Chapter 3064
"Do you honestly think I'd be a spy?" John scratched his head sheepishly. "I'm just here for the money,
but I just so happened to run into you guys. Now that I'm here, not only will I not get my money, but I
might be killed too. All I'm trying to do is make sure I get out of here alive by helping you guys."
Scarface stared at him for a long time before narrowing his eyes again. "Are you being honest?"
"Of course I am." John grinned. "I, like everyone else in this room, just want to stay alive.
"If you don't listen to my advice, and those people find us..."
John did not need to finish his sentence; everyone in the room knew what would happen to them if they
were found.
One of the men leaped off the bed. "Let's do as he said, Scarface. We'll all split up and each find a unit
to hide in. It's all a game of luck from here on out. Even if we're found, we can't reveal anything about
the rest of us.
"This is far better than staying here and waiting for death to come."
"But..." All of a sudden, one of the more timid subordinates piped up. "If we leave this old geezer
behind and run away ourselves, Tyson will..."
"Let's focus on staying alive first. We'll figure out how to explain this to Tyson later." Scarface sighed
and accepted John's idea. "Let's do as he says. You all know how to break locks, so find a unit each
and hide there. When they come knocking, pretend you live here and claim the money for yourselves.
Then, run for your lives."
With that, he glanced out the window.
The cars were parked in front of their building.
"We're running out of time. Everybody for themselves!"
Finally, he glanced at the man slumped on the ground and frowned. "As for this old geezer, we'll just
leave him behind to fend for himself."
As soon as he spoke, he looked at John.
"Hey, come help me with this!"
His subordinates rushed forward at his command. "What is it, Scarface?"
"Tie these two together. I'll keep an eye on them!"
The rest of the men who were about to leave all froze in their tracks. "Scarface, you can't stay here with
them! It's too dangerous!"
If they were found, Scarface would be pegged as the kidnapper!
’Well, they're bound to find us anyway. At least if they find me, you'll all have a bigger window of time to
escape." With that, Scarface waved and commanded, "Just help me tie them up, then get out of here."
The men exchanged nervous glances and sighed. They helped strap John and Andy together, then
scurried off as fast as their legs could take them.
The only people left in the room were John, Andy, and Scarface.
John's heart leaped into his throat when he caught sight of the gun. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
He thought his plan would work, but he had become the hostage instead!
He never once imagined that Scarface would be willing to sacrifice himself for all his friends' sake!
Whoever was searching for the old man was doing this for a reason. He mattered to them, and if
anything happened, Scarface would no doubt try to leverage his position by using the old man as a
hostage.
Therefore, Scarface would not hesitate to hurt John at all if things took a turn for the worst.
Despair grew in John’s heart when he thought of this.
He was just here to get some quick cash! Who would have thought he would end up in such a
situation?
There was no such thing as a free lunch after all...
