Chapter 217: Chapter 0217: Seeking a Glimr of Hope! Chapter 217: Chapter 0217: Seeking a Glimr of Hope! “I think you should really consider my proposal…”
“You’re smart, but unfortunately, we need to maintain our reputation.”
Mu Lan’s heart sank imdiately, it was over!
After a while, the car stopped at an abandoned factory on the outskirts of the city.
Mu Lan felt like cargo being lifted and then thrown to the ground.
She tried hard to see through the gaps in the sack, but it was futile, utterly useless.
The only thought in her mind was that she had to survive!
Suddenly, the sack was removed from her body, and Mu Lan’s heart sank deeper.
The fact that they weren’t afraid of her seeing their faces could only an one thing: they were determined not to let her live.
“Such a beautiful woman, it would be a sha to kill her right away, boss.”
“Yeah, I think before we kill her, we should have so fun…”
“Shut up!”
Mu Lan looked towards the man referred to as the boss, who was tall and burly, with a conspicuous scar on his face, looking sowhat fierce.
The man seed to sense her gaze and walked towards her step by step.
“What are you looking at?”
Mu Lan stared unblinkingly at him, trying to negotiate again.
“If you let go, I assure you I won’t pursue this matter, and I promise to double the ransom.”
The man chuckled.
“Now that you’ve seen our faces, do you think I’d believe what you’re saying?
Beautiful won really lack brains.”
Mu Lan ignored his sarcasm and tried to calm herself down, seeking a way to survive.
“Aren’t you face-blind to Asian faces? To be honest, I was even thinking you might have captured the wrong person.
I can’t really distinguish the faces of you guys either, so you really don’t have to worry about rembering anything.”
As she spoke, the n around her were briefly stunned, then pulled out their phones, comparing the photos.
“Boss, now that she ntions it, they do look a bit different…”
“Really, I think so too.”
The tall man with the scar could no longer tolerate his subordinates’ foolish chatter and annoyed, said:
“Are you pigs? She’s tricked you into believing her words just like that?”
Mu Lan watched their internal strife, when suddenly the tall, scarred man’s phone rang.
“It’s , yes, the person is here. When will you bring the money? Okay, got it.”
After hanging up the phone, the man with the scar looked at Mu Lan, unable to suppress his curiosity.
“Aren’t you scared?”
Mu Lan struggled to stay rational and calm.
“Being afraid won’t make you release , and being afraid is aningless.”
“This is the first ti I’ve captured soone so brave, and a woman at that, truly intriguing.”
Mu Lan didn’t take that as any complint.
She had no communication device at hand and did not know if Huo Tingxiao would be able to find her location quickly.
Now, the only thing she could do was to buy as much ti as possible to let Huo Tingxiao find her.
Katrina soon appeared at the abandoned factory, followed by bodyguards, looking every bit the heiress.
Seeing Mu Lan’s disheveled appearance, her smile deepened.
“Bitch, you’ve finally fallen into my hands. You dare to oppose . I’ve told you before, in Paris, nobody dares oppose . Crushing you is like crushing an ant.”
Mu Lan looked at Katrina’s sowhat frenzied deanor and didn’t dare say anything more provocative. Instead, she tried to appease:
“Katrina, you and I have no deep-seated hatred. I’m returning to my country tomorrow. Why go to such lengths?
You’re the heiress of the Lawrence family, and besides, my husband is a business partner of your family. Doing this, isn’t it a disgrace to your family?”
“Now everything is still salvageable, I know it’s all just a misunderstanding.”
Katrina looked at Mu Lan and sneered coldly.
“Misunderstanding? Do you think I’m a fool? The one who humiliated at the party yesterday was you!
You made suffer such great humiliation, and you think you can pretend nothing happened?
How is that possible? For the sha you gave , I will have you pay with your life, you bitch!
No one has ever dared to oppose like this, what kind of partner do you think you are, you yellow-skinned monkey?
It’s our family’s pity that allows us to do business with you, you’re not even worthy to bargain with .”
Mu Lan hadn’t expected Katrina to be so cruel. Since kindness didn’t work, she could only take a gamble; it was a matter of life and death, she couldn’t give up the last glimr of hope.
“So what do you plan to do? Kill directly?”
Katrina laughed wildly.
“Hahaha… kill you directly, do you think I would let you off that easily?
Do you see these n here? You like to ddle, don’t you? Then I’ll oblige you; we’ll make a nice video with you and these strong n.”
A skinny man who had long lusted after Mu Lan lit up at the sound of this.
“Really?”
The man with the scar didn’t speak, his gaze fixed on Mu Lan.
Katrina, seeking more thrill, continued:
“Oh, right, we could also upload these videos online. What do you think of that proposal?”
Mu Lan felt a chill down her spine; she knew Katrina was capable of doing what she said.
“Katrina, if you touch now, it won’t benefit you at all. If a actual murder happened, do you think you could escape legal punishnt?
You are still too naive. While things haven’t gotten worse, you still have a choice.
A fit of rage won’t allow to debut in the fashion circles of Paris; there’s no need for you to go this far.”
Katrina snorted coldly, clearly not buying any of Mu Lan’s words.
“You think I’m a fool to believe your nonsense? I’m telling you, don’t dream about leaving here unscathed today.
You think this is your country, where you can be safe? You’re too naive.
You guys better perform well, okay?”
———-
Huo Tingxiao had already lost his composure, and Long Xiao was equally startled, never imagining that soone would dare to make a move here in Paris.
“Damn, these two useless fools couldn’t even protect a person.
Don’t worry for now, I am having soone look into it; they rember the other party’s car model, the nearby surveillance should be able to find it.”
But pulling up the surveillance took too long.
After the two injured bodyguards reported the situation, Huo Tingxiao could almost imdiately confirm the perpetrator.
“Go to Louie’s estate.”
“I will go with you.”
Huo Tingxiao didn’t respond, which ant he accepted Long Xiao’s suggestion.
Long Xiao took quite a number of people to Louie’s estate, surprising everyone with the size of their group.
“Where is Gaston?”
“What?”
“I asked you where Gaston is?”
Unaware of what had happened, Gaston had just co out of the restroom and, seeing the furious Huo Tingxiao and the many people Long Xiao had brought, he couldn’t help but frown.
“Mr. Huo, what do you an by this?”
“Where is Katrina?”
“Katrina?”
“I’m asking you where Katrina is?!”
