"Miss Whitmore, what should we do with these two?" a bodyguard asked. "Should we… take care of them?" He punctuated the question by dragging a thumb across his throat.
The two men, terrified, immediately started begging Evangeline for mercy.
"We've learned our lesson! We'll never do it again!"
"Please, let us go!"
They had figured out that Evangeline was not just some ordinary woman, and these were professional bodyguards who likely weren't making idle threats.
In this remote location, anything could happen to them without a trace.
One of the men started banging his head on the ground in a desperate plea. The other quickly followed suit, the dull thuds echoing in the quiet air.
Evangeline glanced at the bodyguard, who gave her a subtle look. She understood what they were implying.
After a moment's thought, she said, "I can let you go, but you'll have to cooperate and testify about what happened today."
"Yes, of course! We'll cooperate!" one of them cried.
"Just let us live, and we'll do anything you say!" the other promised.
Evangeline took the phone with the recording and had the bodyguards search the men for any weapons. Once she was sure they were clean, she gave her instructions.
