I Joined My Own Kidnapping Chapter 9
Tristan finally understood.I had no intention of letting him walk away."Sebastian, have you lost your mind?" he screamed hoarsely. "Let me go! We can split Dad's fortune down the middle!"Kill me and your life is over. You think the police won't figure out who did it?"Of course they would.At that point, I no longer cared.Unlike Tristan, I knew there were things worth more than money.I was about to answer when Big Guy woke.He sat up groggily, took a moment to remember where he was, and scrambled away from me. Then he woke Skinny Guy and Girl.All three fixed me with furious, bloodshot eyes."Sebastian Kessler!" Big Guy spat. "You pretended to be Marty because you thought we were easy prey?"Even if we never get the money, even if we die, we're taking you down with us!"I smiled faintly.Then I unzipped the bag and showed them what I'd taken from Tristan's safe."I'm sorry. I lied to all of you."When you first approached me, I thought you were robbers. I pretended

"You got it, right?" Tristan asked the moment I returned.His eyes shone with desperate hope."Now you can let me go. After today, you've got enough dirt on me that I'd never dare cross you again!"But I wasn't finished."Not yet. Tristan, do you remember the worker who died at one of your construction sites thirteen months ago?"He frowned, trying to place the incident."There was something like that, I think.""Then why wasn't his family compensated?""They weren't? I authorized the payment. Zack and his guys might've skimmed it. They gamble, drink, chase women, and pocket money wherever they can. But they're loyal, so I let a lot slide."I dug my nails into my palms."What was that family supposed to do without the money?"Tristan actually laughed."What do you expect them to do? If they're good enough to win in court, I'll pay. If they can't, they can't touch me. Why should I care?"My eyes went cold."Seven months ago, you took a donor kidney that was supposed to go

Tristan's shaking grew worse."S-Sebastian..."Your mother died in a car accident. That's all! They caught the drunk driver. He's still in prison, isn't he?"I didn't believe him.In the second year of that driver's sentence, his entire family had moved overseas.I'd spent years following every lead, only to find each trail deliberately cut off.If the crash had really been an accident, why had the evidence disappeared so completely?I took out the knife and held it where he could see it."Tristan, do you know why I've stayed at the company all these years, letting you humiliate me?"Because I needed to keep an eye on you. I've spent seven years waiting for one chance to find out what happened to my mother."Seven years of insults. Seven years of pretending none of it mattered."I heard the strain in my own voice."I have nightmares every night. I've lived with the grief of my mother's senseless death, and it's twisted me. So go ahead and guess. Is this knife going to end u

Tristan kept staring at me as he shouted.Big Guy, Skinny Guy, and Girl followed his gaze. Then they began muttering among themselves."What's this bastard trying to pull?" Big Guy said. "Does he think we're stupid enough to believe him?"Skinny Guy shook his head. "Beats me. And why would Sebastian say Marty was his brother? There are three guys here, and Marty's the only one who even looks decent."Girl stepped back from me."Who are you really? Marty or Sebastian Kessler?"Something's bothered me from the beginning. When we first talked to Marty online, he sounded like a man who had lost all hope."She swallowed. "But you never did."Then she pointed at Tristan."And you know that guy. You know him way too well."Big Guy and Skinny Guy both sucked in a breath and moved away from me.Skinny Guy fumbled out his phone."No point guessing. We have Marty's number. Let's call him."He pressed the contact.The call connected.My phone didn't ring.Instead, a woman's voice c

A dull thud broke the silence.Tristan staggered but didn't fall. He clutched the back of his head and turned in bewilderment.Skinny Guy hit him again. Only then did Tristan go down.I rushed to help Big Guy and Skinny Guy move him into the van."I'll move his car somewhere out of sight," I said. "Follow me."We concealed the car and made for the abandoned factory.The other three didn't know that the factory had once belonged to my mother.After her death, the world moved on. What she built was left to rot.Now, looking at the collapsed entrance and weeds spreading across the deserted yard, I had to grit my teeth to keep from losing control.My companions were beginning to panic.As Skinny Guy tied Tristan to a metal chair, his hands trembled."They're not going to notice he's missing right away, are they? Guys like him have security. What if someone can track him? What if the cops show up before we even get the money?""You're overthinking it," I interrupted."He spends

On paper, our scheme looked like it could work.But could I really get all three of them safely out of the country afterward?I couldn't promise that.For the first time, I had to admit what I'd been doing.I hadn't been helping them. I'd been using them to trap my stepmother's son, Tristan Kessler, so I could force him to tell me what really happened in the crash that killed my mother.If we gave up now, there was still time. I could help these people rebuild their lives by other means.If we kept going, I had no idea where we'd end up.Under their stunned gazes, I struggled to speak."I'm sor—"Skinny Guy burst out laughing before I could finish."That's a good one! If you're Sebastian Kessler, then I'm the Pope!"Big Guy clapped my shoulder. "Leave it to the college boy to come up with a joke like that."Only Girl seemed to have believed me for a second. Now she pressed a hand to her chest."You scared me to death! I knew Sebastian couldn't be stupid enough to help peop
