Xavier had justified his actions by saying that this was the only way for them to get the money.
He dropped his bossy attitude and poured out his frustrations on lan. When he spoke about his
struggles, he even shed emotional tears.
lan’s heart was instantly softened. After thinking it over, he contacted Ron on Xavier’s behall
When they were carrying out the kidnapping, lan was constantly on edge. He warned Ron repeatedly.
“Do not hurt the child.”
If they merely held Bethany captive, they still had a chance of getting off the h ook lightly, but if she was
harmed in any way, the consequences would be catastrophic.
lan’s conscience wouldn’t allow him to do something so cruel to a child.
Ron agreed readily. Initially, he followed lan’s instructions and sent videos of Bethany regularly,
confirming that she was alive and well. As time passed, Ron’s patience grew thin as Kevan continued
to delay paying the ransom. He had called lan several times to complain in arage.
In one of the videos that he sent lan could clearly see the bruises on Bethany’s face. Terrified for their
lives, he quickly sent money to placate Ron, urging him to not harm Bethany any further. However,
once the money was gone, the effects didn’t last long.
A week ago, Ron did not send any videos of Bethany at the designated time, lan panicked and called
Ron, but his phone was inactivated.
Refusing to give up, lan topped up Ron’s phone with a hundred dollars to reactivate it. Now the call
could go through, but no one picked. up the call.
Extremely worried, lan dropped everything he was doing and took a cab to Ron’s place in a ghetto. Ron
was living in a run-down bungalow. At 9 pm, the bungalow was in complete darkness.
Lan knocked on the door continuously and shouted Ron’s name, but he did not appear at the door.
Instead, a neighbor shouted in response, “Stop shouting! His place has been empty for two weeks, so
he’s probably back in jail” lan’s heart sank to the pit of his stomach
Ron’s family had long abandoned him. Even if he sought them out, he wouldn’t get any information
about Ron from them. On the other hand, he couldn’t go to the police station to inquire about Ron’s
whereabouts either. In the end, lan could only return home empty-handed, filled with anxiety and worry.
For the following week, lan had been desperately searching for Ron, but there was no sign of him. lan
lived in constant fear as he didn’t dare to tell Xavier about this, so he tried to hide the truth for as long
as he could.
lan had hoped that the investment from Fantasy Utopia would make Xavier forget about the hundred
million dollar ransom, but he didn’t expect Xavier to still be fixated on that money.
“1—” lan hesitated as beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. The look of anxiety became more
apparent on his face.
Finally, Xavier noticed lan’s uneasiness. He straightened up and stared lan down with a piercing gaze,
making lan shudder inexplicably.” What’s wrong? Did something happen with that friend of yours?”
lan hung his head to avoid meeting Xavier’s eyes. Stammering, his teeth chattered from nervousness.
“Mr. Seymour, I’m sorry but I can’t reach my friend I’m afraid that he has been arrested by the police.”
