Jalen felt that what Elaina said made sense, so he was not in a hurry to deal with them. He decided to wait and see.
The two hijackers seemed to have a dispute. The one called Damaris looked very excited.
“Didn’t we agree to let them d*e with us? Why do you want to go back on your words?” Damaris questioned with her eyes reddened, almost aiming the gun at the man.
Just as Elaina had guessed, the man was indeed the observer on this plane, Mervin Emmett.
Mervin felt helpless when he saw that Damaris was so excited. He comforted her, “I won’t break my word. I promised to d*e with you. Naturally, I will do it.
“But I still have parents. I have to leave some money for them before I d*e, right?”
Damaris was silent. Seeing this, Mervin continued to comfort her, “As long as I get the money, I will immediately fly the plane to Mount Elbert and let these people d*e with us. I swear.”
Damaris looked at him and finally could only choose to believe him. She had to trust him in this case.
Mervin was very satisfied and told her, “Keep an eye on these people. Tell them that as long as the New York government pays the money, we will not do anything to them.”
The reason why he said this was to give these passengers a glimmer of hope. After all, if these people resisted, even if they had guns, it would be difficult to deal with.
“OK. I got this.” She knew that Mervin was going to contact the New York government. Now, she could only pray that he could get the money and then take them down to h*ll by plane.
To her, death was the final destination.
Mervin left and went to the pilot cabin. Damaris told everyone what she said.
As expected, everyone became quiet.
They believed that the government would not ignore them, so they were still full of hope at this moment. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
Only Elaina and Jalen, who were in the front row, heard their conversation. Elaina and Jalen knew that even if they really got the money, they would definitely not let others go.
At this time, they could not be sitting ducks..
Elaina had already got up and was ready to approach Damaris. She would first subdue Damaris and then deal with the man in the pilot cabin.
As soon as she moved, Jalen stopped her. “I’ll do it,” he said.
In such a dangerous situation, of course, he would not watch Elaina take the risk. Or he wouldn’t feel like a real man.
Without waiting for Elaina to answer, Jalen had already moved his body. When Damaris was not paying attention, he suddenly rushed over and pressed her down. He quickly grabbed the gun in her hand and blocked her mo*th in time.
Just as the passengers were about to scream, Elaina got up and made a shushing gesture to the crowd. Everyone could only cover their mouths to prevent their screams.
Elaina found a rope, tied Damaris tightly, and sealed her mo*th. Then, she and Jalen quietly sneaked to the pilot cabin.
“80 million dollars for the lives of the people on this plane. It should be a sweet deal, right?”
Voices came from inside. It seemed that Mervin was negotiating with the New York government.
“Transfer the money to the account as I said. If you don’t do it within ten minutes, I’ll k*ll these people.”
He said fiercely and then hung up.
He was very confident that the government would definitely agree. After all, there were hundreds of lives on the plane, and those officials did not dare to disagree.
Thinking that he was about to get 80 million dollars, Mervin was in a very good mood. He did not think that something would happen to Damaris.
In his view, the passengers on the plane were all timid, and no one dared to make a move.
“Wait at the door.” Jalen stopped Elaina and prepared to rush in to deal with Mervin.
