Clever Men
Graham’s worries were not unfounded. James frowned at his words. “I think there’s a tiny possibility of
that happening, so we can’t rule it out. Why don’t we ask them right away?” Then, he kicked the table
beside him, and it toppled over.
The huge crash attracted the attention of those who were standing guard outside. Someone entered
the room—it was the blond man, the same one that had attacked Jenny.
“Wow! What do you want, gentlemen? You don’t act like prisoners, do you?” He was pissed when he
detected no hint of fear on Graham and James’ faces.
James ignored his smirk and asked, “What do you want?”
The blond man was stunned by James’ boldness. Then, he chuckled and said, “You two are clever
men.” He didn’t abduct them for no good reason. If he had followed the instructions of the Glasses, he
would have killed off the two hostages instead of going through the trouble of hiding them.
James scoffed, thinking, “Isn’t that obvious? I don’t even need to guess.”
“I bet you know who’s behind all this. Had I strictly followed their orders, you’d both be dead by now,”
the blond man went on, but he saw no fear in Graham or James. He added, “The Glasses offered us
300 million dollars to take your lives. It’s up to you how much you’re willing to offer us to save
yourselves.”
James frowned. “Aren’t you worried that your international reputation would be ruined if you take
advantage of both sides?” Jenny had told him that the mercenaries refused her offer to pay them in
exchange for her life during her assassination attempt. Why did they change their tone now?
“We would have feared the Glasses in the past because of their influence. But now…” He chuckled. “I
have you to thank.”
If the Walters and the Windsors didn’t crush the Glasses, the blond man wouldn’t have had the guts to
pull off such a sly trick. And he never planned to release Graham and James in the first place-he
planned to take their money and lives.
The mercenaries had not had a good time of late. They were in constant hiding from being hunted by
Graham and James. On top of that, they had to run away from Clusia’s police. Even if they received
their pay, they had to figure out a way to exit Clusia, which would be a massive headache.
With that in mind, the blond man was adamant about not letting Graham and James go. No matter
what, he had to make a quick buck out of them to make up for their losses before.
“How much do you want?” James asked. He was willing to pay any price for his life as it was more
valuable than money. He was also worried by the sight of Graham’s wounded leg. “If you want our
money, you have to at least keep us alive, right? Stop Mr. Walter’s bleeding now. You won’t see a
single dime if anything happens to him.”
The blond man stared at Graham’s wound and agreed, “No problem.” He ordered one of his men to
stop the bleeding. One could not help but be amazed by the plethora of talents under the blond man.
The man bandaged Graham’s wound fast, but Graham had to wait until he was sent to the hospital to
get the bullet removed.
“I will need 300 million dollars from each of you. A fair price, right? You’re both filthy rich anyway,” the
blond man negotiated. Even though it was a dangerous mission, he was rewarded with equally
handsome pay. If Graham and James paid up, adding the Glasses’ money, that would be a grand total
of 900 million dollars. The group of mercenaries might as well retire after the lucrative deal.
