The blond man nodded. Approaching Stella, he remarked, “Such a shame!
Your face is quite lovely.”
Withdrawing a blade, he held it flat against Stella‘s neck.
“Please…” Stella implored, barely able to open her eyes.
“Let me go.
Whatever amount you’re asking for, I can pay.”
“It’s too late for that. I’m out of patience.” Sneering, the man let the blade skim across Stella’s neck, blood oozing out.
“Hold on!” Stella cried out with all the energy she had left.
Annoyance flitted across the man’s eyes.
“What’s it now? Whatever you have to say, it won’t change the outcome.”
He was about to make three hundred million. Killing Stella was his ticket to that fortune.
Wasting no more time, he growled, “Had I known your life was worth so much, I wouldn’t have kept you alive this long.”
He aimed the blade at Stella’s heart.
“If your life is so precious, you deserve a beautiful end.”

“At last, she’s quiet.”
He cleaned his blade and directed his accomplices, “Start the fire and bring the car around. I’ll finish her off and we’ll make a quick exit.”
His two henchmen nodded in agreement and left.
As the man raised his blade to deliver the final blow, his hand was suddenly seized, and his wrist was twisted until it cracked.
Letting out a scream, he dropped the knife.
“Who the hell is there?” he bellowed, just as a foot made contact with his face.
Spitting out a mouthful of blood, he crumpled to the floor.
