Grace was already certain that it was Lydia on the other end.

She knew her friend well. In such circumstances, Lydia would absolutely refuse to bring her any trouble. Hence, she hadn't said a word.

"If you want money, | can give you any amount you want, so long as you don't hurt her. But if anything happens to her, don't even think about getting a single penny." This seemed to persuade the man. He put his hand down and stood up to look down at Lydia.

He snorted coldly. "Alright, then deliver the money to the tand place we previously agreed on. If you're late, | won't spare her." "Okay." Grace met Xander's eyes. The latter gave her the thumbs-up sign, and Grace nodded in return. She continued, "Lydia, | know you're there. Don't be afraid. We'll rescue you very soon. Trust me!" When Lydia heard this, she couldn't hold back her emotions anymore. Tears poured down her face. "Gracie, I-I'm so sorry for dragging you into this." "Don't be silly. What's there to be sorry for? | just want you to be safe and sound. Wait for me." Then, she said to the kidnapper, "We'll send the money in a while, but we will exchange the cash for the hostage." "Heh, you still want to negotiate? No way! Once we get the money, we'll naturally release the hostage. But ... if you get any bright ideas or choose to call the police, I'll send her to hell myself.

"We live life on the edge. Us hardened men aren't afraid of you rich people. You'd better not get up to any funny business." With that, he hung up the phone.

Grace asked anxiously, "Xander, how did it go?" "I've locked in on his location. He's about 500 yards away from the drop-off point." "Can you find out who he is?" Xander passed his phone to her. There was an unfamiliar man's face on the screen. "I tracked down his location and found his identity. Have you seen this person before?" Grace shook her head. "I don't know him." "Hmm, he seems to be well-known around these parts. He's not going to be simple to deal with." "How did Lydia cross them?" "lI don't know yet. Nonetheless, these people are capable of anything. We have to rush over now. The earlier we get there, the sooner we guarantee Lydia's safety." "Alright. I'll go with you," Grace insisted. "Unless | see Lydia standing in front of me, | can't feel at ease." Xander couldn't convince her otherwise, so he agreed. "No matter what, you have to stay by my side. You can't let yourself get in harm's way." Grace nodded. "I know, Xander." "Good. Let's go." Meanwhile, after the kidnapper ended the call, eight muscular men locked Lydia in a small hut.

One of the lackeys gave the leader, Troy Barker, a cigarette. "Troy, will they really give us the money?" Troy snorted coldly. He said in a confident tone, "Don't worry! For Amirate Corporation, 50 million dollars is simply small change.

The Lewis family can cough it up." "But ... this woman doesn't have much relation to the Lewis family. Why would they be willing to pay up for her?" "Heh, this woman has a strong relationship with the heiress of the Lewis family.

"If it hadn't been for this woman, why would the Lewis family's heiress have done that to my niece? She made my niece go from being a huge celebrity to a receptionist!"
