Listening to Brodie’s words, Serina felt desperate in her heart.
Was she going to become a fool in this life?
What about the twins? What about Derek? Was she going to let them face a fool?
However, she still ate the food. Now was not the time to be pessimistic and desperate. There might be a turning point in the future.
This day was extremely painful for Serina. Brodie might pity her because she was about to become a fool. He deliberately untied her.
Serina, who jumped down from the factory window, had an injury to her feet. Because she was not treated in time, her feet were swollen and she could not go far even if she wanted to.
In addition to the injuries on the other parts of her body, Serina could not escape at all.
She limped around in the room and Brodie turned on the TV.
Serina stood in front of the window and looked outside. She couldn’t see where this place was. She only knew that this was an old house. The furnishings in the room were like things from the last century.
Brodie glanced at her, “Don’t worry. Even if you stand in front of the window and shout for help, no one will hear.”
Serina looked outside carefully. There was no one on the street. How could it be?
Even if it was a remote neighborhood, how could there be no one?
“The community here is about to be demolished. There are still a few people who have not left. The rest have moved away.”
Serina could not help but admire Brodie. Brodie was so clever that he found such a place.
She stood in front of the window for a long time and did not see a single person. She had to return to the room in disappointment and sit on the bed.
“Brodie, do you really think you can escape?”
“Why can’t I escape?” Brodie had a proud smile on his face.
“What if Derek doesn’t arrange what you want but wants to find you?”
“Your man cares so much about you. He will make some preparations. When he is not sure if he can find me, he will prepare what I want first.”
Serina’s heart slowly sank, and everything was under his control.
That night, Serina was still tied up by Brodie. She lay on the bed and he was snoring on the sofa outside.
Everything could be settled tomorrow, so he slept so soundly.
Fortunately, he did not touch her. Otherwise, she did not know how to live.
Serina couldn’t fall asleep at first. She missed Derek and the twins.
However, after a long time, she couldn’t hold on anymore. She still needed to sleep. After all, she still didn’t know what she was going to face tomorrow. She needed to have the energy to face it.
The next day arrived.
Serina was suddenly awakened by the pain in her arm. She opened her eyes and found that Brodie was injecting medicine on her arm.
She was just about to move when she found that she was tightly tied and could not move at all.
Brodie glanced at her and pulled out the needle.
“Don’t waste your energy. It is over. Serina, you still have forty-eight hours. Treasure it.” Brodie threw the needle aside.
Serina bit her lips tightly, “Brodie, you better pray for yourself. Otherwise, I will not let you have a good life!”
“OK, we will see!” Brodie smiled at Serina and untied half of the ropes for her. “I have already made an appointment with Derek. At nine o’clock, we will go to the western suburbs to trade.”
“Why so far away?”
“Because the plane over there is easy to take off. There is no cover. I can tell at a glance what Derek wants to do.”
“It will take about an hour and a half to get there from here. We have to hurry up and set off,” Brodie said as he stood up.
Just as he finished speaking, he heard a voice coming from outside.
“The people inside, listen up. You have been surrounded. Hurry up and surrender!”
Brodie was shocked and immediately looked at the window. Many police cars surrounded them.
“Damn it!” Brodie cursed and immediately closed the curtains.
He was worried that he would be discovered, so he closed the windows before.
“Surrender! You won’t be able to escape.” Serina suddenly saw a glimmer of hope.
“I will not surrender. I still have to save Mar!” Brodie loaded his pistols, grabbed one in his hand, and put one on his waist.
He was infatuated with Marco. He kept muttering about Marco as if Marco was everything to him.
Brodie’s phone rang. It was Derek.
“Derek, you bastard! How dare you call the police!”
“You are the stupid one. You have exposed your whereabouts. Surrender quickly. Maybe you can get a better deal.” Derek’s voice was extremely cold.
“I won’t surrender! Derek, let me put it this way. At worst, we’ll have to fight to the death. Don’t forget that your woman is still in my hands!”
“You won’t be able to escape!”
“I have your woman in my hands. I’m not afraid that I won’t be able to escape. Derek, if you want your woman to be alive, prepare the things I want. I’ll give you ten minutes.”
“Stop your pointless struggle. It’s useless.”
“Is that so? If you don’t do as I say, I will shoot your woman’s foot, then her leg, and then her stomach. I will not let her die so quickly. I will slowly torture her. If you don’t want her anymore, you can break in.”
“You…”
“Hurry up and do as I say! Thirty million and a helicopter! And Mar!”
“OK, give me some time. I will arrange it immediately.”
“Derek! Don’t listen to him! He has injected me with the drug!” Serina shouted in the direction of the mobile phone.
“Ten minutes!”
Brodie immediately hung up.
Serina glared at Brodie fiercely. “Anyway, I will become a fool. It is not different from death! You won’t succeed!”
“That depends on how much your man loves you!” Brodie sneered.
He raised his hand to look at the time, “Ten minutes, or else I’ll be sorry for you!”
Time ticked by.
In just eight minutes, Brodie heard the noise outside. The helicopter had arrived.
The phone rang again.
“Brodie, the helicopter is ready. Marco is in my hands. The thirty million you want are ready. Release Serina now!”
“Put thirty million in the helicopter, and then let Mar go into the helicopter. Hurry up!”
