“Joseph.” Hayden called his name subconsciously.
To her surprise, Ted heard her words clearly and immediately choked her throat, “Who is her?”
“If you dare to choke her again, you won’t get a dime.”
Joseph’s face darkened and his eyes looked fierce.
The trunk slowly opened in his back. There were 400 bullions in that two big aluminum suitcase.
Ted was taken aback, “It’s 20 million yuan?”
“30 million yuan.”
Joseph said a number indifferently. “You can have this money right away if you let she and that boy go.”
“You’re in no place to bargain here.”
Ted then sneered “Tell the cops to back up. Put the car key here. I will naturally let then go after I arrive
at the port.”
Joseph frowned and glanced at Blossom.
Kidnappers always had the upper hand in this sort of negotiation.
Blossom had a gesture and those special soldiers with anti-explosion shield slowly stepped back,
leaving Joseph’s Porsche on the open lot.
Clutching at Hayden’s shoulder, Ted was holding a knife at his other hand. Those three thugs behind
him were dragging Benjamin. They all moved towards the Porsche cautiously.
Hayden can feel that Ted was nervous and can even see the dotted sweat on his face with the corner
of her eyes. There was no way that this greedy man would be willing to die.
She then lowly said, “Let go of Benjamin. He had passed out and will only be a burden for you. I’ll come
with you.”
“Who the hell are you?” Ted laughed, “Don’t you think I know that this boy is the valuable one here?”
“I...”
Hayden knitted her eyebrows and was about to say something, but she then noticed that Blossom was
sinking at her and realized something and just shut up.
They had already moved to the trunk.
Looking at all the bullions in the suitcase, these outlaws all looked greedy, but they also knew that if
they didn’t leave this place soon, they wouldn’t be able to enjoy all the money.
Ted ordered, “Bring these two suitcases to the front seat and we will just board the ship directly after we
arrive at the port.”
The yellow-headed thug hurriedly closed the suitcase. But after trying to lift them, he seemed worried.”
“Boss, these are too heavy. We at least need two people to carry them.”
Those 400 bullions weighted about 400 pounds and one person won’t be able to lift them up.
Ted frowned and loosened his grab on Hayden’s shoulder. “That boy had passed out and is easy to
control. Bring him to the car and ditch this woman.”
Hayden the realized why Blossom would wink at her before.
Joseph had already guessed that it was inconvenient to carry two suitcases of bullions and all five of
them won’t be able to fit in the car, so Hayden wound definitely be ditched as long as Ted didn’t find her
identity.
Hayden just froze on the spot and can’t even move her legs after they drove out.
It would be a lie of she said that she wasn’t nervous. No one could be truly calm if his/her life was on
the line.
Joseph sprinted forward and hugged her, “It’s okay now.”
His voice was shaking and wasn’t calm like before.
Hayden didn’t come to herself after a while. Clutching at Joseph’s cuff, she said worryingly, “What
about Benjamin now?”
Joseph’s eyes darkened, “They won’t get away.”
On an abandoned road near the highway, there was white Porsche racing.
Sitting on the passenger seat, Ted tried to remain calm and called, “Yes, meet us in the harbor in about
twenty minutes. We’re almost there.”
Right after he hung up the phone, the yellow-headed thug said anxiously, “Boss, we’re out of gas.”。
The fuel gauge indicated low now and the car speed was obviously slowing. The car completely
stopped in the middle of the road after a few minutes.
Ted was furious and kicked the door violently. “Shit. They are messing with me.”
Several black sedans had already chased them. A dozens of husky men then stepped out of the car
and they just encircled Ted’s car holding guns.
“Don’t come over.”
Ted got off the car and dragged Benjamin out from the back seat. While chocking his throat with one of
his hands, he pointed a gun at Benjamin’s temple.
“I’ll shoot him right away if you dare to come over.”
“I don’t believe that you will actually do it.”
Joseph’s voice was incredibly clear in the middle of nowhere. Walking out of those muscular men, he
dressed in a fit coat and looked tall and strong.
“I’ll kill him right away.”
“Be my guest.” Standing straight, Joseph was indifferent. “I’ve already saved who I want to save. I’m
not police, so I don’t really care who do you want to kill.”
“The one you want to save?”
Ted’s face changed, “Who is that woman?”
Joseph smiled, “She is my fiancé.” Hearing his answer, Ted suddenly remembered that woman
screamed “Joseph” when he showed up.
Measuring Joseph for a while, Ted suddenly let out a laugh, “Are you Joseph Beckham?”
Joseph answered coldly, “You should know my way of dealing with things if you know who I am. I don’t
care the slightest whether I can save this boy. But if he dies, my fiancé would be heartbroken and you
would really be dead.”
Ted suddenly relaxed and laughed, “You are just so in love, huh?”
Staring at Joseph as if he wanted to find something from his face, Ted suddenly said, “Joseph, you
should really let me go or you will be struck by lightning. Do you even know who I am?”
Joseph frowned unnoticeably and didn’t respond.
At this moment, Rebekah hurriedly got off a car but was dragged by one of the bodyguards. Unable to
go near them, she struggled and screamed at Joseph’s back, “Joseph, don’t listen to him. He is just a
psycho!”
Seeing that Rebekah was here, Ted suddenly let out a weird and frightening smile. He then said,
“Joseph, you’re going to love this secret, I’m your biological father.”
