Will the Aloof Billionaire Divorce Today?-Chapter 819: Paid to Solve Others’ Troubles

Although she was extremely frightened, so scared that her hands were trembling, she got out of the car less than two minutes after Matthew Saxon did.

If there was danger, she wouldn’t let him face it alone.

She opened the car door, clenched her fists, took a deep breath, and got out of the car.

As soon as she got out of the car, she saw Matthew being surrounded by a dozen people. They were all in black clothes and sunglasses, each with a tall stature, estimated to be over 180 cm, and the two leading figures were holding guns, the cold barrels aimed directly at Matthew’s chest.

This scene of a gun-pointing kidnapping was something Scarlett Yates had only seen in crime thrillers before.

Seeing it live for the first time, it was impossible not to be afraid.

When the cold, black muzzle was aimed at her, Scarlett’s legs went a bit weak.

"Didn’t I tell you to stay put in the car? What are you doing coming out?" Seeing the disobedient woman get out of the car, Matthew’s face changed, glaring at her with a touch of anger, his brows furrowed.

Damn woman.

He had repeatedly instructed her not to get out of the car, to stay put, but she just wouldn’t listen.

Scarlett’s face was pale, without a trace of blood, her dark eyes blinked, clearly carrying a hint of fear, but still stubbornly said, "Why did you leave me alone? What’s the difference between being in the car and out of it? Sooner or later, they’ll drag us out anyway."

Scarlett’s heart pounded rapidly.

Her heart trembled violently, as if it might leap out of her chest at any moment.

The gun aimed at her could take her life at any time.

Seeing her so scared yet still rebelling, Matthew was both angry and helpless.

Such a small courage, yet so disobedient, he really didn’t know what to do with her.

In the dark and secluded outskirts, the two of them were surrounded by people with guns.

Only now did Scarlett understand what it truly meant to call for help in vain.

In this godforsaken place, even shouting till her throat was hoarse would be useless.

The thought of imminent death made Scarlett feel very sorrowful.

Her good life had just begun, and there were so many things she hadn’t done. She didn’t want to die at all.

She was, in fact, very timid; she feared death, especially dying in a painful way.

The idea of dying by gunfire was something she didn’t dare to even imagine.

With a gun pointed at her, she didn’t dare to move, and after standing for a short while, it felt as if all the blood in her body had frozen, with coldness seeping into her body.

The leader glanced at her for a few seconds, then walked forward, pointing the gun at her and Matthew Saxon, and said in a muffled voice, "Mr. Saxon, we need you and your lady to come with us. We’re just doing a job for money, so we ask for your cooperation."

This person spoke very politely, using terms like "please" and "thank you," but the gun in his hand was unambiguously pointed at Matthew’s chest.

In such a situation, who would dare utter a word of defiance?

With so many guns pointed at them, any resistance might result in being shot full of holes the next second.

Understanding the situation is the wise choice.

Even someone as proud and arrogant as Matthew Saxon was extraordinarily cooperative, doing exactly as instructed.

With over ten guns trained on him, he could still manage to smile, curling his lips and saying with a light chuckle, "Since someone has invited me as a guest, I must go take a look. Please, lead the way."
