ground, he ran towards Isabella!
"Alright, bad woman, I'm here to exchange for Penelope!"
In reality, Kelvin hadn't arrived at all. Sam was lying to distract Connor!
He fell for it!
How clever he was!
Connor now wanted to stop him, but it was too late.
Sam's steps were quick, and in no time, he was by Isabella's side.
"I'm here," he said. "Let Penelope go and take me."
Isabella looked down at him, "I didn't expect you to want to save her so much!"
"Because she's my mommy, and because I'm a boy, it's only right for boys to protect girls!"
Isabella's knife was still firmly against Penelope's neck, not moving.
"Are you going to exchange or not?" Sam asked. "I'm already here, why haven't you let Penelope go?"
Isabella kept scrutinizing him.
She was worried Sam was tricking her.
Isabella couldn't underestimate Sam, nor could she let her guard down!
This was her only and last chance; she couldn't afford to make a mistake!
She had to succeed!
She had to take someone down with her!
That person was Sam!
If it really didn't work out, then she would take Penelope. At least one person had to die with her!
"Do you have anything on you?" Isabella asked. "Hand it over yourself."
Sam spread his arms, "You can search me."
"I don't have time to search you! Don't try to fool me! My knife will never leave Penelope's neck!"
Until she was sure she could successfully capture Sam, Isabella wouldn't let go easily.
In this ward, everyone was on Penelope's side. If there was any chance, they could rush forward to rescue her at any moment!
