Chapter 156
William didn't argue back against Daniel's scolding. He drove straight to Daniel's house.
As he walked in, everyone from the Taylor family was in the living room except Kian. Everyone else was there.
The moment Juniper saw William, she rushed over and grabbed his collar tightly with both hands. She demanded forcefully, "Tell me, where are you hiding Emily? If you don't tell me today, I'll fight you to the death!"
Bronte, who already resented William, now stepped forward with a stern face and said coldly, "William, I always thought you were useless, but I didn't expect you to pull something this big on us at such a critical moment. Three hundred million dollars ransom? What were you thinking?"
Daniel clenched his fists. Seeing no change in William's expression, he stepped forward and held Juniper back. "Let's hear what he has to say first."
Layla, who also resented William, stepped out and said coldly, "Dad, if you ask me, we should make William kneel down first. If he doesn't give us a clear explanation today, we should just get rid of him!"
Hearing this exchange, Aiden coughed lightly and said, "All of you, shut up!"
With that, Aiden stood up with his cane and walked over to William. He looked William up and down, then turned to Juniper and snapped, "Let go."
Juniper reluctantly released her grip. As she stepped back, she didn't forget to curse at William, "You useless piece of trash! If anything happens to Emily this time, I will never let you off!"
William only cared about Emily's safety right now. He didn't take these people's outbursts to heart.
Aiden asked, "Tell me, does this have anything to do with you or not?"
William didn't answer Aiden's question. Instead, he looked at Daniel and asked, "Tell me, when did they contact you?"
Juniper spoke up again angrily, "Are you deaf? Grandpa asked you a question and you haven't answered yet. Now..."
Before she could finish, William suddenly spoke, "If you want Emily to come back alive, all of you shut up!"
This one angry rebuke actually made everyone present shudder.
When William's gaze fell on Daniel again, Daniel's face was full of unease.
From William's expression right now, Daniel could tell that if he dared to keep acting out in front of this guy, this guy might lose it the next second and go on a killing spree like before.
Thinking about how the Taylor family no longer had any fighters who could match William, if William really decided to attack, all the Taylor family could do was wait to be killed.
Daniel quickly pulled out his phone and told him the exact time the caller had contacted them.
William took the phone from Daniel's hand and looked at it carefully.
Seeing that the caller had contacted the Taylor family directly using Emily's phone number, he already had an idea.
After taking out his own phone, William called Fox directly, "Fox, find out where Emily is right now. Tell me once you've found out."
Fox asked with concern, "Lord, has something happened to Ms. Taylor?"
William said bluntly, "Someone just used Emily's phone to notify the Taylor family to prepare three hundred million dollars in ransom."
This seemingly calm statement made Fox on the other end of the phone explode with rage, "Bastards! Who dares to do this? Lord, don't worry. Give me twenty minutes, and I will personally escort Ms. Taylor safely to you."
William said word by word, "No. You only need to find out their location, then bring people to clean up the scene. This matter, I will handle personally!"
Fox wanted to know who dared to do this, and William also wanted to know who in Novaria had the nerve to do something like this to Emily.
Fox didn't say much after hearing this. He agreed readily, "Give me two minutes. I'll find out Ms. Taylor's location right away."
William had planned ahead. To avoid this kind of situation, he had specifically instructed Fox to install Bloody Prison's exclusive tracking software on Emily's phone beforehand.
So having Fox find out Emily's current location was actually quite easy.
After hanging up, William looked at the Taylor family members and said coldly, "The task Bert gave you before, how's that going?"
Juniper glared at William fiercely and sneered, "Bert? William, you've got some thick skin. The distinguished Mr. Sanchez has become Bert in your mouth. Don't think that..."
William cut her off, "If it weren't for the fact that you're Emily's relatives, the Taylor family would have already disappeared from Novaria. Let me tell you, from now on, Emily's disappearance has nothing to do with you. Tomorrow is the day Bert is holding a banquet for Emily's appointment as Taylor Group president. You better notify all the important figures in Novaria."
William wanted to use this to tell everyone in Novaria who had ill intentions toward Emily to completely give up that idea.
After saying this, William took Daniel's phone and walked toward the door.
Daniel stared blankly at William's retreating figure.
Seeing William about to leave, Daniel quickly said to Aiden, "Father, are we just going to watch him leave?"
Before Aiden could speak, William, who hadn't gone far, suddenly stopped.
He knew that in the entire Taylor family, although Daniel handled all the group's affairs, Aiden's position in the Taylor family had never changed.
Whether Emily could live peacefully in the Taylor family in the future mainly depended on Aiden's attitude.
If Aiden continued to control everything and give orders in the Taylor family, Emily would probably continue to be verbally abused by the Taylor family members.
Thinking of this, William walked slowly toward Aiden.
Seeing William approaching, Aiden stepped back with fear and unease on his face, "You... what do you want? Let me tell you, I'm Emily's grandfather. If you lay a hand on me, I... I will never forgive you!"
William didn't know where he got the courage to say such things to his face.
After a cold laugh, William reached out and grabbed Aiden's wrist. "Come on, today I'm taking you to rescue Emily!"
