After that, Samuel continued with his search. Soon, he received a call from the second squad. "Mr. Hills, there's no one in the construction vehicle and the door is locked. And since it's a heavy vehicle, we can't break the door open. We can only go up the mountain by foot, and we'd need at least three times longer than anticipated."Without thinking, Samuel said, "Run up the mountain! And capture any suspicious person that you run into!"…Meanwhile, on the other side of the mountain, two SUVs rolled across the uneven mountainous terrain. And a few minutes later, they arrived at an abandoned residence and drove into the garden."Get out, all of you!" Logan and the others were roughly shoved out of the car. Besides Joanna, Logan and Manuel had bruises on their faces. But really, the situation wasn't any better for Joanna—her clothes had been ripped, and her hair was a complete mess. And before they could even regain their composure, their abductors pointed the black barrels

"How much?" Logan's eyes widened. "Are you kidding me? I don't have that much money!"A billion dollars! They had quite the guts to state that amount. Did they think that Logan had come from among the wealthiest families in the world?"As the scion of the Sullivan family and an important figure in the Business Association, don't you have that little bit of money?"The man swayed the army knife in his hand and threatened, saying, "Sullivan, I'd advise you to get the situation clear in your head—don't cling onto your wealth and give up your life instead.""It's true that my family is rich, but more than 90 percent are assets, and we barely have liquid funds. Have you met a businessman who would keep all their money in the bank instead of making investments?" Logan answered.The man replied, "That's your problem. If you're unwilling to pay up, then I'm sorry, but you'll have to experience what it feels like to lose everything. "I'll start with her first, then.""My dear, you can

"But I have a request—you have to guarantee our safety. Or else, you won't get anything."A look of delight flashed across Jim's face. After making such a big deal so effortlessly, he could no longer hide the excitement in his heart. He said, "Don't worry, we are men of our word. As soon as we receive the money, we'll release all of you." Logan tried to compose himself and said, "This is a huge amount of money, so it can only be done using my personal computer. Let me go back to the hotel, and I'll immediately transfer it to you."The smile on Jim's face disappeared, and he snorted with a frown. "Will you still pay up after we let you go? Once you return, I'm afraid that the first thing you'll do is call the police to get us!"If I guessed correctly, the person standing outside the door who refused to come in is a high-ranking police officer."Hurriedly, Logan explained, "I don't have the guts to not pay because my fianceé's and Mr. Manuel's lives are in your hands. "I won't

Logan doubted Jim's promise that he would release them. After all, Black Cobra was a group of fearless outlaws. It was as good as a doomed deal to trust their credibility.But now, Logan could only pin his hopes on Joanna, praying that she could safely return to the hotel and transfer the ransom. It was destined to be a long wait, and he could barely keep his patience in check.But in comparison to Manuel, he considered himself to be in a better situation. Next to him, Manuel was gritting his teeth in pain. The open wound on his shoulder was still bleeding and nobody from Black Cobra wanted to treat his injury.For a new upstart like Manuel, an international terrorist organization of Black Cobra's level wouldn't consider him worthy of their time even if they had some financial benefit to gain from him.And since they didn't care for his money, they wouldn't care for his life either.…A few minutes later, the door of an SUV swung open. Then, Joanna, whose head was covered in a

But unexpectedly, the opportunity presented itself very quickly. And not to mention, Joanna had even found out that an encrypted chip was needed in addition to Logan's personal laptop and password.That was three security hurdles to get through, and she had to admit that Logan was indeed a cautious person. But while the kidnapping today was a disaster for Logan, it was a fortunate event for her.With trembling hands, Joanna inserted the chip into the mainframe. After a few maneuvers, the amount in the bank account was displayed on the screen."F-Four billion dollars!" Joanna stared at the string of numbers, her heart nearly skipping out of her ribcage. This money was the fund that the Business Association had allocated for the investment in Tiusto, and it was entirely up to Logan's disposal.Even Logan wasn't sure why the higher-ups were so interested in a small town like Tiusto. Without any precursor, they'd allocated four billion dollars, and it seemed like a last minut

