Deep love: insatiable lover

Chapter 406: Hostage exchange



Looking down at her bulging belly, Vanessa’s eyes sparkled with a hint of sadness.

-Would Dylan be sad to know that the baby and I died like this? -Vanessa

Vanessa didn’t know why she was thinking about Dylan at that moment, but once she let her mind free the person she was trying so hard to forget, everything became uncontrollable.

He can’t help but think of Dylan, of her despair and grief at learning that she was pregnant with his child but died with him in an unlucky hostage situation.

I don’t think so.

Dylan had never been a cold and selfish man, and no one’s life was worth more than his own.

Even if he knew everything, he would probably only feel a little sad for a while at most. Eventually, of course, he would forget about them and remain high and mighty.

As for what he had said he liked and loved, Vanessa didn’t believe a word of it.

It was then that Vanessa suddenly heard a voice that could never have been here.

-I will be your hostage.

Vanessa raised her head and stared in disbelief at Dylan’s sudden appearance.

Did I read it wrong?

How can Dylan be here!

At the same time, Dylan looked at Vanessa, his cold face melting as if the frost had melted, revealing a soft smile and a gentle voice to reassure her.

-Vanessa, don’t be afraid, I won’t let them hurt you.

With that, Dylan looked back at the two bandits. Although he had a calm look on his face, he could not hide the worry and anxiety in his eyes.

He did it on purpose.

Deliberately showing the two men how much she cared about Vanessa made it easier for them to relax.

Yes, relaxed, did not agree to an exchange of hostages.

Dylan had guessed the psychology of the two bandits accurately enough to know that once he revealed himself, they would definitely want Dylan as a hostage as well. Because with Dylan, they would have more leverage.

And all Dylan wanted was a little time when the time came.

When the two bandits did not respond for a long time, Dylan’s hands clenched involuntarily as if he was nervous, and his face still had a calm expression. However, it seemed to the bandits that Dylan was playing it cool, after all, his body language expressed that he was anxious and worried.

The two men exchanged glances, seeing the intent in each other’s eyes.

-Who are you?

-I am Dylan Moya, Dylan of the SJ Group. You should have heard of the SJ Group and know how important my status is.

-Dylan, the president of SJ… Humph, your identity is so important, how could you willingly exchange yourself to be our hostage? Do you take us for fools?

-Because it’s my wife you’re holding hostage!

Dylan responded with gritted teeth and a look of suppressed anger.

He pretended to be oblivious and became more confused because he was really worried about Vanessa and feared that something might happen to her.

The two bandits did not think they would be so lucky, as they expected certain death, but instead they were involved in a car accident and had a chance to escape. Even a random hostage was the wife of a big shot, a pregnant woman!

-I promise to be your hostage, and with my identity as president of the SJ Group, you will have more influence. I can guarantee your safety as long as you promise to release my wife immediately if I am a hostage.

Dylan tried to suppress the worry in his eyes, pretending to be calm as he negotiated with the bandits.

The soldier who had been signalled came forward and, with a straight face, blocked Dylan, saying in a cold voice.

-Mr Dylan, please calm down, we will find a way to save your wife! Don’t be impulsive.

-That’s my wife, she’s still carrying my child! How can I be calm when you tell me to be calm?

Dylan growled under his breath, annoyed, the anxiety and worry in his eyes seeming uncontrollable. He was like a trapped animal, bent on getting his wife out of there.

In the eyes of the two bandits, Dylan was out of control, desperate and irrational for his wife and child. Naturally, the situation was advantageous for them, as they could capture Dylan as a hostage.

-But Mr. Dylan, it’s really too risky for you to go there. We’ll…

-Shut up!

Dylan viciously shoved the man who was holding him back and, surprisingly, walked swiftly towards the two bandits with a look of determination to die.

-Mr. Dylan, you must not be impulsive. You…

-No one other than Dylan is allowed to come.

One of the bandits immediately ordered when he saw the SWAT men about to approach.

The other man looked furious and watched as Dylan headed towards the bandits.

-Let my wife go.

Dylan clenched his fists and tried to speak calmly to the bandits.

Vanessa was already dumbfounded, she hadn’t expected Dylan to not only show up here out of the blue, but even offer himself as a hostage!

-Dylan, you’re crazy!

-Don’t be afraid, I won’t let anything happen to you.

Dylan looked at Vanessa with a soft smile and gently reassured her.

-Dylan, go away, I won’t let you be saved! I have nothing to do with you, go away!

Vanessa shouted angrily, she didn’t want to get involved with Dylan any more, let alone let him save her!

Inside her mind was a panic and nervousness that even she did not notice.

“If anything happens to Dylan to save me…”

-Silly, you’re my wife,” Dylan smiled softly, anyone could see the love he felt for Vanessa. Even if you don’t think of yourself, think of our son. He’s still very young and hasn’t had a chance to see the world.

Dylan patiently convinces Vanessa that the kind look in his eyes is not fake, and the bandit concludes that her presence is not a SWAT ruse.

Vanessa, for her part, is desperately repulsed by his arrival, as she is unwilling to allow Dylan to save herself and their fates to become intertwined again. Her behaviour, for the bandits, amounts to a lateral confirmation of their deep affection for each other.

Because they loved each other so much, Dylan had gone so far as to exchange hostages and save his wife, despite the danger and obstacles.

-Does Mr Dylan really want his wife and children to be safe?

-What do you want me to do?

Dylan asked, seemingly calm, as he looked back at the two bandits.

While the two sides were going around in circles, the SWAT side was going ahead with preparations.

-Are the snipers in place?

-The snipers are primed and ready to fire.

The man in charge nodded, frowning and glancing nervously at Dylan’s side.

“I wonder if they have fooled the two wily bandits…. This is a risk, and if they fail…”

The man immediately shook his head, dismissing the thought.C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

“Never fail!”

The one who was in front of the bandits at that time was Dylan, the president of the SJ Group. The other one is actually his wife and his unborn child as well… If anything happens to them, no one here can take responsibility!
