"What on earth do you think you're doing?" Wilbur asked.
The beautiful woman frowned at him. "Out of the way. I'm only interested in the handsome one."
"What the f*ck?!"
Wilbur found himself flaring up in annoyance. He was admittedly nowhere near as good-looking as Shepard, but wasn't it a little too much to be kidnapping someone in broad daylight?
Shepard frowned, swinging the Nature Longsword in front of him.
Wilbur said at once, "Now, there's no need to get physical."
It would really be too much if there was bloodshed because of something this small.
Just then, the beautiful woman smiled. "Don't you worry, I'm not going to do much to you. Just come keep me company for a few days, and I'll pay you handsomely."
"Uh, could I ask how much this handsome payment would amount to? Also, who even are you?" Wilbur himself was a little curious. Where did this woman come from for her to be speaking like this?
Despite the fact that Manand did not have the best security, kidnapping a man in broad daylight was unlike anything Wilbur had even seen this far.
The woman glanced at Wilbur haughtily. "My name is Fiona. I'm sure you've at least heard of me?"
"I really haven't," Wilbur said awkwardly. He was not a Manand local and had been too busy the past few days to know much about the people here.
However, it definitely seemed like this lady was an important figure from the way she carried herself.
One of her bodyguards piped up. "Miss Fiona's the daughter of our Secretary of State. Got it?"
Realization dawned over Wilbur at last.
No wonder this lady had the audacity to act this way. She did have the right to do so, to be honest.
"Oh…" Wilbur nodded profusely. "And how much would you be paying my friend here?"
Fiona glared at Wilbur. "Five million."
"In Manand currency?" Wilbur frowned. That was hardly worth much.
Fiona snorted. "In US dollars."
