The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge (Anna and Justin) novel Chapter 1711

It was a premeditated murder.

“This is bad, Captain Thompson.”

Another subordinate darted over, breathless and drenched in sweat. “The perpetrator, Brian Wise, is holding a person hostage on the roof of the building.

“If we don’t let him go, he’ll jump off the building with the hostage.”

The subordinate handed the phone to Ralph.

Ralph took the phone and stared anxiously at Brian yelling at the cops while holding a girl hostage in the video.

When he realized the pale-faced, teary-eyed girl was Carrie, his eyes bulged, his heart sank, and his blood ran cold.

He could not believe his eyes.

The ever-calm Ralph, even at a close encounter with armed drug traffickers, panicked and ran upstairs.

Yasmin, her eyes bloodshot, ran to Ralph with a teddy bear.

“Is the hostage Carrie? Is it Carrie?” She sobbed

Ralph nodded solemnly.

“I’ll go with you.” Yasmin was on the verge of a breakdown.

“I know you’re anxious, but your presence will make matters worse. You don’t know much about the perpetrator, and you are not well-versed in negotiations. If you anger him, he might just slit Carrie’s throat.”

Ralph eased the strain in his tone and looked deep into Yasmin’s tear-filled eyes. “Trust the cops. Trust me.”

“Mr. Ralph, please save Carrie by all means.”

Even though Ralph was a thorn in Ryan’s side, Yasmin had to put all hope in him.

“Don’t worry. I will risk my life to save Carrie. I’m a cop, and it is my duty.”

Ralph sternly said, “Don’t alarm Ryan yet. He’s a firecracker. If he finds out, he’ll barge here with backup and blow up the school. If you want Carrie to be safe, do as I say.”
