Chapter 2246: Negotiation

“Don’t you dare touch my daughter!” Ella roared as she drew out the butterfly knife from her belt and pointed it at Daniel.

“Calm down! Calm down! I’m just joking. Now that I’m done talking, it’s time for me to leave. Remember to fulfill your promise. I want your answer by tomorrow morning.” After saying that, Daniel left the island while humming a song.

Ella sat motionlessly at the table. She did not move even when Paul returned from fishing.

Paul carried a big box of fish into the house and said happily, “My dear, I’m back! I made a lot of money today! These are the leftover fishes, let’s keep them for ourselves!”

“Where’s our kid? Did you see our kid today?” Ella asked suddenly.

“She’s in school. It’s Thursday today and she will only come home tomorrow night.” Paul looked at Ella suspiciously for a long time. He put down what he was holding and sat opposite her before asking, “Why… why is there something wrong with you? What happened?”

Ella handed the document bag to Paul and said, “Alan’s son came by earlier. He wants us to kidnap Fang Chen.”

Paul did not open the document bag. He knew very well what kind of person Fang Chen was. Asking them to kidnap Fang Chen was no different from asking them to commit suicide.

“Let’s leave immediately with our kid. We’ve already saved up enough money over the years,” Paul said.

“Daniel has eyes on our kid. There’s no way back for us. Moreover, it was indeed Alan who saved us back then. It’s… time for us to repay his kindness,” Ella said sadly.

Paul and Ella did not say anything else. They had been living an incognito life for so many years and were no longer the same people they were back then. Ever since they had a child, they only wanted to live the rest of their lives in peace and for their child to grow up happily.

Such a simple wish had now become a luxury.

Early the next morning, the couple went to the basement of their small house to take out all the weapons they could use. They decided to leave the kid at school for the time being. They… had to put an end to this issue.

Daniel had already expected the couple to agree to his request and there was a car waiting to bring them to Alan’s house. Alan was already waiting for them at home.

“Long time no see, my old friends,” Alan said with a smile as he sat on the sofa.

Paul stood in front of Ella and looked at Alan coldly as he said, “Time is precious. Let’s not beat around the bush. After this mission is over, give us a million dollars and let us go free.”

“A million! You’re really asking for too much!” Daniel said in shock.

Paul could not be bothered with Daniel at all. He stared straight at Alan and said, “I believe a million dollars is nothing compared to this prey of yours, Fang Chen.”

Alan nodded in satisfaction. It was as expected of the “secret weapon” that he had hidden for so many years. Even if they did not give all of Fang Chen’s information to Paul, he already knew what Alan wanted from Fang Chen.

“I will also arrange new identities for your family of three and send you to another country. I promise that you will live comfortably for the rest of your lives,” Alan said.

“Alright, I’ll bring him to you after three days,” Paul said and left with Ella.

Daniel pointed at the door and said unhappily, “Dad! Look at how arrogant they are! We’re the masters! They’re our slaves!”

“Shut up! Have you forgotten what I taught you in the past! How did you become like this! If you want the family to continue to do well, you can’t just rely on suppression tactics and use your authority to bully others. In our line of work, we must have friends!” Alan said earnestly.

“Those friends of yours don’t listen to you at all! It’s a waste of time and effort to befriend them!” Daniel muttered softly.

Alan sighed helplessly. There was nothing he could do to change Daniel’s mindset. This was all because he had spoiled Daniel since the boy was young and allowed him to do whatever he wanted. Daniel was only interested in power and desires.

It only took Paul and Ella one day to confirm Xia Zhe’s whereabouts and they decided to take action that night. The four bodyguards in Xia Zhe’s villa were no match for them at all.

Time passed bit by bit. Late at night, Paul came close to the villa quietly. He took out his grappling hook, swung it twice and threw it towards the roof of the villa. Then, the two of them quickly climbed up the roof.

At this moment, Xia Zhe had already noticed that there were people coming in from outside the house. The people who came this time were different from the people Daniel had sent previously. He knew very well that it would be a fierce battle tonight if he engaged them.

However, there was another way out. He could turn the battle into a negotiation.

Xia Zhe opened the window. He sat on a chair in the study and waited quietly for Paul and Ella to arrive.

“You know that we’re coming?” Paul said as he jumped into the room and dusted off his hands.
