When I Was A Wallflower

Chapter 379 Danger

Amelie's hands clenched around the seat cushion.

"What do you want?" The man sitting across from her pulled out a cigarette and placed it in his mouth.

"I thought you wanted to discuss business? Since you're here, let's negotiate before you go back" That rendered Amelie speechless.

"I am the host here. I can't just let you leave empty-handed. We'll sign the contract, have a great meal, then give you a few local specialties to bring home as souvenirs."

"Perfect!" The man held his hands out in an arrogant manner before cackling with the driver in front.

Their cackling made her go numb.

These men naturally were not good men.

The business they were talking about was definitely the deeds the detective no.vel.e.book agency told her about.

Acting terrified, Amelie silently bit her lips while linking her fingers on top of her knees.

At that moment, her entire body was trembling.

"You're not going to do anything illegal, are you?" she asked.

He guffawed.

When he saw how hard her shoulder was shaking, he nodded in satisfaction He had been worried he had selected a tough target.

Who knew she would be so easy? Today's gig would be an easy job. He exchanged an ecstatic look with the driver.

They were not as wary now.

Thereafter, the driver rolled down the window. If it were a man, they would be worried it might be a trap.

However, this was just some demure woman whose legs were not as thick as their arm. She was definitely no match for them. The driver's eyes menacingly scanned her curvy and slim body up and down before letting out a lustful whistle. He jutted his chin out at his partner in an obvious signal of intention.

The man sitting in the back also noticed her beauty. He was so overwhelmed by lust that he had to gulp. His coarse throat rolled up and down nonstop. He was rubbing his hands together from where they lay between his knees. He did not even bother to hide his leer as he said, "Don't worry. We're all law-abiding young men."

Then, he cackled once more.

"T-That's good."

Amelie did her best to act weak, lowering her head and shrinking back. Her eyes kept examining her surroundings though, trying to find a way out.

While the windows had been rolled down, it was only a tiny bit. Hence, she could not escape from it.

The car was in the middle of a highway.
