I didn’t realize there are conflicts between them.

Lysander pondered for a moment, the idea in her head becoming clearer and clearer. “Write a ransom letter right now and send it to Thorne Constructions and Energies. I am the only daughter of the Thorne family. My parents will agree to it.”

The leader, upon hearing her speak in such detail, visibly wavered in his resolve.

“The Thorne family…” He clearly had a greater desire. “Can the Thorne family immediately produce three million in cash?”

In truth, Lysander lacked confidence, but at that moment, all she could do was nod and say, “Of course.”

The thugs‘ eyes widened in disbelief when they heard the figure of three million. Their leader, in particular, could already envision luxury cars and beautiful women beckoning to him. However, he wasn’t a leader for nothing. He wasn’t completely brainless. Warily, he asked, “What if the Thorne family reports us to the police?”

“If you’re worried, you can take the money first before letting me go. They won’t call the police out of concern for my safety.”

A thug whispered into his ear, “Boss, don’t forget, she’s not just the only daughter of the Thorne family. She’s also Josiah’s woman!”

The leader slapped his forehead. “Then… we can ask Josiah for another three million! That will make it six million in total!”

“Could the Thorne family’s wealth ever compared to that of Josiah? If the Thorne family could come up with three million, then Josiah would surely have to come up with five… No, he’d have to come up with ten million!”

Another one chimed in, “But Josiah is with Ms. Lanister. How are we supposed to ask him for money? If we call him now, Ms. Lanister will definitely find out…”

The leader was so obsessed with money that he completely missed Lysander’s subtle probing. He cursed under his breath, “D*mn it, not a single one of these rich folks is honest. They keep the most valuable stuff for themselves while we, who risk our lives, are left with nothing!”
