NovelOnlineLucas's calm demeanor truly bewildered several of the kidnappers. After all, Lucas and Claudia's lives were in their hands, so they had no reason to fear him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe leader, the one they all referred to as Boss, had a particularly terrifying scar running across his face, almost splitting it in half. He held a sharp knife in his hand and tapped it against Lucas's face provocatively.
"I doubt you'd dare to play any tricks on us. Where's the card? Which pocket? Maybe we'll consider loosening your restraints once we get the money." Claudia trembled on the side, feeling the kidnappers getting closer and closer. She wanted to move closer to Lucas for safety, but her efforts were in vain. While Lucas had his blindfold removed, Claudia was still considered insignificant by the kidnappers. They paid her no attention, let alone loosen her restraints or remove her blindfold.
Claudia's fidgeting irritated the leader. He slapped her hard, sending her crashing to the ground.
"What the hell do you think you're doing, you little wench? I'll teach you to move around! You better watch yourself, or I'll drag you out and shoot you! I'm sick of these damn crybabies. Have we done anything to you yet? Do you think we're playing house here?" he raged.

Lucas could not believe they entertained such despicable thoughts. He started panicking. "I can give you the money. My grandpa can prepare a lot of money, but all of this has to be under the condition that our safety is guaranteed. You can't touch the girl either!" Claudia, knocked down by the man, dared not make a sound. She only whimpered softly, afraid that if she made a sound, the kidnappers might get angry and really take her away.
The other kidnappers becsomewhat displeased at Lucas. "Hey, who do you think you are? You're not the high and mighty young master of the Rivera family right now. You're our hostage. It's easier for us to squash you like an ant than to squash an ant itself! How dare you order us around? You should know your place!" However, despite their words, they did not dare lay a hand on Claudia. They kept up their facade, deferring to the leader's authority. It was evident to Lucas that this leader held the most sway among them. The leader did not seem angry; instead, he chuckled softly. "Young people are dating younger and younger these days. You rich kids are no different from us. Tell me, have you two ever done it?" The leader approached Lucas, even draping his arm over his shoulder, filling Lucas with a sense of malice. He felt like he might vomit from the man's foul odor, but he remained outwardly calm. "We don't have any relationships between us," Lucas said evenly. The leader seemed intrigued, even ignoring his lackeys' urging to inquire about how to deal with the girl.
"Don't let this kid fool you, boss. This girl is useless. We might as well have sfun with her," the lackey En persisted.
Lucas's heart raced; he could not rescue Claudia with his hands and feet bound. He could not bear to see her defiled by these criminals. Sa *h the (F)indNvI. et website on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.
