Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1811

She might not be the brightest human out there, but Joan was smart enough to know what the man meant. Someone had paid him one million to kidnap her.

She did not have the luxury of time to think about who the mastermind behind this was. Time was of the essence. She needed to get out.

Gabriella had only promised to pay the man after he completed the job, but Joan seemed to be able to give him cash immediately. The latter’s deal was surely more tempting.
