Regret Came Too Late (Grace and Ethan) novel Chapter 372

But no one answered Jodie's question as Tim had already got into the car.

Jodie stood there, feeling her blood boiling. She wished nothing more for Grace to die right then and there.

Her eyes were red-rimmed from crying. When she turned around, she bumped into Yancey, who was planning to go out.

She started crying again and couldn't help but ask, "Yancey, are you going to see Grace too?"

Yancey's expression was calm as he ruffled Jodie's head. "Jodie, go inside."

Jodie was too sad to talk, so she just went inside.

On the other hand, Yancey kept standing there. He stood for ten minutes, making his legs stiff and numb. Suddenly, his phone rangs, and a panicked voice came through it.

"Mr. Henderson, one of our men has died. The money you gave us doesn't even cover it. You need to pay for his death."

If Grace were here right now, she would definitely recognize his voice. It was Ronald, one of the kidnappers that wanted to kidnap her today.

Yancey let out a cold laugh. "How is five million dollars not enough? You guys are going through security soon, right? Relax, I've already transferred the money to an overseas account. Don't come back again."

Ronald stopped his words. He knew that five million dollars was enough to buy a person's life. Besides, they were gangsters—their lives were worthless.

What happened today was really complicated. Initially, it was Jodie who contacted them and told them to hit Grace with a car. She would give them 200 thousand dollars after that.

But then Yancey came to them and wanted to increase the amount by a million dollars. He wanted them not to hit Grace but to kidnap her to the suburbs and pretend to rape her.

They didn't understand why Yancey wanted to do this. They couldn't make sense of the twists and turns in wealthy families. In the end, they were just getting paid to do things.

But what happened with Grace was an accident. She was so ruthless that she took a life away with just a strike. That really scared them.
