*Sir…” Joe tried to advise again. 

Juan cut him off. “Nothing is more important than Debra’s life. Do you understand?” 

Joe swallowed hard. “Yes, sir. 

He swiftly ordered their men to unload bundles of cash from the trunk. Aboard the boat, one of the kidnappers pressed a knife against Debra’s neck. They climbed to the highest deck, and one of them shouted.” Bring all the money up here. Don’t try anything foolish, or we’ll kill her.” 

Joe instructed the bodyguards, saying. “Get all the money up there. 

The bodyguards sprang into action, carrying bundle after bundle of cash onto the boat. Debra watched coldly 

Once the last bundle was on board, Joe used a megaphone to declare. 

You’ve got the money. Let her go. 

The kidnappers tore open the bundles, their eyes widening at the sight of the crisp bills 

“Alright, let her go,” instructed the leader with a grin. 

Hidden in a secluded corner of the shore, Shelia watched with a mix of

now hundreds of meters away. One of the guards shouted, “The kidnappers threw the hostage into the sea. Go rescue her!” 

The security team sprang into action, but the vast sea revealed no sign of Debra, 

Juan’s blood ran cold, and his voice trembled. “Get the boat moving!” 

“I’ll do that,” Joe acknowledged, taking the wheel himself. 

The security team split up. One group chased after the kidnappers while the other went out to search the sea. 

“Debra, you never expected this, did you? Hahaha…” Shelia sneered, confirming Debra’s fall. 

Satisfied, she quickly left to avoid being discovered. 

Night fell, casting a dark shroud over the sea. The search teams scoured the waters for six hours, but Debra’s whereabouts remained unknown. 

Juan had been drifting at sea for what felt like an eternity, his body and spirit on the brink of collapse. 

“Sir, let’s go back. The rescue teams are here, and our people are on it too. Mrs. Nichols will be fine,” Joe said, though the hope in his words rang hollow.
