Chapter 1495
Serenity finally understood why one of her hands was tied to the handbrake and the other one was tied to the steering wheel.
One would live and the other would die. No matter what choice she made, there was no happy ending!
No one knew how many bombs were planted around her car.
There was no time to investigate. Not to mention, if someone accidentally touched a bomb and set it off, it would lead to the worst possible outcome!
Was there really not a glimmer of hope left? Serenity racked her brain, trying to think of a solution.
Jenny had also heard Walter's words through the video call. She laughed and told Serenity, "Well, well, isn't that interesting? What do you think Jackson will do, Serenity? Of course he'll treat you as a dispensable object and let you die!"
Serenity didn't even hear Jenny. All her attention was on Jackson.
Jackson was also looking at Serenity. Determination slowly crept into his eyes.
Serenity instantly knew what he wanted to do. She screamed, "Don't, Jack! There must be another way!"
However, Jackson ignored her. He took out his phone, clicked on the voice recording function, and said, "This is Jackson Valor. Upon my death, I leave all the assets under my name to my wife, Serenity! This message is an expression of my true will."
When he was done, he threw the phone to Connor.
Connor caught the phone, stunned.
Mr. Valor was going to... sacrifice himself to save his wife? He had even recorded his will!
But... if Mr. Valor died, then...
Connor didn't even dare to imagine the consequences.
Walter seemed shocked as well. He asked Jackson, "Young master, don't tell me you're actually going to sacrifice yourself to save that woman?"
Jackson said, "Didn't Grandpa want to make a bet with me? Now that he's six feet under, it's time for him to learn the outcome of the bet."
Walter fell silent momentarily before he said, "On the device, there's a recording that Master Zack left for you. You can listen to it by pressing the green button."
Jackson moved towards the deactivation device without saying another word.
Connor shouted at Walter, "What the hell are you thinking?! He's Master Zack's grandson! There's no way Master Zack would kill his own grandson, right? There must be another solution! What is it?!"
Walter said with a half smile, "There's no other solution. This is the only one. So what if he's Master Zack's grandson? Master Zack wasn't someone who would care about that."
Connor was dumbstruck. Indeed, Master Zack had never valued family relationships. There wasn't much love between Mr. Valor and Master Zack.
Did Master Zack want to bet that Mr. Valor's feelings for Serenity weren't actually that deep?
