But Keenan pressed the barrel of the gun right against her head. "Make another move, and you'll be the first one I shoot! You want to save your daughter, Randall? Sure! But I need to see the money first!" Then, he pointed the gun at me. "Why don't you and Eva chere and take Riva's place? That's fair, isn't it? Eva is Leonard's wife, after all. Not even the police would dare to lay a hand on her. I'd have nothing to fear if I have her withwhen I leave the country! "Eva isn't your flesh and blood, you know? You should know very well who it is you should save, don't you, Randall?" He burst out laughing maniacally again. Rivaella closed her eyes in fear.
Randall shuffled forward on his knees and continued begging in a lowly manner, "Let them go. I am the only one who's able to get the money out. What do you think I've been doing all these years? The secret key is with me, and I'm the primary manager of the fund. Not even Eva is able to access the fund! 'Keenan, the police are out searching for you. You won't be able to get away via regular means. I can smuggle you out! Trust me! I have committed crimes too! I won't be able to stay in the country!" The moment he said that, Keenan's eyes lit up. "That's right! How did I forget that? You falsified accounts back then and lost over hundreds of millions in assets! You need to be put behind bars too!" Randall nodded. "That's why I've contacted people who can smuggleout of the country. Why else do you think you haven't been able to locate me? I returned to the country for over two years to find ways to transfer the fund out! Trust me." Randall was so sincere that Keenan was beginning to waver.

I was about to say something, but Randall shook his head at me.
"The secret key! The secret key is with me. You can have a look if you don't believe me! No one would care who Eva is abroad. So long as we have the money, we can forge everything! Trust me, this money will be ours, and we won't even have to go to jail!" Keenan's gaze flickered. He was tempted.

Randall slowly stood up and raised the USB drive.
"I'll take Riva's place. We'll take the car and drive away. I'm sure the police won't pursue us if the hostage isn't with us.
Riva, I'm your father. You wouldn't wantto end up behind bars, would you? You'll help hold the police back, right?" Randall's hazy eyes seemed to finally light up when he fixed his gaze on Rivaella. She shook her head before nodding furiously. Her tears flowed uncontrollably.
Randall gavea knowing look. Out of the corner of my eyes, I saw the police inching up Toward us. I stood there, unmoving. But I'd already decided that I would save Rivaella at the first opportunity I got. Randall approached Keenan slowly. "I don't want to end up in jail. I'd have exposed you otherwise.
