Chapter 986

The man said with a smile, "Ms. Lane, I can’t say for sure if they'll make it out alive, but I canguarantee your survival. If you cooperate, you'll be able to leave this country once we get themoney."

"Do you think you'll get the money?"

I darted him a mocking stare. "If what you say is true, that all the gangs in South Peacerton aresearching for me. Do you think you'll still be alive to take the money if the gangs fight amongthemselves to get me?”

The man frowned, obviously thinking of this possibility as well.

After a long time, he said after thinking it over, "I'll consider sending you back, but not them."

"Why?" I raised my voice. "You just need to send us back and I'll give you however much moneyyou want."

The man sneered. "The women that Mr. Fredericks favors sure are rich. Even though Mr. Fredericksmay b e willing to spend money on you, he may not be willing to spend money on other girls.Besides, these girls are so ordinary-looking. Mr. Fredericks might not like them either."

His words had offended the other girls, and they all glared viciously at him.

Shannon, especially, was considered an exceptional beauty, so she was quite offended afterhearing what h e said. She snapped back, "Who are you calling ugly? Can you look at your stupidface first before you call others ugly? With that face of yours, even if you were t o go back to yourmother’s womb to have your features restructured, I figure it’ll take 20 months before you can barelylook like a human."

Her tongue was sharp, and most people could not win an argument against her.

The man was infuriated by her words and raised his hand to hit her, but the leader, who was sittingin the front passenger seat, turned his head back and said something to him.

The man put down his hand reluctantly and could only glare angrily at Shannon.

Seeing that, Shannon grew even more arrogant and said with a face full of ridicule, "Why must yougo to other people's countries to be their slave? Is the air quality here better?"

"You!" The man was exasperated.

He felt a strong urge to beat Shannon up right now, but he held back regardless.

Once he had cooled off, he looked at Shannon and said with a sneer, "I don't haggle with peoplewho are about to face their doom. Other than Ms. Lane, the rest of you will experience what itmeans to be in hell."

As soon as he said those words, all the girls, including Shannon, started panicking.

I patted Shannon's hand to comfort her and looked at the man, saying, "If you know Mr. Fredericks,then that means you know who the Fredericks are and that they have a buttload of money. If youtake us all back, I promise that you'll not only receive money from the Fredericks but you'll alsoreceive a substantial amount from the Grants, Schumans, and Louises of Whaldorf City. With themoney you’ll get, you won't have to live abroad under other people's thumb. You can lead a suaveand happy life in Whaldorf City.”

The man was stunned, then asked unsurely, "Are you saying that the Grants, Schumans, andLouises of Whaldorf City will give me money?"

I nodded. "If you don't believe me, then you can lend m e your phone. I'll give Theo Grant a call."

The man was in disbelief. "Who exactly are you? If you know these families, why would they sendyou abroad to be an escort, then?"

I was startled. "An escort?"

The man nodded. "You are to be sold to the rich or gangs. They’ll use you depending on what theyneed."

To put it bluntly, I would be made a slave.

Of the many days we were displaced, we had never gotten a clue why these guys were taking usabroad.

All of us gasped after learning about it, and at the same time, we were grateful that we had escapedin time. Though unfortunately, the situation now did not seem much better than being sold intoslavery.

Just when I was about to keep negotiating terms with the man, the car suddenly stopped.
