Recently, Hilda has a deal with Mike, the biggest drug supplier in the Golden Triangle.
The transaction amount is tens of millions of dollars.
I can't even imagine how many drugs are involved.
Hilda is cautious and makes sure she is the only one who knows the location of every major transaction.
She also pays in a special way, so after being in the line for so long, the police still have no conclusive evidence to arrest her.
But this time it is different. Mike has a crush on Hilda. He knows she is married, so when she offers a deal, he asks to see what her husband looks like.
Hilda has no choice but to agree to bring Frances along.
And this is an excellent opportunity.
Frances has notified the US FBI. When evidence emerges, he will call the police.
If she succeeds, Hilda will face the death penalty.
But at the same time, I know this is dangerous.
What Frances has to face is the drug dealer of the Golden Triangle, as well as his love rival.
If Frances is careless, he might even lose his life. How can I let him take such a risk?
However, this is the only chance.
If it doesn't work out, Frances and I might not be able to stand being apart any longer.
"What did Hilda tell you?" I ask Frances.
"She didn't give me the details. She just said she was taking me somewhere the day after tomorrow, but I don't know where or what she is going to do. All I know is Mike will come to the United States that day."
Frances replies in a deep voice.
He is trying to keep his voice down. I don't know where he is making the call.
"Jane, wait for me. This time, I will succeed," he promises.
