The Unshackled Queen: Never Say Never

Hannah finally looked at her and said, “You talk too much.

Does she think she’s safe just because she’s hiding overseas? I won’t let either of you escape.

”

Meanwhile, Melina, unaware of Ryleigh’s messages, hadn’t responded-not out of choice, but because someone had already seized her phone.

Melina had assumed she was secure, hidden away in another country.

But as she returned to her hotel room, she realized someone was already there, waiting for her.

Sensing danger, she quickly turned to flee!

But a cold voice stopped her.

“Do you prefer I shoot your left leg or your right?”

Melina spun around, locking eyes with the man and woman in the room, her gaze shifting to the guns they held.

“I don’t know who hired you, but I have money! I’ll pay you double! In fact, triple, four times more! Just let me go!”

Dilan and Kite exchanged a glance.

They had researched Melina’s background before accepting Hannah’s task.

Toying with her, Kite pretended to be swayed by greed and nudged Dilan’s gun.

“Can you really offer that much?”

Seeing a glimmer of hope, Melina nodded eagerly.

“Name your price!”

“They paid us well.

Failing the job would cost us not just money, but also our reputation,” Kite said, showing Melina five fingers.

After pausing for a few seconds, she added, “But money is always key in our line of work.

I want ten times what we were promised.

Can you afford that?”

Melina quickly replied, “Five million? Sure! I’ll transfer it now!”This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

“Ha ha.

” Kite sneered and flipped her hand.

“I meant ten times five million.

You owe us fifty million.

”

“What? Fifty million?”

It wasn’t that Melina refused to pay; she simply didn’t have fifty million on hand.

She had left with only twenty million, and her family was currently in crisis, unable to provide such a sum.

Seeing Melina’s hesitation, Kite’s smile grew.

She put down her hand and said sweetly, “Seems like you’re short on cash, aren’t you?”

After a moment of silence, Kite continued, “Since you can’t settle the debt, you must face the consequences.

”

“No.

.

Don’t do this!” Gritting her teeth, Melina frantically searched her mind for an escape.

“There’s another way…”

“I have an idea,” Kite suddenly said.

With that, she stood up and began to approach Melina.

Panicked, Melina took several steps back, turned sharply, and tried to flee.

But as her hand reached for the door handle, she felt a sudden sting in her neck and blacked out.

Kite massaged her wrist and glanced at Dilan.

“She passed out.

Should we bundle her up and send her back?”
