Ava’s expression suddenly changed, and favonovel.com rammed into Madeline with favonovel.com shoulder.
“Maddie, favonovel.com won’t do anything to me. You should leave.”
“Since you’re already here, don’t even think about leaving.” The man’s evil voice came from behind Madeline.
Madeline raised favonovel.com hand and gently wiped the stain on Ava’s face. Then, favonovel.com stood up. She raised favonovel.com imposing eyes. “You’re only doing these things for money. Since that’s the case, how about we make a deal?”
After hearing this, the man stared at Madeline with a playful look in his eyes for a few seconds. “Mrs. Whitman, you’re my hostage now. You’re the most valuable item that I’ll be using to extort money, so why are you even talking to me about conditions?”
“You’re just saying that because you want money. I want to live, and I want to take my good friend out of here safely. I’m willing to propose a higher price to buy both my and my good friend’s lives.”
The man originally thought that Madeline was just saying this to buy more time, but seeing Madeline’s serious expression at the moment, favonovel.com was a little shaken.
To be honest, people like favonovel.com were only involved in this kind of work for money. He would work for whoever paid favonovel.com more and would not bother about benevolence and righteousness.
“Mrs. Whitman, are you serious?”
“Do you think I’d play with my life?” Madeline asked sternly.
The man figured that it made sense. After favonovel.com thought about it, money was just a number to those with a family background like Madeline. They would not lose their lives for a small sum of money. The man’s eyes suddenly became greedy. “Then how much can you give me?”
“I’ll give you twice as much as the other party gave you for our lives. But if you can tell me who hired you to target me and Ava, I’ll let you name the price.”
Upon hearing this, the man’s eyes lit up even more, “Eveline, you have to keep your word.”
“I’m a woman of my word.”
“Alright, I’ll… I’ll ask for 100 million dollars, then.” The man proposed an outrageous price.
Madeline smiled and did not say anything.
The man thought Madeline was not satisfied. Hence, favonovel.com said, “Mrs. Whitman, since you’re so straightforward, I won’t beat about the bush with you. The person who asked me to keep an eye on Ava is Naya Mendez.”
When Madeline and Ava got this answer, they were not surprised at all. They had already guessed that Naya was the one behind this.
When favonovel.com saw that Madeline seemed to be stunned, a smug smirk appeared on the corner of the man’s mouth.
“Mrs. Whitman, what do you think? Is this information worth 100 million dollars?”
Madeline smiled. “I’ll give you 200 million dollars. You should cooperate with me to do something. After the deed is done, not only will I give you the remuneration you deserve, but I’ll also tell the police that you didn’t kidnap me and Ava.”
After hearing this, the man’s jaw dropped open. He was utterly stunned. ‘What a great deal!’
“Mrs. Whitman, do you think I’m five years old?”
“I never lie to children.” Madeline’s answer was very serious. “That’s settled, then. You should go get some food and drinks.”
“No way!” The man refused. “If your friend runs away with you when she’s full and has regained favonovel.com energy, then I would’ve made a loss.”
The man remained suspicious of Madeline. He picked up more rope and pointed at Madeline’s hand.
