Chapter 912
Once Rebecca had the money, she'd immediately inform Sullivan that she had set the timer and planned to let
him live in fear for the next month. She was determined to make him experience what it was like to lose
everything-and his freedom. Meanwhile, Sullivan grew increasingly anxious as Rebecca continued to ignore him.
Though concerned, he wasn't yet ready to hand over the money.
He remained wary of her, unconvinced that paying her would guarantee she'd leave him alone. Reluctantly, he
gathered the money and called her directly.
The call connected after just two rings.
Rebecca's voice was cold. "Is the money ready?"
"It's ready, but | don't trust you," Sullivan replied.
At this point, both of them had discarded any pretense of politeness. There was no more pretending.
Rebecca sneered. "You don't have much of a choice, do you?"
Sullivan snickered. "I know you've run from Saintornia. You must be desperate for money. No money means
you're stuck. If I'm right, you want to escape the country, don't you?"
There was a brief silence on the other end of the line before Rebecca's voice grew more frantic. "So what if you
know? If you don't givethe money, I'll find a way to make a living, but you'll be the one heading to prison."
"I'll give you the money," Sullivan said. "However, | need to see the original evidence first. And I'll only give you
75,000 dollars now. A year from now, I'll send you another 75,000 dollars."

Rebecca's face darkened, and she gritted her teeth. "No. | want 300,000 dollars, in one payment."
"Don't be hasty. If | give you all 300,000 dollars now, you'll just spend it quickly. But as long as you hold on to the
evidence, I'll give you 75,000 dollars each year. That way, neither of us has to worry about the other double-
crossing. What do you think?" Sullivan proposed. After a moment of thought, Rebecca found Sullivan's offer
somewhat reasonable. If he sent her 75,000 dollars every year, her life would certainly be more comfortable.
300,000 dollars sounded like a lot, but it wouldn't last long.
"Fine. | agree. Now, transfer the money," Rebecca said, abruptly ending the call.
Sullivan kept his word and transferred 75,000 dollars immediately.
Rebecca received the money and was about to cancel the scheduled email When she heard a knock at the
done jumped in shock, almost
dropping her phone.
The knocking continued, and she froze, unsure who it was.
After a moment, a male voice called from outside, "No one home? I'm leaving the takeout at your door."
Then, the sound stopped.
Rebecca had indeed ordered
takeout. She checked the app,

Relieved, she still didn't dare open the door right away.

As expected, the takeout was sitting there.
Just as she bent down to pick it up,
the door next to hers suddenly
opened. Before she could react, someone grabbed her and yanked her into the neighboring apartment.
Her phone fell to the g
