Leia's voice caught the leader's attention once more.
He looked at Queenie and noticed the phone on the coffee table. The man walked over quickly, smashed the phone
on the ground, and stepped on it with his foot before he slapped Queenie. "B*tch, you want to call the police?"
"Ah!" Queenie did not expect that they would notice. She shouted from the shock.
Jack quickly got between the man and Queenie, so the slap landed on his head. The man snorted coldly and pushed
him away.
Jack fell to the ground in pain.
"Ah, dear! Dear, are you alright?" Queenie also fell to the ground in shock and wanted to climb over to check on
Jack, but she lost all strength.
Leia hid behind the sofa and smiled slightly when she saw how miserable the couple was. She looked toward Luca
but could not see how Luca was doing because she was squatting.
There were bursts of fighting. Although they were all men's voices, Leia believed that Luca could never beat 10
people on her own no matter how strong she was!
"Mind yourself!" The man's dagger pointed toward Queenie, then at Jack.
As soon as his words fell, Rain rushed in with a group of people.
The man realized that those who were assigned to protect Luca were there. He was sharp-witted and dragged
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtQueenie up from the ground. He put the dagger on her neck. "Stop where you are!"
Rain and the others eliminated the remaining men who surrounded Luca.
The crisis around Luca was resolved, and it was only then that she realized that Queenie was being held against her
will with a dagger on her neck.
She was apprehensive when she saw Queenie's pale face and Jack, who was lying on the ground. His condition was
unknown.
The man pushed the knife closer to Queenie's neck.
An indentation appeared on Queenie's neck.
Luca took a deep breath. She was worried that this situation would affect the couple's blood pressure, so she
dropped the rod. Her hands were trembling slightly. "We can discuss it. Let them go..."
The man glanced at the bunch who rushed in and beat his people up so badly that they were all lying on the
ground.
'This is the only way to get Luca now.'
The man looked at Queenie, then at Luca. Luca's panicked look made it seem as though she was the couple's
biological daughter.
'It's funny. The actual daughter hired us to deal with her parents, but a person who's not blood-related to them is
the one who's so nervous about them.'
The man opened his mouth and said, "Our boss wants you. If you want to save them, you can come and replace
them."
"Okay." Luca agreed without a second thought.
"No, Ms. Craw, you can't make yourself hostage!" Rain immediately took Luca's hand and shook her head.
If the knife were on Luca's neck, none of them would have a satisfactory explanation for Luke.
Luca pulled out her hand and said, "I'll be your hostage."
"Ms. Craw!" Rain could only watch her as Luca walked over. She wanted to stop her but could not.
Luca was Queenie's biological daughter, and Rain knew that she would not let anything happen to Queenie.
"Remember to call the ambulance later." Luca looked at Leia from the corners of her eyes and noticed that there
was a wry smile on the corner of her mouth.
She thought nobody noticed her reaction, but Luca did.
It was unlikely for her smile to appear in such a situation unless everything the gangster was doing now was as she
wished.
As such, Luca did not expect Leia to call Jack and Queenie an ambulance after she was kidnapped.
"Ms. Craw..." Rain could only helplessly watch her walk over.
The man moved quickly and pushed Queenie away.
"Mmph..." Queenie groaned and fell to the ground.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmRain's subordinates immediately stepped forward to help her.
The dagger was quickly placed on Luca's neck. "Don't move. The dagger has no eyes."
Luca lowered her gaze calmly and looked at the sharpened dagger. She did not struggle but instead asked leisurely,
"Have you heard of this saying?"
"What saying?" The man was startled that Luca was acting so calm even when she was under his control.
It was as though she was trying to lure him into a trap.
"Justice has long arms," Luca said in a casual tone.
The man clenched the dagger in his hand and said, "You're going to die anyway. Is there a point in saying such a
thing?"
"Are you sure that the person who hired you to kidnap me wants me to die?" Luca raised her gaze, looked at Rain
calmly, and hinted at her with her eyes.
"Oh, that's not my business. My task is complete once I kidnap and deliver you." The man kicked another
subordinate who was on the ground not far from him and said, "What are you still doing lying on the ground? The
task is completed. Hurry up."
He believed that he could retreat safely with Luca's neck in his hand.
"You're still thinking about retreating? Have you heard another saying?" Luca asked.
The man was startled.