"Who did you ask me to kill?" Jim's eyes were wide, and he thought that his ears were playing tricks on him.Meanwhile, Logan was utterly shocked at Joanna's words. Even Manuel, who was observing with interest, was taken aback.Joanna began again, "I'll repeat myself, so you better listen carefully. "Kill Logan Sullivan." Joanna's cold and emotionless voice echoed once more as she uttered each word clearly, "Kill him, and I'll pay you right away. "By the way, don't leave out that Dakota guy as well, if it's not too much of a hassle. I believe that you won't want to leave any witnesses and potentially reveal your identities, do you?"Blood drained from Logan's and Manuel's faces. His fianceé wanted him dead! If Logan hadn't heard it with his own ears, he would've never believed it.Suddenly, Logan recalled the four billion dollars in his account and connected all the dots. "Are you bloody out of your mind, Joanna Rowland? How could you gang up with the kidnappers for money

The helicopter in the sky continued searching, but they hadn't found anything as well. Regretful, Samuel berated himself for not listening to Woody's words. Instead of holding his ground, he had conceded to Joanna.And going by the speed that they were searching through the mountains with now, they might not find Logan even after dark.…"Who are you?" the officer keeping watch shouted and raised his gun."Don't shoot! I'm Logan Sullivan's fianceé, Joanna Rowland!" Helter-skelter, Joanna stood in the road ditch, her expensive, branded clothes covered in mud and weed. Meanwhile, her stockings were ripped with holes, her hair was in complete disarray, and she was also missing a shoe.After confirming her identity, the search team was overjoyed and immediately reported their findings. "Mr. Hills, we found Ms. Joanna Rowland. She's fine, but she's just a little unnerved and emotionally unstable."According to Ms. Rowland, she jumped out of the car and hid in the ditch while the

Meanwhile at Helenova Ventures, it happened to be one of those rare days where Woody actually showed up at work, which Javier thought was odd.Since he had repeatedly hit a snag in front of Woody before, Javier tried to assign him some work. Because he wasn't completely confident, he only let Woody handle a few documents.In the end, Woody didn't object and gladly accepted the work. Upon seeing this, Javier was filled with regret. If he had known that Woody would be so compliant, he would've given him a more complicated task.Just then, Woody's phone started ringing. After taking a look, he got up and headed out.Immediately, Javier stopped him from leaving. "What are you doing? Did you finish your work?""No," Woody replied curtly."Since you've started on your task, you should see it to its completion. How can you be so irresponsible? I'm telling you, don't think that you can do whatever you please just because you have Ms. Kaiser's support."Then, Javier angrily burst out

"It's you again, you con artist! How could you say that my husband went down the doomed path?"What are you doing here? Are you here to laugh at us because you made a lucky guess? They're trying to save my husband inside there. If anything happens to him, I won't let you off!" Joanna shouted.Hurriedly, Samuel jumped in to explain, "Ms. Rowland, Mr. Henderson is an amazing person. If Mr. Sullivan had listened to him, he would've been fine. But he's also a miracle doctor. With his intervention, Mr. Sullivan will live!""He's a miracle doctor?" Joanna's eyes widened in disbelief.Just then, an angry voice said, "That's bullshit! There's no way he's a miracle doctor. He's just an ex-con, and here he is in the hospital trying to be a con artist again now. The man who shouted was none other than Javier. He continued, "People already hate con artists enough, but on top of that, you're also an ex-con."Then, Javier turned to Samuel and said, "Samuel Hills, what are you planning to d

"My husband was cursed by this con artist and died. I won't let you off!" Joanna chimed in, worried that her acting wasn't good enough. After all, sadness was a tough act. And many people had commented before that her acting was too exaggerated.In the past, she could simply deny it and brush it off by attributing those comments to them being haters. But when it came to such crucial situations, she had to be careful. If someone noticed something off, it might lead to other unforeseen problems.So, Joanna quickly came up with an idea and followed Javier in pinning the blame on Woody. At least then, she could add to the distraction.Meanwhile, Samuel was anxious. No matter how much he explained, Joanna and Javier didn't believe him. What's worse, a crowd had gathered and were standing on Joanna and Javier's side.Now, all of his explanations were utterly useless. Just then, a group of people approached them. "Dr. Maxwell, Dr. Barker, what's brought you two here?" the doctors
