to a comer. 

Ella hadn’t even made a move when Jenny, unable to hear it any longer, kicked Grace aside and pulled Ella co 

Jenny said, “Stop disgusting us! Sir, we don’t know her. She’s the wife of the president of the Rhys Group. Ask the store clerk, she should know this shameless woman. Her fanvily is rich! She’s just pretending to be poor to avoid paying the ransom!” 

Jenny’s words made the robber point his gun directly at Grace. 

Grace, terrified, crouched on the floor, nearly wetting herself. 

e president of the Rhys Group?” 

The robber asked the staff member. Do you know her? Is she really the wife of the 

“Yes, she is the staff member said. 

The staff member, familiar with many wealthy individuals, recognized Grace 

The robber said. “You were pretending to be poor? Now you owe me 20 million dollars! I want 20 million dollars the robber said. 

Grace nearly fainted. She couldn’t even come up with 10 million dollars, let alone 20 million. If Harry found out, he’d surely call her a spendthrift and wish her dead. 

The robber ordered her not to disturb others and to arrange the ransom quickly. 

Grace, trembling could only hope the police would take down these criminals. 

Just then, there was a commotion in the ventilation duct. Police had sneaked in to assess the situation. 

Unfortunately, they were spotted. The police were killed, enraging the robbers. One grabbed a civilian and aimed at the surveillance camera. 

“If you try anything else, more prople will dier said the robber. 

Then, a shot rang out, and the civilian died. Everyone trembled in fear 

The stench of blood filled the store. The victim’s eyes were wide open, showing their unwillingness to die, but they didn’t even twitch after falling. The grisly sight silenced everyone. 

The robbers then covered all the cameras. Gradually, ransom payments started arriving. The shutter doors opened intermittently, and some people left safely. The first thing they did was break down in tears. 

The media quickly arrived on the scene, reporting the situation. When Jaden saw the news, he held his breath 

was inside. 

He saw a familiar figure in the footage of the robbers killing someone. Ella was 

The Willow family could definitely afford the ransom. The robbers confirmed that paying the ransom would ensure the hostages” release. Fewer and fewer hostages remained inside. Those with moderate wealth were released at a discount and soon left. 

The last few who couldn’t even raise 100 thousand dollars were killed in front of the surveillance cameras 

Now, only five hostages were left alive, Ella, Jenny, Grace, and two others who were to be used as shields for the robbers‘ escape. 

“Aren’t you three supposed to be rich! Why hasn’t anyone paid your ransons yet?” asked the robber. 

The robber eyed the three of them menacingly Ella broke out in a cold sweat. What was Finn doing? 

The robber allowed her to make one more call. She quickly called Finn, but there was no answ 

answer. 

Ella tried to call her arretary, but again, no response. Slar called a board member, but the result was the same. It was as if the entire upper management of the Willow Group had vanasled 

“What’s going on?” Jenny asked worriedly 

Ella’s face turned pale. Had something happened to the Willow Group 

“No one is answering. I can’t reach the finance department. No one’s paying the ransom said Ella. She had to tell the truths 

Jenny’s face grew tense, and the silently squeezed Ella’s hand. 

Grace, overhearing this, couldn’t help but laugh. 

Grace said, “Ella, I didn’t expect you to die here too.” 

Chapter 64 

Ella ignored her. The robbers heard her and began to draw their guns, ready to kill her on the spot. But after some whispered conversation, they decided to take the three of them along 

They demanded a helicopter from the police, planning to escape the country. For the hostages” safety, the police had to comply. 

The cyber police began tracing the overseas bank accounts and had initial leads. 

They bounded the helicopter, abandoning the other hostages and taking only the three w 

Ella knew that even if the robbers managed to escape, they wouldn’t spare her or Jenny. She suspected what their plan was, 

The helicopter flew over the sea. Every country had territorial airspace, and without being international criminals, they couldn’t easily fly out. 

Traveling by sex was the safest. Once they left territorial waters, they would be relatively safe. 

There were already people waiting to pick them up. 

It was a luxurious cruise ship, looking more like a group of aristocrats out for a pleasure trip rather than a band of robbers. 

The people inside were of various races, men and women dressed in formal attire. Waiters in tailcoats carried drinks and moved through the crowd. Inside, it was a scene of revelry and celebration 

Last time, Ella had boarded a smuggling ship filled with fugnives, reeking of the strong smell of the sea 

But this time, it was a completely different world. 

She even wondered if she had gone to the wrong place. 

This. Where are wet A criminal’s lair? This… this doesn’t seemwight at all,” Jenny stammered, her voice trembling with fear. 

“I don’t know. This place is unusual. These people don’t seem like good guys, Ella said. 

The three of them were taken to a room and handed over to a beautiful woman with pale skin. 

“Clean them up and take them away,” said the robber 

Lik’s guess was close. She initially thought they were kept for degradation, but now in seemed they were part of some illicit business. 

“Tin’t this one a bit too ugly?” the woman said and sneered at Grace. 

Crate, humiliated and angry, didn’t dare to lose her temper. She never imagined she’d fall so low, outshone by Ella, 

The robbers also glanced at Grace and said, “Make e do. Things are tight right now? 

Then, they left. Soon, the three women were being dressed up. Ella’s face, flawless to begin with, became stunning with careful grooming. The pale–skinned woman stared at Ella for a few seconds and said. “How can some

Then the added, “This is going to be a

Ella was speechless. 

Then the woman said, “As for you….”“” 

She looked at Grace and shook her head, even with makeup, Grace still looked ordinary O 

Grace was nearly livid

They were now dressed in extremely seductive attire. Crace was taken away first, each room had a screen. outside. Ella sow Grace being taken by a man, 

Ella was further down the list, but Jenny was closer. As Jenny’s turn approached. Ella’s mind raced faster than ever. 

“It’s fine.” Jenny said, tears welling up as she bat her lip, choking back abs. “We need to survive first. As long as we live, there’s hope 

Ella gritted her teeth, suddenly thinking of an idea. She grabbed the eyebrow knife from the dressing table and held in to her face.
