Chapter 357
Starting with A Divorce novel (Ainsley and Cason)
Chapter 357 I Have a Job for You âLet me remind you a bit. We are now in the village, not the mountains, which means, if you hit me, the villagers will find out and interfere.â Chad tried to scare Manuel, but his hand, which was bolting the door, had betrayed him.
âRelax. Iâm not here to beat you up today. But I do wonder why you keep targeting her,â Manuel said.
calmly.
On his way here, Manuel had made up his mind, thinking, if Chad is holding a grudge against Ainsley, then Iâll have to send Ainsley away, even if sheâll hate me for this. I mean, being hated by her is better than putting her in danger.
Knowing that Manuel didnât intend to hurt him, Chad let out a sigh of relief with his body relaxed.
But he still looked slightly nervous.
The fact was that Manuel had long thought of how to deal with Chad, knowing that only by filling.
Chad in on what was going on between Manuel and Ainsley would Chad tell his intention to kidnap Ainsley.
âAinsley is my ex-girlfriend. But I only split with her because I had to. There was some misunderstanding between her and me back then. So, now you see why I was angry at you for kidnapping her, right?â
Chad scratched his head and growled in a slightly sullen voice, âYou should have told me earlier! If I had known about your relationship, I wouldnât have attacked her no matter what.â
Manuel took the opportunity to ask about Chadâs motive, âSo you only did that because you wanted 960 thousand dollars?â
âWhat else could it be?â Chad sighed. âActually, there is more to it than just 960 thousand dollars.â
Chad looked helpless and started to confess everything.
âYou are that desperate?â Manuel found it rather reckless for Chad to deal with the whole thing like that, thinking, in a small place like this, even if Chad managed to get the money, the police would find him eventually.
âAll right. Iâll forgive you for what you did in the past. But you are not allowed to get close to Ainsley.
anymore. Otherwise, I will never let you off.â Manuel didnât want to corner Chad.
And of course, Chad did not want to lose Manuel as well since Manuel was just so resourceful.
Therefore, Chad nodded several times in a row. âOf course, man! Since you have asked, also, Iâm now aware of the relationship between you and Ainsley, no, Ms. Easton, I will definitely not do that again.â
Manuel snorted lightly, thinking, finally! It is over!
Despite that, for Manuel, the whole kidnapping thing was actually a blessing in disguise.
Manuel thought, Chad is at the end of his rope since he chooses to kidnap.
That means I can proceed with my plan with Chadâs help.
Actually, I was thinking of carrying on my plan after reducing Chad to an abyss of despair. But it seems that Ainsley has just saved him from that.
âChad, are you very short of money?â Manuel tried to bait him.
Chadâs eyes me crazy.â
lit up as he said hurriedly, âMan, I am. Iâm about to starve to death. Poverty is driving Manuel stared at Chad and continued to bait him. âI have a job for you. Do you want it?â
Chad said hesitantly, âWhat kind of job?â
âWeâll get paid 320 thousand dollars for it,â Manuel said.
His ears buzzing, Chad widened his eyes, taken aback by the amount..
After a long time, Chad stuttered, âWhat is it that comes with a payment of 320 thousand dollars?â
Then Chad hurried to add, âAs long as itâs not about murder and any arson attacks, then Iâm in. Man, I trust you.â
Hearing this, Manuel thought, he has taken the bait.
Now letâs see whether Chad has got what it takes.
Manuel narrowed his eyes and calmly told Chad why he was here in the village in the first place. âSomeone has offered 320 thousand dollars wanting me to find out the truth about the explosion.
in the Wade Group back then. Thatâs why I am here.â
Chad was stunned upon hearing the mention of the Wade Group. There was an expression of horror on his face.
âWho on earth are you?â Chad asked cautiously.
Manuel pretended to show Interest in the money. âChill out. I am just a private detective, and I was only offered the job by chance. As long as we find the truth, we can get money.â
âWho is the client?â Chadâs face was full of inquiry.
Hearing that, Manuel gave him a cold look, his tone full of warning. âChad, in our line of work, we have to turn a blind eye to many things. You can never pry.â
Noticing that Manuel was serious, Chad began to buy the fact that Manuel was a private detective.
âChad, this is 320 thousand dollars weâre talking about. Are you not tempted? If it were not for the fact that you seemed to know a lot about what happened back then, I would never have offered you the job. Think about it. If we succeed, each of us can get 160 thousand dollars.â
Chad was tempted, thinking, this is 160 thousand dollars that we are talking about! How am I supposed to not be tempted?
With the money, I then could leave Ocala and stay far away from these people.
That being said, that person is just too powerful. Every time I thought of what happened that year, I could not help but tremble.
Chad closed his eyes. The next thing he knew, those miserable screams and cries for help sprang to mind. In the explosion, some people were blown to pieces, some were blown far away, and some had their limbs blown off.
The ground was stacked with bodies and stained with blood.
Chad sighed gently as he opened his eyes slowly and looked at Manuel, who made the fear fade away.
Noticing that his body was still sore from the beating Manuel gave him yesterday, Chad thought, /
canât wait any longer.
I have to get the money and leave this place!
Since Iâve offended Ainsley, I might already lose that opportunity to get those 960 thousand dollars. And nobody knows whether Ainsley will call the police or not.
âI am in!â Chad bit the bullet.
âThen take me to the pharmaceutical factory now, something flashed across Manuelâs eyes as he Starting with A Divorce novel (Ainsley and Cason)
ï¤Chapter 356 said.
Chad clenched his fists, breaking out in a sweat. âOkay.â
At the border of Ocala, where Chad intended to kidnap Ainsley, Chad and Manuel crossed the mountain range and walked up to the top of the mountain. Only then did Manuel find that there was a valley here.
But the factory wasnât in sight.
Chad faced the valley. âThat pharmaceutical factory is right here.â
Manuel frowned. âHere?â
The continuous mountain range formed a line of defense, with lush weeds and trees on it. But other than that, nothing was in sight.
Chad took a deep breath as he stomped a bit. âRight. It is right under our feet.â
Manuel thought, under our feet?
Manuel frowned, thinking, now it makes sense why Roman failed to have his people locate the factory despite trying hard.
Thatâs because the factory is located in the mountain range!
âThe Wade Group had dug a hole under the mountain range as the factory since the place is full of all kinds of precious herbs, which later served as the raw materials of the pharmaceutical factory.â
Chadâs voice was distant.
With his feet on the ground, Manuel tried hard to suppress the excitement in him.
