Chapter 1474 Whoever’s Lucky Gets to Leave
At that moment, Olivia was filled with deep regret. Perhaps they wouldn't have been taken
away if she had been with them.
They might feel somewhat safer if she could head inside and be with them.
While holding back his anger, Eugene asked, "What do you want? Promise Island or my
life?" But Joseph chortled arrogantly. "I don't want to talk to you."
Olivia knew that he wanted to talk to her.
When her master came to bring her away from Double Dragon Court, they only went
through Jonathan and without Joseph. Later, she heard Joseph had made a big fuss about
it.
Therefore, he was probably thinking of making things difficult for her.
She clenched her teeth and asked, "I'll do the talking. What do you want?"
Joseph smirked, resembling a venomous snake flicking its tongue. "I want to meet with
you, my dear old friend."
Olivia responded, "Fine. Exchange me for them."
Eugene was startled and grabbed her. "Are you crazy? I can't let you exchange yourself for

them. Do you want to scare me to death?"
Olivia whispered, "There's no other way, Eugene. Look at Blake. He can't go without
medication for a long time, or his condition could worsen at any moment. We won't have
time to save him if that happens."
The grip Eugene had on her hand tightened. "Even if you exchange yourself for Blake, how
can we save him without you?"
Olivia assured him, "Don't worry. I have a way to escape. Don't forget that I am now the
princess of Eurosia. He wouldn't dare to do anything to me."
In the meantime, Joseph watched them whispering and discussing. He chuckled. "You have
no right to negotiate with me. Either you come in, or you may leave. Your four sons are
more valuable than you."
Olivia didn't expect Joseph to act so despicably. If he didn't intend to exchange her for the
children, why did he insist on letting her go inside?
"Mr. Joseph, considering that I was once a member of Double Dragon Court, I will
exchange myself for them. I'm sure you also know Blake is sick and will die if he doesn't
take his medication soon. I think your intention when kidnapping them is not to kill them,
right? If you're doing this to avenge Blood Rose, then I am the one you should be after."
After thinking about it momentarily, Joseph replied, "Alright, since you mentioned the past
and I'm someone who values past relationships, I'll let you exchange yourself for one of
them. Don't try negotiating with me for anything else, and don't push your luck."
Olivia responded, "Okay."
When Joseph turned to look at the children beside him, who were pretending to be calm,
he couldn't help but smirk inside. They are indeed Eugene's children. Ordinary children
would have been scared and started crying if they had a gun pointed at their heads.
Intrigued, He asked in a low voice, "Do you want to leave?"
The children looked at each other and nodded, "Yes."
But Joseph sighed and tried to turn them against each other. "It's a pity that your mommy
is biased. She says she's willing to exchange herself for Blake. Looks like she doesn't care
about you guys anymore. How about we play a game? You guys draw lots, and the lucky
one will leave? How does that sound?"
North frowned and glanced at Joseph without any fear. "There's no need to draw lots. He is
Blake. Let him leave."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmA surprised look appeared on Joseph's face. How can these children still be so considerate
at a time like this?
He continued, "Do you know that staying means death?"
North said, "Yes."
Puzzled, Joseph asked, "Since you know that, why don't you want to leave? Aren't you
afraid?"
North replied, "We are, but if only one person gets to leave, it will be Blake because he's
sick."
Joseph said, "How touching."
North rebuked, "If you and your brother were in danger, you would also try to find a way to
protect him."
Joseph raised an eyebrow. "What does a little kid like you know? Come on, I will leave it to
fate. Whoever's lucky gets to leave. Otherwise, none of you can go out."
Furrowing his brows even tighter, North thought the chance Blake would get drawn was
too small as it was based entirely on luck. There was no room for cheating.
He thought momentarily and negotiated, "We don't have paper and pen, and it would be
troublesome for you to leave and get them, so let's do it this way. We'll play rock, paper,
scissors. Whoever wins gets to leave. How about that?"
