FreeGoodNovel"Don't you dare touch me! I'll call my brother, and he'll cto save me!" Kate yelled out as one of the thugs
was about to lay a hand on us.
I had almost forgotten about Kate's brother, who adored her so much that in a past life, | believed he was the
mastermind behind everything. But it seemed that wasn't the case.
"This is your last chance. If we don't get the money, you'll regret it," one of the kidnappers sneered before
slapping Kate across the face. The sound of the slap echoed around, leaving a red mark that quickly had her
crying, her earlier bravado completely wiped away. "Make the call!" Trembling, Kate grabbed her phone, glaring
atas she dialed. "This is all your fault, Claire. | wouldn't be in this mess if it weren't for you!"
But my phone rang just as she was about to call her brother. One of the thugs read the caller ID out loud,
"Claude. It looks like someone's getting desperate." After answering, we heard Claude say, "I'm here."

The kidnapper asked fiercely, "Did you bring the money?"
Claude answered, "My assistant is on it. But | need to see them first."
The thug smirked, eyeingand Kate. "Who do you want to save?"
"What do you mean?" Claude snapped from the other end.
The thug chuckled. "Ten million for one. Who will it be?"
My mind went blank. Who would Claude choose this time? "Both."
Greedy, indeed.
"Ten million saves one. If you want both, it's fifty million." The thug suddenly upped the ante.
"Claude, if you don't save me, does it
mean you no longer need my
brother's help? Think about your ambitions and grand schemes! Is it Claire you're after or your glory?" Panicked.
She was afraid Clatide would choose me.
That was when | realized Claude had made his choice involving me. But, for the sake of his ambitions, | was left
behind. And it seemed | was about to be left behind once again.
Claude didn't respond right away.
Losing patience, the thug hung up. Then, grabbingand Kate,

will fetch a nice price."
As they started with my first button, Claude called again, "Let Claire go."
Upon hearing his words, Kate screamed in despair and rage, "Claude, | curse you! You'll never achieve what you
desire! My brother will never let you off the hook!"
But the thugs reneged, proceeding to unbutton my second button, "But we're not keen on letting Claire go."
The men laughed, "Indeed. What man could resist? They say, to die between a woman's legs would be to live a
life of romance, even in death."
Panic set in. Just moments ago, | was worried about who Claude would choose to save.
But even though Claude wanted to savethis taround, the thugs still planned on hurting me.
| struggled with all my might, but with my hands and feet bound and two thugs holdingdown, it seemed
hopeless.
Kate smirked from the side, "Serves you right. You deserve to die!"
But just then, the man on top ofwas knocked out cold by a bat swung out of nowhere.
