Chapter 588 A Dog Keeped by the Ferro Family
Su Youling frowned, "Auntie..."
"Don't call me Auntie, we're not that close." Mrs. Ferro walked coldly to the sofa and sat down, her posture haughty and sharp. "If it weren't for Rebecca's sake, I would never have agreed to the old man's plan—to let an outsider like you enter the Strange Kingdom."
She said sternly, "One wrong move, and the whole game is lost. Our Ferro family never imagined we'd raise a tiger that would turn out to be our own worst enemy. Su Youling, ask yourself honestly, has Rebecca ever wronged you? Why did you do this to her?"
"Madam, I'm so sorry." Su Youling responded calmly, her expression unchanged even though her arm was almost broken by the bodyguard. She looked at the once powerful woman without flinching. "Although I implicated Rebecca this time, the grievances have their perpetrators, and the real people who kidnapped and harmed Rebecca are Shen Xiyue and Ye Qing's group. I'm trying my best to rescue her..."
Mrs. Ferro interrupted her sharply, "What plan do you have in mind? Ye Qing has already visited the Ferro family. I didn't take him seriously anyway. The person they want to target is you, and the conditions they want are also about you. The old man even went to talk to you personally, but you're still dragging your feet and refusing to give in!"
“Madam, I didn’t!” Su Youling frowned.
No wonder Madam Ferro was so angry; it seems Ye Qing rushed back to Atlantis early and went to make trouble for the Ferro family.
She was simply curious—Mrs. Ferro was, after all, a rational and wise strong woman, so how could she so easily compromise with Ye Qing, an accomplice in kidnapping?
Old Master Yin was like this, and so was Mrs. Ferro, which made her think more deeply.
There was no time for Su Youling to think further, so she could only explain as quickly as possible, "Rebecca and I are like sisters, and I have been very grateful for the help the Ferro family has given me over the past five years. I don't know what Ye Qing has instigated, but I trust your judgment."
“At the time, it involved the child, and I did consider it for a while, but I never intended to abandon Rebecca. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have had such a big fight with Li Tingxi and returned to Atlanta alone.”
Mrs. Ferro became even angrier upon hearing the name 'Li Tingxi'. "You keep saying you treat Rebecca like a sister, that your children and men are family, but isn't she family too? Every minute you delay, my daughter suffers for another minute!"
Seeing that she was determined to continue her unreasonable behavior, Su Youling suppressed her doubts and coldly struggled, saying, "Let me go!"
The bodyguard glanced at the angry Mrs. Ferro and tightened his grip even more, saying, "Don't move, or we won't be polite!"
Su Youling's expression turned cold as she said icily, "I'd like to see how impolite you can be—breaking into a private residence in the dead of night. Mrs. Ferro has a good reputation; do you really want to make tomorrow's headlines for such an absurd crime?"
Mrs. Ferro glared at her fiercely, then gave a sarcastic smile. "What? Getting angry now? Not pretending to be a docile little white rabbit with sisterly affection anymore?"
She stood up coldly, looking down at Su Youling. "Even if I kill you right here today, no one will know—"
No sooner had he finished speaking than the sound of orderly and hurried footsteps came from outside.
"Ms. Rebecca, are you alright? Are you in any danger?" The security captain ran over with more than a dozen men in neat uniforms.
The door was being pounded on loudly, quite aggressively.
Mrs. Ferro's face darkened, and she found it difficult to...

He retorted, "You're nothing but a dog kept by the Ferro family, yet you dare to call for outside help?"
"Madam, is this the quality and sinister face of high society?" Su Youling was not a pushover. Since the other party was determined to cause trouble, she would not back down. "I work for the Ferro family, but I have climbed up from the bottom step by step with my own abilities over the years. The financial statements of Strange Kingdom in the past five years are more impressive and reliable than the total profits of the past ten years combined."
“I was appointed CEO of Strange Kingdom on behalf of Old Master Yin. This matter has nothing to do with Rebecca’s kidnapping. One thing at a time. I have wronged Rebecca, and I will make amends in my own way. My remorse does not mean you can humiliate me at will.”
Mrs. Ferro was furious and raised her hand high, shouting, "You!"
“The security company’s people are all outside. The senior security guards here are always carrying recording devices, and there are also official media accompanying them…” Su Youling stopped there and warned coldly, “If you delay any longer, and they break down the door and see you like this, then it will be really hard to explain.”
Mrs. Ferro's anger flickered, and after a long while, amidst increasingly anxious inquiries from outside, she signaled to her bodyguards, "Let her go!"
The bodyguard coldly let go.
Su Youling shook her aching arms, feeling a cold sweat break out on her forehead from the pain—if she was tormented any longer, both of her arms would be ruined!
She opened the door and asked the security personnel to patrol the area.
Then, the door was never closed again.
Mrs. Ferro looked at the cautious security guards pacing back and forth outside and sneered, "You think that just because you've hired this rabble, I can't do anything to you?"
“Perhaps we can have a proper talk.” Su Youling touched the necklace. “I will leave the Strange Kingdom according to Shen Xiyue’s conditions and disappear from Li Tingxi and the children’s sight. But how can you guarantee that a cunning and treacherous woman like Shen Xiyue will really release Rebecca?”
Mrs. Ferro sneered, "If she dares to go back on her word, I will make her and the people behind her pay the price! They cannot afford the cost of being enemies with the Ferro family."
"Now that you've figured it out, did you come all this way just to take your anger out on me?" Su Youling asked, puzzled.
Mrs. Ferro calmed down, glanced indifferently at the necklace around her neck, and said coldly, "I can't wait two days. Rebecca is not in good health, and every day she suffers is another day of danger. You are also a mother, you should understand my feelings."
"I've had all the accounts and projects from the Strange Kingdom compiled. You'll be at the company tomorrow morning to hand them over; Ye Qing will be waiting for you there."
"Once the company handover is complete, you can leave Atlanta by ship. I've already bought the ticket, and you'll find out where you're going once you're on board."
"What?" Su Youling stood up in shock. "You want me to leave tomorrow? But..."
She has her own plans!
She needed three days to find Rebecca as soon as possible and use the company as an excuse to keep the scheming Shen Xiyue and Ye Qing at bay.
But Mrs. Ferro's intervention completely disrupted her plans!
Are you really going to have her abandon her child and drift away on a boat, not knowing when she'll ever be able to return?
Even assuming there wasn't an ambush on that ship, how could she be sure there wasn't one?
