Chapter 462 I’ll Take Her Down With Me
A chill ran down Chloe’s spine as she felt her blood run cold.
The leader threw a knife at the tanned, thin man. “We’re out of bullets. Use this to get rid of her.”
The latter picked up the knife and walked toward Chloe.
Blood drained out of Chloe’s face. The door was locked, so she had no place to run to. She screamed loudly to gain
attention.
“Help! Is there anyone out there?! Please save me!”
“Stop screaming. This village has long been abandoned. There’s no one else except us.’ ”
Chloe felt like she had fallen into an abyss. The last bit of hope in her was ruined and replaced with despair.
When the man saw her charming face, he felt some compassion for her. “Be good. Don’t struggle. I’ll do it quickly,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtso you won’t feel any pain.”
When Chloe saw the brick at the corner, she decided to risk it. Although the chances of winning were next to none,
she had to do something in the face of impending danger. Under his gaze, her eyes turned watery. She pointed at
the beer on the floor. “Sir, can I have a sip? After I’m drunk, I won’t be scared anymore.”
The man was stunned for a moment before he chuckled and looked at the leader. “She fancies a swing of your
beer.”
The leader threw over a can of beer. “Girl, don’t blame us for being cruel. You’re just unlucky. Finish this can of beer
and off you go.”
After Chloe got the beer, she retreated to a corner. She seemed to be drinking beer, but she secretly stepped on
the brick. She was wearing a very long windbreaker, so it hid her legs. Naturally, they could not see her actions.
After gulping down half a can of beer, she pretended to be drunk as she slowly squatted. When the man saw that it
was almost time, he walked over to her.
Chloe met his gaze. After extreme fear hit her, she was filled with a deep desire to survive. She could not die. Her
child had yet to see the world, and they could not die this way.
The man narrowed his eyes and aimed at the throbbing artery around her neck. He raised his knife high and was
about to slash her. The clean knife would have turned bloody, but someone’s phone rang at that inappropriate
time.
Holding the knife, the man stopped what he was doing and turned to look at the leader.
The leader asked the man to stop before he picked up his phone.
“The cash is ready. Where should I go for the deal?”
Joseph’s voice came from the other end of the phone, biting cold and restrained.
The leader was flabbergasted, not expecting Joseph to have acted so quickly. It was clear that the Whitmans were
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmas rich as a country. He gave Joseph an address and the deal would be carried out two hours from then.
“Record a video of Chloe every fifteen minutes during this period and send it to me. I want to know that she’s safe.”
The leader thought for a while before answering, “Okay. Don’t try to pull any tricks.
Otherwise, I’ll take this bitch down with me.” He then hung up the phone. “Don’t kill her. Keep her alive first.”
Hearing this, Chloe relaxed. Crystal-clear sweat could be seen on her forehead and she quietly put down the brick
behind her.
During the two hours, they contacted a ship to help them cross to a foreign country illegally. They wanted to run
away under the cover of darkness. One of them was in charge of keeping an eye on Chloe.
Although she was wearing a loose windbreaker, she was still wearing the gown she wore for the show. She was
merely two months along, so her bump was indiscernible. When the night breeze blew at her, it sent her hair flying.
She looked so thin and feeble as if she was a flower in the breeze, appearing pitiful and adorable.
The man could barely resist it. “Sir, we’ll be leaving after this. How about we enjoy ourselves a little first?”
A cold male voice suddenly came to them before the leader could speak.
“You’re courting death.”
“Who’s there?!” The leader immediately became vigilant as he looked around.
