What Separates Me and You

Chapter 292 Plot

“Ah!” Sierra screamed as the person yanked her hair and slammed her to the ground, leaving her feeling dizzy.

“Who are you? Why are you coming after me?” Sierra covered her head, tears streaming down her face as she questioned them with a hint of defiance.

The man chuckled. It was too dark for Sierra to see their faces clearly.

“You don’t need to know who we are. I’ll take you to make some money. What are you afraid of?”

“Who cares about your measly money?” Although Sierra was crying, she still retorted angrily. She had so much money that she couldn’t even finish spending them. She had no interest in their paltry sum.

“Hah, how arrogant. It seems like you have a lot of money on you. How about lending us some?” the man said with a smirk.

Sierra took a deep breath, and her voice trembled with nervousness. “How much do you want?

”

“How much do you have?”

“If I give you money, will you let me go?”

The man burst into laughter. “That depends on whether your money is enough to buy your life. Where’s the money? Show it to us.”

Sierra pointed to her bag. “It’s all in there. There’s a card inside with five million dollars. With that much money, you can let me go, right?”

Hearing the mention of five million dollars, the two men froze briefly. They exchanged a knowing glance.

It became clear to them that this woman was indeed wealthy, and that presented a greater problem.

If they let her go, they would be in trouble. They might as well take drastic measures.

The man picked up the bag and rummaged through it. He pulled out a bank card and asked, What’s the password?”

“One to six…”

“If you dare to deceive me, you’re as good as dead,” the man warned and retrieved a sharp dagger.

Staring at the dagger, Sierra nervously gulped. She no longer dared to be arrogant. “No, no,

it’s true. I’m not lying. You can check it yourself. Please let me go, I beg you!” The man laughed. “Let you go? So you can go and report us to the police?”

Sierra shook her head repeatedly. “I won’t report you, I promise!”
