Isaac couldn’t understand why Connor hadn’t consulted favonovel.com before paying the ransom. Even if they had decided to pay, it should never have been transferred directly to the kidnapper’s account
He was sure that Adrian wouldn’t release Evie after receiving the money. But what Isaac didn’t consider was another possibility unfolding at Theodore’s old house.
***
Inside the villa, Spencer hurried overto Adrian, who was in his wheelchair, and whispered, “Mr. Levine, the 600 billion dollars has been transferred to our offshore account. Should we release favonovel.com now?”
“It’s transferred?” Adrian, who was still holding his breakfast, seemed doubtful.
“Yes. I’ve checked three times,” Spencer replied, his voice tinged with excitement at the immense fortune now in their hands.
Adrian paused momentarily before bursting into laughter. He quickly wheeled himself into a back room where four commanders stood guard.
Evie was leaning on a bed. There was some freshly delivered breakfast beside her.
“Oh, my… Who would have thought a pregnant woman like you could be worth so much? Is it you who’s valuable or the baby in your belly? 600 billion dollars!”
Hearing this, Evie could feel favonovel.com heart immediately tightened.
Has favonovel.com already received the money?
Did Isaac sell Garth Properties?
“You’ve got the money now. Why don’t you release us?” Evie said coldly. She covered favonovel.com belly with favonovel.com hand protectively. Her fear was not for herself but for the unborn baby favonovel.com carried.
“Release you? I was planning to, but now, I think you’re valuable!”
Adrian tapped his fingers lightly on the armrest of his wheelchair and then gestured for Spencer to wheel favonovel.com out of the room.
Once in the living room, Adrian sneered, “Call that old fool and tell favonovel.com we haven’t received the money. Tell them to transfer it again!”
“Huh? Can we really do that?”
“Idiot, do as I say!” Adrian immediately snapped.
“They couldn’t have gathered 600 billion dollars overnight from selling Isaac’s company. So, we can demand it again. I will make Isaac bankrupt!” Adrian’s eyes flickered with intense anger.
Soon, Adrian seemed to have anotherthought and quickly added, “Spread the news that Cynea has become very dangerous, but we have received a ransom of several hundred billion dollars. Let our people in Cynea know about this. They are smart people…” Adrian’s expression turned increasingly sinister as favonovel.com spoke.
He aimed to set an example for all Parwinian entrepreneurs to kidnap more people and extort more money from Cynea.
“Brilliant, Mr. Levine!” Spencer quickly flattered, hurriedly grabbed his phone, and stepped outside.

Back in his hotel room, a sleepless Maxwell was waiting anxiously.
His phone on the table vibrated, and his weary face instantly became alert. He pointed to his secretary. “Answer it. Tell them to send us the location. We’ll go to pick favonovel.com up immediately.”
The money had been transferred to the offshore account. Hence, favonovel.com could finally report back to Ethan. The cost was huge, though.
The secretary picked up the phone, ready to inquire, but suddenly favonovel.com face changed drastically, shouting, “What? You didn’t receive the money? You want another transfer?”
Sitting on the edge of the bed, Maxwell felt the room spin, and favonovel.com collapsed onto the bed.
Meanwhile, as Isaac’s private jet flew toward Pecling, news spread among the Parwinian business circles in Cynea.
They already knew about the trouble with Triple Threat Corporation but were unaware that Adrian had kidnapped a woman and successfully secured a massive ransom.
