Billionaires with Benefits

85 85. Kidnapping the Wrong Girl

Lea was surprised at the moment she checked the amount of her bank account’s balance. She had 500,000 dollars. It must be from William since he was the only one she told about the problem.

Sarah looked at her elder sister in amazement. She did not expect that William, who was said to be bankrupt, was still kind enough to give the rest of the money he had to them.

“At least, he had common sense,” Sarah said in awe. Given that, they still have 1.5 million to cover. Her little brain started to think about the other way to get the money.

“How about we borrow the money from a loan shark?” Sarah suggested again. She felt they had no other choice. A loan shark was the only option.

“How can we pay the unreasonable interest?” Lea snapped, quickly rejecting the idea. She was indeed a coward, but not so stupid as to give up her life in the hands of a loan shark.

“Then what can we do, Lea? Do you have another idea?” Sarah was desperate. She couldn’t contain her anger. Everything she said was always stupid for Lea.

However, she was not in the mood for arguments. It was better to stay away from her sister. “I’ll get some fresh air outside.”

The girl walked out of the house. She wore winter clothes that were thick enough to protect her body from the cold weather. In such a state, no one would be able to tell Sarah from Lea. They looked similar to each other.

At this time, there were two men dressed all in black watching Sarah’s movements. The two of them exchanged glances, then compared the girl to the photo in their hands.

.....

“Are you sure that girl is the one?” asked the dark-skinned man.

“Yeah. She looks a lot like the girl in this photo, doesn’t she? Her jet-black hair is beautiful, smooth, and shiny like a model for a shampoo commercial. Who else but her?” said the man with curly hair.

They then observed the girl one more time to confirm their sight. After being convinced, the two of them decided to approach Sarah.

Not long after, the two big men stood in front of Sarah, making the girl confused. She recalled that she had never borrowed money from a loan shark ... not yet. She just planned to do that. Why were there two people like debt collectors standing in front of her? Staring at her with their predatory looks.

Their faces were truly frightening and terrible. Sarah felt like they were dementors because suddenly the air around her grew colder and colder.

“You-who are you?” Sarah asked haltingly. She had just had a little fight with her elder sister. Why did God punish her directly only because of that?

“Come with us, Miss!” said the bronze-skinned man with no smile on his face.

“Our boss wants to meet you. We won’t be rude to you if you obediently follow our orders,” the white man with curly hair said flatly.

“I ... I don’t owe anyone! I’m innocent,” Sarah said in a panic. “You have no right to take me anywhere without my consent!” Sarah yelled at them out of fear. She was afraid of the mafia-looking man in front of her. How about if they wanted to sell her to a mafia boss? How about if they wanted to sell her as a prostitute? How about if they’re going to kill her to get her organs and sell them on the black market?

Her thoughts were so dark. She was out of control. She tried to run from them and screamed, asking for help.

“Help me! Help!” Sarah yelled to anyone. But there was no one around to help her. The men didn’t want any more difficulties in doing their tasks. That’s why they chose to catch her and sedate Sarah so she could be taken away in an unconscious state. Simple.

After making Sarah faint, the men then carried Sarah’s body into their white van. Their job was done well. Sarah would soon meet their boss and they would soon be rewarded with a lot of money.

***

Sarah woke up dizzy. She tried to remember what happened to her just now. Two criminals confronted her. They were after her! She must have been drugged and brought here by force.

After Sarah’s eyes could see clearly, her eyes roamed the surroundings again, realizing that she was currently in a luxurious hotel room. Quickly, she immediately checked her clothes for fear that she would be abused in an unconscious state. However, it looked like she was overthinking things. Her clothes were still intact. Even her coat was not removed from her body. The boots on her feet were still attached perfectly.

Sarah gulped. Her hands weren’t even tied up. There was food that had been prepared for her on the small table beside her. The food was very decent. Delicious-looking chocolate cookies and a can of soda that looked like it just came out of the chiller. In addition, there was a bowl of mouth-watering fresh fruit.

The delicious smell of chocolate, brown sugar, and butter indicated that the cookies had just freshly come out of the oven. Was it true that she was kidnapped for evil reasons? It didn’t seem like that to her.

Sarah’s stomach growled. She desperately wanted to nibble on a cookie to appease her hungry tummy. However, a bad thought flashed again, making her hand refrain from taking a single cookie.

“Do not touch it! This could be poisoned food!” Sarah said, calming down. She was afraid that she would die after taking a bite of those delicious-smelling cookies.

“Just eat! It’s completely safe.” Suddenly, a voice startled Sarah. As it turned out, she was not alone in that lavish room.

She turned her attention to the one speaking and found a woman about the same age as her mother sitting on the couch in the hotel room. A beautiful woman, wearing a fancy-looking gray formal dress. Her ash-brown hair was neatly pulled back, adding a plus to her graceful figure.

The elegant woman’s dark eyes looked at Sarah tenderly. She’s not a dangerous person. However, Sarah somehow felt a flicker of hatred on the woman’s face. Was it just her thought?

The woman then stood up and walked casually toward Sarah while holding a folder that seemed to contain an important document. What’s in it? Sarah was still confused as to why she could be in this kind of situation.

“I’m Linda, Clara’s mom,” said the woman, introducing herself to Sarah.

Of course, Sarah was even more confused. The Clara she knew was an old janitor lady on her campus. Why did Clara’s mother look much younger than her?

“Sorry, because we have to meet in such unpleasant circumstances. However, I don’t have much time. I can’t let my daughter suffer continuously because of an unpleasant condition for her,” Linda continued with an incomprehensible face. “I don’t think you have much time either, do you? Your mother needs a large sum of money for her heart transplant.”

Sarah could only stare at Linda, her mouth gaping. “H-how did you know? I didn’t even tell my whole family.”

Linda smiled gently. “Your mother is being treated at our family’s hospital. Of course, it’s very easy for us to find out about something like this.”

Sarah was surprised. Why did the hospital owner arrest her? Was it because they knew she couldn’t pay for her mother’s surgery?

“We ... we’re working on it! Don’t cancel our mother’s treatment. I beg you!” Sarah said pitifully.

However, Sarah’s response drew laughter from Linda. “I invited you here precisely because I wanted to help you. I’m willing to pay for all of your mother’s hospital fees.”

Sarah’s eyes narrowed. Her mouth could only gape even wider. Her heart skipped beating for a moment. She then pinched her hands several times. She also slapped her cheek several times.

“Are you serious? You’re not kidding, yes?” Sarah asked, so moved she almost cried. “Is this a dream?”

Linda looked at the girl in front of her with a flat gaze. It didn’t appear at all that she was the seductress who snatched Dave from her daughter.

“I’m serious. I’m even willing to give a bonus by covering all the education costs for your siblings,” answered Linda with a meaningful smile.

Sarah was even more astonished. Why did God suddenly send an angel to her family? What did they do? As she recalled, Lea even made the mistake of messing up people’s relationships and getting pregnant by her ex-boss. Was there something respectful behind her sister’s doing?

“I don’t know what made you do so good to my family. But, to be honest, I’m very grateful,” Sarah answered with gratitude. Her hands were shaking with joy.

“But of course there are conditions,” said Linda again, before she ended the discussion.

“Sure, ma’am,” Sarah said without thinking. “I will do as you want.”

Linda smiled happily, looking at Sarah with satisfaction. “Good. I just want you to hand over your baby to Clara.”
