Chapter: 476
He believed Oscar lost all reason at the sight of a woman. Oscar was known to go to extremes for a woman's affection.
Oscar couldn't take his eyes off Norah, admiring her beauty and figure. He desired her deeply.
Why would Riss agree to her terms? If Riss hadn't agreed, Norah would be in his grasp, to do with as he pleased.
Norah's smile was polite yet distant, her demeanor clearly showing refusal.
“No, I'm very much in love with my boyfriend. Please don't bother with such pointless talk."
Sean, accompanied by a few others, arrived outside the room just in time to overhear Norah's heartfelt words.
He breathed a sigh of relief, his emotions stirring slightly.
Sasha knocked on the door and announced, "Sir, they are here."
The three men entered the room in succession, followed by the members of Breaker, who stood behind Riss and Oscar.
“Norah.” Spotting Norah safely seated, Sean hurried to her side, his expression filled with concern. “Are you hurt?"
While Sean was in the car, Norah's call to him had been hurried. She had ended the conversation abruptly after conveying her needs, leaving Sean concerned that she might have been hurt. It wasn't until he saw her with his own eyes that he felt completely relieved.
Norah grasped Sean's hand and smiled. "I'm fine."
“Where is the money?" Riss rose to his feet, his anger simmering beneath the surface. "Are you all playing games with me?"
The three men approached empty-handed, prompting Riss to notice the absence of any money.
Oscar, too, rose from his seat, wearing a smug expression on his face.
“You didn't bring any money? Do you plan to use that beautiful lady as collateral? I was considering how to make her mine."
If they hadn't brought any money, Riss wouldn't hand over Norah. That would mean she'd belong to Oscar tonight.
Sean's tone turned cold. "You must be joking. We're here to save her, so we didn't come empty-handed. Phillip."
Phillip promptly retrieved a checkbook from his suit pocket. Sean accepted it, then with a black pen, he filled out a check for thirty million dollars and signed his name.
"Thirty million dollars. You can cash it in at any bank in Otland."
Sean tore the check, pinched it between his index and middle fingers, and presented it to Riss and Oscar.
“If you accept this payment, you must honor our agreement and release us."
Riss was taken aback by the sight of the hefty check in Sean's hand.
Anyone who could issue such a substantial sum without hesitation must hold considerable influence in Otland.
