After that, Betty really didn’t make a sound.

The man took advantage of this moment and covered her mouth and nose with

a cotton cloth soaked in a sleeping drug.

Betty didn’t even have a chance to make a sound before passing out.

Then, the man hid with Betty under the bed. He didn’t come out until Diana and

the others left the room. Unexpectedly, another child had been left behind in the

same room.

It was a stroke of luck.

The man grinned. “You’re very obedient. You’re a good kid.”

Also, a bit of a simpleton. He really didn’t make a sound when told not to.

Children from these wealthy families were like this. They were overly protected,

naive, and utterly foolish!

The little boy in front of him didn’t disappoint his expectations.

“Mister, I want to negotiate with you.”

Sean calmed himself down, and began negotiating with the man.

“What kind of negotiation?” the man asked.

“Is what you’re doing right now called kidnapping?”

The man was momentarily stunned by Sean’s question, then burst into laughter.

“Yes. It’s kidnapping.” He put a finger to his lips. “So you mustn’t shout or

scream, or my next step will be to kill the hostage I have.”

Julian had taught Sean and Betty safety lessons before.

Sean understood immediately.

“Okay, I won’t let you do that. I’m scared of that happening.”

The man was speechless.

Why did he feel like he was being led around by this little rascal?

Plus, this child was unnervingly calm. He didn’t seem entirely naive.

The next moment, his thoughts were uninterrupted as Sean asked again,

“Mister, take me with you and leave my sister behind. Does that deal sound

good to you?”

He was the older brother.

Moreover…

Julian wasn’t as worried about him.

If he was the one who got taken, Julian would likely remain calm when they

discovered this. The calmer Julian was, the better the chances of rescuing

Sean.

In any case, it would be easier to deal with the man taking him hostage than

letting him take his sister.

The man burst into laughter instantly.

Despite initially thinking that this child had a bit of a domineering attitude, it

turned out…

This boy was really naive and foolish!

He chuckled, and nodded in agreement. “Alright, I agree.”

Sean hadn’t expected the negotiation to go so smoothly. During his safety

lessons, his teachers said that negotiations were complex. They said it required

both psychological tactics and eloquence, often resembling a protracted battle.

But here…

This man had agreed so quickly.

Was there a catch?

Thinking about this, Sean stepped back and asked, “Why did you agree?”

The man was taken aback.

His eyes darted around slyly, and said, “It’s simple. You’re a boy. Boys are

usually heirs, so taking you gives me a bigger bargaining chip.”

Sean didn’t agree with what he said. Julian wouldn’t, either.

Inheritance had been discussed in the heir’s course. It emphasized that

inheritance was based on capability, not how much they could flatter their

predecessor.

In other words, the one with the ability should be the heir.

However, Sean didn’t argue. Judging by the man’s attire, he was someone who

would say such stereotypical things.

Since he said it like that, it meant that he believed in it.

Sean felt relieved instead, and no longer suspected any deception. “Okay.”

He obediently approached the man. “Put my sister down and take me with you.”

The man smiled.

Surprisingly, he actually placed Betty back on the hospital bed. Seeing a

glimmer of hope that Betty might be left behind, Sean broke into a genuine

smile.

Trading his safety for his sister’s was worth it.

Sean laughed, content; it seemed his first negotiation had been successful.

Soon, a piece of cloth covered his mouth and nose. As his consciousness grew

heavy, Sean’s eyes fluttered open twice. But he saw it clearly: his sister, who

The man had changed his mind.

He intended to take both Sean and Betty with him!
