Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 692

"The money you want will be here shortly. When it arrives, we exchange the money for the hostages," Ian quickly chimed in, pushing Seraphina to make a rational choice.

Hearing this, Seraphina did relax slightly.

Just one step away.

She was so close to leaving this godforsaken place.

Because of that, she threw another resentful glance at Sebastian, who stood there looking cool and collected.

"I know the only reason you came up here is because you didn't want anything to happen to her. So, I have one last demand. I want you to escort me out. I want you to get on the plane with me. Once I'm somewhere safe, I'll let you and Raelynn go."

Seraphina had no intention of releasing the hostages just because she got the money.

Raelynn was her shield.

Until she was absolutely sure she was safe, she wouldn't lower her guard.

"Fine."

This time, Sebastian agreed without hesitation.

He raised his eyes slightly. In the sky, a helicopter approached from the distance, the roar of its rotors sweeping over them.

A smile of surviving a disaster finally crept onto Seraphina's face.

Sometimes, you just had to risk it all to find a way out.

If she didn't do this, her ending would be rotting away in misery.

She absolutely refused!

"I'll go with you." Sebastian stepped forward again with his long legs. "Let Lily go first."

As he walked slowly toward Seraphina, he locked eyes with Ian. In a split second, the two men understood each other's plans and silently agreed to coordinate.

Sebastian moved forward.

While Ian shifted slightly.

But out of the corner of her eye, she saw Ian sprinting over.

He yanked Raelynn away from the edge of the building, pulling her back to safety.

Seraphina's eyes widened in rage.

She had lost a piece of her leverage.

In a blind panic, she grabbed Lily and quickly stepped onto the edge, but perhaps due to her sheer terror, she completely lost her balance. Terrified of falling off, she desperately tried to save herself.

She forcefully shoved Lily, who she was still holding, out of her hands.

Lily's tiny body hung suspended in the air for a second, her little arms bumping against the ledge before plummeting downward—

"No! Lily!" Raelynn screamed like a madwoman, trying to rush over.

But someone else was faster. With long strides, he leaped forward without a second of hesitation, snatching the falling Lily into his arms.

One large and one small figure instantly plummeted into the abyss...
