Chapter 472 Salma’s Dream (2)

The kidnapper claimed to have abducted Jodie and Simone, instructing them to bring the ransom.

In her dream, Steven was on a business trip abroad. She called him, and he instructed her to take their sons and rescue the hostages.

He also wired the requested ransom to her account and sought assistance from nearby help.

Without hesitation, she and her sons took the money and went to the designated location.

The kidnapper had been monitoring their house, and he threatened to harm both hostages if they dared to involve the police.

Therefore, they didn’t report to the police and decided to use the money to rescue the hostages first. Upon learning of the situation, Leon also joined them.

Upon arrival, Salma saw Jodie and Simone tied up with ropes while the kidnapper held a gun.

Negotiations ensued. In order to save the hostages, they continued to bargain with the kidnapper, promising to give him the money in exchange for their release.

However, for some unknown reason, the kidnapper suddenly became sadistic and demanded that they make a choice.

They had to choose between releasing either Jodie or Simone first

The kidnapper intended to keep the other as a hostage and would only release them after safely leaving with the money.

This demand from the kidnapper caught them off guard.

From the kidnapper’s perspective, it was a reasonable request.

Jodie cried and suggested that they choose Simone. She explained that although Simone had martial arts. skills, Simone was the biological daughter of the Gray Family.

Therefore, they should save Simone first, and she volunteered to stay as a hostage.

Salma, in her dream, realized that Jodie was intentionally manipulating the situation.

Jodie was strategically retreating, trying to get them to choose her over Simone.

Although it seemed fake, those present believed it.

Simone remained silent, calmly waiting for their decision.

This comparison made those in the dream perceive Jodie as more sensible and considerate.

Jodie’s words also reminded them of something.

When Simone was with the Gray Family, she would wake up early every morning to practice martial arts taught by her master.

Moreover, they had favored Jodie for so long, so their hearts were biased.

They believed that Simone, rather than Jodie, was more suitable to be taken hostage.

Therefore, they chose Jodie without hesitation.

Leon also made the same choice.

Then Salma witnessed the hope in Simone’s eyes completely shattered, and she chuckled self- deprecatingly

She displayed an expression that seemed to have already anticipated this outcome.

She carried a sense of sadness and determination as if she had made a decision.

Salma felt a knot in her heart as she observed this scene.

She also noticed the touched expression on Jodie’s face, but there was a hint of smugness in her eyes. Obviously, what she said earlier was insincere, otherwise, she could have offered herself as a hostage again.

Following the agreement, the kidnappers released Jodie.

Just as Jodie approached them, Simone stood up. They all thought that the kidnappers would take the money and escape with Simone, abandoning her once they reached a safe place.

However, the kidnapper suddenly burst into laughter.

He looked at them mockingly and revealed that his choice was merely a game.

He had already been diagnosed with a terminal illness and couldn’t tolerate the arrogance of people from wealthy families like them.

He just wanted to find someone to vent his anger.

But he was a man of his word, and he would release one as promised.

Then, when everyone was caught off guard, the kidnapper suddenly turned around, raised his hand, and shot Samour without hesitation.

At that moment, Simone had just managed to break the rope that bound her with a small stone.

If the kidnapper hadn’t shot so quickly and unexpectedly, Simone would have had a chance to save

herself.

The kidnapper hit Simone in a vital spot.

As Simone fell, she revealed a regretful yet relieved smile.

Then she looked at them with a cold and desolate gaze and said, “You chose to let me die, and I will remember. Death is fine. Consider it was repaying your favor of giving birth to me. From now on, we have no relationship and owe each other nothing.”

After saying that, Simone closed her eyes and fell to the ground, losing her young life.

Salma couldn’t help but scream, “No. Simone!”

At the same time, she heard their voices in her dream, screaming Simone’s name.

She felt as if a piece of her heart had been torn away, and the pain was unbearable.

As she continued to shout and opened her eyes, she saw Steven standing in front of her, wearing a worried expression, asking. “Are you okay?”

Salma realized that tears were streaming down her face, and she felt like she couldn’t catch her breath. She desperately needed someone to comfort her, so she hugged Steven and burst into tears.

“We’re sorry, Simone. We’re so sorry!” The dream felt so real to her, as if it had actually happened. She didn’t know what their lives would be like after Simone’s death. But she knew that she felt heartbroken both at that time and now.

Steven stiffened as she hugged him, initially intending to push her away. But after hearing her words, he stopped

He couldn’t help but ask, “Sorry for Simone? Has something happened again these past few days? Was Salma causing trouble with Simone again, along with Jodie?

Titus and the others had similar thoughts.

Salma cried, gasping for breath, but managed to tell them in fragments what she had seen in her dream.

“It felt so real. I felt like it actually happened. Simone is dead, our own daughter, because of our choices.”

Salma had never felt so guilty before, and the anguish from the dream carried over into reality.

After listening to Salma’s words, Steven and her sons were all stunned for a moment. They didn’t know what to say.

Steven thought for a moment, reached out, and patted Salma’s back to comfort her. “It’s okay. Simone is Mill alive and well.”

“It was just a dream. Don’t dwell on it.”

Simone was indeed alive and well.

Steven speculated that Salma must have been deeply affected by Jodie’s contemptuous attitude, which resulted in this dream.

But Salma shook her head. “No, it felt too real. It wasn’t just a dream.”

“The events in the dream mirrored reality. But now, due to that incident, Simone suddenly cut off contact

with us.”

“I sense a connection.”

“Otherwise, considering Simone’s emotional nature, she wouldn’t have made such an abrupt decision.”

“It’s as if in the dream, she only started to distance herself from us without immediately severing ties.”

Saliua suddenly yearned to hear Simone’s voice. I want to call Simone.”

Then she went to search for her phone, only to remember that it had been damaged by Jodie.

She said to Steven, ‘Give me your phone.”

Observing Salma’s emotional breakdown and overwhelming guilt towards Simone, it didn’t seem like she was seeking trouble.

After contemplating for a moment, Steven unlocked his phone and handed it to her.

Salma took the phone and eagerly dialed Simone’s number.
