Chapter 8 Changes
Just when Eric was about to call back the phone number he had received in the past, the phone rang.
Eric pressed the speakerphone and heard the familiar kidnapper's voice.
"Hey, Eric."
"It's me. I'm Eric. Where is my daughter? The money has been handed over to you. Why hasn't my daughter come back yet?"
"Ah, I was just about to tell you that something happened and I didn't have enough money, so I have to get another fifty thousand yuan."
"What?, Didn't you agree on one hundred thousand?"
"It's not enough if I say it's not enough. You rich people, it won't be a problem to get another hundred thousand yuan. Just prepare fifty thousand yuan and wait until I notify you."
Eric was already furious at the kidnapper's call.
How can you do this?
I actually regretted my promise.
It's so shameless.
He was so angry that he was speechless.
Rachel: "Wait a minute. We can prepare the money, but this time we have to hand over the money with one hand and hand it over to the other person. I won't give the money until I see my daughter."
"Okay, wait for my call tomorrow at noon."
The kidnapper hung up the phone.
Eric: "Rachel, Jason, how could this happen? Are they still human? What they say doesn't mean what they say."
Jason: "They're not people, they're robbers."
Eric: "How about we call the police."
Jason: "You can't call the police. Canola is still in their hands, and the police have no ability to catch them. I followed you secretly today. I saw the man driving the car. I recognized him. He was a member of the Zetas gang.
"
Rachel knows that the Zetas are the largest gang in the area, and even the police can't do anything to them. If they anger them, what will Canola do?
Rachel: "We can't call the police. This time we agreed to hand over the money in one hand and hand it over to the people in the other. We can't give it to them easily anymore."
Eric: "But where do we have money, and it's still 50,000? Even if we sell the clothing store, we won't be able to get enough."
Rachel: "I'll take care of the money. Eric, you go and take a rest. Jason, you can go back too. Thank you very much for today."
Jason: "Rachel, you really have a way to get the money."
"Well, I have an idea."
Jason had to leave, but he said he would come back tomorrow.
Eric fell limply on the sofa.
From yesterday to now, he has not finished drinking, and has been worried. He finally hoped that his wife would come back, thinking that his daughter could be redeemed, but unexpectedly, it was all in vain.
He feels powerless and helpless now.
A grown man huddled there like a child.
He is an honest and honest man. His wife opened the clothing store first and then handed it over to him to manage. He usually has no other skills besides guarding the store and taking care of his two daughters. They are an ordinary family and they don't mess with anyone. Why?
Things like this will happen.
Rachel felt very sad and wanted to beat up the kidnappers, but...
She forced herself to hug Eric and comfort him: "Canola will be fine, she will come back, I promise."
With her comfort, Eric fell asleep.
Rachel got up and went outside to make a phone call.
Now, she can only call Mr. Kevin again and ask him to borrow money.
She worked as a maid in Mr. Kevin's house for several years, but Mr. and Mrs. Kevin did not treat her as a maid, but as a friend or daughter. Mrs. Kevin liked Canola very much and suggested giving her as a gift.
She went to Texas to go to college, but Rachel didn't agree. It was rare for a servant to find a good employer. The old man and the old lady were too kind to her. She couldn't let Canola cause trouble to them anymore. People must know how to be satisfied.
So Canola went to college there.
But now, Rachel has to trouble Mr. Kevin again.
Because among the people she knew, only Mr. Kevin had the ability to lend her 50,000 yuan. For the sake of her daughter Canola, she could only make this call shamelessly.
As a mother, she had no choice.
