Chapter 256

Today, very few would dare to kidnap Quinlyn, but Jason just happened to be one of them.

He changed his clothes and loitered at a bank, successfully swindling an old man out of a hundred grand in cash before swaggering off.

As he drove away, he casually waved at the man. “Don’t worry, I’ve got this handled.”

“Okay, thank you so much!” The old man bowed gratefully, completely unaware of what was happening.

Taking a corner, he picked a small eatery and led Quinlyn to a table outside,

“Aren’t you scared?” Quinlyn glanced at the distance between them, thinking it would be easy to get caught.

But Jason waved it off and stuffed a dumpling in his mouth, grinning. “You don’t get it. This is what makes it exciting, and they still have things to sort out.”

Quinlyn joined in, feeling hungry after a bland airplane meal. Halfway through, she noticed a commotion at the bank.

The old man was arguing with a guy, refusing to let him leave, while someone nearby borrowed the shopkeeper’s phone to call the cops, trying to be a good citizen.

Quinlyn finally understood; the target was older folks rushing to handle urgent tasks, easy to deceive.

Then, the scammer jumped in, pretending to be a distressed relative of the old man, and the money changed hands.

While they were eating, the old man, anxious for an update, called him out. The scammer showed up in a panic, clearly frustrated.

“See? I told you I could help him.” Jason smirked, clearly enjoying the unfolding drama.

The police were just a couple of streets over, and a bowl of noodles later, they had the whole story.

The shopkeeper had gossip to share, saying, “Oh, it’s a phone scam. They pretended to be the old man’s grandkids in an accident, needing money to send, but the kids were just fine in school.”

Jason remained unfazed, nodding along. “Exactly.”
