Chapter 138 The Cruel Choice
Finished
Trevor’s eyebrows were furrowed, and his whole body was tense. He gritted his teeth. “Summer has been kidnapped as well.”
Josh said quickly. “First, we have to get Peyton back. You know she just had a heart operation. She can’t handle this kind of
stress.”
Trevor’s voice was deep. The kidnappers said I have to bring 2.5 million dollars to choose one.”
Josh’s eyes darted around. “A choice between two? Can’t we just pay 5 million dollars to get both back?”
I had already asked that.
But the kidnappers refused. They only wanted 2.5 million dollars.
It was absurd–these kidnappers not only wanted money but also wanted me to make a heartbreaking decision.
“So who are you going to choose?” Josh asked.
Trevor clutched his phone tightly and did not answer.
“Peyton is so fragile. She must be scared right now. Summer is stronger and more resilient. Let’s get Peyton back first and then save Summer.
Trevor’s jaw clenched, his expression cold. “Neither of them will be harmed!”
“But the kidnappers want you to choose. If you don’t choose, they might kill both of you. It’s not worth the risk. Trevor, don’t hesitate. Choose Peyton!”
Trevor thought back to the last time Summer was kidnapped.
Back then, I hadn’t believed her and had lost her.
This time, I wouldn’t let her go
But Peyton..
For a moment, he found it incredibly difficult to decide.
Til give them 6 million dollars. I’ll save them both. At the same time, I’ll arrange for guards to protect them from afar.”
Beside him, Josh remained expressionless and sent a recorded message to a number on his phone.
The next day, Trevor and Josh were sitting in a car with a large bag of cash on the back seat.
Following the kidnappers‘ instructions, they drove toward a mountain on the outskirts of the city.
When they arrived at the location, Trevor’s phone buzzed with a message changing the meeting point.
He frowned.
I had arranged for many bodyguards to be stationed here. Changing the location at the last minute would disrupt the plan.
Josh quickly turned the car around and followed the new address.
“The kidnappers are smart. If we can save both of them, great. If not, prioritize Peyton! Do you hear me?”
Chapter 138 The Cruel Choice
One kidnapper led each woman up a narrow mountain path to the edge of the cliff.
Trevor and Josh waited anxiously.
The kidnappers finally appeared with the hostages and walked toward the cliff.
The scarred kidnapper smiled. “Mr. Larson, your beloved wives are here.”

Trevor’s face was pale with anger as he saw the kidnappers holding the two women. He threw the bag of money forward.
“Here’s the money, 6 million dollars. Let them go.”
The kidnapper’s eyes gleamed with greed at the mention of 6 million dollars, but he quickly suppressed it.
“Mr. Larson, we only want 2.5 million. Which one will you choose?”
Trevor’s temple throbbed.
“Aren’t you afraid of dying if you kidnap my women? Let them go, and I won’t pursue this!”
The kidnapper flinched slightly at the threat.
Too much money, and we can’t escape. Choose! If you don’t. I’ll throw them both over the cliff”
Josh shouted from the side.
“Choose Peyton! The one in the dark green dress. Trevor, say something! Can’t you see that Peyton is trembling?”
Peyton’s gag had somehow come loose.
She looked pitiful and fragile, her voice soft and pleading.
“Trevor, I’m so scared. Please save me…”
Meanwhile, Summer’s mouth was still tightly gagged, unable to speak.
This was clearly Peyton’s plant
She was using me as a pawn to solidify their love.
If Trevor chose Peyton, I would surely die.
If he chose me, the kidnappers might still not let me go either.
But I did not want to die!
She stared at Trevor, hoping that his conscience would awaken for once.
Trevor’s arms were tense and his veins were bulging.
Josh urged. “Trevor, there’s no time! Peyton is about to faint! Only you can save her.”
Trevor clenched her teeth, her voice hoarse. “Sum…”
Josh suddenly shouted, “Peyton is pregnant!”
Trevor’s eyes widened in shock, and his body stiffened as if he had heard something unbelievable.
Josh lowered his voice. “It’s your
