A Life Beyond Limits novel Chapter 1073

Stacks of crisp hundred-dollar bills, totaling well over 100 to 200 thousand dollars lay spread out before the workers. Their hearts pounded in their chests.

The quick-witted worker swallowed hard and asked, "S-Sir... can I... touch the money?"

"Go ahead." Devin nodded.

To these men, who'd never seen this kind of cash before, it was a fortune. But to Devin, it was nothing more than spare change. He wasn't worried they'd run off with it. In fact, letting them feel the money would only fuel their greed and drive them to take the job.

The quick-witted worker ran his hands over the bills, his body trembling with excitement. "This… This is real money, right? Is it all real? I've never seen so much cash in one place."

The others watched Devin with a mix of awe and suspicion. One finally asked cautiously, "Sir, you're not asking us to kidnap someone, are you?"

Devin took a long drag from his cigarette. "Yes. That's exactly the job. Don't worry. Someone will be there to back you up. And I guarantee, once it's done, 50 thousand dollars will be wired straight into each of your accounts. If you're willing, I can even help you get passports and send you overseas."

"How do we know we can trust you?" the quick-witted worker whispered, carefully setting the money back down.

Devin replied, "That's easy. You keep the money now. After dark, bring the person to the drop-off point where I can see them. The 50 thousand cash is yours on the spot."

He wasn't worried about them running. To him, they were just a disorganized bunch.

The workers stared at the stacks of cash on the ground, clearly wrestling with their doubts and fears.

After a long pause, an honest-looking man finally spoke up. "I'm all in. I've worked myself to the bone for decades and never made this kind of money. Once this job's done, I'm going back home to build a house and never come back."

"I'm in too," another chimed in.

The quick-witted worker hugged the bag of money tightly. The others hesitated, but when they saw him clutching the cash like that, panic set in.
