Chapter 430 Kidnapping for Ransom
Seeing this, Charlie couldn't say much.
"Be careful and play it by ear. For that kind of desperate madman, you don't need to talk nonsense to
him. If you can't, just get him killed. We'll protect you in the shadows."
Archie nodded.
Half an hour later.
Natalia was awakened by the sound of footsteps.
Her head was still a little dizzy and her eyes were too heavy to open. She managed to open her eyes a
little, and then all she could feel was darkness around her. There was a light coming in from a distance
and she could faintly see a man moving around.
What was this place?
she thought unconsciously. As far as she could remember, she had only just come out of the hospital
and had wanted to go and buy Archie some of his favorite Chinese food, then got in the car and ...
Natalia frowned and thought in a daze. And then what happened to her?
The memory was mobilized and she shuddered hard.
No!
Natalia came to her senses instantly and bounced off the floor almost subconsciously.
It was dark all around her, with a little light coming through an unlocked door in front of her.
Her hands were tied behind her back and her feet were also tied. The wooden floor beneath her
smelled salty and damp, while the wind whistled in her ears like she was on a boat.
On a boat?
The knowledge gave Natalia a slight jolt. Her wrists hurt from being tied so tightly. She frowned and
struggled to free herself, but instead of breaking free, she made her wrists more and more painful.
Her heart sank slightly and she pursed her lips as she struggled to move towards the door. With that
ray of light, she looked through the doorway to see the man moving around outside.novelbin
His back ... looked so familiar!
She searched hard in her memory and soon remembered. It happened that the man turned around at
that moment and confirmed her suspicions. Sure enough, it was Allen.
"Allen!" She shouted out, "What did you tie me up here for?"
Allen was waiting anxiously for an answer from Archie.
When he heard the voice, he turned around and saw that she had crawled to the door, so he hurriedly
walked over to her, and with fierce eyes, he kicked her in the shoulder.
Natalia didn't stand still and fell backward.
Allen followed her in, turned on the lights in the cabin, and took her to the side. Then he said sternly,
"Behave yourself! Or I'll kill you right now!"
His movement touched the wound on Natalia's calf. She grunted in pain and frowned.
"Allen, what are you trying to do? I'm warning you, what you're doing is considered illegal
imprisonment. It is against the law!"
Natalia said calmly as she kept her wits about her.
Allen smiled grimly and crouched down in front of her, then took out a cold, glittering dagger.
"Imprisoned? Against the law? Do you think I'm afraid of that now?"
He spoke to her as if to himself, "The Stevenson family is out to kill me, and if I don't kidnap you, do
you think my future will be any better than prison?"
Natalia's eyes deepened, "I'm not one of the Stevenson family. What does that have to do with me?"
"What do you think?" Allen's eyes suddenly went cold and stern with a touch of hatred.
"If you hadn't ratted me out to Archie, and Archie had told Charlie about it, would I be in this situation?
Natalia, you were lucky you didn't get killed last time. If you had just kept your mouth shut, maybe I
would have let you go. But you are so ignorant, then I will have to kill you. Let's all die together!"
Natalia trembled and stepped back.
"What do you want? You want to kill me?" Her voice trembled slightly too.
"No!" Allen shook his head, "Wouldn't killing you now be a waste of time? Don't worry. Your life is worth
200 million. I won't kill you until I get the money."
200 million?
Natalia froze for a moment, and at that moment, Allen's mobile phone suddenly rang. He took it out and
glanced at it, then headed out.
The door was closed and Natalia could faintly hear voices outside.
"Are you here yet?"
"..."
"I'm warning you! You only have a total of two hours. If you're not here in two hours or if you pull any
tricks, wait until your woman is dead!"
The phone seemed to hang up at that point. Soon after, the door was kicked open and Allen walked in.
Natalia looked at his gloomy face and said in a trembling voice, "Allen! Are you crazy? This is
kidnapping for ransom!"
Allen laughed coldly, knelt down and pulled her by the hair, then said through gritted teeth, "You think I
don't know this is kidnapping for ransom? If there was a second fucking way out, would I do this? 200
million! Even if I get the money I'll be hunted by the Stevenson family and the McCarthy family and the
police for the rest of my life. What's the point of having 200 million!"
He slammed her head against the wall, as if in a fit of rage, to vent his anger.
Natalia grunted in pain and gritted her teeth, "Then why did you do it?"
"Because they're sending me to jail! Do you understand what it means to be in jail?"
Allen was cranky at this point for some reason and looked at Natalia fiercely.
"They're all perverts in there! Can I go in there and come out in one piece? I didn't have a choice! They
forced me to do it!"
"No! You brought the trouble to yourself!"
Natalia restrained her fear and said in a stern voice, "If you just embezzle public money, the most you
get is a couple of years in jail. But if I die, it's blackmail and murder. You'll be sentenced to death!"
"Don't you even think about it? Do you think I would be worth 200 million? If you let me go now, I can
even help you plead for mercy. As long as you fill in the shortfall, maybe you won't have to go to jail at
all. After all, you are Charlie's uncle, and Kenya's father, aren't you? Just for the sake of Kenya and
Alma, they won't make it too hard for you!"
Allen seemed to hesitate for a moment.
His eyes twinkled as if he was considering her words.
Natalia hurriedly continued to persuade him, "Allen, the two of us have no grudges. If you hadn't tried to
hurt me last time, I wouldn't have told Archie about you. If you let me go now, I can guarantee that I will
help you plead with Archie for mercy."
"And Alma won't see you go to jail either, right? What are you afraid of when you have us both to plead
for you? We're all relatives, so we can talk about anything without completely falling out. If you insist on
kidnapping me now, when the police get involved, there will really be no turning back for you!"
As she was saying that, Allen's mobile phone rang again at that moment.
He gave Natalia a stern look and instead of walking out this time, he answered it right in front of her.
Natalia didn't know who was on the other end of the line and what he said, but she saw that Allen's
face was getting darker and darker.
