Chapter 431
Chapter 431 To Kill Her
A bad premonition rose up in her heart.
Sure enough, after hanging up the phone, Allen walked towards her with an evil look on his face.
"Mrs. McCarthy, you're too presumptuous to say you're not worth $200 million. Archie's almost here. I'llnovelbin
take you out for some air and show you how Mr. McCarthy of McCarthy Properties is begging me like a
dog at my feet! Haha!"
After saying that, Allen pulled out a rag and gagged her before lifting her up and heading out.
Natalia's mouth was gagged and she couldn't speak, so she could only whimper and struggle
desperately.
But she was too weak and her struggles were useless. Allen grabbed her and tied her to a rope and
hoisted her up the ship's mast. Her whole body suddenly rose into the air as if it were a flag.
"Woo... woo... woo..."
Allen looked up at Natalia, who was struggling with fear, and put on a cruel smile.
"Don't be afraid! When I get the money, I'll let you go after you give me a ride! Don't worry. I just want
the money and I won't kill you. I have nothing to gain by killing you now except that I will have Archie
hunting me all over the world!"
Allen said, glancing at the watch in his hand, "He's almost here! Just pray that our deal goes well!"
And at that moment, at the other end.
A dozen dark green military cars were parked on the side of the road. Archie was sitting in the car with
a laptop on his lap, and he was skillfully operating something on it.
The door opened and Brian's body poked in from outside.
"Mr. McCarthy, we're all here."
Archie's face was sullen and cold while his fingertips flew over the keyboard. Soon, a map appeared
with a red dot flashing continuously on it.
"Go ahead and set up with this as the center. Under the water, and every fishing boat around it!"
Brian nodded, but still hesitated, "Mr. McCarthy, do you really want to go alone? It's too dangerous!"
Archie didn't answer him. Seeing this, Brian knew that he had made up his mind and could not say
anything else, so he turned around and went to work.
Charlie called him again.
"Archie, I've made the arrangements, and I can pick you up anytime."
"Okay." He nodded, paused for a few seconds, and said in a deep voice, "Thanks a lot."
"Heh."
Charlie laughed, said nothing, and hung up the phone.
Archie said nothing more either, but stepped out of the car and headed for the dock.
On the fishing boat.
Natalia was suspended in mid-air. She was strangled with ropes and felt like she was being cut by
knives. The pain was unbearable.
She felt both angry and scared as she gritted her teeth and managed to spit the ragged ball of cloth out
of her mouth, then looked at Allen, who was leaning against the lower blade, tugging at the rope, and
smoking.
"Allen, don't you go on. Even if you get the money, there's no way this broken fishing boat can take you
away! Kidnapping for ransom will result in a minimum sentence of fifteen years in prison. You should
think carefully! In case you get caught, you might as well go back and turn yourself in now!"
Allen looked up at her coldly. In the night, the burning cigarette flickered on and off, making him look a
little forlorn and ruthless.
"Cut the crap! As long as you're in my hands, let alone a broken fishing boat, even if it's a broken plank
of wood, believe it or not, I can take you far away with me?"
Natalia frowned, "Didn't we agree that you would let me go after Archie paid you? What are you taking
me away for?"
"You think I'm stupid! What if Archie's got people in ambush around here? You must escort me to
somewhere safe, and I'll naturally let you go then!"
"Allen, you're going too far. Even if you're a kidnapper, you still have to have the ethics of your
profession! If you take the money and don't release me, Archie won't be willing! You'd better let me go
now. I promise you. I'll help you plead for mercy. I swear on my honor!"
"Why are you talking so much nonsense?"
Allen threw away the cigarette butt with impatience and looked into the deep dark night in the distance.
After a long time, a man came from afar. His lips curled into a cruel smile as he pulled out his phone
and edited a message, then send out, "He's here."
Natalia was still trying to persuade Allen. Although she knew it was useless, doing something would
ease her concentration so that the weightlessness wouldn't be so unbearable for her.
"Allen, why don't you put me down first! It's uncomfortable for me to be hanging like this! In case you
slip and let go of the rope, I'll fall into the river and die. The water here is so swift. I'm sure I'll die if I fall.
It doesn't matter if I die, but it's not a good deal if you work for nothing and end up dying with me
without getting a penny!"
Allen was so annoyed by her words that he wanted to plug his ears with cotton.
"Allen! Did you hear what I said?"
Natalia shouted breathlessly.
"I heard you. I heard you!"
Allen finally ran out of patience and yelled at her, "Shut up! Your man is here. As soon as he pays, I will
let you down!"
Natalia was stunned.
She looked up and saw a familiar man on the pier.
It was Archie!
Was he really here?
Her face suddenly went pale.
At this moment, her first thought was not for her own safety, but for his injuries.
He had been so badly injured and had only been out of danger a few days ago! The doctor hadn't even
allowed him to get out of bed and walk around, so how could he be so desperate as to come here
himself?
Tears instantly welled up in Natalia's eyes while her heart ached to the core.
Allen became serious too. He held the rope tightly as he waited for Archie to come aboard and
negotiate.
A small boat was parked at the pier. He ordered Archie loudly to come over in the boat, not to dock
himself.
Archie didn't say anything, but took the boat alone and rowed over to him.
However, at that moment, a voice came out from the Bluetooth headset in Allen's ear.
"There's an ambush! Kill her!"
That was all the person on the other end of the line said, and Allen was dumbfounded. He glanced up
at Natalia, then turned his head back to Archie, who was approaching.
"Bastard!"
He suddenly cursed, and before Natalia could react, there was the thud of a gun in the night.
Allen pulled a gun out of nowhere and fired a shot in Archie's direction, then said sternly, "Stop! Don't
come any closer!"
Archie's boat came to a halt.
Natalia was frozen, not knowing what was going on!
"Kill her!"
Once again, the cold command came over the headset.
However, Allen's eyes went stern, but he did not listen to the man's words.
He slowly lowered the rope, while his movements were a little shaky, which showed the panic he was
feeling in his heart.
And Natalia could only see his rapidly changing face and wondered why he was like that.
