Attracted By My Ex-wife novel Chapter 360

Kevin brought the thirty million in cash, along with Anne, to the place that the kidnapper specified on the phone.

At first, Kevin didn't want to take her with him, but she insisted to go this time so he had no choice but to bring her to that place.

Anne stared ahead through the car's window while they were waiting for the kidnappers to show up. Thirty million cash was already a very ostentatious amount, but on top of that, the kidnappers still asked for an extra vehicle.

Since they had decided to give them such a huge amount of cash, they would not care about giving them a car anyway.

"Anne, don't get out of the car once the kidnappers come," Kevin said, looking at her worriedly.

With a smile on her face, she replied, "Don't worry, none of us will be in danger today."

Since the beginning, what Ryan had only wanted was the property and he had never thought of hurting them. She knew that it was least likely for him to hurt either of them now.

Kevin sighed and shook his head slightly.

He constantly checked his watch out of anxiety, until, at last, the time that he had been waiting for finally arrived. Three masked men slowly walked out of the building, holding Ryan.

The building looked like it had been abandoned for a long time.

Kevin looked at Anne, nodded slightly, and then they both got out of the car.

The car that they were driving was a black RV. The kidnappers had demanded so much cash that only this kind of vehicle would fit it.

Ryan got excited as soon as he saw Anne get out of the car. He immediately twisted his body, for which a kidnapper gave him a strong slap on the face.

It was so loud and heavy that his face swiftly turned aside because of the impact. He winced.

And then, he looked back. He thought that he would see Anne worried, but what he only saw in her eyes was disappointment.

The corners of her lips were slightly curled, and she was looking at him in a slightly mocking way. Ryan instantly felt his heart grow heavy. 'But... why? She knew everything! She knew about it all!'

Now that he was all tied up, he looked nothing but a joke in his own.

"Here is the cash that you demanded!" Kevin patted the car and asked with a smile, "Would you like to check it?"

"Of course I have to check it!" One of the kidnappers stepped forward and looked at him vigilantly, his one hand on his pocket. After confirming that it was full of cash, he nodded at his accomplice, implying that the couple held up their end of the deal and gave them the right amount.

"You have promised us that if I give you money, you will release Ryan, right? Now, here's the money, and you can still keep him. We have nothing to do with you from now on," Anne said calmly even though her face was cold, making the people around her feel a little intimidated.

Frowning, Ryan suddenly remembered what she had told him before.

When she tested him, she said that she had been used many times and that she did not want to be used anymore.

So, how sad could she be now?

He suddenly felt a pang of pain in his heart. He gritted his teeth and slowly closed his eyes.

Now that they had come to this point, what else could he say?

"Enough! Let go of me!" When Ryan opened his eyes again, his eyes were full of contempt. He looked impatient with the way he stared at his kidnapper. He couldn't take it any longer.

All cards had been laid out. Now what was the catch? What else was there to do?

The kidnappers looked at each other and gazed at Ryan all confused.

"It's all your choice." Kevin sighed. "Now I have no idea what your real name is, so if you don't mind, I'm just going to continue calling you Ryan. Ryan, all those properties left to Anne - they will never ever be used. Not in this lifetime!

And what's your relationship with the real Ryan? How did you two know each other? That, I don't know. But since you two look so much alike, then you must be really close!

He gave Anne that property so it will continue to be hers. In turn, we gave you thirty million in cash, which should be enough to compensate for everything that you have done to us. That amount of money should be sufficient to cover for the property!

And that's it. From now on, we will pretend that we have never known each other, and we are going to cut you off our lives,"

he said in a very serious voice as he stared at Ryan with his eyes burning from hatred.

Ryan frowned back and looked at Anne, feeling confused and trying to look for answers in her face.

But she just lowered her head to avoid his eye contact. He shifted his gaze towards the van and estimated that the total amount of cash in it must truly be thirty million, no doubt about that. He trusted Anne and Kevin.

At first, everyone was worried whether the couple would call the police. Or there was possibility that they would have arranged for the authorities to ambush their meeting place and wait to capture the kidnappers and everyone who was involved.

Yet there was no one else but just the two of them!

Ryan shook his head. He knew that the game that he had been playing, it finally came to an end.

Ever since he came to A City, his only goal had been as simple as taking back the property from Anne's possession. But now that he already got what he wanted, it was so unacceptable.

He now had thirty million in cash which was equivalent to Ryan's property, and he should celebrate that, right?

He already got the cash. But what about what he lost?

He lost... Anne!

From the words of Kevin himself, he could no longer be friends with Anne. He was practically just a stranger to her now. She had cut him off.

Thinking of this, he shook his head and gave himself a self-deprecating smile. Yes, he was not the real Ryan in the first place, so what was his relationship with her?
