  The madman’s eyes turned red as he said. “I know him. He’s very rich.”


  “Indeed, he is.” Samantha took a step forward. “I’m Timothy’s wife. I’m the wife of the Barker Group’s CEO. His money is my money, which means I’m just as rich too.”


  “You?” The madman could not help but look at her from head to toe.

  He rarely paid attention to the entertainment news and did not surf the internet very often, so he could not be sure whether she was telling the truth.

  Samantha looked at his expression and could already guess what he was thinking. She took out her cell phone from her pocket and quickly found the news about Timothy publicly disclosing their marriage. She showed him her screen and said, “So you see, I really am Timothy’s wife.”


  The madman looked at the news and could confirm that the woman standing next to Timothy in the photo was the same woman in front of him.

  He did not expect that a small-time anchor in Lychee TV would actually be the wife of the Barker Group’s CEO.

  “All you need is money, don’t you? I have a lot of money. Just tell me your bank account number and I’ll transfer it to you right now. Just don’t hurt the child, okay?”


  The madman still had his guard up and kept his hand around the child’s neck. He asked in a hoarse voice, “Are you willing to give me the money?”


  Samantha smiled. “My husband is very rich and there’s no way he can spend all that money. Helping you through your current difficulties can be considered an act of kindness.”


  The madman frowned and said nothing, as if he was contemplating the authenticity of her words.

  Seeing his hesitation, Samantha persisted with her efforts and took out her purse. She pulled out a card from within and held it in front of the madman.

  “Look. This black card is the highest there is for a bank’s VIP customers. A phone call is all I need to get you any amount of money you want.”


  The madman might not be sure about everything else, but he knew about the black card after his frequent dealings with stock markets and banks.

  Transactions from customers of that level could be approved with just a phone call.

  The madman’s eyes suddenly brightened and his expression had a look of greed.

  Samantha continued to speak calmly. “You’re only in your forties and you’ve only lived half your life. You still have many days ahead of you. The money can help you pay off your debts, and your wife and children might even come back to you too. You have a chance at starting a new life. Are you willing to just die like that?”


  Money could bring back everything he lost and those who looked down on him before would not dare to do so anymore. The man no longer wanted to throw his life away!

  However, nothing was certain until the money arrived.

  The madman stared at Samantha solemnly and demanded, “Then make the call right now and transfer the money to my account. I want… I want ten million!”


  Samantha answered without thinking. “Okay. Ten million. I’ll make the call now.”


  She took her cell phone and dialed the exclusive number provided on the black card. The other side answered within seconds and the sweet voice of a customer service representative was heard. “Mr. Barker, how can I help you?”


  Samantha frowned, as if she could not hear the person clearly. “Hello? What was that? Hello?”


  The other side continued to greet her.

  Samantha tapped the phone twice and said, “Hello? Can you hear me? I can’t hear you clearly…”


  The madman immediately became anxious when he heard that and stared closely at Samantha. “What’s the matter?”


  “Must be the bad reception,” Samantha replied embarrassedly and bit her lower lip slightly. She then said, “Sir, can I walk to the window? The reception is probably better over there.”


  “Fine.?Go!” the madman responded, but his expression was still very gloomy. “No tricks. Or I’ll kill you and the child!”


  “No tricks, of course.”


  Samantha walked slowly to the window and turned her back to it before continuing to speak, “I can hear you clearly now. I’d like to transfer ten million to an account. Yes, right now.”


  She then said to the madman, “Sir, what’s your account number?”


  The madman recalled his account number and said it out loud.

  Samantha used her free hand to reach behind her back and push the window open when the madman’s attention was elsewhere.

  After the madman said the account number, Samantha immediately repeated it to the bank’s customer service representative. After receiving a confirmation, the customer service representative said, “Alright. I’m arranging the transfer now. Please wait a moment.”


  After about three minutes, the customer service representative spoke again, “Hello again, I’ve already transferred ten million to that account, but there may be a slight delay. Is there anything else I can do for you?”


  “That’s all, thanks.”


  After Samantha hung up, her dark pupils looked at the madman as she said, “The ten million has been transferred. You might receive a notification soon.”


  As soon as she said that, she heard a sound from the madman’s cell phone.

  Samantha smiled and said, “That’s probably the message, Sir. Do you want to confirm it?”


  ‘Did I get ten million just like that…’


  The madman was a little excited and could not control himself. He freed up a hand, touched his trouser pocket, and took out his cell phone.

  Sure enough, it was a message from the bank.

  He clicked on the unread message and looked at the bank balance being displayed on his phone screen.

  Two words suddenly appeared in Samantha’s earpiece. “Get down!”


  She held her head and squatted down immediately.

  A bullet shot in through the open window with a bang, striking the madman’s arm and drawing a violent scream from him.

  The phone in his hand fell to the ground, and the pain was so great that he lost his strength and could not hold the child firmly any more.

  Samantha had been closely watching the madman’s every move. When she saw the situation, she rushed up quickly, carried the child, and ran out before the madman could react.

  To her surprise, the madman stood up strenuously as he chased after her. After taking a few steps forward, he grabbed with his uninjured hand and firmly pulled on the child’s hair.

  The child cried in pain and struggled uncontrollably before falling to the ground. Samantha was unable to hold him firmly.

  Samantha wanted to pick the boy up again, but the madman kicked her viciously on her waist. She failed to notice a kick coming at her and flew a few steps away.

  The madman was in a deranged state at that time and exerted a tremendous amount of strength. Samantha’s vision had turned black, and once she regained her senses after a few seconds, she finally saw the child being hugged in front of the man.

  With the child in one hand and a knife in the other, he hacked right at the child’s neck without any further consideration.

  “NO!”


  Samantha’s strength appeared out of nowhere and she rushed straight up to hug the child and protect her in his arms.

  The knife was coming at her.

  However, a bang was heard and the madman’s body fell to the ground with a thud.
