My Second Husband novel Chapter 999

Hearing Eudora's words, Naomi remembered it too.

"That's right. Where is Nelson?"

As they were talking, the door swung open, and a man came in.

"Are the both of you awake?"

Without thinking, Eudora got up and stood in front of Naomi.

"What do you want? Don't hurt us. Everything can be negotiated!"

After all, this was not her first kidnapping.

The man laughed instantly. He said, "Very well, I like talking with a straightforward person like you. But I haven't done thinking about what I want yet. I'll tell you later!"

With that, the man was about to head out.

Naomi couldn't help but ask, "What about Nelson? What did you do to him?"

The man snorted and said, "Nelson? Are you talking about the guy who's not afraid of death? He's not quite as smart as you are. He tried bargaining with us and asked us to let the both of you go first. He is quite the daydreamer, isn't he?

Do you think it's easy for us to kidnap you all? How dare he say that! We taught him a lesson. He should still be alive, though I bet he is not doing too well!"

Naomi was dumbfounded and exclaimed, "You won't get away with murder!"

The man sneered, "Do you think people like us are afraid of your threat?"

Eudora tugged at Naomi and shook her head at her.

"My daughter is immature. Don't bother arguing with her. Nelson is a friend of hers. As long as you can ensure his safety, money is not an issue."

The man snorted once more. He said, "Unlike kids nowadays, you are more polite. Let's call it a day! We're tired of beating up the guy, so let's rest until we figure out how much money we want!"

After that, the man turned around and left.

Naomi was a bundle of nerves as she said, "Mom, will Nelson be okay?"

Eudora shook her head and reassured her, "Don't worry. People like them are after money, they probably won't really kill anyone. When I have the chance, I'll ask again."

Naomi nodded and then looked at Eudora.

"Mom, why did you stand in front of me just now? I know self defense. You don't have to protect me next time. I can protect you!"

Only then did Eudora come to her senses and said, "I'm fine. It's a mother's instinct!"

Soon, dawn broke.

Amos still didn't find anything. Tina sent some food over and tried to persuade him.

"Amos, please eat something first! Eudora won't feel at ease if she knew that you didn't eat or drink anything!"

Amos shook his head and rejected her, "No, I'll go and have a look again!"

He lost his appetite at the thought that Eudora might not get anything to eat.

Tina was helpless. She knew it would turn out like this. However, there was nothing she could do. She was in no mood for breakfast, let alone Amos.

After Amos went outside, his cell phone rang. He picked it up and asked anxiously.

"Speak!"

Harley spoke solemnly, "The perpetrators are very likely to be a group of kidnappers that we've been investigating recently. This crew has been kidnapping and blackmailing rich people for

money..."

Harley hesitated for a moment, and Amos's heart skipped a beat.

"What else?"

"It's nothing..."

"Say it! What else have they done?"

Only then did Harley tell him. He said, "They are quite ruthless. There were a few times that the hostages were murdered even after getting the money!"

The words sent a chill down Amos's spine, and he clenched his fist tightly.
