“Let me go! Let me go!”

“What are you idiots waiting for? Let’s scram! lan’s going to be here any minute; you want to stick around and get killed?” The man carrying Maja shouted. He’d been cocky on the phone with lan, but that was all for the two million ransom.

They’d never seen that much money–enough to make them risk it all, even death.
