Chapter 1643 Unbelievable
When it was about time, Margot left her apartment in the evening just as Benjamin had finished school. The area was sparsely populated, mainly by elderly residents who moved at a leisurely pace.
Margot carried a bag of trash downstairs. Just as she threw the trash into the bin, she heard hurried footsteps behind her.
She turned slowly. The next moment, Anthony and another man appeared, pinning down the person who had tried to kidnap her.
Margot glanced at the unfamiliar man. "Who are you?"
The man replied coldly, "My name is Jake. Mr. Lynch sent me to protect you."
Jake? Mr. Lynch? As in, Sebastian Lynch?
Sebastian sent someone to protect her?
Margot stared at the man in shock. "You ... He … Why would he send someone to protect me? Hey! Listen closely! I'm not close with him!"
Jake sighed. "It was Mr. Inkling who asked Mr. Lynch to send someone to protect you."
Jake wondered about Margot's thoughts.
The man who was pinned to the ground hissed, "Hey! Remember me? I'm still here. Are you just going to talk forever?"
Margot finally breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the man on the ground. "Who are you? Why did you approach me?"
The man's face was distorted from being pressed to the ground. "I ... I was also taking out the trash. Why would I approach you? Who do you think you are?"
Margot chuckled. "Then where's your trash?"
The man swallowed hard, realizing he had forgotten to bring the trash. He had never expected that there would be two bodyguards protecting Margot.
The man felt wronged. "I give up. Please don't beat me up. Someone paid me to kidnap you and take you to a hotel."
Margot nodded knowingly. "I'll pay you double the price. Please kidnap the other person and take them to the hotel instead. How about that?"
The man immediately looked at her in disbelief. "Are you sure? The other person gave me fifty thousand dollars. So you'll have to give me a hundred thousand dollars. Are you really going to pay me that much?"
Margot nodded. "I'm serious."
Margot sneered to herself. In her previous life, the kidnappers always demanded at least a few hundred thousand dollars to get the job done.
But in this life, they only demanded fifty thousand dollars. Was she not worth that much?
"Alright, I'll do it!" The man nodded immediately.
Margot said, "Anthony, Jake, let him go."
Anthony and Jake both let go and swiftly retreated into the surroundings.
The man stood up and brushed off the dirt from his clothes. Margot took a closer look and saw how handsome the man was.
Margot couldn't help but ask, "You could have made a living with your looks alone. Why did you choose this line of work?"
The man was stunned and touched his face. "Really? Can I really make a living with my looks?"
Apparently, the man wasn't the brightest bulb in the box.
Margot nodded. "Yes, you'll definitely become a star if you enter the entertainment industry!"
The man immediately burst into laughter, flashing a set of bright teeth. "Alright, I'll enter the entertainment industry after finishing this job!"
Margot fell silent. She didn't know what to say.
The man waved his hand. "Give me your contact information, and I'll contact you after I've completed this job."
"Okay." Margot gave him her phone number and watched as he walked away.
It was unbelievable.
Just then, her phone rang. She pulled it out and saw it was a call from the man earlier. When they exchanged numbers, he had mentioned his name was Cole.
She thought that it was a pretty good name.
