In just a heartbeat, the same number buzzed again on her phone. "Hello?" she answered, her voice a mix of curiosity and anxiety.

"Are you Casper's wife? You better hurry and bring the cash to free someone. Show up late, and they might not be all in one piece."

The voice was cold and threatening, sending a shiver down her spine.

She was completely bewildered. Just as she was about to ask questions, Caroline's familiar voice cut through the chaos from the other end, "Why are you calling her?

"Let me make this clear, no tricks. Debts need paying, plain and simple. $300,000, and you've got two hours."
