The moment Abelyn saw Dustin, the dam broke and she started sobbing loudly.
"That's enough. Stop crying. He's already here to pick you up. Why the hell are you crying? Go on now!" With that, he pushed Abelyn forward.
Of course, he was already fully prepared to make an escape.
The half a million was already safely taken away. He only needed to turn around, slide into the car, and leave immediately after.
Thud! Due to the force of his push, Abelyn fell to the ground.
"Are you okay? Did he hurt you?" caressing her hair, Dustin asked anxiously.
At that moment, Abelyn was so touched words failed her. Hence, she merely shook her head in response.
Soon, the car zoomed away, leaving only Abelyn and Dustin behind.
The kidnapper only wanted money and not Abelyn's life. Naturally, after receiving the money, he would immediately take flight. Little did he know that Larry's men were already lying in wait for him for a long time.
"I'm fine. Don't worry," Abelyn choked out.
In the car, Caspian reported over the phone in a low voice, "They're here, Larry."
"Everyone get into position. The target is approaching us. Standby," Larry ordered icily. Finally, the car appeared in their line of sight.
"Who are you guys? What do you want?" the man who kidnapped Abelyn demanded in a trembling voice while staring at Larry and the other men in wide-eyed horror.
"I want half a million!" Larry replied bluntly.
What?Half a million? The man was stunned.
How does he know about the money?Or is he and that Dustin guy in this together?Damn it! How dare they play this trick on me?
