Chapter 2373
Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
âMrs. Whitman, if you don't want your delicate skin and tender flesh to be hurt, then cooperate.â
His meaning was very clear. He wanted to tie up Madeline as well, just in case.
âMaddie, don't listen to him. You canât trust people like him at all. You should leave as soon as you can,â Ava advised, worried that Madeline would be implicated by her.
Madeline looked at Ava and gave her a reassuring smile.
âAva, since I'm here, I'll return with you. Don't worry, I believe that money can solve many problems in this world, including the problems weâre facing now.â
After Madeline finished speaking, she simply stretched out her hands to the man. âGo ahead.â
âAs expected of Jeremyâs woman. How courageous.â The man praised and quickly tied Madeline's hands. As soon as he was done tying her hands, the man received a call.
He glanced at Madeline and Ava who were already tied up and went outside to answer the phone with confidence.
Ava sighed depressedly. âMaddie, how did you get kidnapped?â
âItâs almost like what happened to you. He suddenly knocked on my car door and I didn't have time to react,â Madeline explained, not wanting to tell Ava that she had to compromise and get into the man's car because she was worried about her safety.
âSigh.â Ava sighed again. âI didn't expect the grudge between Naya and me to get to this level.â
âThis has nothing to do with you. Nayaâs the one whoâs sick in the head.â Madeline looked at the door and vaguely caught a glimpse of the man talking on the phone. âI'm afraid heâs talking to Naya.â
Just like Madeline expected, Naya was hiding in the bathroom and on a call with the man. The police and the family of the woman who died had yet to come to make a fuss with her.
She was overjoyed to learn that the man had even kidnapped Madeline. She was being locked in the abandoned electronics factory with Ava.
She wanted to use this chance to get rid of Madeline and Ava, but she did not want to get into trouble.
Hence, she could only use this man for now.
âwhat are you going to do now that youâve kidnapped Eveline and Ava?â Naya tried to figure out the man's next plan.
âI kidnapped them for money, of course. Isn't this what you keep reminding me about, Miss Mendez?
One of them has a rich mother while the otherâs husband is the richest man in Glendale. I have to get as much money as I can from them no matter what.â
âThey can indeed get you a lot of money, but I have to remind you that Jeremy loves Eveline very much. Since you've kidnapped his wife, he won't forgive you even if you flee to the end of the world.â
There was a hint of intimidation in Naya's words.
The man was silent for a few seconds, seemingly panicking.
âAnd what good tips do you have, Miss Mendez?â
âIâm just saying... Just take it as though Iâm talking to myself,â Naya said with a sinister smile on her face. â
Once you get the money, you should just leave those two there and have others rescue them.
Otherwise, if those people manage to rescue the two before that, Iâm afraid that youâll have to spit out the money you already have. Not only that, youâll spend the rest of your life in prison. If necessary, I think you can just kill them.â
âKill them?â
âThatâs right.â Naya continued to scare him and egg him on. âIf you canât kill them, their parents and husband will kill you.â
oo When the man heard this, he was clearly panicking. Naya hung up the phone happily. She knew she already had this in the bag.
She then hid her phone in the cabinet of the toilet before walking out.
The moment she walked out, someone suddenly pushed the door open and barged in.
âNaya, come out!â
