Chapter 138
Jerry quickly said, “That won’t do. We need him to ask for ransom.”
When he finished saying that, Tom hit him on the head. “Are you dumb? Why would you say that? Can’t you even keep a secret?
It was a surprise to Olivia. How could someone be bold enough to risk their lives by threatening Ethan for ransom?
Perhaps before they could deliver the ransom letter, Ethan’s men would’ve raided their headquarters.
“How much are you planning to ask for?” Olivia prodded.
Tom stuck out a finger. “He’s rich, so we should at least ask for one million dollars.”
Olivia looked at him in disbelief. “One million dollars?”
They were risking their lives for only one million dollars? Ethan would probably think that they were mocking him.
Noticing Olivia’s gaze, Tom instantly lost confidence. “He’s supposed to be rich, right? He should be able to fork out a million. dollars, right?
“If not… 500 thousand dollars will do.”
Olivia facepalmed herself. This was her first time feeling sympathy for a bandit.
If they asked for one million dollars, Ethan would probably let them leave in one piece.
But if Ethan saw them asking for 500 thousand dollars, he would feed them to the sharks.
Noticing that Olivia was silent, Jerry spoke up timidly, “Um, could it be that he doesn’t even have 500 thousand dollars? Well, what about 200 thousand dollars?”
Olivia sighed in exasperation when she heard them lowering their price even more.
“Oh no, Tom! I heard before that rich people may look rich on the surface, but in reality, they owe the bank a lot.
“Do you think Ethan’s broke? Did we waste our efforts by kidnapping his child?”
Olivia couldn’t stand it anymore and suggested earnestly, “Why don’t you raise the ransom a bit? If not, Ethan might think. that you’re mocking him.”
Tom stuck out two fingers. “Two million dollars, then. Are we being too greedy?”
