Chapter 659
Her story seemed fine on the surface, but when examined closely, there were major holes. Sarah began to feel
uneasy and was about to stop.
The little girl immediately looked panicked and avoided Sarah's gaze. She clutched the edge of her shirt tightly
and asked cautiously, "Are you not going to takehanymore?"
Those clear, innocent eyes were enough to make Sarah waver, and indeed, she felt her resolve weakening.
"Sweetie, tellexactly where on the hillside your his," she suddenly asked.
The little girl's eyes darted around nervously. She lowered her gaze for a long time, thinking hard before looking
up with tears in her eyes. "Missy, we're almost there. Look over there where there's smoke rising, that's my
home."
Looking into the distance, Sarah could indeed see a wisp of smoke rising from partway up the hillside. Through
the dense forest, she could only make out a faint white shadow.
It wasn't too far from where they stood, but it wasn't particularly close either.
Sarah looked down and met the little girl's sincere gaze. After a moment's thought, she nodded at the child. "I'll
take you there."
She didn't notice the little girl secretly sighing with relief behind her back.
As they walked through the dense forest, Sarah moved carefully, constantly checking on the little girl to make
sure she didn't fall.
Just as they were about to enter what looked like a yard, a hand suddenly reached out and grabbed Sarah's arm.

The little girl who had led Sarah there ran away as soon as she saw what was happening.
Sarah jerked away violently. She steadied herself against a tree, coughing harshly. "Charlie, it's you again! What
exactly do you want?"
Charlie looked at her with a sinister smile and said softly, "Should | call you genuinely stupid or just pretending to
be? Can't you see what | want? Did you think | went through all this trouble to lure you out here just to play
games?"
Sarah's gaze grew colder. "So what exactly are you planning?"
"You demanded six million from me, and | can't pay it. So | had to take a gamble," Charlie said coldly.
Sarah scoffed. "You can't possibly think that kidnappingand extorting money means the Sanders company
won't hold you responsible?"
"Miss Sanders, is that all you can
think of? Do you really believe I'd be
that stupid? Rather than getting sych

"Charlie, if you kidnap me, Sanders Corp won't let you go. Even if you try to escape immediately, my cousin and
his people will catch you in the next second."
Sarah's eyes were full of confidence. She knew that once this happened, there would never be a peaceful
resolution. The chance she had given him disappeared the moment he decided to act.
"Stop the big talk. Don't forget you're alone now. | just need to make one move, and you'll have no way to
resist." He edged closer to Sarah as he spoke.

"Why are you here?" Sarah asked in shock. She never expected Zachary to be the one helping her. How did he
