Chapter 88 You Come Alone
Summer’s words were a bit unpleasant.
However, this was what she thought. Although Karen seemed to be living a rich life with the Jarretts, compared to other rich wives, she was easier to satisfy.
Most of the time, Karen was taking care of Lynn and the others.
Even though 50 million yuan was not a small sum, Lynn could definitely afford it.
However, Lynn might not be willing to pay.
Vicky was obviously angry, but she suppressed her anger and said, “If we were rich, we would certainly be willing to pay. But the problem now is that we don’t have enough money!”
“If you don’t have enough money, then borrow some.” Summer didn’t want to argue with Vicky. She turned to Lynn and called him, “Dad!”
Lynn knitted his brows tightly. “If it is true, I would scrape together the ransom of 50 million yuan anyway. However, I only have two hours. How can I raise so much money?”
To Summer’s surprise, Lynn was willing to lend money.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
“Borrow as much as you can.” Summer flipped through her phone address book.
Only then did she remember that apart from Jessica, she had few friends.
Lynn had already taken out his phone and started to make phone calls.
Summer walked to the side and called Jessica.
Jessica quickly answered the phone, “What’s up? Have you had dinner yet?”
Summer pursed her lips and said, “Jessica, I want to borrow money from you.”
“Sure, how much do you want to borrow?” Jessica was always generous to her. As long as she needed, Jessica would definitely lend it to her.
After all, the matter was very important. Summer could only say, “How much do you have?”
“There are … probably three to four million yuan. I’m not sure. I need to see…” Jessica said as she went to check her savings on her phone.
Halfway through, she suddenly realized something was wrong and asked, “Why do you need so much money? What happened?”
“My mother was kidnapped. They required the ransom of 50 million yuan.”
“Then call the police!”
“We have to redeem her first.” Summer was still worried about Karen, afraid that the kidnappers would kill her.
Actually, Jessica really wanted to say that she should just let her heartless mother die.
But she knew Summer too well. If Summer did not know about this matter, it would be fine. But now that Summer knew about it, she would definitely take care of it to the end.
“Alright, I’ll give you the money.”
“Thank you.”
Behind her, Vicky and Lynn had been paying attention to her movements.
When Vicky heard Summer say “redeem her first”, she revealed a smug smile.
She walked to Lynn’s side and whispered, “I knew she would definitely not ignore our mother.”
Lynn nodded and the two of them smiled tacitly.
…
Seeing that two hours was almost up, they had borrowed less than six million yuan, far from reaching fifty million yuan.
Summer was so worried that she walked back and forth.
Suddenly, Vicky called her, “I remember that you have a black card of the Emersons!”
Summer suddenly turned to look at her.
Vicky continued, “Right now, it’s a matter of life. Whether Mom can be saved alive or not depends on you. We’ve done our best.”
Summer was too anxious just now. She had actually forgotten that she had a black card!
“I’ll go back and get it immediately!” Summer could no longer care about that much. The most urgent matter was to redeem Karen.
At this moment, Lynn said, “We’ll send you back together to get it, and then we’ll go to the trading place.”
The two-hour deadline was almost up. In order to buy time, Summer accepted Lynn’s suggestion.
Soon they returned to Leonardo’s villa.
Before Leonardo and “Douglas” could return, Summer took the black card and came out.
As she walked, she took out her phone and called the police.
When she received the phone call from the kidnapper, she was so nervous that she forgot to call the police.
When Vicky saw her on the phone, she asked nervously, “Who are you calling? Did the kidnapper call you?”
“I’m calling the police.” She wouldn’t let the kidnappers take the 50 million yuan for nothing.
She wanted to save Karen, but she wouldn’t let the kidnappers get the money.
When Vicky heard that she was calling the police, she frozen for a moment. Then she said, “You’d better not to call the police first. Redeem mom first. She must have seen the kidnapper. Then we will call the police and it will be easy to arrest them then.”
“No, I have to call the police first.”
Seeing Summer’s resolute attitude, Vicky built up the courage, snatched her phone and hung up, accusing, “Why are you calling the police in such a hurry? Do you want to kill your own mother? What if the kidnappers find out and kill her? I admit she treated me better than you, but you don’t have to hurt her like this! Anyway, she is the biological mother who gave birth to you and raised you! ”
Vicky’s words were so firm that she almost believed it herself.
“Shut up!” Although Vicky was telling the truth, Summer still found it annoying.
She said that she didn’t care, but Karen was her biological mother after all.
The kidnapper called again.
The kidnapper gave an address and then said, “You’re the only one allowed to come. Once we find a policeman or someone else coming with you, we’ll kill her!”
Lynn and Vicky also heard the kidnapper’s words.
A strange feeling arose in Summer’s heart.
She felt that the kidnappers seemed to have come for her from beginning to end, not even mentioning Lynn.
Did they kidnap Karen because they thought that she was rich as the Mistress of the Emersons?
Although this statement made sense, taking the actions of the kidnapper’s action into consideration, it seemed a little far-fetched.
Vicky was the first to ask her, “Why are you required to go alone?”
“This is not safe.” Lynn said, “You drive Vicky’s car and we’ll follow behind you.”
Lynn and Vicky showed unprecedented enthusiasm and integrity in saving Karen.
Although Summer was surprised, she did not doubt it. After all, Karen had lived with them for more than twenty years.
Then, he asked Summer, “Can you drive?”
Summer curled her lips and sneered, “Yes.”
During her four years in college, she supported herself and took on some brief script-writing jobs. Sometimes she earned more and sometimes less. Apart from the tuition and living expenses, she saved up the money to get a driver’s license.
…
The address the kidnapper gave her was an abandoned garage in the suburbs.
After she located it, she sent the address of the abandoned garage to Jessica in a text message, asking Jessica to help her call the police.
If she rushed over now, she was very likely to be watched by the kidnappers on the road, so she could only ask Jessica to help her call the police.
After the text message was successfully sent, Summer deleted it.
