As Percy listened to Mr. Bennet, he could not help but secretly call Pierre a fool.

It was his only chance to speak to them. Yet, he could not provide any useful information to the Mallory family. He only asked for them to rescue him...

How foolish. How incredibly foolish.

Mr. Bennet noticed the gloomy look on Percy's face and asked in a low voice, “Master Percy, what should we do now?"

"What else can we do? We must save him!" Old Master Mallory firmly took his stance before Percy could say anything.

Although he was disappointed in Pierre for not living up to his potential, he was still his grandson. There was no way he could be so heartless.

"We must save him," said Percy. 30 million dollars was merely pocket change to the Mallory family.

However, the Mallory family's liquid funds were probably not that much.

Percy turned to look at Old Master Mallory and said, "I only have around ten million in liquid assets, including the company's funds, on hand for now."

It would take some time for him to get 30 million dollars. One day's time would not be enough. The kidnappers also requested ten million in cash.

How was it possible for anyone to have that much cash in this modern society where electronic payments were prevalent?

They could head to the bank to withdraw the cash, but a regular bank would not have that much cash readily available. It would also require an advance appointment with them to get that much cash.

Even if they got lucky and the bank was able to prepare the money in time, there was no doubt that their behavior would alarm some of the organizations.

The police were still looking for Pierre.

Their actions would be considered abnormal. The police might suspect that they were helping Pierre escape after they found out about it.

Things would become more complicated if they alerted the police.

The Mallory family had yet to contact the police because they did not want Pierre to be caught by the police after rescuing him.
