The minute Luk came back, he told Marina that Jason had run away and asked about the blood on the ground.
"That's my blood. Jason hit me, and I bled," said Marina furiously.
At this time, no one cared about her, asking her whether she was hurt.
"What do you think we should do?" Luk said, "I think we should call the police, at least to protect Tina."
Marina didn't want to tell Luk the truth.
Jason had known Roy's real identity. If he were to be caught, he would tell Oliver this.
At that time, they could do nothing about Jason. She and Tina might lose their lives.
Marina knew that Luk was a good-for-nothing, so she didn't think he could give her any good advice.
At such a crucial moment, Luk was unreliable, and she was on her own.
She warned Luk that if he dared to call the police, she would tell the police who he really was.
He would be most likely to be arrested.
Therefore, Luk did not dare to mention calling the police to save Tina.
Marina knew that Jason would not kill Tina.
She thought that the more important thing now was to get better.
Now that she was lying on the bed, she could do anything so that she had more time to come up with a solution.
She couldn't ask Oliver to save Tina because it would only get her into trouble.
She began to think about which person she used to know would help her.
Suddenly, the man code-named Big Boss came to her mind.
She had hired Big Boss with ten million dollars to get rid of Jessica before.
Then the Big Boss had got the man whose code name was Black Dog to do it perfectly without any trace.
Later, the Big Boss had had Black Dog killed in a car accident.
He hadn't done anything but had got ten million dollars.
Marina took out her phone, found his number, and called him.
But no one answered the phone for a long time.
Marina thought that maybe he was busy.
After a while, she called again.
To Marina's surprise, the phone was connected this time.
Marina was a bit nervous. She had been looking forward to his answering it, but when she finally got through, she got tongue-tied.
"Hello." A deep middle-aged man's voice sounded.
"Hey, Big Boss, it's me, Marina."
"What's the matter?"
"My daughter has been kidnapped and I need your help."
"Okay," said the man, as if the kidnapping was nothing.
Marina breathed a sigh of relief, trusting the Big Boss more.
"Can you send someone to look for her right away? I'm afraid she will be more dangerous, the longer she remains missing."
"How much are you willing to pay?"
Marina hadn't expected that he would ask for money so soon and thought he was being so indifferent.
At first, Jason had Tina, but then she ran out before she was caught again. Jason must be angry now, so Marina was afraid that Jason would torture Tina to vent his anger.
She had no choice but to say, "Big Boss, money is not a problem. You have helped me before. As long as you get my daughter back, I will give you the money you want."
