Chapter 313
Following Anastasiaâs instructions, Benny quickly replied to Ashleyâs nagging, âAll set, coming down soon.â
âHurry up, donât get caught.â Ashley reminded him over the phone.
âOkay, okay.â Benny repeated.
Seeing the right moment, Anastasia hung up.
Benny turned to Anastasia and Flynn with a scared face, âIâve done what you guys asked for, can you let us go now?â
Clyde stuttered again, âWe didnât take any money or hurt anyone, and we did everything you asked. Can you let us go now?â
Anastasia stood up, âHold your horses. Thereâs one more thing I need you two brothers to do.â She had a plan in mind.
Flynn asked, âAnastasia, whatâs your next move?â
A determined glint flashed in Anastasiaâs eyes, âI want to see what Ashley is up to. This is the perfect crime evidence. How can I let it slip? Flynn, wrap Clyde in a sheet, you and Benny carry him down and take him to the back alley. If weâre going to play, we hit it big.â
Flynn immediately understood Anastasiaâs intentions. If they could prove that Ashley intended to kidnap Anastasia, Ashley would be toast. He picked up the sedative theyâd found on the brothers earlier, smiled at them and said, âSorry, guys. Then, Flynn injected Clyde with the sedative, leaving just Benny.
Flynn warned, âIf you donât want to end up behind bars, you better cooperate. Iâm going to unwrap the sheet. You get dressed, and weâll carry him down together.â
Benny quickly nodded, âOkay, I promise to cooperate.â
Anastasia waited at the foyer. Flynn untangled the sheet and Benny got dressed. The two then carried Clyde out.
Clyde was tightly wrapped in the sheet, his face hidden. Flynn put on a mask and wore Clydeâs jacket. Thanks to the dim lighting in the back alley, they wouldnât be easily noticed. Anastasia hid around the corner, where a car was indeed waiting, with Ashley inside. She snuck out her phone and started recording.
Ashley saw Benny carrying someone down and wanted to check if it was Anastasia under the sheets, but Flynn shoved the person into the car, saying, âI just saw hotel security on patrol.â
Hearing this, Ashley didnât check any further and hurriedly said, âGet in the car, and take her to Nurture Care Clinic on 10th Drive. Once sheâs delivered, youâll get your full pay.â
After saying this, she got into a Mercedes parked nearby. Someone like Ashley would never ride in a commonerâs car.
Benny and Flynn got into the van, a bit tense, âAre we really going?â
Flynn gave Benny a nudge with his foot, âStart driving. Letâs see what sheâs up to at Nurture Care Clinic.â
Benny started the van, following the Mercedes to Nurture Care Clinic.
Anastasia decided to bow out, leaving the rest to Flynn.
About half an hour later, they arrived at Nurture Care Clinic. Ashley knocked on the door, a middle-aged man opened it and said, âCome in and bring the patient.â
Ashley nodded, then waved at the van, signaling them to come in.
Flynn exchanged a look with Benny, and together they carried the sedated Clyde into the clinic. Under Ashleyâs direction, they put Clyde on a makeshift bed at the
back of the clinic.
From the moment they entered the clinic, Flynn started secretly recording. Ashley and the middle-aged man were talking in another room, separated by half a curtain. Ashley urgently said to the man, âPlease, Sandyâs in a bad way, she needs a bone marrow transplant ASAP. You can take as much marrow as you want from that girl, then get it matched. If itâs a success, schedule the surgery immediately.â
âDonât worry, everything will be fine.â The man said.
