The Barrister's Love in Town

Chapter 37 I’ll Save You

In a groggy state, Amanda opened her eyes and realized she was in an abandoned building. Everything around her was a mess.

Not only was she tied up, but her mouth was also covered with duct tape. She couldn’t think straight.

Suddenly, she heard her terrible father talking to the kidnappers.

“Are you sure your son-in-law is wealthy enough to get 400,000 in cash in a short time? If you dare lie to us, we won’t let you off the hook!”

The thug pretended to hit him. A terrified Dick hunched his back and covered his head. “I wouldn’t dare lie to you. My son-in-law is rich. He paid off my debts for me in the past.”

“I’ll be waiting for him to send us the money, then. If we don’t receive the money by today, we’ll cripple all of you,” threatened the thug with a hideous expression.

Amanda glowered at Dick, wondering why such a jerk even existed in this world.

He dumped his family when he was young and now that he was older, he kidnapped his daughter and demanded money from her ex-husband. There was no doubt he was shameless.

Just then. Amanda’s phone rang again.

She couldn’t help but make some noise to attract their attention. However, the thug ignored her. and picked up the call.

“How is it? Have you gotten the money ready? What? You want to hear your wife’s voice, huh? you worried we’ve already killed her, Mr. Winters?”

The thug took a look at the woman in the corner and went over impatiently. “Don’t say any nonsense. Otherwise, even if your husband gives us the money, we’ll still kill you.”

Then, he removed the duct tape from her mouth and placed the phone beside her ear.

The man’s familiar voice was heard over the phone. “Say something, Amanda. Are you all right? Are you injured?”

For some reason, when Amanda heard the man’s voice, she couldn’t stop her tears from streaming down her face.
