She Got A Better Man

Chapter 288

Cole was deeply worried about Elvira's safety. He was the one who had brought her along, and if something happened to her, he would never forgive himself.

He also suspected that one of the flight attendants might be an accomplice of the hijackers. After all, with so many firearms on board, it was hard to believe they had gotten past security without inside help.

Not knowing which person was the mole made the situation even more dangerous.

As time passed, the tension onboard increased. Suddenly, there was chaos in the back of the plane, followed by the sound of gunfire and screams. Then, everything went eerily quiet. Elvira guessed that one of the passengers had likely broken down and was shot. A wave of intense disgust rose within her. These hijackers deserved to die.

But for now, there was nothing she could do but watch as they continued their crimes.

Hijackings were a major international incident, and governments around the world took them very seriously. After flying to a more remote part of the ocean, the hijackers finally began communicating with the ground tower to state their demands.

The hijackers were in the first class section, so Cole and Elvira could hear the conversation. Their demand was simple. They wanted the release of a politician in Wusma.

That politician had been arrested for smuggling arms, embezzlement, and sheltering drug dealers. It was this politician's escape that had triggered the hijacking.

The hijackers had one demand, release the politician, or they would begin killing hostages.

At noon, they demanded the politician be delivered to a designated location. If their demand wasn't met, they would kill one passenger every ten minutes.
