A truck was parked by the roadside. Aside from its front windshield, all the windows were sealed with black tape, making it impossible to see the situation inside from the outside.

At that moment, Charlie was sitting inside the truck, waiting for another message from the kidnappers.

In the driver’s seat, George was also growing increasingly restless.

George’s plan was quite simple: to have his own people successfully take away the money. Then he would use these same individuals to create financial pressure on the Cosmic Tower.

After all, George was in charge of the Cosmic Tower’s external affairs.

Manipulating the financial chain would be all too easy for him.

Managing the financial chain is crucial in business operations. Many behemoth companies have faced enormous crises just because of a single delayed payment.

And now, just by getting his hands on the money, causing tens or even hundreds of billions in losses to the Cosmos Tower would be straightforward.

Though Charlie was currently the chairman, if he were to bring about a significant loss, other shareholders could easily unite against him.

As George was contemplating his next moves, Charlie suddenly spoke.

β€œGeorge, what do you think these kidnappers want all this money for?”

β€œWhat else could it be for? Obviously, it’s for the money. I mean, with that amount, they could live comfortably for the rest of their lives,” George reasoned.

Charlie, however, disagreed.

β€œBut one billion is an excessive amount, don’t you think? Not just for one lifetime, but even ten lifetimes wouldn’t suffice.”

β€œSo, I have reason to believe that they want all this money not just to satisfy their own greed, but for some other purpose.”

Upon hearing this, George started to sweat profusely. Given Charlie’s intelligence, if he began suspecting in that direction, deducing George’s true intent would be rather easy.

β€œBut they’re just kidnappers, right? Their actions are usually driven by money. What special motive could they have?”

β€œTrue, they are after money, but it might not necessarily be my money.”

Saying this, Charlie gestured towards the back of the truck.

β€œDo you really think I’d be foolish enough to bring one billion in cash? To be honest with you, it’s all blank paper in there. I’m just waiting for that guy to show up. Let’s see what he’s really capable of!”

It was all a trap!

Once he understood Charlie’s plan, George was dumbfounded.

Initially, George had thought that Alice was someone Charlie deeply cared about. Charlie wouldn’t risk her life just to catch him, or so he thought. However, it seemed that Charlie was indeed willing to use Alice’s safety as a means to capture him.

Now that his scheme had been exposed, George knew he had to retract all the arrangements he’d made. But with Charlie right beside him, he couldn’t contact his people.

Pretending to check the time on his phone, George was stopped by Charlie.

β€œThe car has a clock. No need to take out your phone just to check the time.”

George knew he was in great danger. If he couldn’t communicate that it was all a trap, he would find himself in serious trouble.

And if the kidnapper he had arranged was caught. it would nose a significant

risk for George.

β€œChairman, I find this situation rather strange. That guy has probably set a trap here. Maybe he wants more than just one billion!”

George tried to persuade, but his words had no effect at this point.

β€œLet’s discuss all this once we’ve caught that guy. I’m eager to see who in

Atlanta has the audacity to kidnap my daughter!”

Both waited, and soon enough, the kidnapper arrived.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Luo Feng had also discovered some clues.

After an investigation, he found that George had recently bought a house in a rather secluded location. For someone of George’s status, buying such a

property was highly unusual.

This was too suspicious, so Luo Feng decided to check it out. fr eeweb novel

Driving to the residential area, he easily gained entry under a false pretext. Soon, he reached the door of the house George had bought.

Two security cameras were installed at the entrance. It was obviously no ordinary place.

Jardins and Alice were most likely here.

Instead of using the front entrance, Luo Feng first went to the room next door..
