Melody was livid. She was disgusted with what Wendy had said, but in the end, she still nodded at the men.
"Yes, I know. But rest assured I'll make good on my word. You have essentially fulfilled my two requests. I can transfer the full payment to you now, so just let her go." Wendy's ears perked up, and she asked defiantly, "Just wow much is she paying you that you'll turn on me like this? What a bunch of losers..."
The blonde could not stand her anymore, so he slapped her.
"You can't even come up with a few hundred thousand dollars, yet you dare to mock Melody?"
Wendy was frightened by the slap but managed to keep her emotions in check. She feared that she would try to escape if she did not.
"Melody's giving us three million dollars! She's not a miser like you! No wonder you couldn't become popular! I won't be surprised if you stay a D-list actress forever!"
"Huh! Who do you think you are?! What do you know? What right do you have to speak to me like that, you shameless piece of sh*t?! You're just a simp who doesn't even know what loyalty is even if it hits you in the face," shouted Wendy agitatedly.
Wendy was no longer their employer, so the thugs could do whatever they wanted to her. The blonde would not possibly tolerate such an attitude, so he slapped her with every strength in his body, which sent her sprawling to the ground.
Wendy groaned painfully. "Ah! You bunch of lunatics... How dare you slap me! You're all going to pay for this once I get out!"
Even in such a miserable state, Wendy remained defiant.
Melody, on the one hand, was concerned about when Lucas would appear and feared the thugs would discover she did not have the money. She was entirely drowning in anxiety and restlessness.
"That's enough. There's no need to get so worked up about her. After all, we wouldn't have gotten the huge bounty Melody offered us if it weren't for Wendy."
The guy with the buzzcut sneered. "Maybe today is the highlight of this woman's life. I bet she's secretly happy to know that her life is worth three million dollars."
Wendy had not expected Melody to offer such a high price to have her captured. 'Where did Melody get so much money? She already gave three million dollars to us last time, and now she still has another three million?'
"Pah! You idiots believe this woman? She was penniless when she was kicked out of our family! Instead of hoping for her to give you that three million dollars, it's better to take my fifty thousand dollars and leave. Huh! I'm only telling you this because I don't want you to be cheated by her!"
There was a trickle of blood coming out of the corner of Wendy's mouth. She really looked down on the thugs who had raised their prices unreasonably.
