Let Me Stay The Night

Chapter 172 You Are Safe Now

Since those thugs were greedy for money, Christina decided to use it to her advantage. “If you guys tell me who sent you, I’ll have my husband add ten million to the ransom.”

What? We can get ten million simply by answering such a simple question?

One of the thugs asked excitedly. “Really?”

“Of course! My husband is filthy rich so paying an additional ten million is nothing to him!” Christina replied confidently,

The thug’s eyes lit up with glee when he heard that. He was about to say something when the phone started ringing again.

As Xander was the man leading the group, he answered the phone, “How are things?” asked the person who hired them.

The rest of the thugs simply glanced at Christina, who was completely unharmed. None of them dared say anything.

“We’ve done what you told us to do,” Xander replied with a snort.

“Good! Send me some pictures of her! I want to see that b*tch suffer! I’ll pay you guys another fifty thousand once this is over.”

Fifty thousand? What a cheapskate!

Even so, Xander didn’t say no to her. “No problem.”

The other thugs waited until he hung up the phone before gathering around. “Are you sure it’s a good idea to lie to that person like that?”

That woman sounded incredibly arrogant and claimed to have someone powerful backing her up. On top of that, she told them to go after Christina without worrying about the repercussions.

That led them to assume she was not someone to be trifled with.

Xander narrowed his eyes and said coldly, “This woman nearly got us all killed!”

Had they abused Christina like they were instructed to, Nathaniel would probably have them all chopped into pieces.

The mere thought of that potential outcome sent shivers down their spines.
