Chapter 165 Quiet Entry, Deadly Exit

Raymond gave him an unreadable look.

“Is that so?”

本

The kidnapper didn’t catch the shift in his tone and kept rambling, getting more excited with every word.

“Yeah and this time, one of the targets is a little girl with a serious background!”

He didn’t bother hiding anything. “Her dad is the richest man. He’s willing to pay five billion to get her back. We’ve hit the jackpot this time.”

The grin on his face wouldn’t fade.

Five billion.

Compared to other kid, none of them even came close.

As expected of Thomas’s daughter.

Raymond listened in silence and only spoke once the man was done.

“Do you know where the others are right now?”

“Oh, right!” The kidnapper slapped his forehead, suddenly remembering. “We forgot to tell you. Horus and the rest are in the school’s control room. If you want to join them, I can let the others know and clear the way for you.”

Raymond smiled faintly. “Sounds good.”

Horus used to be one of his men.

They had worked together for eight years. During that time, Raymond had never once lost his temper in front of anyone. He was known as a calm, easygoing boss–something everyone agreed on.

Anyone can keep up an act for a year or two. But to hold it for eight years without slipping- that’s not an act. That’s just who you are.

And people like that are easy to overlook.

Raymond liked being underestimated.

If anything, he preferred it when people didn’t pay attention to him.

Before making a move, he always stayed quiet.

I’ll tell them to let you through,” the kidnapper said, picking up his walkie–talkie and passing long the message.

The moment he finished and turned around, completely off guard, Raymond pulled the trigger.

No warning. No hesitation.

He talked too much.

A sharp bang echoed through the room.

The man dropped to the ground all of sudden. The walkie–talkie slipped from his hand, hitti the floor and crackling faintly.

The other kidnapper froze for a split second before reaching for the gun at his waist.

Too slow.

Another shot rang out.

Two shots. Two bodies.

Blood spread across the floor, everywhere she looked.

Raymond made no move to comfort her. Instead, he walked toward her and stopped right in front of her.

Jenny instinctively tilted her head up, her eyes full of fear.
