Debra met his gaze steadily. "Don't bother trying to scare me. You won't do anything until you get your ransom
The three men were clearly seasoned criminals, and they had a code they followed.
The leader released Debra's chin and shrugged. "True, but if someone else pays us to kill you after we get Juan's money, we'll do just that. You're a dead woman either way. We might as well enjoy the fun.
Debra chuckled, her lack of fear irritating the leader. "What's so funny?" he growled.
"I'm laughing at how naïve you are," Debra replied coolly. "Do you know who Juan is? And who I am? Can you guarantee you'll safely get the money and escape by boat? You can't. And if you touch me, Juan will hunt you down. You know what he'll do to you then, don't you?"
The men exchanged uneasy glances, considering her words.
She added, "I may not be good at much, but I'm stubborn. If you dare to touch me, I'll find a way to kill myself. If you want the ransom from Juan, he will first ensure my safety. If he finds out I'm dead, what will be the consequences?"Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
"Fine!" The leader stepped back and snorted, "Anyway, you're going to die sooner or later. Stay tough as you like. Once we get the money..."
"You plan to kill me after getting the money and then escape by boat while Juan is supposedly stunned, right?" Debra interjected.
The men fell silent. That was indeed their original plan.
Debra smiled, sensing their uncertainty. "You're kidnapping me for money. Money is negotiable, but robbing Juan is not something everyone dares to do. I admire your courage. We could actually make a deal." The leader raised an eyebrow. "What kind of deal?"
"A win-win deal," Debra explained. "I guarantee you'll get the money, and I guarantee I'll die, so you can report back to whoever hired you. And afterward, I'll give you another sum of money."
The three men looked at each other, puzzled yet intrigued. Debra gave an enigmatic smile.
Juan, accompanied by the local security team, tracked the kidnappers to the dock. A single boat was moored there.
Joe, scanning the area, turned to Juan. "Sir, it looks like these. kidnappers plan to escape by boat after getting the ransom."
"We can't let them escape," Juan said, fixing his eyes on the boat. Debra is still inside. Give them the money and make sure they release her immediately."
Joe hesitated, his face grim. "But sir, that's $10 billion."
The Nichols Group had so many projects that needed funds. If they handed over the money, their operations would have to halt. They could. ignificant losses.
Stop talking. Do as I say!" Juan said.
